This dorm-and-apartment friendly curation gets top marks for small-space living! Whether you’re a freshman or senior, we have the must-haves to get your school year off to a comfortable, stylish, and conducive-to-studying start.
A smart study area
Scale down with furniture for a smaller footprint. To make the most efficient use of your floorplan, pick and arrange pieces in sizes and shapes that don’t overwhelm, but instead accentuate the area. Pair a slim desk with a comfy chair that can also be used for visitors or as part of a reading nook.

Sweet dreams for your square footage
A bed with storage space is the perfect spot for a comforter, clothes, sheets, blankets and more. Loft, bunk beds, or day beds are another option to maximize space. Think clean lines, proper proportion, and placement. Dressers and nightstands provide an additional area to stow away necessities.

Select stylish, smart storage
Multi-functional furniture, such as an ottoman with storage, does double duty, providing much-appreciated seating space. Pay particular attention to the flow of the room. Maximize space by going vertical with taller pieces, such as a bookcase, to provide even more room for must-haves.
