When decorating a home and filling it with multi-functional furniture, it is key to make the space more comfortable. It can be difficult, however, if you have a smaller living space, entertain often, and/or want to ensure said space is still usable and efficient.
If you’re in the middle of a home revamp or you’re moving into a house with less space, now is a great time to consider multi-functional furniture. Essentially, these pieces serve more than one purpose and prioritize functionality. Beyond looking chic, multitasking is the best thing your furniture can do for you. Furniture that can offer relaxation, storage and multiple uses – on top of looking stylish – is a trend that will never die. Here are four pieces that’ll save you space in your living arrangement:
1. Ottomans with storage.
Today’s ottoman is more multifunctional than ever. Beyond putting your feet up to relax, it can instantly become a “cocktail table” in front of the sofa with a simple tray. Many modern ottomans have trays stored right underneath.
Need extra seating for the conversation? Castors assure the ottoman can be moved around the room as that extra seat. And there are also ottomans that have a “secret” storage capacity to help eliminate clutter, games or blankets for colder nights.
2. Sofa tables and consoles.
The name is in itself – the sofa table is a perfect space to showcase beautiful displays or set a drink by the sofa, but this hard working piece of furniture can also be useful as a desk or extra buffet table. Now, they even come with charging stations and extra stools pushed underneath.
The expandable, taller option elevates to your chest level, so you don’t have to bend down, or folds out to create a larger place to set o’dourves for guest. Whether you are taking care of bills, catching up on work, or completing your favorite crosswords, this hard working piece of furniture is one you will question how you lived without!
3. Expandable kitchen tables.
When you love to have guests over, having enough space to accommodate each person is a must. But why take up the living space all of the time when they’re only visiting for a few hours of the week? Expandable kitchen tables allow you to offer that extra level of accommodation while saving the room when the visitors head home. Some options come with rolling gears and hidden leaf stored right inside table top.
4. Sofa Sleepers.
This tip is great for large families or those social people out there. Your home may not have an extra space for visiting guest or maybe, you have a home office that needs to be multi functioning. A sleeper sofa is always a great addition. Closed, it becomes a great seat or nap spot during the day. When company arrives, they can have a great resting area.
All these modern pieces of functional furniture are great options that can save you time, space and money over the years! Does your living space seem more cramped than it needs to be? Are you in the mood for a home revamp?
