Never again compromise on style or function. This simple guide from award-winning interior stylist Sofie Hepworth (@threeboysandapinkbath) provides 10 straightforward strategies to maximise compact spaces and create your dream home.

These days, our homes need to be multi-purpose, with uses across our public and private lives, including:

• dining together
• entertaining guests
• working from home
• resting and relaxing
• working out and training

Small spaces can make this a challenge. But it’s all about your perspective. In 2020, Sofie Hepworth designed and built a tiny home for her family of four. She transformed a 450-square-foot shed into a stylish, practical and joyful family home. ‘You accumulate so much stuff in life you don’t actually need, and it’s not all about space if you have a well-thought-out space.’

Small Space, Big Living distils Sofie’s hard-won wisdom into 10 simple rules for small-space design. Say goodbye to cramped, crowded homes and hello to beautifully curated interiors that make big lives in small spaces comfortable and attractive.

With busy, multi-faceted lives, we need home spaces that are practical but also beautiful. A home should reflect your personality and lift your spirits. It should be a welcoming hug when you return and should feel easy to be in. This book is the ultimate blueprint for those looking to live small but dream big.
