Compact Pastel-Toned Living Spaces

Mini Living and Studiomama Show Off Design-Forward Micro Living

— April 24, 2018 — Art & Design
There is an installation this year at Milan Design Week that showcases the joys of micro living. Highlighting the comfort of spatially economical arrangements and the tranquil effect of pastel tonalities, MINI Living and Studiomama develop four compact small quarters to suit four distinct personalities.

While the blue unit is designed for a music producer and features a sound-proof recording room, the yellow micro living abode is created for a lover of botany, boasting shelves with home decor and plants. The pink has a studio for a pattern cutter and the green accommodates a pottery collector. The MINI x Studiomama installation is intended to highlight that although micro living units are gaining more popular, there is still room for customization to suit the owner's personality.
