Jonas Wisser's Profile

I've just moved into an unfurnished studio apartment—my first unfurnished apartment out of college—and I'm about to begin furnishing it. Calling it an apartment is actually being far too kind; other than a small bathroom with a tiny shower stall and a fairly significant walk-in closet (which I plan to use partly for storage), it's essentially a 12'x13' room. One of the walls is actually a kitchenette complete with fridge, sink, counter space, and range, so the cooking space is essentially taken care of.

I'm currently planning to purchase a futon and a small corner computer desk (in the latter case, I'm beginning to feel I may need to build the one I want), but I'm curious to know what else people have done to make the best of truly tiny homes. Also, I'm aiming for a modern feel, but I don't have access to an Ikea and I live in a small town—does anyone have suggestions for online shopping?
