Maximising the floor plan
The original unit already had a raised floor, but the irregular shape created pockets of unusable dead space. In a small apartment, every inch of space is valuable. To fix this, we extended the raised area and within it created a built-in dining nook (seen in the kitchen photos below), planter and steps to the balcony outside. This reduced the need for loose furnishings, significantly increasing the usable space in the property.

Smart kitchen design - not just more aesthetic but functionally superior
The original kitchen extended only part way along the back wall. We replaced it with a new one that extended the full length of the wall, increasing the number of cupboard sections from 1.25 to 3. We also moved the oven to the back wall and in its place created an open-filled breakfast bar, with the newly extended raised floor area fitted with a built-in seating nook for efficient use of space.

Bedroom designed for good sleep
We emphasise bedroom design that encourages healthy sleep patterns. In this case, the removal of the drywall enclosure removed a sense of entrapment that was felt when in the bedroom. A custom in-built boucle bed frame and headboard add to the cloud-like feeling when sleeping here. You also get the added benefit of natural sunlight flooding through the glass into the bedroom which no longer makes the space feel cramped, dark and uncomfortable.
