50 Home Items That Are Game-Changers for Small Spaces

At House Beautiful, we believe great style comes in every size. That's why we're pretty obsessive over the art of making your limited space work smarter, not harder. From clever desks for your at-home office to stylish sleeper sofas for your tiny apartment to even the best indoor plants for small space gardeners, we've seen some of the smartest and chicest items for apartments, tiny homes, and even dorm rooms. For our first annual House Beautiful Small Space Awards, we researched and reviewed the most clever small space gems that are not only beautiful but multi-functional too. If you’re frustrated with cramming giant-sized furniture into difficult areas, we made sure to find the top homewares for every inch of your household.

What that means? You don’t have to sacrifice space! Looking for the perfect way to store your pots and pans? We got it (vertical options are key)! Tired of lugging your bike up a narrow flight of stairs? We found an amazing choice for that too! Whether you’re in a tiny apartment or shared living space—you deserve to revamp your home without the fear of feeling clustered. These awards are dedicated to the tiny lifesavers that had a huge impact. Rethink what your home can do with the best small space-friendly options below.
