Tại Sao Phù Hợp
Small space maximization works on two levels: physical function and perceptual expansion. Physically, multi-functional furniture and vertical storage increase the usable square footage without adding area. Perceptually, design tricks — continuous flooring, mirrors, light colors, and furniture with exposed legs — make the brain perceive more space than exists. The combination of both approaches can make a 500-square-foot apartment feel like 800.

Câu Hỏi Thường Gặp
What is the best layout for a small room?
Keep the center of the room clear for traffic flow and push larger furniture to the walls. Use one multi-functional piece instead of multiple single-purpose items. Avoid blocking windows or doorways with furniture.
Do mirrors really make a small room feel bigger?
Yes — a large mirror reflects light and creates the illusion of depth, effectively doubling the visual space. Place mirrors opposite windows for maximum effect. Full-length or oversized mirrors work best.
How do I fit a home office in a small apartment?
Use a wall-mounted fold-down desk, a floating shelf as a desk, or a slim console table against a wall. A closet can be converted into a dedicated office nook with a shelf desk and task lighting.
