2-17-09 lotta living room.jpgLotta Jansdotter maximizes every inch of her 725 square foot SF apartment by making the space work for her needs - meaning a living area that doubles as a guest room, a bedroom in a storage closet, and many more creative solutions...

2-17-09 lotta desk.jpgThe cubby space of the table in the joint office-cum-dining room is perfect for hiding work essentials when the room is being used for entertaining, and the CD tower between two doorways makes great use of a tight niche. We also love the simple but warm paint palette used throughout the apartment. Lovely!
