How to Create a Multi-Functional Room

WELL-DESIGNED ROOMS OFFER FLEXIBILITY AND COMFORT

Whether you are working with an open floor plan, optimizing a smaller space or just spending more time at home, multi-functional rooms can provide the flexibility you need while still offering a clean, streamlined design.

EVALUATE THE USE OF YOUR SPACE

Start by considering what you’ll use the room for and how often. For instance, if you’ll use it as a home office 80% of the time and a guest room 20% of the time, you’ll want to prioritize the office part of the space, using perhaps a sleeper sofa that can double as a guest bed.

Use lighting to define spaces within a room, in particular when you have an open floor plan.

HELPFUL TIPS TO KEEP IN MIND

While smart devices can definitely help keep you safer, remember to clean and disinfect them on a regular basis.

Invest in storage furniture to keep your space from looking cluttered, and don't overlook vertical space.
