This has influenced the space use we make in the home, and the amount of time we spend in them. In some cases it can be simple, if you have a spacious home, you can allocate other spaces for different activities, but many times when we have a small or medium sized home, we think that the most efficient solution would be to move to another place with more space.

Take advantage of every space in the home, no matter how small
Another way is to use any hole in our home, and when combined with multifunctional furniture you will get a great spatial gain in your home, as I mentioned before, by being creative you will notice that your home has spaces that you are only using for decorative purposes.
The idea is to give it a functional touch and you will see how the possibilities increase, a clear example are the stairs, we usually think that the space that we allocate to the stairs only has one purpose, but we can easily connect it to give it many more uses, such as place shelves that match and have the same style as the ladder, or if you are more artist to create a study or display space for your trophies.
