The average apartment size in Bangladesh is about 1,000 square feet, which is much lower than the global average of 1,600 square feet. This means that you have to make the best use of every inch of your space, and that can be challenging.
Here are some tips and tricks on how to make your small space work for you with multipurpose furniture and accessories. These items can serve more than one function, saving you space and money.
What is Multipurpose Furniture?
Multipurpose furniture is not the name of any specific furniture. Any type of furniture that can serve more than one function or purpose is multipurpose furniture. For example, A sofa bed can give you both a living room and bedroom without sacrificing comfort. A coffee table that turns into a dining table saves space and hassle. A bookshelf that folds into a desk offers a convenient workspace.
You can also find multipurpose furniture that has special features such as hidden storage compartments, built-in lighting, or smart technology. If you are looking for some multipurpose furniture ideas, you can check out these amazing SmartFit options from Hatil.

Sofa bed for a dual-purpose living room and bedroom
A sofa bed is a great option for small spaces because you can use this as a comfortable seating area during the day and a cozy sleeping bed at night. 
You can choose from Hatil’s collection of sofa beds that come in different sizes, colors, and designs. Some of them also have storage compartments underneath or behind them.

Creating a DIY loft space to make use of high ceiling
Have a small space with high ceilings? Make a DIY loft! It’s like an upper room accessed by a ladder or stairs. Sleep up top, and underneath, create a cozy living area, study spot, or closet. Build a strong loft bed, add curtains, lights, and shelves for your style.
Using a modular central table to enhance your living room
You can use these as a regular central table, or you can rearrange it to create more space, storage, or seating options. One of the best examples of a modular central table is the Pigeon-167 from Hatil. It is a center table with storage that is made from kiln-dried imported beech wood and veneered engineered wood. 
It has a high-quality environment-friendly Italian ultraviolet (UV) and polyurethane (PU) lacquer in antique (outside) and natural (inside) finish. It also has imported high-quality hardware fittings that ensure durability and stability. It has four modules that can be pulled out from the main unit to reveal hidden storage compartments.
Folding bookshelf for expandable storage space and desk
A folding bookshelf can be folded or unfolded to change its size and shape. You can use it as a regular bookshelf or you can fold it out to use it as a desk when you want to study or work. You can also fold it up completely when you want to save space or move it around.
How to Choose Multipurpose Furniture Small Space?
There are very few furniture brands in Bangladesh that offer such modern, smart furniture for homes. Here are some tips to help you choose the right multipurpose furniture for small space:
-
- Measure your space
Before you buy any furniture, make sure you measure your space carefully and note the dimensions of the walls, doors, windows, and other features. This will help you avoid buying furniture that is too big or too small for your space.
-
- Plan your layout
Measure your space, then decide how to arrange furniture and their purposes. Consider daily activities; for instance, a table in the living room could double as a dining spot and work desk if you work from home.
-
- Look for versatility
When shopping for multipurpose furniture, choose pieces that can do many things or change easily. Look for sofas turning into beds, tables extending or folding, shelves rotating or sliding, and more.
-
- Consider quality
While multipurpose furniture can help you save money in the long run, don’t compromise on quality when buying them. Look for furniture that is durable, sturdy, easy to use, and easy to clean.
