Inspired design turns small homes into tiny treasured spaces.

Small Space, Big Style : Episode HSSBS-407 -- More Projects »
There are tiny treasured spaces all over the United States. Visit a lavender apartment with amazing views in New York City, meet a Boston resident who took inspiration from nautical design, check out a retro-modern space in Philadelphia and learn how salvaged materials help furnish a cabin outside San Francisco.

Purple Palace
New Yorker Wendy Kornreich turned a 1960s cookie-cutter apartment into an Austin Powers pad for a bachelorette. With the help of architect Gideon Gelber, she incorporated style, storage and luxury throughout her apartment: a lavender color palette, two walk-in closets and a three- by seven-foot bathtub. In a city known for micro apartments, Kornreich managed to fit it all into 1,000 square feet!

Entryway Intrigue
Next: Dining Table Centerpiece
Entryways are often untapped spaces. Kornreich makes the most of her space with a niche that houses a couple of drawers for keys, cellphone and restaurant menus. A big, pink barn door hides this walk-in closet that serves as a coat closet, supply closet and wine cellar. One way she manages her busy lifestyle is to keep things organized at home. Even simple things can make an entryway more functional. Add shelves to create a place to catch sunglasses, keys and mail on your way in. A mirror increases light and the feeling of spaciousness and gives you one last look on your way out.
