Modular multipurpose furniture designs don’t just save space, they also bring functionality to your interior design
Furniture is the backbone of interior design. It is a tool that facilitates design themes in a place and also helps to add comfort to homes. Furniture also helps in delineating areas in your place, giving character to each area. However, furniture is also one of the primary space-consuming design elements. Hence, it is of utmost importance to wisely choose your furniture pieces, especially when you have a limited space—which is quite common these days.
As most cities have smaller apartments, choosing furniture that smartly utilises your space does the trick. So, what do you do to save space and yet maintain class? You invest in multipurpose furniture designs. As the name suggests, these are new and innovative modular furniture designs with at least two functions. Also known as space-saving furniture, such multipurpose furniture for small spaces is just perfect.

A Bookshelf That Works As A Partition Between Rooms
These days, most apartments have open layouts. This helps in creating a more liberal and airy interior design for homes. In such arrangements, most areas overlap with each other. Hence, designers use furniture to delineate areas in open layout homes.

There are several partition elements that you can try. However, the most purposeful way of utilising the partition is by using a multipurpose partition design, as shown. The metallic partition piece is actually an open shelf unit that can help you display your artefacts, photo frames and indoor plants while delineating your open layout.
