Paris-based architecture firm Beth X Episteme, a/k/a Marie Fleur Same & Bertrand Harold Emgoue, were tasked with making a tiny Parisian flat livable. The space has just a kitchen, a bathroom and a single room. The pair used a number of space-saving tricks to wring maximum utility out of a few scant square meters.

The interior wall conceals a Murphy bed.

The platform supporting the bed features tons of storage.

One of the panels raises up to become a table.

The design is about "Optimizing space without compromising charm and comfort," the duo write. "An approach that enhances every square meter revealing the full potential of the place. Because living in a small space does not mean giving up on uniqueness."
