9 Items from Shopee Home You Need to Live Large In Your Tiny BTO Flat

Get the look (for less) on Shopee Home!

It's no secret that BTO flats are getting smaller these days which is why you should maximise every square footage you can get. Here are 9 items from Shopee Home that will let you make the most out of your space!


1. Full-length mirrors

Instead of hacking down your walls, why not try this hack instead? By placing full-length mirrors around your home, you can make your space look twice as large.

Here are two of our current favourites: a timeless arched mirror, or if you're looking for something more fun, this curvy mirror is so in trend right now.

Tip: Try placing your mirrors near your entryway so you can even take a quick look at your outfit before heading out!

2. Nesting coffee table

Nesting coffee tables are perfect for small spaces. You can double your countertop space when you have guests over, or keep it stowed away on normal days.

This marble nesting coffee table even has a drawer to keep newspapers, magazines or remote controllers stashed away, while this solid wood coffee table would fit seamlessly into any mid-century modern style home.

3. Extendable dining table

If you host guests over frequently, having an extendable dining table ensures you have enough space for your guests to dine comfortably, while ensuring that it doesn't take up too much space everyday.

This marble extendable dining table will add a touch of class into any home! Or, if you're looking for an option that takes up little space, try this petite wooden drop-leaf extendable table instead.

4. Storage cabinets

We get it — having too much furniture in a tiny space might make your home feel super cramped. Opting for taller cabinets allows you to store more things by utilising vertical space, while occupying minimal square footage.

Also, don't let a small space cramp your style. In fact, this rattan sideboard and arched rattan cabinet will keep your clutter hidden while still looking good.

5. Trolley / Bar carts

Trolleys or bar carts are incredibly versatile — you can use them to store your favourite drinks in the dining area or keep your laundry essentials organised in the service yard. Plus, since they come with wheels, they’re easy to move around if you want to switch things up!

We love this Pinterest-worthy acrylic bar cart and this minimalist one that comes in both black and white.

6. Sofa with storage

Sofas typically take up a huge amount of space in your living room, so why not opt for one that performs double duty by having hidden storage space?

Apart from having nifty storage spaces at the bottom, this multi-functional L-shaped sofa or this sofabed with side storage can even be turned into a bed. Talk about multi-purpose!

Comes in brown, grey and cream.

7. All-in-One Multicooker

In every small kitchen, every inch of countertop space is prime real estate. Having an all-in-one multi-cooker not only saves countertop space, it can also be easily stowed away in your cabinets when not in use.

This nifty Ninja Foodi 11-in-1 Multicooker has a variety of cooking modes for you to choose from, be it airfrying to baking to sous vide!

8. Two-Door Fridge

Top- or bottom-freezer fridges are compact, space-saving options for any tiny kitchen. At only 60cm wide, this slim fridge from Hitachi takes up little square footage, plus comes in two sleek colours (champagne and black).

9. Front-Load Washing Machine

Front-load washing machines are better options if you're tight on space. They tend to be smaller in size and maximise vertical space as you’ll be able to store them under a countertop or cabinet, just like this front-load washer from Panasonic. This also means you can stack a dryer on top!
