The dreamy studio apartment on Manhattan Upper East Side of designer and blogger Lauren McGrath.
A beautiful small space with great ideas to save space which Lauren shared on Domino. Did a little recap for you but check the entire feature here.
- if you are lacking space for Lacking space for bedside lamps use inexpensive swing-arm fixtures from Lamps Plus that don’t require installation.
- you can save on built in shelving is you find a good carpenter that can create custom bookcases. Did the same thing with my desk and side cabinet.
- use an ottoman as coffee table and you’ll have extra seating also.
- give the illusion of a bigger space with a slender mirror placed between windows
- choose furniture with double duty, like the wide desk, perfect for dinner parties
The question is: Where is her wardrobe?? :))
ehhm, that's a tricky one! under the bed & under the desk, I guess:)
What an adorable apartment! The key to small spaces is that double duty furniture and taking advantage of all the vertical space – those bookshelves are marvelous!
