Castlery is one of the mid-tier DTC furniture makers that actually seems to design for real people (see: an actually-attractive reclining sofa). They also skip the typical lead time and, often, markup you’ll see from other retailers in the budget-friendly band. There’s a certain universal appeal to the pieces, thanks to versatile shapes, tactile fabrics, and approachable case goods. And things usually look more expensive than they are. Case in point: Just take a gander at the Bruno Coffee Table in this story.
But one of the most impressive habits Castlery has a knack for is solving the standard small-space dilemma. Think: compact sofas that don’t overwhelm a room and smart accent pieces with built-in storage. Whether you’re rearranging a tight fit in your guest room or looking to make your studio apartment feel twice its size, these picks prove that great design doesn’t require a massive footprint or receipt.
Jonathan Armless Sofa
Tiny living room? No problem. The Jonathan’s streamlined frame allows you to use it as a single seat and build on the modular couch when you move into a larger space. It’s available in fabric or leather, and you can always add units with arms.
Bruno Side Table
We’re big fans of the coffee table version of the Bruno, but the chunky side table is just as worthy of attention. Available in two neutral hues, it’s a small but substantial accent (weighing in at 24 pounds) that sports an eye-catching glossy finish.

Agnes Slipcover Storage Ottoman
If you’re living with children or pets, here’s a slipcover ottoman that can stand alone or be added on to an Agnes sofa or sectional. Castlery offers the option to select a replacement cover as needed, and the storage function allows you to open the top and store throw pillows, blankets, or toys.

Harper Dining Table
Round tables tend to take up less space in homes, small (see a great example here) and large alike. This option, available in two different sizes, gets high marks for durability and looks, and will tuck right into a breakfast nook. Plus, the fluted design at the base adds a little flair without being flashy.
Hugg Nesting Square Coffee Table
This nesting coffee table hides spill-proof, upholstered poufs in plain sight. Whether you choose the two- or four-seater, simply pull them out when friends are over for game night and slip them under when not in use. Hugg would make a functional choice if you don’t have a traditional dining area—no more sitting on the floor for large parties.
Auburn Bouclé Storage Bed
From the soft bouclé fabric to the dreamy wingback headboard, you’ll be tempted to stay in the Auburn all day. And with generous hidden storage situated at the bottom, you won’t even need a dresser. Bonus? The fabric is spill-resistant (just in case you’re a breakfast-in-bed kind of person).
Amber Swivel Chair
Whether it’s used as an office or accent chair, this highly-rated swivel seat fits into the smallest of corners. At just 30 inches wide, and available in moss-hued performance fabric or boucle, you’ll be comfortable even with the compact shape. They’re available in pick sets of two, too.
Avery Boucle Ottoman
Slide this petite yet sturdy ottoman next to your sofa or accent chair—it can hold up to 330 pounds. Whether it’s your footstool during reading sessions or an extra seat for cocktail hour, the plush seat and performance fabric make for a cozy seat.
Joseph 3-Drawer Dresser
This narrow three-drawer dresser is just 28 inches wide, has integrated handles, and is available in a moody walnut veneer. It ships quick, arrives fully assembled, and sports a five-year limited warranty. Your new bedroom is just waiting for it.
