Multifunctional furniture and loft spaces can really add dimension to a small home but what if we combine the two? A raised platform with storage space will allow you to make the most of your square feet and add function to every inch of space. Raised platforms are good for two things – storage and space division, so you can build in some drawers or hide additional furniture there while using its top for something entirely different. Thus a single platform can transform one room into two or even three functional areas plus storage space for everything you need. Platforms can be used everywhere, from a bedroom to a kid’s room, they can act as space dividers, for storage, seating, emphasizing some areas and so on – just look at the ideas below and see how to use them right!
Decorative Platforms
A decorative platform may be placed in any space: a living room, a dining space, a bathroom or a bedroom, this is a cool way to highlight the area. It may be made of concrete, plywood, wood, stone, marble and any other materials that are proper for your space and match the decor style. If it’s a bathroom, such a platform will also keep your space from any splashes and water that may spoil it.
