When working on small properties, every square metre counts. So, make spaces serve multiple purposes. Smart design is the difference between cramped and comfortable.
- Built-in Storage: Wall-mounted cabinets, under-bed drawers, and stair riser storage.
- Flexible Layouts: Sliding doors or room dividers that convert open space into private zones.
- Vertical Thinking: Shelving, hanging racks, and loft spaces make use of ceiling height.
- Natural Light & Mirrors: A well-placed skylight or mirrored wall can double the perceived size of a room.
- Convertible spaces: Murphy beds in guest rooms, Fold-down tables in compact lounges
Example: Adding floor-to-ceiling joinery along a single wall eliminates the need for extra furniture, saving floor space and improving circulation.
