■ Does your home have a storage room?
■ Where do you keep all the sundries in your home?
From the perspective of home life, I sincerely recommend that you all keep a storage room at home. So, today, let’s talk about storage room design.
Storage rooms do not matter where they are located. As long as there is free space, they are a good choice:
1. Porch is the first choice.
Because the storage room is close to the porch, it can also store clothes and shoes for all seasons, as well as various items that go in and out of the house. "Girl with a Pearl Earring" is located in [Guangshi Garden]. The small room next to the entrance door is the storage room▽
Especially for families who often travel on business or have children, suitcases and trolleys for going out. They can be placed directly in the storage room. If the entrance space is not very large, you can directly use the combination of two sets of cabinets. Cabinets that open to the outside can display all items and make them visible at a glance.
2. Close to the balcony
The laundry and drying area on the living balcony is also a place where housekeeping supplies are gathered. It is very convenient to plan the storage room next to the living balcony. The project "Chu·Xu" has two storage rooms, one near the entrance and one combined with the living balcony.
Also, in the house "Meet" in the picture below, behind the invisible door next to the balcony is also a storage room:
3, stairwell
Stairwell, if you live and use it like Harry Potter, you may be accused of "child abuse", However, it's really just right for use as a storage room.
In this duplex house located in [Wanghu City], the stairs are cast in place, and the space underneath is used as a storage room.
The space in the stairwell is inclined, so the height of the internal storage shelves must be changed step by step to avoid wasting space. It can also be like this.
The specific situation depends on the actual situation of the stairs!
4, attic
The height of the attic is not uniform. When used as a storage room, it can be designed together with the housekeeping room.
If the attic area is large, the independent storage room is also enviable.
5, kitchen
In general, in addition to taking into account the convenient circulation, the choice of storage room location is to arrange it where it is unused~ Next, let’s take a look at how big the storage room needs to be to be practical:
Storage How big should the room be?
800mm deep is enough!
Teacher Lu Wei once mentioned the concept of "800 library" in her book "The Small Home Gets Bigger", which is:
A simple understanding is to create an open storage area with a depth of 800mm in the entrance. This 800mm depth is just within one step or one elbow of a person standing in, and it can also accommodate large items such as suitcases and strollers, just like a small warehouse.
So, by extension, the concept of 800 storage is not only applicable to the entrance, but also to storage rooms in other locations~ So the question is, how to plan the storage inside the storage room? For storage rooms with relatively large space, you can build cabinets or customize cabinets on site to plan the storage space.
For mini storage rooms, it is recommended to choose metal storage racks + perforated board combination storage. Yes, don’t miss the space on the door~ In addition, pay attention to the opening and closing of the storage room door:
① Folding sliding door, wall-mounted invisible door. It does not affect the internal storage capacity, and the storage room can be filled to the brim.
②Using curtains to cover the storage room is the most economical way. Feimojia has also used it in the "Champs Elysées" project, and the effect is quite good when paired with arched doors.
The storage room is for storage. You can refer to the supermarket for the internal storage arrangement of the 1㎡ space. Combined with some storage boxes, hooks, etc., a neat home will appear! (Some pictures come from the Internet)
