Just because you live small, doesn’t mean you can’t have it all. With a little planning and clever thinking, you can organise a living space to cater for all your needs – including have a place to eat, sleep, chill and socialise! In this 26 metres square / 279 ft sq apartment in Stockholm, the owners have capitalised on ceiling height to create their own two-floor apartment – or put more simply, a loft bed!
The raised solution helps to separate the living and sleep quarters and creates a cosy nook beneath in which to catch up with friends, unwind or scroll through Netflix (have you seen The Perfect Couple with Nicole Kidman? Per and I whipped our way through it in two days, it’s such a great series!).
While we can’t all benefit from towering ceilings, it’s great to think about how you can carve out zones in your own home – even if it means a subtle transformation of an area from day to night. And also, how to ensure space for everything without it becoming too cluttered. Here, raised bookshelves and the use of a curtains to cover the wardrobe ensures a calm feel without compromising on your belongings!

The outdoor space almost doubles the living area in summertime – the owner has once again made maximum use of it, carving it up into a little dining spot and sitting room area.
A lovely little home, don’t you think?
Is there anything you spotted or felt particularly inspired by?
Would you like to feel inspired by other small homes today? Why not have a scroll through the small spaces archive? This home could pop up first – if so, just hop over. You might also love this Swedish cabin in the wood on wheels and the world’s smallest luxury home.
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments these past few days, it has been so heartwarming! I wish I was more technical so I could find out how to make it easier to comment under a name (I’ve noticed not everyone is able to) – but alas, I have no idea how! Even so, I love reading each and every one of your comments, they add so much to each post!
Happy Wednesday!
