A studio apartment is the perfect living arrangement for many, especially college students or those just getting their careers off the ground. While having only a single space to work with can seem simultaneously cramped and too open, there are some things you can do to carve out a bedroom—even if you don’t have a lot of square footage to work with. Here are several helpful tips for creating your own floor plan.

5 Tips for Dividing Your Studio Into Separate Rooms

1. Hang Curtains

If you’d like to create a little separation and conceal your sleeping area, hanging curtains can divide the room without making it feel small or cramped. A curtain track across the ceiling allows you to draw the curtains back or close them, changing the layout of the room according to your mood.

2. Install a Half-Wall

A removable partition between your bed and the rest of the room creates a sophisticated appearance and a visual divider without interrupting sightlines. It’s also temporary, making it a convenient option if your landlord doesn't allow permanent changes to the property.

3. Work With Visual Cues

Sometimes, you don’t even need a physical barrier to create a sense of two different spaces. For instance, a distinct wallpaper around the bed will create the illusion of a distinct space from the rest of the studio apartment, even if there’s no divider through the middle of the room.

4. Buy a Standing Bookcase

Using a bookcase as a room divider gives you more storage and creates a separate bedroom area, while still letting light and air move through the space. Bookcases with irregular patterns or geometric designs will add a bit of visual interest to your apartment.

5. Hide the Bed Completely

Installing a wall bed essentially allows you to make your studio apartment into two rooms, depending on the configuration. If you have guests over, the bed can be completely hidden, maximizing space until you pull it down at night.
