There are some very clever combination furniture pieces being designed of late, perfect for minimalists and anyone living in a tiny apartment. We once thought that, no matter how small the home, each room needed to be separate and hold its own function but...what if we turned that idea on its head and made one room serve two completely separate needs?
Here are five room combinations you never knew could work so well together.
1. Living Room + Bedroom
These combinations are perfect for tight schedules and tight living arrangements. Particularly small inner city living where single rooms require your everyday living to combine into one. Hang a curtain in the corner of your living room to separate the "bedroom" area and give your sleeping quarters a private and cosy wall that previously didn't exist. You will also be able to happily invite friends and family over without feeling the need to make your bed or hide your pyjamas every time.
2. Dining Room + Office
This is a combination that makes sense for those that work from home and still want to be part of the family rather than locked away in a small, uninspiring space. You may need visual and verbal stimulation to make your day more productive or you're a busy Mum or Dad who needs to keep an eye on the kids as you work. Consider a large bookcase with doors or a buffet unit as your storage or pack away area. Your guests would never know that where you are serving them your latest recipe was also used as the place that you sent out your latest work proposal.

3. Kitchen + Dining Room
Adding a tall dining table and chairs set helps you prepare and serve your food right where you are cooking. Your guests will love feeling like part of the process and you can still join in the conversation as you swap dinner over for dessert. Even taking the dishes to the sink becomes a communal even and as they say "Many hands make light work."
4. Home Theatre + Toy Room
The perfect solution for Dads who need a little bit of "man" time and kids who need a place for all those large toys—the ones grandparents buy to outdo each other, you know the ones! Theatre rooms are a luxury but, when combined with a toy room, provide the perfect space for the big andlittle kids in your life. Give him surround sound, heavy (but stylish!) blackout curtains and a large screen and it will not matter how many toys are left on the floor or up on the chair next to him; he will be in bliss. Now add surround sound to The Wiggles, plus the train set and doll's house and now the kids are also taken care of for at least...20 minutes. Now, that leaves you with time for yourself. (I guess surround sound doesn't sound like such a waste of money after all.)
5. Laundry Room + Bathroom
Finally, a space that can be merged in a heartbeat if space is at a premium. Having a laundry in an apartment is an ultimate luxury so putting it in your bathroom is genius. There are some fantastic washer/dryer combos in the market, which could cut the total time you spend doing the washing in half, plus this would allow you to spend your dollars on one lot of plumbing and one lot of tiling in a renovation (plus the tradie situation). You might also consider replacing the bathroom sink with alaundry unit to make the space even more conducive. Are you adding a new bedroom into your home? Moving the laundry to the bathroom could be the answer to not changing the footprint of your plans too much, while adding another room. This is a perfect solution to renovating for profit.
Remember in all these combinations, storage is usually the key. Make the space storage-friendly and suited to the space and you will make each merge of rooms work in harmony.
