When designing the layout of a one-bedroom apartment, there is not copious amounts of space to play with, but you aren't dealing with a totally open studio apartment either. I moved from a studio into a one-bedroom apartment not so long ago and I couldn't wait for the novelty of walls, separate spaces, and some privacy. But actually, I did find I missed the openness of a studio, all the light and easy flow between spaces.
But when decorating an apartment, you have to actually make that flow happen yourself. You almost want to create that wallless feel of a studio apartment rather than the space feeling boxed in and full of walls.
