Maximising space and style: Four designer tips for styling small spaces

Want to maximise functionality within your small space without sacrificing aesthetics? These styling tips from King Living expert designers are what you need.


Implementing clever furnishings are an ideal way to make the most of your space and create a beautiful home that you’ll love spending quality time in. Here are four styling tips from King Living expert designers, crafted to help maximise functionality within your small space without sacrificing aesthetics.

1. Embrace Modularity

Create ultimate flexibility within a space by incorporating a modular sofa.

The King Living modular sofa collection is perfectly suited for the ever-changing demands of small-space living. Configurable to fit any space, the modular designs are highly adaptable, ensuring that your sofa always meets your needs.

The Zaza Sofa, for example, has flexible arms and backs ideal for smaller spaces, giving the option to vary your comfort from a higher back and raised arm support to a more relaxed lounging experience.

Tanya Rechberger, Design Development Manager at King Living, explains, “The modular sofas from King Living are designed not just to fit into small spaces but to enhance them, offering multiple configurations and functions in a single piece. This is essential for urban living, where flexibility and efficiency are key.”

2. Incorporate Multifunctional Pieces

Maximise the utility of your space by selecting pieces that serve more than one purpose.

When selecting furniture for small spaces, it’s crucial to think beyond size and consider multifunctionality. Pieces that are versatile and can be easily moved or reconfigured are perfect for transforming a compact area into a dynamic and functional living space.

The 1977 Sofa from King Living gives complete lifestyle flexibility. You can easily move the chaise from left to right or reconfigure the individual sofa modules to suit your evolving space requirements perfectly.

3. Opt For Compact Design

Maintain practicality within a space whilst also reducing the spatial footprint by incorporating compact furnishings.

Sebastian Clarke, Senior Designer at King Living, recommends their Apero Table – “The cantilever design of our Apero Table reduces spatial footprint while providing a practical surface area. This clever design is a hallmark of smart, contemporary living.”

4. Integrate Sleek Dining Solutions

Finally, select sleeker dining pieces with high flexibility.

The stackable Tasman Dining Chairs from King Living are a testament to functional design, allowing for easy storage when not in use. This feature is particularly useful in multipurpose spaces, adapting to different needs and occasions with ease.

Pearson Bulmer, Designer at King Living, also recommends the, “Magnolia Dining Table, specially designed for smaller, intimate spaces, with a reduced table width and gently curved corners.”
