In Manila, you’re either living with your parents or slumming it in a condo so small, you keep tripping on everything you own. What's worse is you never have space for anything! Let's upgrade it, shall we? Here are some condo hacks:
1. Mirror, mirror
Put your mirrors opposite your window or light source. The light bounces off the mirror, creating a more open space.
2. Let the light in
Don’t use dark or heavy curtains. Let the light in–this creates more depth for the room.
3. Stack 'em up
The secret of maximizing any room is using a vertical storage system! Consider floating shelves.
4. Secret storage
Think double-duty: a set of stairs with hidden compartments? Win-win!
5. Rugs
Rugs can be used as a divider and can help create the illusion of having a bigger space or multiple rooms, even in a studio apartment.
