Get luxe-for-less, small space decorating tips from Houmed Arjomand of Gluckstein Design Planning, who transformed his 600-square-foot builder-basic condo into a cosy and classic space reminiscent of a Victorian manor. Tour his living room, complete with an art wall and generous seating for entertaining, a dark-painted bedroom and the wallpapered kitchen. Plus, how do you design a clean and bright kitchen that looks far larger than its footprint? Designer Ingrid Oomen tells all in her classic bistro-style space.
