Small homes can also be big on style with some forward planning. Here are our top five pieces from BoConcept that are ideal for compact living quarters.

Stretch Out

Visitors can be both a blessing and a burden, especially when your nearest and dearest want to spend their holidays with you under one roof. The streamlined Melo armchair and loveseat fold out into a bed, ensuring they have a place to rest without taking up too much of your precious personal space.

Extra Storage

In a city where storage is a premium, the Chiva coffee table offers a practical solution to stow away your bits and bobs into multiple cubbies and drawers hidden in its simple, contemporary design.

Friend with Benefits

The comfy Xtra footstool is a practical piece that can be tucked in a corner and used to kick up your feet after a long day; it also doubles as a comfy cot to accommodate overnight guests.

Growth Spurt

Most contemporary apartments are doing away with dining rooms, as more single-person households prefer larger living spaces over formal eating areas. The Rubi adjustable table, with extendable legs, instantly transforms into a dining table ideal for hosting dinner parties at yours.

Take it to the Wall

In microflats and studios, make use of the vertical space, too. The hanging Cupertino desk folds out into a compact work station when in use, and can be concealed on days off.
