Is a large canvas really necessary to paint a masterpiece? The obvious answer would be that the size of the canvas and the brilliance of a work of art bear no relation. Does this also apply to interior design? Is a creative, elegant and cozy design possible in a 30-40m2 apartment? This book proves that it is. The continuous downsizing of urban apartments has lead to the search for new interior design solutions making the most of the available space, the sources of natural light and storage space. Interior designers have had to adapt to the new reality and have applied resources almost never used in bigger housing. The final result is a philosophy of life based on the small, flexible and adaptable. Not only has the size of our apartments changed, but with it our lifestyle.
