Extreme Small Space Optimization in a 16 Square Meter Apartment
Who says living in a 16 square meter home can't be comfortable?A This small, but well organized and friendly crib for two! is an extreme example of space maximization in the busy city of Seattle. Did you ever think that a 182 square foot living space could house a living room, a bedroom, hallway and bathroom? Naturally, for such a home to exist, building a "second floor" was necessary. Therefore, the space that in most homes is only used for bunk beds, in this scenario serves as an entertainment room "downstairs" and an unusual bedroom above. Even though this house is beyond small, it is not lacking storage space. We have to say we were surprised to see how well those two bikes fit in there. Owner Steve Sauer says that he had bought most of the furniture from Ikea and he is particularly pleased with the small kitchen table with storage space inside. All in all, Steve stated that his apartment is cozy and not at all cramped: a??What I really wanted was one place with exactly what I needed and wanted. Quality is more important than quantity for me, and extra space only a problema? . You either love this place or hate it, but whichever it is keep in mind to think out of the box and explore all the living possibilities your home has to offer.-via Tinyhouseblog

Incredible Looking Loft Filled With Natural Light
This 94 square meter apartment has a privileged location on the corner of the building. You are looking at a nicely arranged flat with three rooms, one beside the park, with unobstructed views over the green expanse outside, and one facing the street, while the kitchen overlooks the pleasant and peaceful courtyard. In the middle lies a spacious hall and in relation to this, a new bathroom. The overall floor plan with massive windows on three sides and the bright color scheme fills the apartment with light. It's hard to decide which of these rooms we like best. Usually, when we present apartments on Freshome, we like to start with the living-room. But the bedroom in the first photo was just so inviting, that it deserved special treatment. Which room do you find most inspiring?
