You don’t have an extended family network to fall back on, or you just don't want to impose on them. You also don't have excess cash to pay rent for a full apartment, yet you need a place of your own. Studio apartments are the answer.
A studio apartment is very modest in size, with a small, basic kitchen, a toilet and a room that functions as a combined living room, dining room and bedroom. These types of units are common in crowded cities, such as Hong Kong, where space is premium. Dhaka is in dire need of the same.
Tips and tricks for decorating your studio apartment:
Lack of adequate light can affect your mood. Parting the drapes and adding plenty of light fixtures will help you sleep better and stay positive. The whole idea is to make your studio apartment look complete despite having limited space. If a table, chair and lamp constitute a reading area in a corner, go one step further by defining that smaller space with a rug and framed print. Vertical storage on the walls allows you to free up valuable space on your floor (which is sparse) by mounting everything from your bike (literally) to your jewellry. Opt for furnishing items that do double-duty. Example: Some footstools or seating cubes open to provide handy storage. To avoid giving your studio apartment a messy look, provide open spaces which will allow the eye to rest, and be selective about the objects you display.As a growing economy, we see more and more young people joining the white-collar workforce. With many family units no longer conforming to the traditional definition of a household, a lot of frustrated individuals and young couples are desperately looking for an affordable address to call their own.
