Amplifying the Storage in Your Home with Bespoke Solutions

28 June 2024

Storage is one of those things that people always appreciate more of, especially in their home. However, when space isn’t at a premium, or your existing storage solutions simply don’t seem to be enough to suit your needs, then you may benefit from bespoke solutions that make the most of your available space.

Read on as we discuss three different bespoke options that you may benefit from.

Cupboard Under the Stairs

If you have an empty area under your stairs, then you’re missing a trick on utilising an incredibly handy space. Under stairs cupboards are a great way to make use of an otherwise unused space, perfect for storing coats, shoes and shopping bags, or anything else that you want hidden away from view!

By using bespoke furniture services, such as those we offer here at JA Horne Starlight, you can have under stairs cupboards fitted to your exact requirements and using a finish that suits your existing interior design and personal taste.

To make this use of space even more effective, you could even install shelving within the cupboard!

Media Unit

The living room is one of those rooms where storage seems to be a minimum, save for a TV stand and a coffee table. Yet traditional storage furniture such as cabinets and consoles can significantly eat up your floor space.

An alternative solution? Installing a media unit. The great thing about media units is that they are fitted along the wall where your television will be positioned anyway, so they won’t be taking up space otherwise intended for other usage - on the flip side, they’ll actually offer you more usage out of it.

A fully integrated media wall takes traditional media units to the next level, framing your TV and incorporating any media boxes, game consoles and speakers whilst hiding wires from sight and offering you integrated storage in the form of drawers, shelves and/or cabinets.

Fitted Wardrobes

Have you got a small wardrobe and too many clothes to fit in it? A fitted wardrobe could be the answer for you.

As their name suggests, fitted wardrobes are fitted into the space you have available, meaning they can make the most of awkward spaces (such as slanted ceilings) that would otherwise not be used. Many also come with the option for sliding doors, meaning they don’t eat up your floor space as hinged doors can.
