The main rule is to use every square meter as efficiently as possible.

A one-room apartment usually has one living space that combines a living room, bedroom, and kitchen. To visually separate the zones, you can use different floor coverings, furniture in different styles, and color accents in the decor.

A light screen, shelves or colored curtains will do to separate the living room and bedroom. It is better to place the bedroom in the quietest and most isolated place. And the living room - closer to the entrance.

A bar counter or low shelves are suitable for zoning the kitchen. This way the kitchen will be separated from the living room, but will remain visually open.

It is very important to think about storing things and interior items. In a one-room apartment, you need to use the vertical space as much as possible. Shelves, racks, wall cabinets will help to place the necessary things.

Pull-out shelves, built-in cabinets, and modular systems are convenient for storing clothes and shoes. They can even fit into a niche between the wall and the refrigerator.

In the bedroom, you can use a high bed with drawers for linen. Place containers under the bed to store things that are rarely used.

In the kitchen, it is best to organize food storage using wall shelves, hanging nets, and pull-out baskets. This will save space and make the kitchen more ergonomic.

Properly placed furniture will also help to use the space effectively. It is better to place the sofa along one of the walls, this will free up the center of the room.

The bed can be installed on a podium - place linen boxes underneath it. Such a design will not take up useful space.

It is better to choose a compact, extendable or corner table - this way it will take up less space. You can use transformable chairs that will fold up and take up very little space.

The best option for the kitchen is a corner model with built-in appliances. It saves space and looks stylish.

The main thing is not to be afraid to experiment and be creative. Even in a small apartment, if desired, you can create a cozy and comfortable interior.

Proper zoning and storage will help you use every centimeter of space rationally.
