A Tiny Manhattan Loft With Lots Of Surprises

As you know, having to live in a small space is not exactly a dream come true. Almost anyone would rather choose a home that’s bigger than they need instead of a tiny one where there’s no space for anything. But this doesn’t mean that small apartments should be banished or that they should disappear. It only means that we need to find ways to deal with them. Every once in a while we find tiny apartments that are very inspiring. Here’s one of them.

Turning this space into a comfortable and livable space was definitely a challenge. The designers only had 424 square feet to work with. They divided the space in 3 levels. They also tried to open it up as much as possible and to make it feel both beautiful and welcoming. The upper level was extended and it features a built-in bed that cantilevers over the floor edge. It was an ingenious idea that freed up floor space. to solve the storage problem, lots of built-in drawers, spaces under the stairs and other hidden solutions were found.
