Make all the pieces roll into place

With little extra room, space-saving strategies make all the difference. Like a side table on castors, swiftly adapting with where it’s placed and what’s on it. Bedside table for overnight guests, check. Holder of games and snacks for a night, check. Out of the way to maximise floor space? Gone in a flash.

Your screen time deserves a cinema curtain

Besides giving your TV time a night-at-the-movies air, hiding the screen behind a length of fabric between sessions is an easy way to add a calm touch to the room. Not to mention colour.

A home for every little item

Is the screen in or out? This TV bench doesn’t mind. It swallows everything from electronics to decoration, no matter. Since storage space is precious, going vertical is another helpful tactic. Watch this EKET arrangement keep tabs on everyone’s things while making a slumbering corner come alive.

Dibs on the cosy corner

Between times of togetherness, it’s a good idea to allow space for me-time. You know – comfy seating, a lamp and shelf for reading, eye-catching mirrors, mood lighting, pouffe for your feet, the works. Get there first or get in line.

The wall of plenty

Turning a room into smaller ones has a paradoxical way of creating a spacious feel. Nothing does it better than a KALLAX shelving unit. This expressly two-sided room divider lets you tailor convenience and decoration to a truly eye-pleasing combo of storage and display.

Look what we have here!

The smaller the space, the more important the storage solutions. Which makes the impressive depths of ÄLVDALEN sofa-bed even more handy. Its roomy, hidden compartments are enough to hold bedding, comfy textiles and beyond.

A double bed, on the double

When there’s no room for a designated guest room, an ÄLVDALEN sofa-bed is a near and dear second. It puts your living room a quick change away from guest accommodation – and you’ll have it back again by morning.

A room mixing flexibility, function and fun

This is a living room with a lot going on, just as you want it. Personal expression and a playful colour scheme make it cosy and inviting, while flexible furniture allows it to adapt with shifting activities during the day – or night, if you happen to be a staying guest.
