Space-saving ideas: 9 great ideas to furnish your home in an intelligent way

Space at home, as we know, is always at a premium. All of us have tried strategies to gain more space in the home, even by throwing away non-essential items that took up a lot of space. The lack of space often affects order in the home and, therefore, it is of fundamental importance to find ways to solve this problem.

The strategies used can be preventive, and therefore concern the choice of objects and furniture used when furnishing an apartment, especially when trying to remedy a lack of space in an already furnished dwelling.

We have listed for you, below, some furnishing ideas that could be useful:

A bedside table shelf, with a small fold-out leaf, is an excellent solution for those with limited space in the bedroom. It's a very convenient way of not having to give up this indispensable piece of furniture, avoiding the encumbrance that a normal bedside table would cause.

These "pockets" mounted inside closets of any kind could save you a lot of space. And consider that they are elements that can easily be added to any type of closet already present in the house.

An old magazine rack can become an excellent space-saving toilet paper holder, thanks to its shape and capacity. It's a creative recycling project that anyone can do without great expense or major effort.

And how about taking advantage of the empty wall behind the toilet, by putting up a wooden ladder or shelves where you can store everything you need?

Shelves of all kinds and shapes are favorites for achieving space-saving solutions. It seems obvious to have to repeat it, but shelves are extremely useful and effective space-savers.

The deployment of pull-out, vertical drawers is a strategy that is gaining popularity these days. In a narrow space between the wall and the washing machine, for example, using one for detergents will save a lot of space and hassle.

In places where there is no space to put a piece of furniture, you can opt for a flat cabinet, like a shoe rack, to be used both for shoes and for other things.

A mirror that opens and hides many shelves, on which to place beauty products, is another design gem to consider for the bathroom or any other area of the house.

And finally, a vertical retractable drawer, if inserted into a high vertical space, can easily become a very useful storage area for brooms and detergents.

Is there a solution amongst these that you will try out immediately?
