Lots of people live in a small home, a small room, or just a small space. Some people live in a small apartment because that s all they can afford, and they re grateful for it.

What s your design philosophy? Minimal but meaningful. I am inspired by Scandinavian design aesthetic with modern elements and [...]

1. Think foundation first In the before photo, you’ll notice a traditional rug underneath the coffee table which, in another space, could totally work. But here it’s too small to make an impact.

Forget Elbowroom Snug rooms are a chance to get cozy. To seat a crowd, ditch the sectional sofa (no one wants to sit in the corner anyway) in favor of small seats packed closely together.
