Eliminate the unnecessary to welcome the necessary!

“The ability to simplify means to eliminate the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak.” – Hans Hofmann

In today’s world, along with an aesthetic taste, people are also looking for a comfortable living with the idea of Saving Space And Money. With increasing population and reducing space availability, the need for furniture that is Portable or Foldable is always High. Ideal for small apartments, space saving furniture like Wall Beds, Bunk Beds, Sofa cum Beds, Folding tables, etc. becomes very handy and essential. We desire for a space saving furniture that is not only functionally perfect but also Exquisite and gives the apartment an air of Elegance and Style as well. These types of furniture are really exciting because they just don’t make it possible, but comfortable to live in a small space. Efficient Spatial Living is a very important issue these days for a number of reasons. There is a direct relation between square footage and energy use, since larger spaces tend to have more lighting and greater utility needs, there’s also an increased material cost since larger spaces use up more materials and labor than smaller homes, and finally we have to realize that larger homes don’t make us any happier.

It seems that smaller housing is what we should be aiming for in our society. But the reality is that most people still feel the pull of owning a bigger house. There is a sense that if most people are living in enormous homes, it would need ascetic self-denial to live in a small apartment or house. This is where efficient/organized furniture enters the discussion. Spatial efficiency increases the livability of a given area. By allowing us to use the same space for various multiple activities , it increases the effective square footage, making us count one space two or three times. Obviously we aren’t getting a larger house but the point is we get all the spatial benefits of having a larger house while maintaining a much smaller physical and environmental footprint.

I am just not talking about side stools with storage compartments in them or pullout drawers under the bed. I am talking about luxurious Queen Beds that disappear into the wall and coffee tables that transform into your full dining tables. Expanding Dining Tables are becoming very popular these days. The major benefit of using such dining tables is that it can be expanded to a certain length when required. That is the kind of magic being produced by lots of furniture companies(mostly Italian). The most advantageous part of these products is that they not only look good but are also very easy to operate. All the product pieces lock back into place and you can simply slide your furniture Back into a different position giving you extra space available and allowing your home to be much larger and more comfortable to live in. These Spatial Efficient Furniture not only save a lot of space but also saves money. The transformer furniture items in the market are generally Quite Affordable. Such items can be found for sale particularly in the online stores which deal in such items in bulk. Space effective furniture also makes your home look neat as all the pieces get locket back in place. Also space saving furniture is constantly shifting and moving around, it will keep the product from collecting dust. In our world where everything is expected in excess, practical items of furniture that save space and perform double duty tends to be a welcome treat of sorts. Getting kids to clean up the home is usually a task in itself, but asking them to put the furniture puzzle together again will add an element of fun to the task. Most space efficient furniture pieces are created in with esthetics in mind and will complement the décor of your home.

As John Gower, owner and principal designer of BC Mountain Homes quoted –

“I believe that such smaller houses – where comfort, practicality and beauty co-exist in harmony – represent an idea whose time has truly come. They’re better for the environment and they enhance the quality of life – both in our communities and for those who live in them. I am glad to help make this option available to everyone.”

I believe it’s time to broaden our minds and not the spaces we dwell in because small rooms or dwellings discipline our mind, and on contrary larger ones weaken it.
