6 great design tricks and ideas for small apartments
Small apartments don’t necessarily have to lack comfort and coziness. If you are moving to small place, the first rule is to optimise every inch of space it and to make organisation your best friend. Besides that, there are plenty of small tricks you can use to make the space feel larger, and to transform it in to a comfortable nest.
Lighting is vital
Small apartments always require high quality lighting. Since you will be creating many different areas within the same space, lighting will help you to divide them. Our suggestion is to start with a great ceiling lamp set in the living area, and then add some wall or floor lamps to create smaller corners like the dining or working areas.
Our suggestion:
The beautiful Giacomo Floor Lamp and Gio Ceiling Lamp are perfect for small apartments With a mid-century modern touch and minimalist design, these two pieces will help you to highlight separate points in the same room, creating the right atmosphere in your space.
It’s true, mirrors are magic
Small apartments always need some insider tricks to help enlarge the space. Start with a big mirror leaning against the wall, which will make your room look larger than it actually is. Of course, a mirror is always a practical piece for any home!
Our suggestion:
Our beautiful Geometry Mirror will bring your apartment to life. Using the traditional marquetry technic with a contemporary design, this piece will bring personality to your living room without overdoing it – because minimalism is always a good idea in small apartments.
Furniture must be clean and smart
When we think about small apartments we associate them with modern clean furniture to optimise space. Clean lines and fresh colours are always an effective means of enlarging the space. We all know that dark corners and large furniture can reduce precious living space. so be sure to invest in clean functional furniture pieces in your new apartment.
Our suggestion:
The beautiful PinkIt table is a must for any occasion. Available in six different colours or walnut wood, it would be a delightful addition to any apartment
Small apartments don’t mean you can’t welcome guests
Forget about excuses, small apartments can also be inviting. If you are the social type and love to welcome your friends and family for the weekend, a sofa bed is always a good choice when your bedroom itself is already compact.

Always take advantage of height
Sometimes small apartments have great ceiling height – if this is the case, you should optimise the space and use as many storage units as possible. Large shelves and cabinets are always a good way of creating more room and a practical way of managing your daily life.
Our suggestion:
Small apartments always require versatile pieces and that’s why our Ipsy Valet Unit is a must. With a modern engaging design, it can be used as a ladder, a shelf and coat hanger. Your daily friend at home!
Sometimes a rug is the best way to create different spaces
In small apartments there are many ways to create different spaces. One of the most effective tools is the rug: with different shapes, colours and sizes you will be able to easily divide your living and working spaces
Our suggestion:
Always start with the living room rug, the centrepiece of your apartment. Our beautiful Cross Rug will help your living room shine with its vibrant colours and sumptuous yet modern design. Enjoy your time at home!
