Arrangement of a small living room in an apartment building - proven ways for a functional and stylish interior
- by Daniel Pawlik
Arranging a small living room in a block of flats requires cleverness to make the space cozy and multifunctional without feeling cramped. At Pillovely, we combine minimalism with nature, offering compact sofas and corner sofas that optically enlarge the interior.
How to arrange a small living room? Start with light walls in beige or grey, which reflect light and add airiness – this is the basis for arranging a small living room in a block of flats. Choose multifunctional furniture, such as the Lento 2-seater sofa bed measuring 180x140 cm, ideal for flats up to 20 m².
LED track lighting and mirrors above the sofa amplify the space, and a muted rug anchors the whole. At Pillovely, the July 2-seater sofa bed fits studio apartments, combining relaxation with practicality. How to arrange a small living room step by step: measure carefully, prioritize vertical shelves, and avoid bulky cabinets.

Small living room inspirations draw from optics: tall shelves up to the ceiling and glass instead of heavy doors visually enlarge the room. Place the Olemo Abresso corner sofa with sleeping function in an L-shape, with a DL unfolding mechanism to 138x210 cm – its light fabrics and slender legs do not overwhelm the block.
Small living room inspirations in a block of flats also include vertical decorations: poster galleries and hanging lamps, such as above a coffee table from the Pillovely collection. Add decorative pillows in natural shades for warmth without chaos. These tricks for arranging a small living room in a block of flats make 15 m² look like 20.
Small living room modern arrangements are based on minimalism: one star –
Kamelia sofa in white or Lunaria in grey, with modules for reorganization. Bright wall colors with a touch of green on the July sofa create hygge in the block.
Clever solutions such as the Francessco corner sofa with hidden storage accommodate blankets and remotes, saving space. Small living room modern arrangements gain from multifunctionality – a coffee table with drawers and a wall-mounted TV. At Pillovely, these sets inspire modern arrangements.

Small living room in a block of flats inspirations mean multifunctionality: the Agi corner sofa with sleeping function turns the living room into a guest bedroom. The arrangement of a small living room in a block of flats benefits from light – Roman blinds and LED lighting in niches.
Practical tricks: visible sofa legs for lightness, as in Lento, and green accents for relaxation. Small living room arrangements in a block of flats with the Ballo TV cabinet hide cables, maintaining order. Discover corner sofas with sleeping function and get inspired by the Pillovely blog.
The arrangement of a small living room in a block of flats concludes with details: Pillovely pillows with flora motifs add personality without clutter. These inspirations make a block flat living room a stylish haven.
