Small spaces: how to make the most of every square foot without compromising on design

Living in small spaces doesn’t mean giving up on a stylish and functional environment. More and more people are choosing studios, compact apartments, or first homes with limited square footage. The good news is that smart design—combined with practical and visually appealing materials—makes it possible to make the most of every corner without sacrificing style.
In this context, ceramic tile has become a key resource: versatile, durable, and available in a wide range of finishes, it’s ideal for those seeking affordable solutions with high-impact results.
1. Visual order: the power of continuity
One of the keys to designing small spaces is maintaining visual continuity. Using the same type of tile on floors and selected walls creates a sense of spaciousness. Thanks to its durability and visual variety, ceramic is particularly well suited for this technique.
Myth-age collections, designed for contemporary living, offer formats that work on both floors and walls, helping to unify the space without overwhelming it.
2. Light tones, clean surfaces
Using ceramic in neutral or light shades—especially with a matte or soft satin finish—brings brightness and helps visually enlarge the space. Beige, pearl gray, and off-white are all excellent choices that also pair well with a variety of decorative elements.
Another advantage is low maintenance: ceramic is easy to clean, helping maintain that fresh, tidy look that small spaces benefit from.
3. Small pieces, big impact
In areas like the kitchen or bathroom, a textured or geometric ceramic tile can become a focal point. In smaller rooms, a single wall or even a narrow decorative strip can be enough to transform the space.
Myth-age offers lightweight, modern options that are easy to install and highly decorative, without the need for a full renovation.
4. Multifunctionality and aesthetics
An added advantage of ceramic is its versatility. It can be used on floors, walls, countertops, and even custom-made furniture like tiled tables or shelves. In small apartments, where every surface counts, choosing materials that combine function and style is essential.
Because it resists moisture and wear, ceramic is ideal for creating connected, multifunctional spaces—especially in lofts or open-concept homes.
5. Design within everyone’s reach
Myth-age ceramic has been developed with users in mind who are looking for practical, durable, and personality-driven solutions. It’s perfect for those furnishing their first home or renovating a small space.
Thanks to its variety of formats and finishes, it works well for both professional interior design projects and personal renovations.
Less space, more possibilities
Ultimately, creating a stylish and functional home in just a few square meters is entirely possible. With thoughtful decisions and the right materials—such as Myth-age ceramic—you can visually expand your space, maintain aesthetic balance, and enjoy an environment that reflects comfort and personal style.
Because making the most of every square foot doesn’t have to mean giving up on design.
