Cozy, the studio is often the first home after leaving the family home, which is furnished like a cocoon. However, setting up a studio can be a headache in finding the best possible layout. It is important to optimize as much as possible to save space.
It must be said that we have the impression that only an interior designer could design a small space, which serves as a living room and dining room. Indeed, a studio can look more like a closet when it just needs to be transformed and arranged. Here are some decorating ideas to best organize a studio and save space .
Storage furniture, the studio’s allies
In a small space, it is essential to choose your furnishings carefully. Furniture that is too large or too wide will tend to crowd a room, hide the light, limit circulation space... The storage cube is a very simple piece of furniture, in the form of an empty box, which can thus serve as an end sofa or bedside table. It can even be used as a coffee table for 2 people.
For meals, a table is necessary. To avoid wasting space with bulky chairs, several alternatives are possible: stools, stackable or folding chairs. Made of plastic or metal, they can even be hung in a cupboard to save space.
Very practical, the coffee table with cube stools can be ideal for having a real small living room. The stools completely disappear under the corners of the table. We also like poufs with chests, for storing magazines, remote controls, etc.
For daily sleeping, the convertible sofa for small area is recommended to have a bed with a real mattress and a box spring. The other option is the bed with storage, which allows bulky linen such as duvets, blankets, pillows, bolsters or eiderdowns, sheets and also cushions to be placed in drawers under the bed base.
Even if it is recommended for studios, the delimousse sofa only serves as an extra bed. The mattress foam is on the floor, without a box spring, which prevents back support. The mattress may become wet due to the heat.
Investing the corners of the house with corner furniture
Most studios only have a kitchenette. It is important to arrange a small kitchen with shelves, to install household appliances. A trolley with casters can be a storage space for food, which can be placed in a corner of the kitchen, which is often very narrow.
Corner furniture is also designed to avoid wasting space. Corners of a room can be exploited. To store your clothes, the corner dressing room is a piece of furniture that can be suitable in a studio. With one or two laundry areas and shelves, the wardrobe is located in the corner of the room and saves space in a dressing room .
