It’s a common thing and we all browse on the internet for ideas or something that will inspire our creative imagined furniture. It doesn’t matter what the color, style or design, one thing we tend to overlook is using those empty areas to our advantage.
Although wardrobes that are standalone such as chests of drawers, wardrobes, and clothes dressers might be the most affordable option, they typically are affixed to rooms and seldom are they flush with the walls and may occupy precious floor space which could be utilized to maximize storage space.
Below, we provide several examples on how storage units can maximize the amount of space you have available and allow you to enjoy a an organized, tidy and practical home.
Loft Conversion Units & Angled Ceiling Storage
One of the best ways to make the most of storage space is by using the lower end of sloped ceilings as well as coves for fitting drawer units and fitted cupboards, and built-in shelving.
In this instance, we created and built custom drawers that expand in depth as space permits, not just making the most of the space available but also completely altering the overall look and feeling of the space. This results in a gorgeous tidy room that is free of clutter and fully functional storage units.
In the picture below, you will see that all of the space is maximized to give a tidy and uncluttered appearance, but it is also an extremely stylish and unnoticeable storage space. A section that is often neglected in houses is the smaller spaces that are located towards the stairs down below.
This is an installation of the full-length sliding shoe rack, ideal for all the boots and wellies you’d like to keep from sight. The fitted drawers and cabinets were created with a push-to-open mechanism, giving them that modern and sleek look that our client desired.
Storage Around Doors, Windows & Appliances
When you are designing your dream home the most often neglected aspect is the possibility of putting storage units in the vicinity of windows, doors and appliances. The space around these fixtures can be a bit awkward and difficult to imagine the solution, however, building custom furniture allows us to create units that work in any space.
The wall is a fitted wardrobe made of shakers which we designed around the front door of an ensuite bathroom. We made use of the entire ceiling-to-floor space by creating sections of different dimensions and heights, and a shelving along with hanging space and drawers. The customized fitted cabinets are positioned close to the wall, so that they don’t encroach on the floor space.
Shelving Units that are Located Between Walls
It’s not a singular situation, many of us have partition walls that separate rooms but do not know the possibilities for storage that is accessible. Here is an excellent illustration of how you can maximize space by using walls themselves to build an entirely custom-designed shelving unit that can maximize storage space. In this instance, we designed and constructed an shelving unit that was built to create a partition wall between a staircase as well as an external wall.
