Tiny Apartment in France

This 18 square m. apartment in France was designed for a university student. It has many ideas to make the most of its small space. I think it has more storage room than I have in my whole house!

First let's have a look at the floor plan:

Le plan de l'appartement
Thanks to a skylight (2) there's plenty of natural light in the entryway. Separating the kitchen and dining area (5) from the shower and toilet area (3) there is the bed (4) right on top of a storage unit which opens to both sides and a small desk at the end.

Recessed halogen spotlights over the desk and in every niche.

Home Renovation: Coat Closet

I hope you are ready for many home renovation posts,
because we have officially begun!
Even small spaces can be organized. Today, we added three cubbies to our downstairs coat closet to make room for "things" that usually end up on the floor.
1st step: De-clutter! In your small space, there is no room for unused items. After adding the cubbies, place the most important items on the top shelves. Add hooks on both sides of the walls for scarves, and smaller jackets you wear every day.
Whew... we are on our way!
