Book Shelves Are The Bearers Of Multitudes 

A book shelf is the best space saving technique we could come across for their structure. They need not necessarily carry books, instead they can accommodate photo frames, decors, or even your collection of keepsakes or trophies. On an aesthetic level, you can play with designs. A book shelf doesn’t need to fit on the ground space, rather it can be tacked up on the wall. It could occupy your ground space by being as small as a ladder book shelf or it could take your entire wall and reach almost up to the ceiling. With this technique, you can organise the top shelves with the unread books or the ones you’ve completed. Their simple structure and sublime designs will leave your guests in awe. 

Entrance Ways – The Reminders 

When you’re in a hurry to step out you must pick certain things that are necessary such as your umbrella, grocery shopping bag, and more, then consider having an entrance way storage unit. You don’t have to cram your storage space, rather you can keep it extremely organised with a small chest of drawers to contain your shopping bags. A tiny shelf adjacent to it could be pretty much enough to serve as your shoe rack. If you have an eye for aesthetics, you might as well hide your shoe rack from the world by converting it as a seating area. A cute cushion over the top of it, can transform it as a visually pleasing functional space. Create a cute reminder space to save your day from last minute rush. 

Turntables To Track Easily 

When there’s only a little space left yet you have a lot to cram in a particular area, then turntables would be your friend. Designing them as per your need and according to the visual weightage a space should offer is the most interesting part of it. If your shoe rack is full and you have more shoes left with no space in it, then set up a turntable inside your cupboard. In fact, the smallest part of it or the space left beside your cupboard could have a tier of turntables. Just have a door with a mirror to enhance the functionality of your room. On the flip side, if you want to see what your turntables hold, just keep it open. In this case,

placing your make up essentials on your vanity area and placing the turntable tier to hold all your spice jars in one corner of your countertop would be a great addition to your home. 

Embracing Entertainment Centre In Your Living Rooms 

If you have a spacious living room to make room for a huge entertainment centre, just design it smartly to enjoy a dual advantage with it. The superficial part of it could look like a proper book for you can even accessorise it with decor. But behind the shelves, build a proper storage unit. In the plain sight, let it look like a decor/entertainment unit, but on a functional level, let it serve the purpose as a hidden storage unit. In this way, we can make space for storage units as well as while also uncompromising on the aesthetic aspect of your home. 

Have You Heard Of Bay Windows? 

Transform your plain boring windows into a bay window by just attaching a base cabinet to the wall and place a cushion on the top of it. Create the perfect spot to see the sun and rain through your window. Or if you have pets at home, just make it a cozy window-side pet nook. Let them sit above their kernel and sight see. The bay window can be the ideal spot to read books as the cabinet could serve as your book shelf. Your bay windows are the cusp of functionality and aesthetics at your home. 

Bed And The Bedsides 

The perfect place in your home that can serve as your storage unit while being functional is your bedroom. If your bedroom is shared by two and both of you are working, then it is quite easy to set up a work station. On either side of the bed, have bookshelves tacked up on the wall and go for flown-down tables. On the flip side, if you have kids at your home, just go for a bunker bed without a second guess because they’d never disappoint you. Under the bunker bed, just have a drawer to keep their clothes. On either side of the bunker, set up a step up cabinet to keep their toys or shoes. Adjacent to that, have a tiny flown-down table for them to work. Above it, a cute book shelf would be a great addition to the place. By planning properly, you can also go in for walk-in closets.
