Small spaces are the most difficult to develop because they require special logistics. If you want a modern interior, then opt for the smallest possible furniture. It is advisable to choose furniture that can have more than one function or that can be easily stored. If you want to separate rooms without losing space and brightness, there are different solutions. For example, you can install a sliding glass door or a screen. In this way the space will be closed or open whenever you wish. It is convenient to have a room divider for the kitchen and the bedroom as in the example below:

Even if you are not a great cook and you rarely cook, it is always good to separate this room to isolate cooking odors. You can opt for a room divider that moves easily. If, on the contrary, you like to cook and you only have a small space, it is not advisable to install a central island because you may lose some space. Another important rule to respect when creating a small space is to pay attention to the decoration. If you put too much, you risk stifling the atmosphere even more. The simpler the furniture and decorations, the brighter, more airy and more comfortable your studio will be.
