Tiny Apartments – Incredible Design

September 12, 2019
  • Share

Tiny apartments are such a fun topic. As someone who lives in LA, I love having a spacious home and many rooms to decorate. It just feels like a complete space that represents me. Lately, I’ve been browsing some of my favorite interior websites and seeing a lot of small apartment design. It’s incredible how much you can fit in 500 sq feet or less.

I’m in awe at how beautifully these spaces are decorated. You can really get a sense of the person who lives in each space and the functionality of the design. It’s pretty much the ultimate challenge unless you are a minimalist. Let’s check out this collection of awesome designs!

MINIMALIST LOFTED BED + CURATED STUDIO

This room has some stunning architecture. The molding and windows are incredible. I love the use of printed rugs and interesting furniture. This bedroom was crafted by the owner to be a special place for them.

This space has some beautiful details. For such a small space, it is expertly designed to have a strong color palette and design style. At the same time, It’s not too much. I love the addition of plants and subtle use of print + gold.

THE PERFECT SECTION + AN INCREDIBLE CORNER OF A LIVING ROOM

This small apartment was incredibly lucky to be gifted with a decent size square living room. In some cases, a sectional can be the perfect solution to creating a great space. I love the animal print rug, and hints of color through the decor.

The corner of this apartment is simply divine! I love the large leafy plant, the jewel tone rug and chair, and the white + beige chair. The detail of the apartment itself is stunning! That fireplace is such a focal point. The mirror makes this space feel much larger and looks beautiful on top of the fireplace.

PRACTICAL SEATING + VERSATILE COFFEE TABLE ALTERNATIVE

This small dining room space is breathtaking. I love the choice of table, chairs, and rug. Together it looks incredible and cozy. The little touches of art and plants make the space feel complete!

This apartment is a great example of how to deal with a small living room space. Using two small tables as a coffee table allows the space to feel larger and allows flexibility to move them. They also can double as extra seating!

A PLANT LOVER’S PARADISE + A MAGICAL SUNROOM

This small bedroom is packed with details. The shelf of plants + potted plant create such visual interest and make the room feel calm. I love the light pink bedding and abstract artwork. The owner did a great job at creating a cohesive design in a small space.

Talk about incredible spaces! It wouldn’t matter how small the apartment is if this gorgeous sunroom is attached to it. I love the hanging plants, wall decor, and the subtly printed throw pillows. This space is an oasis! Plus it’s perfect for entertaining.

LARGE WINDOW STUDIO + LIVING ROOM NOOK

This small space packs a punch! In this single room, there is a complete living room, bedroom space, and it feels spacious. I love the color palette plus, those giant windows really make this space incredible.

I really enjoy this small living room. The color palette is very minimal but the pops of color make it interesting. The use of an acrylic coffee table is great! It makes the room less crowded feeling.

BLACK AND WHITE

I love this tiny apartment! The use of white, black, and brown is super strong and creates a beautiful space. The patterned rug ties the colors together and is a fun focal point.

This tiny living has a lot going on but, still looks like a cool place to hang out and recharge. I love the windows, couch, and plants. The amount of art and pattern is perfect for this space.

MAKE USE OF EVERY CORNER + TINY KITCHEN INSPIRATION

The corner of the 500 sq foot apartment is great! Having no door or a sliding room to the bedroom is a great way to make the space feel much larger. The use of a mirror also helps create a sense of more space. The plant and photo are great additions that make this apartment feel unique.

I love this tiny kitchen. Many small apartments don’t even have basic kitchen appliances. This kitchen has small-sized appliances and genius storage. Hanging cutting boards on the wall doubles as decor. The open shelving storage on top of the cabinets looks beautiful while being practical.

Before you start moving furniture, ask yourself thBefore you start moving furniture, ask yourself these three questions:
Does this improve the room’s function?
Does it create a better focal point?
Does it make the space easier to walk through?
If the answer is “no” to all three, maybe it’s just the rearranging itch talking. 😅
Save this for the next time you’re tempted to move every piece of furniture in your house.
Watch to the end to weigh in. Clogs or no clogs? TWatch to the end to weigh in. Clogs or no clogs? They are on sale...not sure.
Summer sale season is here, and we are not holding back. 👏
This is the time of year to finally grab those pieces you’ve been eyeing all season. The good news? Major markdowns are happening right now across some of the best brands.
Our tip: Shop with intention. Know your palette, know your fit, and choose pieces that work with what you already own, not just because they’re on sale.
We’ve already done the hard work and created a Summer Sale Shopping Board filled with our favorite finds. A Shopping Board is like your own storefront. It’s a curated collection of products you can shop yourself or share with others to earn when they purchase through your links.
✨ Want to make it yours?
Comment SALE and we’ll send you the link. Then just tap “Add This Board” to save it to your Chirpyest account.
Or grab the link here 👉 https://www.chirpyest.com/s/cocoedit/summer-sale-2026/2071?mode=share
From there, you can shop the collection, share it with your audience, earn from your recommendations, and get cashback on your own purchases. 💛
This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and k This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and kept us there.
A 90s home in Amman, Jordan, entirely remodelled by local artisans. Neo-Florentine bones, Levant-eclectic sensibility, arched passageways, and a flea-market-meets-commissioned-art collection that makes every wall feel intentional.
What makes it work: restraint where you’d expect excess, and boldness where you’d expect safety.
This is what happens when a home is built by people who actually know the place. 🖤
Save this, it’s a masterclass in culturally rooted design.

Panic mode activated!
If you only have 10 minutes, focus on these three things:
1. Make the bed. It instantly makes the whole room look cleaner.
2. Fold or straighten the throw blanket and pillows.
3. Clear visible clutter from nightstands and the floor.
That’s it. Those three steps make the biggest visual impact without deep cleaning.
Save this for the next time you need a fast bedroom reset. 🔖

Black is not a bold choice. It’s a neutral, and one of the most versatile ones in design.
The rooms that get it right treat black the same way others treat white or greige: as a foundation that lets everything else breathe. The texture of the wall. The warmth of the wood. The drama of the marble. Black doesn’t compete, it amplifies.
Save this the next time someone talks you out of going dark. 🖤
