Natural light and smart space-planning turn 165 square feet into a multifunctional, spa-like retreat
When a young couple moved from Australia to the Little Italy district of Toronto, they found a charming home nearly 100 years old and chock-full of charm.

Turning to Houzz for advice, they quickly found Gloria Apostolou of post Architecture, who had a stellar vision for how to divide and conquer in the small space.
“Originally, they thought they wanted two rooms, and I showed them an option for that,” Apostolu says. “But with only 165 square feet to work with, I thought that dividing the one room into two spaces — without any walls, just millwork — might be a better solution. Luckily, they agreed.”

The Beatles have so many great songs, to the point that I`ve started to wonder how these four ordinary British blokes managed to write so many No.1 hits. As it turns out they were not so ordinary. Lennon and McCartney led the way in songwriting, crooning about love all the way to to the top of the charts.
The Beatles are without a doubt one of the most influential rock bands in the history of mankind. Radio stations still play their songs and their catchy lyrics never get old. Yesterday, Hey Jude, Penny Love, are just some of many songs you will hear on your everyday commute to work.
But they were also acheterdufrance.com so much more than a band; they were cultural icons. It goes without saying that Lennon, McCartney, Ringo, and Harrison were extremely talented individuals, well deserving of their place in history (see our illustration of rock music history here).
