Get Organised

These days our homes are required to be more multifunctional, so it’s important to maximise on space. New innovative designs and interior trends offer practical and stylish storage solutions.

MAKING SPACE

When looking to create storage space it’s imperative to do so without impeding the room’s most important functions. For example, while open-concept kitchens are particularly popular, they often have a lack of cabinetry, so including features such as larger islands and countertops with storage space or shelving will compensate for this. Moveable trolleys or islands allow for extra serving or workspace as required. Within living areas, sofas, ottomans or stools with concealed storage come in handy for stowing away throws and cushions, similarly beds with built-in drawers provide a place for anything from spare bedding to suitcases.
