Design of small storage rooms in the apartment

A storage room in an apartment is a good opportunity to equip an additional room for any need. And it is better to arrange it so that everything is always kept in order there and it is pleasant to go there. Therefore, the design of small storage rooms in an apartment is just as important as the design of the rest of the living space.

A small storage room in an apartment can be located in a variety of places:

• in the hall;
• on the kitchen;
• in the bedroom;
• in the nursery;
• on the balcony.

In the hallway to such a room, you can hide outerwear and shoes, and the corridor will always look neat. In the bedroom, you can equip shelves and hangers for storing things inside the pantry. In the children's pantry, it will be possible to place all the toys and other things the child needs, for example, sports equipment. If you equip a mini-pantry on the balcony, you can store tools there.

A 1 meter closet is mostly suitable for storing small items. But if the room has a large footage, you can consider a variety of ideas.

Most often, such a room will be better equipped in the bedroom.... Inside, it is worth placing shelves for shoes, lockers for things, hangers for outerwear, dresses and suits. In this case, everything will be kept in perfect order. The door to the pantry should be combined with the overall design of the bedroom, blinds or roller shutters would be a good option, in some cases you can even consider curtains. Sometimes in dressing rooms, if there is space, you can install an armchair and a table. After all, it is not always possible to decide what to wear. And in the process of cleaning you need rest. Fittings are also indispensable here, so a large mirror with good lighting will be a must.

This option is placed in the kitchen. Inside, they equip wooden shelves, wall cabinets, provide boxes in which it is convenient to store fresh vegetables and fruits. Jars of pickles and preserves are stored on the shelves. For bulk products, you can equip special cabinets where all the boxes and containers will be placed.

Such pantries can find their place in the hallway and on the balcony. Shelves and drawers should also be provided for tools. Then it will always be possible to find any tool when you need it. A corner can also be allocated here for various tools that may be useful in the household: brushes, brooms, buckets, detergents.

Most often, such pantries help solve the problem with a washing machine that does not fit anywhere. Here you can also place everything you need for washing... Shelves on the walls will come in handy to place detergents and cleaning products there.

A laundry basket will help keep the room tidy. Here, if there is additional space, you can place an ironing board and a dryer for clothes.

A quiet place where you can hide from everyone and work quietly is necessary for many. If you have a more or less spacious pantry, you can place a small work table, chair, rack there. If you have a lot of documents, books and other things, hanging shelves will save you in a small space. You can place everything you need on them. Of course, you will also have to think over the lighting.

You can give your pantry a pretty look using a variety of materials. You can equip it with your own hands, based on what is the purpose of the pantry. If, for example, an additional bed is equipped there, then the repair will include the arrangement of the ceiling, floor, walls. An ordinary suspended ceiling with thoughtful lighting will be the right solution, you can put laminate on the floor, and paste wallpaper on the walls or simply paint them with paint.

If you have to equip a mini-laundry, you will have to lay tiles both on the floor and on the walls, since moisture will be present in this room in any case. If this is a dressing room or a place for storing food, you can sheathe the walls with wood, laminate flooring will be a suitable option.

When equipping a storage system for any things, materials, tools, products, they think over where and what things will be placed. For large items, it is advisable to install racks, both with open shelves and drawers, where it is convenient to store small items. Floor structures such as dressers, drawers, chests are also suitable.

The choice of all these items depends on what kind of things will be located in the pantry: clothes, tools, food or toys. When arranging shelves, racks, cabinets, they can be treated with a composition that prevents the formation of mold and mildew.

Air supply is required in any room. In the pantry, you can equip ventilation yourself or invite a specialist for this purpose. There is a simpler option. In one of the walls, you can make a small window that will overlook another room where there are windows, which means there is a possibility of ventilation. Another variant - just ventilate the pantry more often, and this is very easy to do. Any pantry has a door, it just needs to be opened more often. Thus, the air will circulate, and unpleasant odors or moisture will never accumulate in the pantry.

The design of the room depends on what exactly will be located there. The design of the pantry for the child should be kept in the same style as the room. It is better to make the ceiling and walls light, so that an already small room does not look cramped. It is better to make children's racks for a child colored, provide boxes and boxes where the child will store all his things, designers, toys.

The interior of the office, of course, will be designed in a strict style. These are discreet wallpapers, parquet or laminate flooring. Surfaces can also be wooden - it's a matter of taste.

When arranging a room for storing various things, walls can be decorated with panels, tiles, wallpaper, plaster. Everyone decides for himself what is more attractive for him and, possibly, more budgetary.

As for the ceiling, the easiest way is to make it suspended, it will take very little money. This will allow you to immediately think about where and how the lighting devices will be located. But such ceilings are needed if you have to spend enough time in the pantry.

Light in such a room plays a different role. If these are shelves for storing things, then one lamp on the ceiling will be enough. The shelves themselves can be equipped with flashlights, spotlights. This will help you to place things comfortably in the room and, most importantly, to find what you need.

When arranging an office, bedroom, other recreation area, you need not only overhead lighting, but also table lamps, sconces, floor lamps, lamps... From this, you can choose the right lighting that will fit the overall design idea.

To roughly imagine what a pantry space might look like, you can refer to ready-made examples and, on their basis, develop your own algorithm of actions when arranging your premises for various needs.
