A modern small-space living room that’s big on togetherness

Welcome to this cozy, contemporary home performing downsizing in practice. Here, challenges are turned into opportunities when an older relative moves in with her family. The living room aims to bridge gaps in age and interests thanks to an inviting simplicity and well-planned solutions, leading the way to meaningful meetings between family members and beyond.

Storage to bring out style and hide clutter away

When there’s little room, let your furniture work double the best you can. This useful principle often centers on multifunctionality and practical aspects – but can just as well be applied to decoration. Like combining EKET and BESTÅ cabinets and shelving into a mix that becomes equal parts handy storage and personal expression.

A sofa for family gatherings

A sofa doesn’t have to be big to be a great meeting spot. On the contrary, a two-seater is ideal for showing a grandchild a smartphone hack, deep talks, or simply sharing precious moments.

Seating for when a crowd draws a crowd

Across the table from the sofa is a trusty supporter, both in terms of seating arrangement and your back. Its sturdiness may be upstaged by the light weight and airy look, but don’t be fooled. You can easily move BINGSTA armchair to wherever it’s needed. There, the rounded armrests and back cushion provide you with your own comfortable nook.

A social desk space – when you want it to be

When floor space is scarce and needed for different uses at different times, flexibility makes your life easier. This desk, a combination of LINNMON table-top and KRILLE legs with casters, is a masterclass in mobility. Placed by a wall, it’s equally discreet and handy as a space for focused activity.
