Luxury apartment living calls for a smart approach and space-saving solutions. Reconsidering your spaces and how you use certain areas of your home will ensure you get the best out of those spaces, while maintaining comfort and ease.

To optimise living spaces, multifunctional furniture is fast becoming an attractive solution, as it fuses beautiful design with offering homeowners functionality, comfort, and a hassle-free user experience.

“There is a fine line between making multifunctional pieces beautiful or ugly. Multifunctional elements must be hidden as well as self-evident without the need to explain,” says Joe Paine of Joe Paine Studio, who is known for his innovative furniture designs.

“I have been designing multifunctional pieces my entire career. Adding multifunctionality is a way of solving problems inherent in the way we live by looking at how we use our products holistically so they work better for us. When products work well, we enjoy using them.”
