When you live in an apartment, every square foot counts. When the square footage is low and major alterations are prevented by a lease, it can be hard to design your space<\/a> in a way that\u2019s both aesthetically pleasing and pragmatic \u2014 not to mention possible. Luckily, the internet abounds in creative apartment dwellers and designers, many of them eager to share design tips, inspiration boards, and straight-up design porn. Here are some of the best:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Tiny Ass Apartment<\/strong><\/a>
    \nIrreverent and direct, Tiny Ass Apartment began as a response to \u201cblog after magazine article after catalogue and finding only ideas for those with huge houses and tons of disposable income.\u201d Founder Simone Chavoor\u2019s posts focus on small apartments and studios, and offer creative, cheap guides to making small spaces look great\u2026 on a budget.<\/li>\n
  2. Apartment Therapy<\/strong>
    \nThe aesthetic is clean, the photos are professional, and the posts are structured with an eye toward maximum readability. If you need \u201c5 Design Ideas for a Dated Mirrored Walls\u201d or \u201c50+ Solutions for a Small Space,\u201d Apartment Therapy\u2019s \u201cRenters Solutions\u201d is the blog for you.<\/li>\n
  3. In My Own Style<\/a><\/strong>
    \nThis blog contains concise, compulsively readable, and approachable DIY projects, with plenty of pictures. Many design blogs just display the finished product, but Diane Henkler shows the process, taking readers through each project step by step.<\/li>\n
  4. IKEA Hackers<\/a><\/strong>
    \nIKEA is great, but what\u2019s the old saying? Shop at IKEA, just make it look like you didn\u2019t? IKEA Hackers is a great resource for the IKEA-devotee who doesn\u2019t want his or her apartment to look like a showroom floor.<\/li>\n
  5. From Moon to Moon<\/a><\/strong>
    \nThis approachable and playful blog curates \u201ceclectic and bohemian interior design from around the web.\u201d The tone is personal and down-to-earth, as well as being budget conscious.<\/li>\n
  6. An Indian Summer<\/strong><\/a>
    \nWhimsical and playful, with gorgeous photographs, An Indian Summer is useful mostly as a place to gather inspiration. The popular blog is based on the subcontinent and features home designs from across the world \u2014 posts range from apartments in Stockholm to bed and breakfasts in Sri Lanka. Check out their instagram, too.<\/li>\n
  7. An Afternoon With<\/strong><\/a>
    \nCompulsively readable, An Afternoon With is structured as a series of interviews with designers, artists, and other hip media types who all seem to dress in flowy, comfortable fabrics and live in gorgeous, warm-looking lofts. Each interview takes the subject\u2019s living space as the primary subject, and though some of the questions and responses get a little airy, it\u2019s nice to see the person behind a design.<\/li>\n
  8. HomeJelly<\/strong><\/a>
    \nHomeJelly is geared toward homeowners and renters alike, and it\u2019s definitely focused on the pragmatic: DIY, crafting, and refurbishing. Chances are, you\u2019ll find inspiration for a new improvement here.<\/li>\n
  9. Apartment 34<\/strong><\/a>
    \nApartment 34 is about more than apartments \u2014 it\u2019s a lifestyle blog that also focuses on travel, food, and drink \u2014 but the best part of the site is focused on design. The professional photographs are worth drooling over, and the \u201cIdeas to Steal\u201d section makes it easy to pilfer inspiration from around the globe.<\/li>\n
  10. A Lovely Being<\/a><\/strong>
    \nThis one\u2019s more of a style blog \u2014 you\u2019re more likely to see vintage French advertisements than step-by-step guides to refinishing a dining room table \u2014 but it also frequently examines impeccable interiors, like Chloe Sevigny\u2019s apartment.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
