Is there any small apartment decoration design that can meet storage requirements without losing space functionality; does not affect the beauty of the space and does not use expensive and complicated hardware?
Qiannianzhou: Of course there is. You just need to master these three words: store, hide, and facilitate. These three-word techniques, layered and progressive, can help you achieve reasonable storage space in even small apartments without compromising your quality of life!
"Zhuang" means to store.
1. Vertical space is a treasure trove
Living Room
As the number of smaller apartments grows, vertical storage, a space-saving trick, is gaining increasing attention and adoption. Depending on the situation, wall storage can be organized with hooks, shelves, and other storage options. However, the ultimate way to maximize space utilization and achieve a seamless whole is through custom cabinet storage. Simply consider your individual needs during renovation and you'll have a seamless experience.
2. Clever use of extended space
Eiffel 2 Balcony
Balconies serve as both an extension and a supporting space. Small apartments often lack functional space, and balconies can serve as a backup. For example, the Eiffel 2 project utilizes an open-plan design, transforming the balcony into a wine cabinet and creating a refined, relaxing balcony where even small apartments can enjoy a relaxing moment.
"Drunken Song of Wind and Lotus" Balcony
Families with children can also follow the example of "Drunk Song in the Wind Lotus" and transform the balcony into a children's toy storage area, placing messy toys in a confined area and freeing up space in the living room.
3. Don’t miss any corner space
Su Causeway Willows Tatami
Small corners and nooks are difficult to utilize, and if left unused, they can easily harbor dust. Pullout designs offer a solution for small interior spaces. For example, in the painting "Su Causeway Willows," the vertical space at the foot of the bed is used as a pullout box, which can store a suitcase. Horizontally, the horizontal space under the bed is used as a pullout, making it convenient for storing bedding that's not used all year round or everyday items that need to be easily grabbed.
Hidden means invisible.
4. Create an invisible air feeling
Living Room
Space organization isn't just about adding to the storage space; it's also about visually subtracting from it. The handleless design minimizes the cabinet's presence, visually enhancing the spaciousness of the space. The doors feature solid colors for a clean, simple feel. The cabinet body is a similar color to the floor, enhancing the sense of continuity.
5. Function folding or hiding
Pinyue Living and Dining Room
In addition to visual invisibility, functional invisibility is also a key technique for maximizing a small apartment. When space is insufficient, folding or concealing less frequently used areas can create space where needed. The "Pinyue" dining sideboard booth sits flush against the wall, freeing up more space in the dining room. Furthermore, the backrest and base of the booth can be used to store less frequently used items. Breaking down spatial barriers and integrating the living and dining areas into a cohesive design is also a common practice in small apartments.
Convenient - that is, in line with living habits.
6. Organize the clutter in the space

Even large apartments face the dilemma of shrinking as they grow smaller. Smaller apartments, faced with a multitude of small items, should prioritize organization. Organize items based on personal preferences and appropriate storage space to maintain long-term cleanliness. The "Jianyu" shoe cabinet features open areas for hanging clothes and small items, perfect for hanging bags and coats. The shoe bench, combined with drawers, provides increased storage space for shoe covers, tissues, men's shoe polish, and more, greatly enhancing convenience.
7. Flexible storage for long-term planning

Small apartments facing the dilemma of shrinking living spaces can also opt for a detachable design. The cabinets are designed with movable shelves, allowing for custom design based on different needs and placement in daily life, ensuring both aesthetic and practical storage, and enabling sustainable storage.
The above are classic techniques for expanding a small apartment. If you want to expand the overall space of a small apartment, you can start with the whole house design.
