A studio apartment, also known as a studio flat (UK), efficiency apartment or bachelor/bachelorette style apartment, is a self-contained, small apartment, which combines living room, bedroom and kitchenette into a single unit, barring a bathroom. "Bachelor" or "efficiency" apartments are sometimes smaller than studio apartments. In British usage, a studio flat has its own bathroom; a single room with cooking facilities and a shared bathroom is known as a bedsit. Studio, efficiency, and bachelor style apartments all tend to be the smallest apartments with the lowest rents in a given area, usually ranging around 300 to 600 square feet (25-60 square meters). These kinds of apartments typically consist of one large room which serves as the living, dining, and bedroom. Kitchen facilities may be located in the central room, and the bathroom is often in its own smaller room. United StatesA variation common in New York City is the "L-shaped" or "alcove" studio, in which the central room branches off into a small alcove that can be used for sleeping or dining. SingaporeStudio apartments, in the context of Singapore's public housing, are flats that are specifically built by the Housing and Development Board to cater to the growing senior citizen population, although there is growing popularity among young working singles.

Asked by Shana - Tue May 23 13:30:21 2006 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. I agree with the earlier answer... you definitely want things that serve more than one purpose. When I had my first studio apartment, I used a shogi screen (japanese rice paper screen, very inexpensive) to give my bed area some privacy. But you can also get a futon that doubles as a sofa. Have your tv in a wall mount tv stand (if your studio apt permits it), this way you can watch it from anywhere in the space. Keep the color and lighting, bright and airy so you feel like you have more room. I have also saw a studio with a walkin closet converted into a bedroom! There is a great show on HGTV called 'Small Spaces'. I bet you can go to their website for some great ideas as well. I included their link below.

My boyfriend and I have just moved into a studio apartment together (500sq ft) with a small patio. Any good tips to make better use of the space, and keep our sanity in such a small apartment?

Use all the closet space you have, but make sure it is organized in containers and labeled. Shoes can be put in shoe organizers that hang on backs of doors. Use an ottoman (sorry for the spelling) and have it hold movies, CD's, picture albums, whatever you will need in the living room. In the bathroom use an over the toilet cabinet for towels and personal items. If the sink doesn't have cabinets, then put a curtain around it and place a storage container under it. Use the patio as your retreat. Put some lounge chairs on it, and a little grill and some pretty potted plants, and use it to get away.
