This couple has taken a small 420 sq. ft. Chicago apartment and given themselves so many amenities including this wonderful desk that converts out to a dining table.  Click here to see the rest of this beautiful space.

Joe and Brad have made great use of every inch of space in their small apartment. The use of plumbing pipe shelves in the living room not only adds a great feature to what could have been a bland room, they also create a desk and a dining table. A dining table?! Yep! The desk portion of the shelving unit pulls out from the wall and, with the insertion of a few leaves, extends to create a table that seats eight.

This is one of my favorite corners of our home because it is where my creativity thrives. If I am sitting in that chair, that means I am hard at work creating something. The cork board holds mementos of trips, inspirational photos, sweet cards from friends and invitations we’ve designed. The desk is Ikea- but I tampered with the legs to give a sleeker look. The shell chair was a gift from Chris.
