13 Truly Creative Ways to Create Space in Your Apartment
Living in a small apartment is not always easy, but these 13 tips might help you with some “traditional” problems. Get inspired by this list and give your apartment a spacious look.
1 | Convert That Balcony Into A Breakfast Parlor
There’s nothing better than sitting on a sunny balcony while drinking your morning coffee to start your day in the best way. Besides, by using one of your balcony’s flanks to create such a nice little haven, you are making the most of the available space.
2 | Transform Your Closet
Big house appliances usually demand a lot of room, but this headache can be avoided if you’re clever. Just make the most of a closet and transform it into a very small, but extremely organized, laundry room.
3 | Create A Little Desk For The Children
Do you know that corner in the kid’s room you are always trying to fill with something, but every option just seems too crammed? This is the perfect answer: if your children still don’t have a drawing table, you can provide a simple and cheap solution.
4 | Transform A Closet Into A Mini Office
Here’s another tip to make the most of a closet: if you can’t seem to fit a desk anywhere else in the house, you can use a small closet to create an organized working space.
5 | Create A Balcony Garden
If you love flowers, living in a small apartment without space to display plants might be making you sad. Well, not anymore! Take this idea and create your own balcony garden.
6 | Organize Your Rooms
Living in a studio, without walls to tell you where each room starts and ends, might be confusing at first, but it just requires the right amount of organization and a few decor tricks. Use big furniture to create divisions and make the most of the available space.

If you have a small room and the usual bedside tables feel too hefty for such a space, maybe you can go with something lighter (and more original): this picture shows you how a garden step can serve as a beautiful bedside table.
