Editorial Policy
How we research, write, test, and correct what we publish.
Who writes this
SmallSpace Home is written and maintained by Badreddine Br, an independent home decor writer specialising in small-space living for Canadian renters. Every guide is thoroughly researched and reviewed before publishing. See the About page for more.
How we research and write
Every guide starts from a real constraint — a small kitchen, a rented living room, a closet with no organizer system — and works through solutions researched carefully from Canadian retailers (IKEA Canada, Amazon.ca, HomeSense, Wayfair Canada, Canadian Tire, Structube) so prices and availability are accurate for a Canadian audience, not adapted from US content.
Every piece of advice, every price, and every product recommendation is reviewed before publishing — nothing goes live unchecked.
Product recommendations
We recommend specific products (often IKEA or Amazon.ca items) because they're genuinely useful for small Canadian apartments, not because of a paid placement. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases made through some links on this site — this never changes which products we recommend or how we rank them. Any post containing affiliate links discloses this clearly near the top of that article.
Corrections and updates
Prices, retailer stock, and product availability change. If you spot something outdated or incorrect, let us know — we update posts when we confirm an error, and note significant changes in the post's "last updated" date rather than silently editing published claims.
What we don't do
- We don't publish staged, unrealistic "after" photos we haven't actually recreated in a real small space.
- We don't inflate prices or omit cheaper alternatives to make a paid product look better.
- We don't accept payment in exchange for a positive review.
