Small spool but precious! Or 5 cool ideas for organizing storage space in a tiny apartment

Do you periodically have a desire to expand your home? But after the opening of a newspaper with advertisements for the sale of apartments, this need disappears? Do not give up ahead of time! After all, even with a small apartment you can and even need to "work"!

Good afternoon dear friends!

The main thing is to creatively approach the solution of the problem, try to use the design features of the apartment and correctly dispose of the square meters you have. And as a result, you will not only increase the living space, but also make your life much more comfortable. A how to do it and what design best practices you will have to use, I will tell you in this material.

By the way, this problem exists not only among the owners of studio apartments and single-family apartments, but also among the owners of large apartments. Therefore, some of the solutions below will be of interest to them too!

1.Multifunctional partition. Puzzling over how to aesthetically and functionally separate the sleeping area from the living room in your small studio apartment? No problem! There are tons of solutions, and one of them is a modular partition from floor to ceiling. Which consists of several shallow vertical elements, including: closed and open storage systems, decorative canvas and a sliding door.

Thanks to such a dividing "wall" you not only stylishly zone the space of your apartment, but also use the entire height of the room extremely effectively. Since inside the wall elements you can store home textiles, things, books and souvenirs, and a TV. Which can be hidden from prying eyes behind a sliding door.

2.Recessed entrance. In most cases, the space near the door is practically not used - a shoe rack or a wardrobe for outerwear is placed near it. But keep in mind: this option has a more practical solution - recessed niches.

They take up the entire height of the room on either side of the front door and the space above it, thereby adding enough places for placing all kinds of storage systems: shelves, drawers, baskets, hooks and hangers under the top clothes. And so that the contents are not striking and look quite dignified, the niches can be hidden with thick curtains. Both stylish and practical, isn't it?

3.Storage system under the windowsill. In a small apartment, you should not neglect any space, especially under the window! Where there is often a single heating radiator, despite the fact that the width and depth of the window sill allow you to place a fairly large number of household items. If you install a hidden storage system there.

At the same time, you don't need much: a couple of shelves and sliding doors. That's the whole storage system that can add not only space to your apartment, but also a fashionable decorative touch to the window.

4.Universal kitchen unit. Whatever area your studio apartment would be, be it 20 or 50 sq.m., you cannot do without a kitchen. And if so, why not divide the space in it with an L-shaped partition with plasterboard niches?! Which will solve three problems at once: provide zoning (entrance / living room / kitchen), organize a mini-kitchen and create additional space for storing your belongings and decorative accessories.

In addition, this element of the interior will give you the opportunity to abandon unnecessary pieces of furniture: a wardrobe for outerwear, a TV bedside table, etc. Since he himself can easily cope with this task! Which is extremely important in a tiny apartment.

5.Practical seating area. How do you look at replacing one bulky sofa with modular furniture (consisting of vertical and horizontal "wardrobes") and a pull-out transforming bed? Do you think this is impractical? But in vain! During the day, the folded bed and wardrobes act as a single stylish element of the interior, allowing you to store a huge amount of things.

At night, by opening the transforming bed, you get a full-fledged royal bed with a functional headboard in the form of horizontal wall cabinets.
