December 15, 2015

Small home? No problem. No spatial dilemma is too big to tackle with these creative smart storage ideas and innovative multi-purpose furniture that will help to declutter your home, and make space where there is none.

Go For Foldable/Pull-Out Furniture

1. If space is what you lack in a small bedroom and a bed is in the way, this magical foldable bed is the only solution you need. Easy, tidy, and your sheets will never be colonised by another. Pull it down before you sleep and push it up when not in use to save precious space.

But when you have company over, it is able to extend out to accommodate at least ten people. This space-friendly pop-out table will solve your dining dilemma in a pinch.

Work That Awkward Layout
