This 420-Square-Foot Studio Feels Much Bigger Thanks to Lots of Light
Rhea knows a thing or two about maximizing life in a small space. This self-described “single professional” finds “comfort and creativity” in this 420-square-foot studio apartment she’s rented for six months in Vancouver’s Downtown West End area.
She describes the space as a “typical urban city dwelling in a city challenged with providing affordable housing,” and pays $2,300 a month in rent. She says words like “cute, boho, traditional, and bright” describe her home’s style.
The apartment’s location in the West End neighborhood of Vancouver, “right along the banks of Sunset Beach” was certainly a selling point to Rhea, as are likely all the big windows in the space that afford views of “English Bay where daily views of the sunset skies, Seawall and the idle cargo ships peppered within the bay never disappoints,” she admits.
Rhea had been living in a one-bedroom apartment when she moved into this studio apartment, and says she had to get creative in figuring out how to lay out the space. “I found a way to find separation for my work area and resting area while still finding flow and connection with the entire space and furniture,” Rhea writes.
Thanks, Rhea!
