5 Smart Ways To Make Your Studio Apartment Look Bigger

By bringing the outdoors in, adding earthy colours as well as some new multi-functional pieces of furniture, you can effortlessly make your space seem roomier.

City lovers often turn to small compact studio apartments, those ‘self-contained’ stylish living spaces that offer affordability and flexibility, to be able to enjoy the exciting lifestyle metropolises offer.

Shop for multi-functional furniture

Constraints of space may limit what you can buy, but there is a lot of furniture out there that is cleverly designed to have several purposes, something you should use to your advantage.

Having furniture that suits the space in your home will allow you to convert a living space into a dining one or add a workstation to the room, offering accessibility, comfort and purpose.

“Invest in multi-functional furniture pieces, like for example, a table that can function as a desk and dining table, a sofa bed that is ready to be used when we can finally have guests over, or ottoman storage that can be used as a coffee table and extra seats,” the Inchbald School of Design trained Dorsch says. “Big furniture pieces like beds take a lot of space, but having a storage bed can be very useful.”

With a lot of us working from home now, investing in a statement piece of furniture that can also operate as a desk, like a bookcase dropdown desk, is a great way of taking advantage of space.
