More Filipinos are now opting for condo living in urban areas. According to a residential quarterly report released in February, Philippine property developers sold a total of 52,600 residential condominium units last year. 

SMALL SPACE, BIG STATEMENTS. Crate Design Studio shares tips on furnishing a condominium using stylish and multi-functional furniture.

“Take-up of pre-selling condominium units throughout Metro Manila, including fringe locations, reached 52,600 units in 2017, 24 percent higher than the prior year and the highest historically for the country’s capital,” said Colliers International Philippines. 

It’s easy to see why condo living is becoming more and more popular. In a practical sense, it offers a number of benefits: the proximity of many establishments in urban areas and access to facilities and amenities not readily available in other housing developments, are just some. 

However, with accessibility comes limited space. 

But several residential condo unit owners prove that it is possible to live in a small space that doesn’t compromise on style.

Experts at Crate Design Studio shares the following tips on how to furnish a condominium and make it a cozy, not cramped, place to live in: 

Axis Sleeper Sofa

• No guest room? No problem. Sleeper sofas that easily shift from lounging to sleeping are an ideal solution for hosting overnight guests. But don’t pick a hideous looking sofa bed, remember, it’s the focal point of the living room, so choose a lovely piece. 

Scholar Round Dining Table

• Opt for space-saving round dining table instead of a huge rectangular table. An extension dining table also works great as a versatile base for a room.

• On the other hand, smaller sofas and loveseats (because only two people can comfortably seat on them) are compact and perfect for small apartments or large bedrooms with extra space for seating. 

Hayden Natural Queen Storage Bed

• Maximize bedroom storage with a stylish storage bed. The extra space is perfect for organizing off-season clothing and bedding essentials.

• Bar cart, aside from holding liquor also makes a great nightstand. But if space does not permit, get a compact side table that also doubles as a storage space. 

Crate Design Studio says incredible homes can come in small packages, all it takes is smart room planning and furniture items that work for the space and the person who lives in it.

These pieces are available at Crate & Barrel stores.
