People Can’t Believe This Apartment Is Only 22 Square Meters (236 Sq. ft) After Seeing These Pics
Urbanization is increasing rapidly, as more and more people flock to big cities from rural areas to find better opportunities for themselves. This is putting a lot of pressure on housing, and people are finding themselves cramped into tiny apartments as prices go up.
A Little Design, an interior design team from Taipei City in Taiwan, have come up with a brilliant example of maximizing small spaces in a 22sq.m (236ft. sq) apartment. Taking their cues from their client, who travels abroad a lot for work and needs only a good sleep and a hot bath at home, they prioritized things like a mezzanine floor for a bed and desk, and clever use of empty space by making it flexible for different needs.
Every inch of the living quarters in the tiny home has been considered, and the white and oak color scheme makes the interior feel bright and spacious. I would certainly love to live in a small apartment like this! This kind of smart, space-conscious design is only becoming more relevant in today’s mega-cities, and this provides a practical example of what can be possible.

Urbanization means that living spaces in cities are becoming increasingly cramped
However, ‘A Little Design’ made sure that every inch of space is maximized when they worked on this 22sq.m (236ft. sq) apartment
Taiwan-based design team included floor to ceiling storage
So there are no spaces wasted
A mezzanine creates more usable space upstairs
Here’s how it looks from above
A ladder gives a trendy and practical touch
Giving access to the bookshelves that the client insisted should be a feature
The client works abroad a lot so only really needs a good sleep
Looks cozy!
Everything is withing reach distance when laying on the bed
The apartment has a fully functioning kitchen, they even fit in a washing machine
Limited space calls for innovative decisions, so they had to play around with the tables
They can be re-arranged into various positions
Client likes to take hot baths and the design team managed to fit one in
These are the floor plans
Awesome concept but damn is that tight living quarters, I swear if you have a guest over, you let one fart slip and you will be able to smell it through out that whole place with no where to run.
"I"m sorry, this space just isn't going to work for me. I was wondering if you had something more fart-friendly?"
Oh my word, that made my day!
Welcome to the student life where that's all we have but it's much less well put together.
23 square meters is very very cool? but if you have 8 square meters???? http://varlamov.ru/2123910.html
Ode ni eleyi o 😂
Anyone else is concern about getting drunk and falling off the bedroom?
I think if you're drunk enough you won't even be able to climb the stairs :)
Actually, one of my first thoughts was being so trashed or tired that you couldn't make it up to the bed. I see something downstairs with pillows on it but it looks like it might be a hard surface. I think it's supposed to be a couch of sorts so it's probably softer than it looks. Every home needs a spot not far from the door where it's convenient and safe to just fall over on it and stay there.
There exist people who newer get drunk. Strange but true.
...23 square meters is very very cool? but if you have 8 square meters???? http://varlamov.ru/2123910.html
Am I the only one who spent several minutes trying to figure out why they had a wall separating two bathtubs? With a window in it? And a sink on both sides? And... two toilets?? Wait, that must be.... oh. Yup. Wall length mirror. *embarassed laugh*
Ha ha I thought the same thing!
@Parmeisan: TY for solving the riddle. It was confusing. I never thought of a mirror. But it's a nice big mirror for getting dressed. And a nice big mirror over the sink as well.
