My favourite small spaces…

On Monday, I blogged about sacrificing space for the love of living in the city. It’s been on my mind ever since so I thought I would run some more small spaces by you again today. I am constantly on the look-out for clever design ideas and tips to make living in a shoebox just a bit more bearable. Luckily, there are thousands of clever people out there who think outside the box (ha ha) and give me tons of inspiration. Here is a round up of my favourite small spaces…

  1. they look great. I'm in the process of minimizing, yet again, getting rid of EVERYTHING I don't really need, hoping that this will help with the small spaces ;)

  4. The offices in the closets are so cute. I've seen somebody turn a closet into a nursery once. When short on space you just have to find a clever way of using it...

  11. I had a galley kitchen, probably the size of pic #3, when first married. Loved it. These are great examples! Thanks so much, I'll definitely need them for inspiration when we downsize!

  13. Meghan,
    As a homeowner that lives in a pretty small home I so appreciate your presenting clever and wonderful rooms for small spaces. I used to love the magazines that would annually feature beautiful homes that were tiny. You're right there are some pretty smart designers out there that make it look easy.
