Starting college is an exciting time that may also mean moving into your first studio apartment. We’ve gathered ideas to help you make the most of limited space, from multi-functional furniture and smart storage solutions to cosy touches that add comfort – all to help you get off to a great start!
Start with something that can be reused
The hard-wearing IVAR folding table can live through your parties, studies and dinners. As IVAR system is easy to disassemble and reassemble, you can reuse it as you move to your next home.
Furniture that fits, even when the space is tight
In your first apartment, make the most of your space with IVAR wall shelves and cabinets featuring sliding doors. Sliding doors don’t require extra room to open, giving you more room to furnish as you wish.
Set up a social hub with hidden surprises
Create an inviting space for socialising with the versatile LINDÅKRA sofa bed and a GRIMSARBO side table. Both offer hidden features – storage under the sofa bed and a secret compartment under the table top – for all the things you want to hide away from sight.
Yep, it’s time to start doing your own laundry
Dry your clothes at home even if you’re short on space. The JÄLL drying rack folds flat when not in use and is gentler on both your clothes and the environment compared to a dryer. Carry your laundry in a GÖRSNYGG bag that holds a lot when you´re on the go and takes up little space when it´s empty.
Move in, make it yours – start with stripes!
Easily add some personality to your first apartment with the RINGSTA lamp shade. Its iconic stripes can be matched with equally striped bedlinen or SLÅNHÖSTMAL curtains to go all in.
