The apartmen is indeed tiny. The bedroom is particularly suggestive in this case. The bed basically takes over the whole room. There’s no space for a closet, a desk or even for a nightstand. All the elements had to be reconfigured. For example, the nightstand was replaced by a platform hanging above the bed. It serves a display pace but also a functional storage area for useful things. Notice that it incorporates four different compartments, each with their own interior space. There’s also another small shelf near the bed that serves as a space to store books.
