Tiny Spaces with Big Style
Space is in limited supply for city dwellers like me. Not only am I challenged with lack of space (and storage) in my own apartment, but also in the planning and design of my client's spaces. One thing I have learned: A small space can be just as chic as a larger one (possibly even quirkier and more fun!)
Often restrictions on space encourage us to think outside the box, resulting in unique and practical solutions. With the right planning and clever tricks a tight space can be turned into a functional office, reading nook, or a cozy bedroom.

A curved bedside table uses minimal floor space. A tiny lamp coordinates with the scale of the table.

There are lots of small spaces as city dwellings where I am. Here's an idea for some cool artwork that was recently installed in a midsize tween's room but can be used anywhere to make the space look larger. It can be removed as she outgrows or as a typical teen, may change her mind and then can be stored and reused again.
