Unlocking the potential of a mini apartment
With rising real estate prices and limited living space, small apartments such as micro apartments and one-bedroom units are gaining popularity. Those starting their careers in a big city or living alone often opt for a micro apartment, as it is generally more affordable than a multi-room apartment. However, even in 24 square meters, one can live comfortably. Whether it's a one-bedroom unit or a micro apartment, the goal is to create an inviting interior tailored to personal taste. Cleverly utilized nooks and sloping ceilings provide optimal storage space and functionality. When space is limited, smart prioritization is essential. Nolte offers ideal solutions by intelligently combining storage space, functionality, budget, and design. Reproductions of concrete, stone, and wood, as well as authentic materials like wood, metal, glass, lacquer, cement, and stone, elevate your home's appeal. Furnishing a small micro apartment spans from the kitchen through the hallway to the living area and bathroom, with stylish accents. We'll show you how to create a cozy micro apartment in a confined space.
