Multipurpose furniture are most welcome in tiny homes, especially in situations where one room has to be used for different purposes. That’s why they the Flat coffee table from Smootree is a great piece for space-starved homeowners. It looks like an unassuming centrepiece for the living room but a simple lift turns it into a two-tiered table that functions as a work desk or dining table.

It works well as a wardrobe for your clothes, a sideboard for your tableware or as a display shelf in the living room. The best part is you can fold the doors close to hide away your clutter.

Looking for display shelves for an already crammed room? The last thing you one is a shelf that is big, bulky and boring. The minimalist Hay Woody shelves from Foundry are nothing like that.

City homes are notoriously small and the Atim dinner table from Spaceweiss is engineered for such interiors. A large pull-out table folds away completely inside a cupboard, sideboard, kitchen unit or console cabinet. The amazing mechanism lets you stretch the table to three different length combinations, up to a maximum of 2 metres.

 

6. Collapsible Seats

Having extra seats around the house is handy for when guests pop over, but otherwise, they just take up space at home. You want to have stackable chairs or seats that are compact enough to stow away when not needed. For something more innovative, check out the Seggio from Smootree. This innovative cube-shaped stool can transform into an impressive five-seater bench, thanks to its telescopic extension tracks.

7. Modular Storage
