Hannah Fowler moved into a 410-square-foot studio apartment in Brooklyn. The small space made her more intentional about shopping and led to spending less money on unnecessary items. She invested in a few essentials, like a couch and rug, but stopped buying additional furniture. This change in spending habits allowed her to budget for other things, such as travel. Fowler now feels more confident about her choices and appreciates her apartment's authenticity and comfort.
