YOUR SMALL SPACE
One Room, Many Functions
Some important tips when you arrive to your new, small place!
Tip #1
Multi Task! Best buys for small spaces are items that give more functional bang for the buck. Look for sofas that transform into comfortable beds, file cabinets that can serve the role of an end table, and tables that contain interior storage space to clear clutter and stretch your decor budget.
Tip #2
Download our FREE Room Planner. It's simple and easy to use. Just take your measurements, create a list of what functions you need fulfilled in the space. You will be able to get a visual 3-D image and floor plan as well as a shopping list to take to your local IKEA store.
Tip #3 Make use of every inch of space. Storage boxes are perfect for under the sofa bed to hold all your bulky bedding. Use our color-coordinated KASSETT storage boxes to hide it!

YOUR STYLE
Making your Space, your Place!
One of the most important things you can do to adapt to your new "home away from home" is to create a space that reflects who you are and what you like.
Using small accents with color, texture or patterns can make a BIG statement.
Textiles Use curtain or panels to brighten up the window area, and a quilt cover and toss pillows that reflect your personality. Use graphic fabrics to create simple and inexpensive wall art. A colorful area rug will create art beneath your feet.
The use of bright colors can turn a drab white room in to a space full of energy and vitality!
