Description: Looking for inspiration for your small home or apartment? You can find 30 of the worlds best apartments and homes under 50 square metres in our book, available at nevertoosmall.com/store Located near Paris’ Porte D’Ivry, Architect Olivier Menard of Archibien wanted additional space for his growing family without needing to relocate. In partnership with his neighbour he designed a radical change to the building that expanded the top floor apartments into the attic space above. This allowed the first floor to be devoted to living space, alongside a small concealed laundry and soundproofed bathroom, while the second floor could be entirely occupied by the master bedroom and kids room. The master includes built-in storage and a double glazed window that looks down to the kitchen, providing space for a small study desk within the room. Creatively concealed storage ensures the kids room remains open to grow with them over time. Similarly, hidden storage features throughout the rest of the apartment, including steps and stairs that double as shelving, as well as stepped cabinetry in the L shaped kitchen, reflecting the extremely efficient use of space that led this one bedroom apartment to become a family home. #smallapartment #architecture #interiordesign Music: Shades of Green by We Dream of Eden Artlist.io Produced by New Mac Video Agency Creator: Colin Chee Director: Nam Tran Cinematographer: Matthieu Torres Producer: Lindsay Barnard Editor: Jessica Ruasol
