Interesting design ideas for small apartments

Owners of small apartments at home always have something interesting and unusual. The lack of square meters makes people come up with extraordinary solutions that can become original decorations. Let’s visit the owners of small studio apartments.

Combining all rooms in one space is a good solution in terms of saving usable space

Original layout

In studio apartments, the layout is always inspiring. New houses are now being built with high ceilings. Therefore, people often make a sleeping place under the ceiling. One common room, combined with a living room, definitely requires zoning. A niche in the ceiling is an ideal solution. Instead of a ladder, steps are made, and they also have niches for bedside tables.

A bed under the ceiling significantly saves space in a small apartment

The ladder must be reliable and comfortable

A study can be organized under the bed

Kitchen in the hall

In a studio apartment, it is not necessary to allocate a separate room for the kitchen. It is enough to install all the necessary household appliances against one wall. The dining table is folding. For example, which is hiding in the coffee table. In order not to interfere with sleep when cooking, the berth is made in a niche right behind the kitchen. Additionally, it is enclosed by sliding doors. Don’t forget to take care of the lighting.

Below are photos of such an interesting option..

The kitchen is housed in built-in wardrobes along one wall

The dimensions of the sleeping area are small, therefore, instead of a bed, a podium was made in a niche, on which a mattress was laid

The main decorative accent of the interior is bronze balls, visually dividing the room into functional zones

Bathroom with shower

Imaginary wall

Another original design option for the interior decoration of the apartment. Studio zoning is done with imaginary walls. For example, the kitchen and living room are delimited by a wooden structure. The bar counter is also ideal for such a solution. The photo shows examples of interesting studio designs.

“Cubic” cabinet

The problem of zoning an apartment can be solved by a cube-shaped wardrobe. The open part of the cube that goes out is made for books, decor items, as well as clothes. A sleeping space is organized upstairs. And inside the cube there is a place for a personal account, in which it is very convenient to deal with long-term projects. No one will disturb you here.

The stairs to the mezzanine with a bed can be made directly along the bookshelves

And inside the cube there is a bathroom.

Podium

Organizing a podium is an excellent method of delineating space. The space under the podium is used for wardrobes for bed linen and clothes. Also, a pull-out bed fits perfectly here..

Consider the option of organizing a transition platform near the wall along the second tier. A wardrobe with shelves for storing clothes must be arranged under the site. Open shelves will look great along the wall of the second tier. Various decorative elements for decorating the room are placed on them. Check out a selection of photos compiled especially for you.

Three in one

Compact, multifunctional furniture is what you need for a studio apartment. One corner of the room space is used to the maximum. A sleeping place is assembled from OSB slabs. It is placed against a wall with a window. At the head of the bed, a blind partition is assembled from the same slabs. The bed itself is on the podium. Directly behind the partition is a desktop with open shelves for storing books and other utensils. The open part of the bed is equipped with a comfortable sofa below, under which the remaining space is organized for wardrobes. The wall that is right next to the bed can also be made with a wardrobe space..

Multifunctional complex assembled from separate small modules

Instead of a desktop, you can make a kitchen corner. Open shelves are ideal for storing wine bottles. Niches in the walls will serve as a place for installing a microwave oven, an oven, and a mini-bar refrigerator.

An interesting solution would be a folding bed, which provides a comfortable place to sleep at night.

And during the day, allowing you to save free space

Glass

Glass partitions will do an excellent job with zoning, and at the same time leave the effect of an open studio apartment. The original design of this extraordinary solution is shown in the photographs. You can even equip partitions with doors. You will get separate rooms in a common room. If you have the opportunity to equip the apartment with large wide windows, then this is a big plus. Together with the internal glazing of the zones, the natural rays of the sun will bring the design of the apartment a feeling of cleanliness and freshness..
