BEDFRAMES WITH BUILT-IN STORAGE
In a small apartment, medium-sized beds often take up the majority of a bedroom’s floor space. There might not be room for any kind of dresser. In scenarios like this – particularly if you need a new bed frame regardless – is to consider pieces with built-in storage.

ELEVATED BED & BUNK BEDS
Are you reminiscent about living inn a college dorm? Now’s your chance to relive it! In all seriousness, many of us would either loft our beds to create usable space beneath them, or turn them into bunk beds to open up a lot more floorspace. The same can be done in an apartment! Whether it be adults-only or kids sharing a room, elevated beds and bunk beds save (or create) a whole lot of space.

TALL, THIN CHEST WITH DRAWERS
In a big city, nobody can build “outwardly” due to the lack of space – instead, everyone builds upward. That’s the same mentality we need when it comes to utilizing square footage in a small apartment bedroom. Dressers, for example, can’t be too wide or deep – but they can be tall. Tall dressers take up little space and offer lots of storage.
