Small square footage is a reality for many of us. If you live in a city apartment, chances are you aren’t exactly overrun with floor space. Anything you bring into your home needs to work hard and earn its place – usually by doing more than just looking nice.
As someone who has lived in her fair share of small apartments, I’m very familiar with this concept. After moving in and out of homes with varying degrees of awkward layouts and space challenges, I’ve learned which small-room ideas work, which don’t, and how to find furniture and decor that’s functional for small-space living without sacrificing style. So when friends set out to tackle their new small apartments, I have plenty of advice and experience to share – plus a list of interior designers I know will offer a spot of wisdom.
