Even though this unit is only a little over 400 square feet, the designer has made perfect use of the high ceiling to create a duplex design, effectively doubling the living space. The upper level houses the bedroom, providing the homeowner with increased privacy. By utilizing a combination of white and light wood grain, the minimalist design imbues the home with a serene and comfortable atmosphere while visually creating a sense of spaciousness.

This small home combines modern and industrial styles, skillfully incorporating different textures to create a rugged yet comfortable effect.

In this cozy and casual Scandinavian-style home, the designer has utilized built-in wall cabinets to create additional storage space, ensuring that even a small dwelling can be well-organized.

If concerns arise about the lack of privacy in an open-plan design, using glass partitions can be an excellent choice to balance the sense of space and practicality. In a color scheme that contrasts black and white, the designer has cleverly incorporated tinted glass accents to soften the sharpness typically associated with mirrors. Additionally, utilizing the floor platform is a great way to create storage space and extend the functionality of the sleeping area.

When it comes to maximizing every inch of space, this home design is a prime example! The commonly seen window sill in Hong Kong-style units has been transformed into a cozy space that serves both as a storage area and a spot for reading by the window. Additionally, a rotating shoe cabinet becomes a cherished item for many women, effectively doubling the storage capacity and conveniently displaying their entire shoe collection.
