Small Space, Big Style season 2 episode 5, "Space Savers," focuses on creative and practical solutions for homeowners living in small spaces. In this episode, designers and architects work with homeowners to maximize the functionality and beauty of their limited square footage.
The episode begins with designer Mark Baez working with a couple who have just purchased a small condo in the city. The couple is struggling to find space for all of their belongings in their new home, and Mark is there to help them come up with solutions to make their condo feel spacious and organized. Mark suggests using multi-functional furniture, such as a transforming coffee table that can be raised to double as a dining table, and installing built-in storage units to make use of all available space.
Next, architect David Levy helps a homeowner who is remodeling her tiny studio apartment. The homeowner is looking to add more storage to her small space without sacrificing style. David suggests using vertical storage solutions, such as a wall-mounted organizer system, to make use of the walls and create a streamlined look. He also recommends using a mirrored sliding door to create the illusion of more space and increase natural light in the apartment.
Later in the episode, designer and builder Joe Kennedy works with a couple who have recently downsized to a smaller home in a rural area. The couple is struggling to find space for their large collection of books, and Joe suggests building a customized bookshelf that will fit snugly in an unused corner of their living room. The bookshelf doubles as a work of art, with a unique design that complements the couple's eclectic style.
Finally, designer Rebekah Zaveloff helps a busy family of four who are living in a small condo with limited storage space. Rebekah suggests adding shelves and hooks to the walls to create more storage options, and using decorative baskets to store toys and other items that tend to accumulate clutter. She also recommends using a color scheme throughout the home to create a cohesive look and make the space feel larger and more open.
Throughout the episode, viewers are inspired by the creative solutions and beautiful designs that are possible in even the smallest of spaces. Whether homeowners are looking to downsize, live in a city apartment, or just want to make the most of their square footage, "Space Savers" offers practical and stylish solutions for maximizing space and creating a comfortable home.
