Bigger Isn't Always Better, Right?

Sometimes smaller is better, right?

Seems like an odd statement, but sometimes having just enough room makes it easier to design and requires effective storage solutions.

This 84 sq.ft nursery featured on Apartment Therapy is not only adorable but fully functional.

Although I am sure they would love a traditional closet, their creative 15 wall-mounted storage bins are mighty cool.

I also love how she hung a fabric panel behind the crib to cover up an unnecessary door. Covering a door or not, this is a great solution to inexpensively add some color and pattern.

This teeny space manages to have a crib, changing table/dresser, twin bed, bookshelf, wall storage, and hanging space for clothing.

Living in a small space also requires you to purge any unnecessary items, allowing you to only keep things you really love or need.

I think that might be my favorite part about living in my small condo, if something new comes in, something old must go out!

Do you find small spaces inspiring or does it just make your head hurt?
