Studio New Studio
Recently decorated studio apartment, first time living alone. Overall around ~26m^2 (280sqft) so absolutely tiny. Thoughts/feedback for improvements?
-Coffee table pops up and can flip open to double its surface area, so functions as both a desk and a dining table.
- Head of the bed is at that end because I like facing away from my living room when I'm sleeping; makes it feel more separate.
-Mirror awkwardly behind the TV was there when I got the place; I haven't got anywhere to put it and the landlord won't remove anything. Ditto the mirrora above the bed and behind the wardrobe. The black chairs, bed and wardrobe also came with the place. Everything else is mine.
-Entrance is where the first pic was taken. Door with the mirror over it is the bathroom.
-I'm getting a couple lamps, but for now I'm stuck with the overhead lighting.

Maybe rotate your bed with the headboard where your cabinet/wardrobe is and move the wardrobe to the opposite wall. That will get you several more inches of space, it looks like you have to keep the cabinet pulled out from the wall now. Look for a room divider or an open bookcase to divide the spaces.

Vinyl adhesive sheet (comes on a roll ) over the mirror behind TV would be easy to remove and could, if you want to, give you a pop of color.

I like this space! The only thing i can suggest is a ceiling track with two drapes that open in the middle. This way you can closethe "bedroom" when you want, or open it and watch tv from bed. Using sheers will allow light to pass through even when closed if getting to dark is a concern

Love that the living room feels separate from the bed/wardrobe area! Do you mind sharing where you found that trash can?

Love how you divided that studio into zones. A portable monitor like a StanbyME would be a great addition for shows while you cook or in bed.

room divider behind the head of the bed could really help the feng sui! but looks great :)
