Storing Items Properly: 6 Smart Solutions for Typical Apartments

Want to organize storage of your belongings in your apartment conveniently, compactly and avoid the feeling of a cluttered space? We offer 6 relevant smart solutions that will allow you to look at storage in a new way.

Closet in the niche

If your apartment has a niche, organizing storage systems there is an excellent solution. This will save money (by not building walls for the closet), fix the room's geometry and use the features of your living space wisely, turning a disadvantage into an advantage. If the niche is deep, you can turn it into a full-fledged wardrobe.

Closet-cabinet

By the way, modern manufacturers offer a wide variety of closet door designs, so choosing a suitable option to match the interior style and color palette is easy.

Wardrobe in the Room

If you have a small apartment, maybe a room wardrobe is an option for you.

Undoubtedly, this solution will take up part of the room’s area, but it allows you to systematize storage in one place and get rid of bulky wardrobes.

Movable Systems

For owners of modern apartments with open layouts, functional storage solutions may be movable systems. Besides their main function, they have several additional benefits: help efficiently zone the space (without having to build walls and partitions) and allow easy and quick changes in its configuration.

With the help of movable modules, «two-layer» storage can also be organized. This is especially convenient when organizing wardrobes (in the back of the closet, you can store off-season shoes and clothes and rarely used items), offices, and home libraries.

Attic Closet-Cabinets

Loft rooms are not rare even in typical apartment buildings, and furniture manufacturers take this into account. To make the space not go to waste and ensure that the storage system looks as cohesive and natural as possible, it makes sense to install a closet-cabinet or a storage system designed specifically for your loft room.
