Darker walls will make your studio feel claustrophobic, drab, unwelcoming\u2014just plain depressing. Ditch the dark blues, browns, and grays, and opt for a lighter color palette to make your bathroom, kitchen, or bedroom open up and feel much livelier.<\/p>\n Another quick tip: if you don\u2019t want to paint the walls, you could wallpaper them with a vertical-striped print or add vertical accents<\/a> or sconces to add height to the room.<\/p>\n Under-the-bed storage and creative cabinet spaces can make your apartment as snazzy as this minute modern studio. Here you\u2019ve got everything you need: bed, desk, chair, drawers, all in about 50 square feet of space. This bed locker isn\u2019t the only type of creative storage out there though. To expand your living area, try staggered shelves, a fold-out desk, hanging pans and utensils, or a shoe rack fastened to the back of your closet door.<\/p>\n The corner of this studio could have easily gone to waste, but instead a vintage mirror<\/a> was added to help this room breathe. Some people think you need a floor-length mirror to expand your space, but this small, rounded mirror fits easily into a tight spot and makes a statement with its bold design. This is exactly what we want in a studio accessory: depth and style.<\/p>\n What\u2019s the number one studio cramper? Clutter. And clutter isn\u2019t just leaving your shoes and socks on the floor or your dishes and silverware in the kitchen sink. Too much furniture, appliances, or knickknacks can clutter up your studio just as easily. Pick out a few tasteful items you won\u2019t mind having in your life for a while and watch how quickly your studio becomes a minimalist masterpiece.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.storagearea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Wall.png\")
