Urban Outfitters’ New Home Collection Is Designed for Decorating Small Spaces
Over the past few years, I’ve noticed more home brands launching scaled-down versions of some of their best-selling furniture collections. It’s a step in the right direction for decorating small homes and apartments, but if you check the dimensions, some pieces still aren’t always totally up to small-space snuff. The real tests are whether they can actually pivot (cue Ross’s “PIVOT!”) through tight hallways and door frames, or sit in the teeniest of rooms without visually dominating the space.
That’s where Urban Outfitters comes in with their brand-new site section: UO Small Spaces. This curated landing page is a reliable, one-stop shop for bedding, furniture, decor, desk supplies, and more, all designed with modest proportions in mind. As the proud owner of several Urban Outfitters home pieces, I can confirm the brand actually gets it when it comes to stylish small-space fixtures. Expect far-from-boring silhouettes and cool colors across the entire assortment, as well — proof that you don’t have to skimp on good design in mini living rooms and bedrooms, or even bathrooms, kitchens, and dorm rooms.
Prices range from $10 for trinkets and knickknacks to $1,000+ for beds and sofas, but the collection altogether skews much more affordable than most high-end modern retailers. I picked out some of my favorite UO Small Spaces pieces below — starting at $39 — from double-duty furniture pieces to storage staples to college essentials (yep, they have stylish twin XL bedding covered, too).
