The 87% of Americans who describe their home as small to medium in size know the importance of using every square inch to maximum efficiency.
Rather than making their space look bigger, people want a cozy, intimate feel and prefer to use their space wisely and get the most out of it.
Modern Furniture is a true complement to a small abode – it helps you maximize your space by providing function, comfort and style.
Here are practical tips for ways to increase square footage using your existing Modern Furniture without building on an addition:
1. Go Vertical. Consider tall furniture rather than wide to preserve precious floor space.
2. Use Your Walls. Add a shelf or rack to display a favorite collection or for hanging hats, ties and scarves.
3. Stash It in Style. Today’s occasional tables offer plenty of storage with drawers, shelves and cubbies plus glass-topped display space for collectibles.
4. Stack ‘em. Stackable and folding chairs are excellent ways to keep a supply of seating for a dinner party, holiday gatherings or drop-in guests.
5. Sweet Dreams. Sleep better knowing that you’ve taken advantage of the valuable space under the bed – in style. Use decorative boxes and storage bins to stow out-of-season clothing, wrapping paper, sporting goods or anything else.
6. Retractable Doors. When shopping for an armoire or entertainment center, look for ones with retractable doors to provide more space when the doors are open.
7. Rollin’, Rollin’, Rollin’. Many pieces of Modern Furniture have wheels – whether it is a sofa, a coffee table, a storage shelf, kitchen table or an ottoman. Enjoy extra mobility and function with a wheeled piece of furniture that is fashionable and practical.
Choose The Right Furniture That Can Expand Your Storage Space February 16, 2008

Do you tend to put something anywhere there is room? Do you continue to buy until you fill up any space you have? If your home is overflowing with “things”, you might want to use some of our organizing strategies to find the right place for everything.
1. Skirted Tables. A skirted table can hide a myriad of things in almost any room of your house. You’ll need a tablecloth that goes to the floor. It can be something as simple as a large sheet that coordinates with your decor. For a really fashionable look, layer 2 or 3 different length cloths and trim one or all with decorative tassles, fringe, or beads.
Use any table you have, or put a plywood top over a base. You can buy a pre-cut round or rectangular plywood top at most home improvement centers.
Place your table top over a pre-cut base, small bookcase, low filing cabinet, or even trash can turned upside down. Camoflage your base of choice with a floor-length tablecloth.
The space hidden below the top can be used to store almost anything. Stack books or boxes, bedside clutter, or craft supplies underneath. Hide a television underneath and just lift the skirt to watch your favorite shows.
2. Furniture. When you’re shopping for furniture, think ahead to how you’ll use the piece. An armoire offers lots of shelves, yet looks wonderful in almost any room of the house.
A chest of drawers doesn’t have to be large, but can provide more storage than a side table. A coffee table with drawers can hide things that a beautiful glass-topped table could.
Choose a bench with a hinged lid for the end of a bed or under a window. Use the space inside to store blankets, sheets, extra towels, out-of-season clothes, or toys.
Buy Coffee Tables : Dolce Dark Walnut Coffee Table – In Stock On 27, January 2008 January 27, 2008
Posted by Vedis The Home Lover in : Buy Coffee Tables , comments closedI have been waiting for this Dolce Dark Walnut Coffee Table
for 6 months and finally it is available.
I was a little worried about ordering it online after reading some of the other reviews. I thought it would arrive with damage, but to my surprise it was perfect.
I love this Dolce Dark Walnut Coffee Table and it is a beautiful match to the brown Cambridge armoire I bought a couple of months ago in store, and it was super easy to assemble.
I have one suggestion…buy the “sharpie” furniture colored pens from office depot because when and if you scratch the table, the darkest colored pen will cover the scratch to a tee. It won’t make the scratch go away, but it looks so much better colored in. Good Luck!
