A lack of space is a familiar problem in almost every apartment. Even in a large home, it is easy to keep buying new things until every corner is full. In small homes, the need to use space well becomes even more important. Modern furniture with built-in storage can help, often combining two functions in one piece, such as a sofa, bed, or coffee table with shelves or hidden compartments.
Furniture With Storage: The Coffee Table

Multifunctional furniture is a challenge for designers because several uses must be combined in one compact form. A sofa might hide pockets in the back for the remote control, magazines, and other small items. An ottoman with a lid and a large inner compartment is another practical piece for almost any room.
Storage Ottoman With Interior Compartment

A coffee table with drawers, shelves, and carefully designed compartments is another smart idea. Beds with storage, seats integrated into staircases, and built-in drawers all save money and preserve valuable floor space in a small apartment.
