Apartment Therapy's Big Book of Small, Cool Spaces

Whether you inhabit a studio or a sprawling house with one challenging space, Maxwell Gillingham-Ryan, co-founder of the most popular interior design website, Apartment Therapy, will help you transform tiny into totally fabulous.
Â
According to Maxwell, size constraints can actually unlock your design creativity and allow you to focus on whatâ€™s essential. In this vibrant book, he shares forty small, cool spaces that will change your thinking forever.
Â
These apartments and houses demonstrate hundreds of inventive solutions for creating more space in your home, and for making it more comfortable. Leading us through entrances, living rooms, kitchens and dining rooms, bedrooms, home offices, and kidsâ€™ rooms, Apartment Therapyâ€™s Big Book of Small, Cool Spaces is brimming with ingenious tips and ideas, such as:
Â
â€¢Â Â Shifting the sense of scale through contrasting colors
â€¢Â Â Adding airiness by using transparent collections
â€¢Â Â Utilizing the area under a loft bed for a kitchen and mini-bar
â€¢Â Â Tucking an office with chic vintage doors into an unused bedroom corner
Â
In each dwelling Maxwell points out what makes the layout work and what adds style. Most of the â€œtherapyâ€ involves minor tweaks that can be accomplished on a limited budget, such as dividing a room with sheer curtains, turning a door into a desk, or disguising electrical boxes with art displays. An extensive resource guide, including Maxwellâ€™s favorite websites for buying desks, open storage solutions, and much more, will help you turn even the tiniest residence into a place you are always happy to come home to.Â
