Space may be limited but style is not in these three deluxe studio apartment interiors. Tour number one takes us to the emerald green and earthy brown home of a musician. Apartment number two offers up a gutsy charcoal and chocolate decor scheme with white and wood tone to lighten and brighten. Finishing up in home number three we visit a smooth grey and white interior, capped with a grey ceiling. All of the layouts approach an open plan bedroom in a slightly different way; see how to fashion a glass wall bedroom, a slimline bedroom screen, and a sleeping capsule with a sculptural dividing wall and a portiere for privacy.
Flashes of emerald green strike through this earthy brown living room, which was designed for a young couple. The 50 square meter flat has music themed decor, with a special section of the room separated off for the purpose of playing and displaying a guitar collection.

The visual divide between the music area and the lounge is achieved by cladding the guitar display wall in rich wood and slightly raising the floor height, like a stage – perfect for the home of a musician. Colourful art decorates the lounge wall, alongside an en vogue swing arm wall lamp, which is the Flos Mod 265 style lamp. Original is available here.
