The era is progressing and developing, there are more and more alternative housing options that we can choose to fulfill one of the basic human needs, namely shelter or commonly called a house. Along with the development of these times. More and more people are also choosing apartments as a place to live. Some of the reasons people choose apartments as a place to live are because it is increasingly difficult to find landed houses or vacant land at affordable prices, especially for those who live in big cities or metropolitan areas. Apartment tends to be more simple and minimalist, and for those of you who have or are planning to choose an apartment as your residence, the ideas below can help you in decorating your apartment room to make it feel more comfortable.
1. Optimize the Use of Space
Apartment has a small space, so you have to optimize the size of the room as much as possible so that all the items you want to decorate your room can be fulfilled. Utilizing certain corners or sides of the room can help you optimize the size of the apartment space. One of them is by combining the sofa where you relax with the wall of the apartment room. With this combination, you can save space because the sofa that is usually placed in front of the wall is now parallel to the wall and you can put a table or other items in the empty space.
2. Combine Bedroom and Workspace

The key to having a small space is saving the area to put your belongings. In this case, it is saving space for our resting place or bedroom. You might be used to having your bedroom on the floor, but if you have an apartment, you have to change your perception about it a bit to save space. You can put or make your bed higher than the floor. The function is so that there is space under the bed that you can use for other things, for example you can make the empty space as your workspace, so that in one room you have two functions.
3. Using Bookshelves as a Divider between Rooms

Do you have a bookshelf or planning to buy a bookshelf for your apartment? You can use the bookshelf as a divider between rooms. For example, you can separate your lounge from your bedroom or your living room from your lounge. If you don't have a bookshelf, you can use other items, such as a long wardrobe that is large enough. Not only can it be used as a divider, but the bookshelf can also be used as an interesting decoration in your apartment space. A simpler thing that you can use as a divider is a fabric curtain, if you want to save more space.
4. Combine Kitchen and Dining Room
This is probably a common practice in modern homes these days. Combining the kitchen and dining room is also one way to save space if you have an apartment. By combining the two rooms you don't need to bother or complicated to decorate your dining room, just put your dining table near the kitchen. Or if your kitchen and dining room look more interesting put a square table like in the picture. The table can also be a barrier between the kitchen and dining room with your lounge because it is quite large and covers some of your kitchen furniture.
5. Choosing the Right Furniture
Additional furniture for your apartment space should be chosen carefully. If the additional furniture or decorations are too big, it can reduce the space of your apartment, and your apartment will look more cramped. Choose furniture that has a small or medium size but still has something unique. In addition to furniture to put on the table or on the floor, you can choose furniture that can be hung on the wall such as paintings, or wood carvings that can be hung on the wall. That way you can save a lot of space and the decor elements you want can also be fulfilled.
