Children`s bedrooms constitute the space where the smallest members of the family grow up and where different phases of their development unfold, a place where they play, learn, sleep and dream. The setting should be attractive and inviting, with a design corresponding to the age of the child. In fact, every age range is marked by special needs, so the layout of a child`s bedroom should be carefully thought out from the start. Thus, the best idea is to choose furniture that "grows with the child" and can be adapted to their needs by changing the existing components or by later buying additional pieces. The following pages present ideas of renowned designers, interior architects and manufacturers from all over the world, for babies, small...

This compilation of projects from around the world pays special attention to the particular features of each space. While none of the apartments exceeds 800 square feet, all are homes, and the design strategies are very similar - in each case, the end result is determined by the pre-existing features. The property`s city location, the building`s architectural characteristics, its structure, and the lighting and ventilation conditions are points of departure. They become fundamental tools for understanding how architects, designers, or owners of small apartments approach a project with minimal living space.

This book brings together a selection of ideas for urban dwellings which respond to the scarcity of construction space in a particularly imaginative way. From homes on miniscule and problematic plots of land to small carefully planned urban refuges, the projects included here prove that the lack of square metres actually promotes creativity, equally in respect to that of the architects as of the occupants. In these homes, the finest details are taken care of, each and every corner systematically put to good use, helping to create a feeling of spaciousness and wellbeing. Lighting is, without doubt, a fundamental factor: a simple skylight is capable of converting a miniscule basement into an oasis of light which ascends to the heavens. In...
