Top Furniture Fundamentals for Small
Spaces Living in a home thats short on space,
doesnt have to limit your style. Choosing the
right furniture for small spaces is important.
You dont want a room to feel unsubstantial, but
furniture that carries too much heft can overcome
your space. For the living room, choose for
armless side chairs paired with open end tables,
like nesting tables. The smaller nesting table
can be placed anywhere when needed, like in front
of the sofa or next to a chair, but keep away
when not in use. While choosing sofas for small
spaces, look for one with tight upholstery that
set off the ground on pointed legs. That small
amount of space between the sofa and the floor
will add an unexpected feeling of openness to
your floor plan. In the bedroom, start with the
bed. If a king-sized bed is non-negotiable, make
sure you have enough room around the perimeter
of the frame to allow access on all three sides.
Pair with small nightstands that can double as
storage for essentials. If there isnt room for a
traditional nightstand, consider small accent
tables in their place. In a compact space,
choosing the right furniture products can make
all the difference between your homes feeling
comfortable. These are some furniture
fundamentals that can be helpful for any small
spaces.

Pick a table with base A round dining table with
a slim base suits into smaller spaces with ease.
The round edge means therell be no more bumping
into sharp corners, and the leg-free base makes
it easier to squeeze one more friend around the
table.

Choose flexible shelves Instead of selecting the
largest possible shelving unit to fit your space,
consider having a few flexible compartment
shelves that will either stand upright or lie
horizontally. A pair can sit side by side
against a wall, be used in different rooms or
flank a sofa, as shown here.

Use and set stack of nested tables Just because
you dont have space for huge armchairs and a
giant sofa doesnt mean you wont have a need
for sufficient seating. One solution is to set a
stack of stools in a corner when extra guests
visit, youll have a spot for everyone.

Reflect the room with a large mirror If youre
going to buy just a few items to make the most of
your small space, a large mirror should
definitely top your list. Hanging an oversized
design instantly makes a small room feel bigger
and brighter. Position it opposite a window for
maximum light-boosting power.

Use of standing chairs Large armchairs may be
great for curling up in, but they also take up
lots of floor space. In a small living room,
choose standing chairs. And if you move into a
larger space in the future, a pair will create a
stylish extra seating around a coffee table, make
great bedroom chairs or can be used to border a
console table in a hall.

Choose small decent sofas A comfortable loveseat
or sofa makes for cozy seating and gives you a
place to stretch out when you are on your own,
without the size of a full-size design. In a
larger space, a small sofa can also sit nicely
in your hall, pulled up to a dining table or at
the foot of a bed.

When full-size home furniture would just overcome
your small room, try above alternatives instead,
and your home will feel always feel spacious
enough for what you have. And looks nice than
really it is.
