When working with small spaces try to utilize the spaces as best as you can and make the space have a consistent flow.
In this small condo we used industrial finishes such as a bookcase made of metal pipes and wood planks. We repeated the style in the office with the desk and a hanging bookcase above the desk. The owner is going for a light laminated wood floor throughout the space except for tile in the bathroom and carpet in the bedroom.
To maximize storage space I stacked 39 inch and 30 inch cabinets to give them more storage and use the height of the space. I also used a lazy-Susan in the corner for the base cabinet and the upper cabinet. The pantry is to the left of the refrigerator to give the refrigerator a built in look with a cabinet above. Black granite top was used on the L-shaped counter. The 3 foot by 6 foot island has a bar on two sides with butcher block counters top. Modern stools in black and stainless were used to complete the look. The island also has a pull out trash cabinet, a wine fridge, and a cabinet.
The living room has a custom bookcase made out of pipes and wood planks at 8' high on the north wall. The east wall has a flat screen TV mounted on the wall.

In the office we opted to go with a custom corner desk, that has a box-box file pedestal and a file & file pedestal on the left hand returned. As with the living room we used a pipe and wood bookcase but hung it from the ceiling and wall over the desk. The desk is made from steel and wood planks. Using the same industrial theme. We left the space open for projects and when guest come an air mattress can easily fit in the middle of the room. The owner is replacing the existing sliding doors with French glass doors.
