Apartments For Rent in Michigan

There are lots of ways to make a small space apartment appear bigger. We already talked about how proper lighting, strategically placing mirrors and choosing the right curtain colors can make a small room look spacious and more airy.

But sometimes, those tips aren’t enough to maximize your rented space. This is why certain furniture ideas are developed with the help of new technology and creative thinking. One great example of this is OMA’s De Rotterdam – a 15 years project in the Netherlands designed to maximize the number of functions possible in a 60 square meter space. The project features apartments that use transformable furniture to pack variety of uses into small spaces. It has chairs that can be used as wall art when not in used, sofas that transform into beds and more!

Developer Wim De Lathauwer explains:

Why would we only think in quantity of bedrooms and square meters, while many of these spaces are used only sporadically?…In The Netherlands we are simply not used to this way of thinking. De Rotterdam is the ideal project when it comes to maximizing the joy of every square meter. We deal with an audience who understands this and yearns for this extra quality. Even in the large apartments the office, wardrobe- and guest room are combined in one space. Actually, it is very logical.

We took the challenge to reconsider living, which requires a new perspective on living space. The smallest model apartment in De Rotterdam is decorated with the space saving furniture of Clei Italia. With this furniture, you can live, sleep, dine, work and receive guests at 60 m2.
