In a small apartment, you need to find a place for storage systems, correctly distribute all the zones necessary for a comfortable life, and do not forget about beauty and harmony. How to do this when the living area does not exceed 44 square meters? We found the answers in a small size from Stockholm.

Visual tricks

Maximum natural light

When it comes to a small space, the first question is how to visually enlarge it. This can be done using several design tricks. They are as old as light, but very effective:
• Light shades in the decoration of walls and floors always work to visually expand the space.
• The absence of curtains on the windows allows you to fill the apartment with natural light, and the more light, the more spacious the room seems.
• Glossy surfaces are also relevant for small sizes. They reflect light, which affects the visual perception of a small space, which makes it seem larger..
• A tall illuminated mirror appears massive at first glance. But in fact, installed near a window, it fills the room with additional light, and also gives a small room a perspective..

Of course, in the struggle for square meters, one should not forget about comfortable zoning. This small apartment has room for a spacious living room, a comfortable dining room, a cozy bedroom and an elegant kitchen with a breakfast bar. How did you manage to achieve this and where were all the things hidden (after all, there is not a single cabinet or chest of drawers)?
• The bedroom area was placed in a secluded corner, literally a few meters away.
• They decided to install the bed on the podium in order to hide things in it and not clutter up the space with unnecessary pieces of furniture.
• The living room was zoned with a small partition, which also serves as a storage system.

The beautiful and elegant kitchen, which is one of the main decorations of the apartment, cannot be ignored. The facades of the wardrobes are made in a muted olive shade, which harmonizes the sterile white interior. The apron and countertops were made of Carrara marble, which is one of the elite types of finishing materials. This proves once again that even a small apartment can be elegant, and to make it so it is worth paying attention to detail..

The same marble was used to decorate a small bathroom. A noble ash shade contributed to the visual expansion of the small room. To enhance the effect, the mirror was chosen in a minimalist style and rather impressive in size..
