Whether you’re living alone or living with a partner, renting a studio can be a cost-effective way to live in an expensive city like Los Angeles. Typically speaking, studios are more affordable than one bedroom apartments, while still offering ample space to unwind and relax after a long day. 

Studio apartments can also be a lot easier and cheaper to furnish ( if the unit happens to be unfurnished), because you need fewer pieces to fill up the space. To make it easy for you to find an excellent place to live, we’ve put together this comprehensive list of brand new studio apartments for rent in Los Angeles.

The Harper

The Harper is a brand new, luxury apartment building located in the heart of Koreatown. The interior of the building features beautifully curved motifs and stunning natural light, designed to feel like your own little slice of paradise. The Harper’s modern finishes will ensure that you’re living in comfort and style with fully updated kitchens and a washer and dryer in every unit. 

In addition, every studio apartment has central air conditioning to make sure you’re staying cool during those hot California summers. The Harper also has plenty of incredible amenities, including a fully equipped gym, a rooftop barbecue area, and a sparkling swimming pool.

It’s also a pet-friendly apartment building with a brand new dog park for your furry friends to stretch their legs. The apartment is in an excellent central location, with plenty of restaurants and markets nearby so you’ll be able to spend your days exploring everything that Koreatown’s renowned foodie scene has to offer!
