How to find a place for storage in the apartment: Designers' advice

Even in the smallest apartment, you can find extra storage space - it is enough to organize the space properly. In The Village, experts advise you not to start buying new cabinets, but with the audit of what you already have.

The first step is a list of things you plan to store. Make a list of categories (shoes, clothing, utensils, books, etc.) and specify the number of each position. This will help you determine how much space you really need. Some things may be given, sell or disposed of.

The main rule: storage furniture should work for the maximum. Among the key tips:

  • Choose cabinets under the ceiling - it gives additional shelves;

  • Install pantographs (sliding rods) for convenience;

  • replace the shelves with drawers;

  • Keep things in vacuum packages and signed boxes;

  • Use transparent boxes or photos on boxes - so easier to navigate.

In addition to traditional cabinets, you should pay attention to the potential of the following zones:

  • Under the bed - models with a lifting mechanism allow you to store big things (beds, suitcases, seasonal clothing);

  • podium - if the space allows, you can make a podium with drawers;

  • behind the sofa - leave the distance from the wall and place a deep niche or box there;

  • sofas and ottomans with drawers inside - functionality and comfort in one solution;

  • The table table is visually easy, but contains magazines, plaids or even children's toys.

The kitchen should use vertical surfaces: rails, magnetic holders for knives and hooks. They will free up the work surface and help keep the necessary.
