How the right furniture arrangement can maximize a small space.Interior designer Michael Bargo went big with his 475 square foot studio apartment, packing a maximum of furniture into strategic vignettes— including a bed smack-dab in the middle.
Create a furniture plan that works with your space. A small rental apartment doesn't have to be glorified a dorm room: An elongated sofa, a pair of neutral slipper chairs, and elegant floor-to-ceiling drapes create an urbane feel.
Strategic furniture creates distinct rooms; open bookshelves divide the space without blocking light.
Custom bookshelves frame a doorway, setting up this small apartment's rectangular motif while adding extra storage. A unified color scheme—in this case, black-and-white—makes a small space feel considered.
Tori Mellott, transformed her 450 square foot apartment into a neutral haven without skimping on her over-the-top style. Farrow & Ball wide-striped wallpaper helps emphasize the high ceilings, glossy white floors bounce tons of sun around and make the room feel airy, and a big mirror and hanging lamp further the illusion of expansiveness.
