Space Saving Furniture Concepts
If you live in a smaller home or apartment, you have to be very conscious about how you utilize that space to maximize your living area. Even if you live in a larger home, you may have some rooms that require some creativity to use them to their full potential, which is where space saving furniture concepts come in. With a versatile space saving piece, even the smallest spaces can open up into much larger and more livable areas of the home so you can move freely without feeling cramped.
Nesting Chairs & Tables
There are tons of different styles and types of nesting chairs and tables that can create significant space when put together, as well as provide seating and tablet space when taken apart. There are even some Ottomans that separate into four small seats while still providing ample room for storage. The nice thing about nesting furniture is that it’s always there when you need the extra surface area, but it’s hardly noticeable when not needed.
Storage Ottoman
Ottomans can be one of the most versatile pieces of furniture in the living room since they effectively operate as a footrest with plenty of room to store things out of sight. They come in many different shapes, styles, and configurations, which means you can pick and choose to find the right option that matches the style of your living room and provides the proper amount of storage. Ottomans are ideal for storing blankets, throw pillows, and any other item that’s only used temporarily in the living room.

Drop Leaf Dining Table
A dining table takes up a lot of space, but it’s also one of the easiest pieces of furniture that can be folded down to create more. A drop leaf dining table is ideal if you only need the extra dining space when you’re hosting or having guests over and don’t otherwise need it. Most dining room tables have leaves that can be removed or added, but it can be a hassle if you’re doing it on a regular basis. With a drop leaf table, this process is made much easier, and you can quickly create more space in a matter of seconds.
Storage Bed
The area underneath the bed is an underused space when it comes to storage unless you have a bed frame with built in drawers or simply try to hide items underneath to keep them out of sight. A storage bed has built-in space designed for storage in the roomy area underneath the mattress and box spring, and some of them even have a frame that can be elevated to open up a much larger and easily accessible storage area.
Pop-up Coffee Table
A pop-up coffee table takes advantage of the same concept as an elevating bed frame in that the surface and be lifted to access storage underneath. An advantage of a pop-up coffee table is that the tabletop can be used for different purposes, from an area to eat or use as a short-term desk before returning it to its normal position. Many coffee tables offer underneath storage, but a pop-up table allows you to conceal the storage area rather than have it open and exposed which tends to create a more cluttered feel.
