5 Simple storage solutions
1. LIVING AREA
If your living room is in an open living space, whereby the kitchen and dining room are all in the same space, use block furniture and handy storage to divide the space. Fitting units around the sides of a sofa is a genius way to maximize your storage without taking up wall space, and helps to define the separate areas further.
2. HALLWAYS
Hallways are subjected to the highest traffic area in the home, whereby the residents would come through and lighten their loads. So storage is key to deal with the clutter and usually space is extremely limited. Here I suggest storage benches or cupboards, which are made in various different widths and heights. Coats can be catered for by the use of hooks to make use of the wall space.
3. Media storage system
TVs are taking focal points in many homes and take up valuable spaces in our living areas. As we are relying on and buying electrical gadgets (e.g. Xbox, Blu ray DVDs, sky boxes etc.) we need to find storage which is not only practical but aesthetically appealing.
Simple shelving and movable TV units, like this one on wheels, offer flexible solutions. Or, for something tailored to your needs, try fitting a bespoke design.
This can be catered for in all budgets, just mix in imagination and Voila!! A Perfect solution.
4. Every inch counts
Small kitchens can make life hell for a cook, so organization is key for the sanity for you cooks out there. Every inch needs to be looked at as a potential storage space. My hot favourite is to incorporate pull out cupboards in my kitchen designs. Food supplies are always in easy reach and view due to the multiple shelving systems.
5. Think walls
When space is a premium, always think walls as a solution rather than floors. Make use of walls in corners. Bespoke compartments in awkward eaves allow for the utilization of otherwise wasted spaces. Storage above the sink are for all those everyday hygiene necessities is a must in every bathroom.
