Set high above the busy streets of Mandaluyong City in the Philippines, this tiny apartment is home to a family of five. Working within the original floorplan, architect Josef Karol Egwaras focused on enhancing the open layout by adding smarter furniture and storage solutions throughout, including a versatile foldout dining table and expandable double sofa bed. In the bedroom, a raised platform bed cleverly conceals a pull out mattress for the youngest child and is surrounded by built in storage, including a neat work from home nook. Drawing inspiration from the family's much loved colourful gravel bikes, Egwaras chose to echo three primary colours — forest green, mustard yellow and terracotta — in the apartment. These recurring hues are used to signify each child, identify individual storage areas and add personality and vibrancy to the thoughtfully designed small space.
