I love how Japan has thousands of handy inventions for storage space, cleaning and house appliances for small apartments, and you can get them easily even from 100 yen shops.
In Finland, living in a small house is expected only from students as a temporary housing situation. Then, you are to find a spouse and move in together with them (the earlier the better). If you break up, you are to find another spouse and live together with them. You are also expected to buy a house as soon as possible. All storage systems are meant for family size houses with family income prices.
Because small housing is expected to be only temporary, I enviously watch all videos of storage tips from East-Asia, and try to replicate them the best way I can for my 25m²/269ft² apartment with what I can find here.

Wara ningyô (straw doll) kept at Tono Museum.
Those effigies were once hung on ropes (michikiri) by roadsides and village entrances to ward off evil spirits bringing pestilence (疫病神 yakubyôgami). They were sometimes accessorized, like this one bearing a daishô (katana set) and a fearsome (oni?) face mask.
Waraningyô are also a staple of folk magic alike voodoo dolls, especially those related to eerie uchi no toki mairi ("Ox-hour shrine visits", ie witching hour).

Whenever in Osaka, if I can't go to a big temple, there's always this small one near my friend's house. I typically pay it a visit each time.
