Due to the soaring housing prices, many people were forced to renovate their existing apartments instead of selling and buying bigger ones. And the apartment featured in this post is one of those successful transforming examples. This owner decided to transform her studio apartment into a 1 bedroom, including storage units, a large separate kitchen and a full size queen bedroom. To achieve the request, the design team chose to condense all the programmatic functions and storage units into a cube which was centered in the middle of the space, thus dividing the apartments into 4 zones, while maintaining a 360 degree circulation around it, which makes the space seem endless and bigger than it actually is. By adding sliding doors that disappear into the cube, the space can be altered according to the time of day and the various needs of the owner, contributing further more to the sense of a multifunctional space. You can see the dramatic changes by comparing the before/after layout of the apartment. This is a really ingenious and innovative idea and make the space so much bigger. [source]
