Since living in an apartment often means limited space and a limited sense of control over how you can decorate, it's important to fill your home with things that are beautiful, functional, and non-permanent. The best gift for someone who lives in an apartment fits that stylish but easy sensibility, and it's great to find something that's functional but can double as decor! Whether their style leans more towards the classic, sleek, and elegant, or the custom, fun, and quirky, there are plenty of gifts that you can give to your apartment-living friends - or maybe even get for yourself.
Finding the right apartment gift is about balancing style with the limitations of the small space. Just because space is at a premium, though, doesn't mean that apartment living is doomed to a life of clutter or minimalism! These gifts offer up stylish ways to take care of must-haves, from coffee to serving pieces to decor and more. Keep reading to get some great ideas for the best apartment presents you can find right now!
