What matters in a small space

• Compact lighting: measure the base, cable route and clearance.
• Mirrors: check weight, mounting and wall material; do not improvise an adhesive installation.
• Textiles: measure window coverage and door clearance, keeping heaters unobstructed.
• Small-space furniture: compare both open and stored dimensions, walkways and everyday use.
• Rental-friendly decor: check lease terms, surface compatibility and removal instructions first.

Decor without unnecessary purchases

Compact lighting, mirrors, textiles, small-space furniture and no-drill decor are the five areas above. We do not recommend a lamp, mirror or furniture model until its identity, size and installation are checked. Begin by rearranging what you own and measuring walkways.
