Studio Apartment Layout Ideas That Will Make Your Studio Flow Beautifully

Thank you for watching! If you live in a studio, do any of these layouts match yours? And if you don't live in a studio, which one of these layouts do you think you would want in your hypothetical studio?

I don't live in a studio apartment. But if I did I would use a room devider!

THANK YOU for acknowledging that TVs are a necessity for a lot of us! I know some people brag that they don't even own a TV (eyeroll) but in my experience that just means they watch TV on their laptop, which is no fun IMO! I don't care if it makes me a couch potato or whatever, I need my TV for binge-watching and video games! (Love how you snuck in a Zelda reference too with the triangle) :)

Hi Steffi! I recently moved from a 250sqft efficiency that I had set up in the couch divider style. The bed was in line with the door, so at the foot of the bed, I used a small open bookcase to block the view I'd the bed, as well as define a small office area.

I have the couch divider in my studio! By far the fav since it gives you zones! ❤

Hi Steffi and Helo! I love your layouts because you use actual pictures of your ideas rather than pencil drawings. I have always wanted to live in a studio apartment, but they are extremely difficult to find where I live. I especially like the Stack and the Couch Divider configurations. Your studio apartment was my dream studio, so the Couch Divider looked great there. You have such an entertaining way of sharing your ideas with us. I love Sundays , mostly because of you! Bye Helo!

Hey, Steffi! I enjoy all of your content, but I specifically enjoy these types of videos you create. This type of content really gives me so many ideas. I really like that LA studio, it is so cute! My favorite layout for a studio is the triangle. The stacked layout and couch divider layout is also really nice. I feel both of those layouts gives a bit more of that distinct section feel from "bedroom" to "living room."

If I had no choice but to live in a tiny studio apartment, I would set up the living room area so it was nearest the windows to get natural sunlight and would have the bedroom area farthest away from the windows so I could take a daytime nap in semi darkness. I would probably have just an adult size twin bed to minimize the floor space taken up by the bedroom area and raise that bed frame on risers to have storage space underneath. I would place some bookcases or closet storage units from Ikea, back-to-back, to make a head-height temporary wall between the living room area and the bedroom area and give me plenty of storage space. I would keep the kitchenette counter clear of everything and maybe even hang some sheer curtains from the ceiling to hide this area. Some large mirrors leaning against the walls of the living room area could make that space appear larger. I would limit the furniture in the living room area to two comfortable club chairs, a large rectangular ottoman to serve as a coffee table or extra seating and a couple of tiny side tables to hold drinks if I had visitors. I would keep the size of the wall-mounted TV to a minimum and hide it behind a tapestry or other art work when not in use. I would have a lap top computer I could stow away behind a club chair instead of using a space-hogging computer desk. I would have lots of tall potted plants sitting on the floor in front of the windows, shorter plants on the window sills and trailing plants hanging in baskets from the ceiling to act as living curtains. That temporary wall between the living and bedroom areas would serve as a privacy screen when I changed clothes in the bedroom area. If I absolutely needed a printer, I would probably place it on the kitchenette counter top, hidden behind sheer curtains. I would keep my clothing, shoes, accessories and other belongings to a carefully edited minimum and all of it stowed out of sight to reduce visual clutter. I would do minimal cooking in that tiny apartment so the carpeting and fabrics would not stink with cooking odors. The wall of plants in the living room area would help keep the trapped air in the tiny apartment fresh and oxygenated.

Hi, I am currently building mine, it's a kitchen, bedroom and bathroom and now I enjoy watching these kind of videos, so my kitchen is separate, then it's my bedroom, and my bathroom, sort of in a straight line, with dividers

My very first place all my own was a studio that had been (probably illegally) converted from the master bedroom of the place next door. The adjoining door was still there, just sealed, and my one door and only window was a sliding glass door to the walkway. It didn't have the space for any of these lovely layouts. I furnished it much like my old bedroom, just with a kitchenette and a bathroom attached. I loved it and often still think about it! Studios can be the best!

That TV mount pulls out to face the couch

I'm new to your channel, video was inspiring and helpful! So where i live is what used to be a hotel, and the last one is my scenario, not to my liking but what i was given. The layout is like a short L, entrance - right side ac closet/left side bed/couch , to the right of entrance, bookshelf/tv/computer unit; wall to the right of window, a plant - had some flooding in that spot so not wanting to put anything really valuable; I'm the minimalist-type who loves to see the hardwood floor; maybe a long rug under the bed/couch.

Haha! Hilo... Harlet... Steffi, I have a one bedroom, however I use my bedroom as an office/storage space. I like the couch divider setup. However I kinda use the hotel set up. What I did was used my coffee table as a divider, and built a custom credenza out of a headboard. I store folding seating in for visitors.

I looooove your kitty kitty!

I only know one thing: If I ever move into a studio again, I will get a Murphy Bed. I lived in 3 Studios: a 17m2Mikroapartment with the concret floor and white modern Buildins of Doom (no possibility to even move a desk around - they have been boltet to the walls , a 12 m2 shoebox, a 24 m2 with doormlike furniture (and in every single one I lived with my Partner - even during the pandemic, with a cosy 120cm wide single bed for us) and I just wished that I coould have gotten my own furniture with a little bit more possibility to do as I please. We live in a big Appartment now, but I gladly would live in a studio, if I could choose my own furniture .

What a great video! Loved this one!

I live in a studio apartment but luckily who ever built designed it built in half of a false wall height wise that is separating a small nook bedroom area from the living room area. Kitchens separate room

Hii Steffi! My apartment is almost a studio apartment haha it's really small. Thanks for the tips!

Another great video, Steffi! You gave me a wonderful idea I'd never thought of, although it would involve having a love seat or smaller sofa in front of a closet door with the tv in some piece of furniture in front of a radiator. Okay, not the greatest idea, but something new to consider! I had no idea that after living in a one bedroom apartment for almost 5 years that I'd be living in what you call The Hotel Room style apartment. Yikes. The challenges. Working on all of them, and now trying to accommodate a recording area for voiceovers. Just difficult, not impossible! Thank you, as always, for the inspiration!!💗

Love that cat❤❤
