Furnishing a small space can be a challenge but with careful planning and smart selections, it's certainly achievable! A good strategy is to choose functional items to make the most of your small space. Let’s begin with the top 4 space-saving furniture pieces you need:

1. Modular pieces allow you to create a size and configuration that best suits your lifestyle. Easily move pieces around to accommodate different scenarios in your space.
2. Sofa beds are versatile and allow you to easily turn any room into a sleep area for overnight guests. Even though the primary use is seating - you will want to look for features you would find in a regular sofa: style, fabric or leather preference, size, shape and so on. Sizes usually include: twin, double, queen and queen plus, and of course look for a comfortable mattress with a good operating mechanism. The most notable improvement in this category are the variety and quality of mattress and mechanism options – they open like a charm and ‘sleep’ like a baby.
3. Storage Ottoman in your living room can and will be used in so many ways: as seating to accommodate extra guests, as storage to hide extra toss cushions, throws and other clutter or as a coffee table (with a tray; to serve treats, drinks, cocktails, coffee or tea).
4. Nesting Tables are great space saving pieces with tons of functionality. Nesting Tables are a set of small tables that are graduated in size and height. Easily nested together as one to save space – and used individually to provide a surface to serve or eat on when entertaining. Similarly, Ottomans have dual function where you can use them as an extra chair or as table next to your sofa.
