Dual-purpose furniture ideal for space-starved condo-dwellers – and their pals in need of a weekend crash pad
Condo living room furniture is all about blending style with function, especially in space-starved homes. From modular wall systems to versatile sleeper sofas, these clever designs ensure you’re ready for everyday comfort and weekend guests alike.
Cushion by Areaware
This charming English bulldog pillow is as huggable as a real canine – with no kibble required. Designer Ross Menuez’s Fauna collection includes organic-cotton cushions silkscreened with the portraits of a dozen other breeds, including a Dalmation, schnauzer and more. Fear not, cat lovers – feline versions are also available. $50, at Rolo
Copenhagen by BoConcept
Configure this modular wall system to show off your art books and tchotchke collection while keeping unsightly cables hidden behind closed doors. Choose from ash-grey or matte-white MDF cabinetry and a range of door finishes. $8020, at BoConcept
Twilight by Softline
Provide a comfortable place for out-of-towners to crash, even in a small condo living room, with this aluminum-framed sleeper sofa, the perfect dual-purpose furniture. Simply push back the bolster pillow and fold down the top cushion to create a dreamy queen-sized bed. $2760, at Design Within Reach
Mid-century coffee table by West Elm
This walnut-veneered number’s pop-up top reveals hidden storage space while doubling as a tray for laptops or TV dinners. Stash a selection of eclectic coasters in the open shelf, or keep glasses confined to the glossy marble leaf to avoid drink-ring stains altogether. $840, at West Elm
Lana by Pablo
Thanks to a magnetic mount, this LED floor lamp’s wool felt shade can be tilted, slid, or even detached and re-mounted to the back of the steel frame. The height-adjustable circular ledge is the perfect spot to rest a mug while reading that new book-club pick, making it an ideal furniture addition, especially for a small condo living room. From $595, at LightForm
