Owners of small apartments will not let you lie: literally every square meter counts.

In this regard, the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino, suggests thinking about how much useful space will be lost if the space under the furniture is left unused.

Take sofas, cabinets, wardrobes and beds for example: you can easily create additional storage space underneath them for various things.

What can fit in them? Almost anything: these could be old photo albums, read books and other small items.

A simpler option is to immediately purchase a bed with drawers in which you can store bed linen, seasonal items and other items.

Another multifunctional interior element can be an ottoman with a removable lid, under which there will be a storage space.

Just think: all you need to do is make two useful purchases, and as a result, you will be able to significantly optimize the use of space in the rooms.

You can also effectively use the space above: place wicker baskets with lids or plastic containers on low cabinets where you can store towels, books, rarely used kitchen utensils, cereals, dried berries and fruits.
