Living large in a small apartment living room - IKEA
A little studio apartment where the living room is a workspace too. Sound familiar? Even with its small footprint, this living-work area delivers on all fronts, offering up a corner for creative work, a generous sofa for down-time and enough storage – open, closed and secreted away – to keep every object organised and accessible.

r/IKEA on Reddit: Recommendations for a small studio
June 13, 2022 -
Hi! I’m looking for recommendations (preferably from experience) for the best storage solutions/multipurpose IKEA furniture for a small studio apartment. Also sadly… no drilling, since I would like to keep my deposit :’) Are there any good shelving solutions that don’t have to be hung on the wall for example?

Having lived in a few small studios in different cities, I have a few recommendations… Under the bed dresser (I used brimnes but I think nordli would be a better choice now; it’s more modular) Elvarli - can build shelves and drawers up to the ceiling (height adjustable) and also a good room divider. Best part is that you don’t need to drill! I’ve used the tension rods without drilling with no problem since you can tighten it until it’s secured (however, be careful not to tighten too much and measure the shelves before doing so. It’s a bit of a pain at first but worth it when it comes together!). Can also use one of the longer shelves as a table or desk, depending on your setup. (In my old studio, I would’ve used this instead of a kitchen table between my living room and kitchen, but I have limitations in my new studio). Kallax book cases - these can be multipurpose as room dividers and different shelving options. Also great to use as a tv console and extra storage if turned on its side. I recommend getting the shelf insert boxes that can be folded. This can also work as for storing extra clothes or blankets. Rolling kitchen carts - FÖRHÖJA carts are great and can work as a small island or as extra prep space. Love that there is now also a smaller size. They also have extra space for storing utensils and other things. Ikea’s new small folding chairs are cheap and comfy. I like Nisse for comfort. The Lack wall shelf unit is great for tight spaces for extra storage or shelves. Panel curtains like VATTENAX can also be stylish room dividers. Try to get as many versatile and modular drawer units as possible, particularly rolling ones like Alex. They can be great as an alternative, slender dresser or to double up with office storage. Get a table top and legs that you can fit a smaller drawer unit under to use as a desk, or a modular table that can be multifunctional like Norden. I would recommend a modular sofa with storage like Valentuna. Since this was out of stock at ikea for several months, I found something similar on Amazon. Cheers and good luck!

Seconding "under bed storage". If you have a bed already, Ikea also has a variety of long flat bins meant to go under your bed. I have a couple of them for extra bedding and out-of-season clothes. The Kallax shelving instructions will recommend that you attach it to the wall, but that's just so it doesn't fall over if kids climb on it. If you don't have kids, it should be fine. Especially if you put your heaviest stuff on the bottom shelf. It's a pretty sturdy piece of furniture. (And would probably make a good TV stand!) If you have room for some living room furniture, I can recommend the Klippan loveseat. I got it on sale for like $200, looks like it's $319 now, but it's comfy and big enough for 2 adults while still being small.

April 19, 2015 - I’ve already spent plenty of time singing the praises of wall mounted shelving for small spaces, and IKEA’s ALGOT is a great budget-priced solution. You can mount these shelves above a dresser or a desk or wherever you have a little wall space, to maximize your storage, or build clothes storage into a closet-deficient apartment with their closet components.

r/IKEA on Reddit: Best furniture items for small spaces?
December 16, 2023 -
I’m moving into my own apartment this month and I’m super excited since I’ve had a roommate ever since graduating from college. The apartment I’m moving into is 484sq. It’s just me and my cat.
I’m looking at getting the Kivik love seat and a small ottoman to use as extra seating for when my friends come over. I’m pretty limited on space because it’s a tiny apartment, but I’d still like to have a decent desk. Any suggestions for a small but functional desk and any furniture to maximize storage function?

I'm a really big fan of our NORDEN table . $350 is a bit much but it has a very small footprint when folded down, and we get a lot of use out of the drawers. The MICKE desk range might be worth looking at, too.

Best Ikea sofa for small apartment
My sister is helping my nephew furnish his first apartment. He will have a roommate. Knowing my DN, there will not be a lot of attention paid to decor or cleaning. He's not a slob; he's just not particular. Plus, he will probably work 60 hours a week. I doubt that he will spend his free time decorating or cleaning. We are all pretty unfamiliar with Ikea because there is not one within 6 hours of us.

Hello everyone I am furnishing my first apartment after university and was wondering is Ikea still worth it? I always thought they where but after seeing their cooking utensils I think they have gone down hill slightly. Even more that there prices have risen since I needed to buy college furniture before. Is there another brand you recommend?
