Studio apartments are small and cozy, but breaking up a space into specific sections can make a place more usable, such as having a separated bedroom and living room. Occupants can use a large bookcase to separate rooms. Curtains are an easy way to create a non-permanent wall to section out a studio. Occasionally a dresser can be used to signify a bedroom from a living room. Rugs can create the idea of separate areas of a room to better manage a space.
