Living in
large urban centers is challenging. One of them is the need to adapt to spaces with reduced footage.
Small apartments are increasingly common, and they show that less is more. A few
decorating tricks are more than enough to make the most of your space. Every corner is important and should be thought of strategically. Check out some creative ideas below:
Stools in the kitchen

An alternative for those who have little space in the dining room, stools placed on the kitchen island help to create extra seating for receiving guests and also add a lot of style to the environment.

Integrating the
indoor and outdoor environments is a way to bring more depth to the space. In addition, large windows or doors improve circulation and the entry of
natural light .
Sofa just the right size
Small living rooms require a lot of care to ensure that the
decor doesn't look heavy and impractical. The sofa is usually a major offender. For this reason, it's important to opt for a more compact model, preferably curved, that adapts well to the space and doesn't hinder circulation.
Open furniture

Openwork furniture offers all the practicality a home needs and can be used for different purposes, but with the advantage of bringing a more creative look and a feeling of spaciousness.

Custom furniture helps create personalized solutions according to the available space. When it comes to a small apartment, it is essential to have this type of furniture to bring functionality and beauty. In the photo of the apartment above,

a dressing table, desk, bookshelf and cabinets .
