Space-saving furniture is all the rage at the moment. If you’re looking for innovative ways to keep your home tidy, enhance your flexibility, or make the most out of limited space, then this type of furniture is the way forward.
To help you get on board with this interior and lifestyle trend, we’ll guide you through the world of space-saving furniture and show you how to transform your home into a multifunctional space.
What is Space-Saving Furniture?
As the name suggests, space-saving furniture is designed to make the most out of living spaces that are limited in size. It accomplishes this by:
- Occupying minimal floor space to prevent the room from appearing cramped.
- Introducing clever storage solutions to minimise clutter.
- Serving multiple functions to optimise space.
- Making use of neglected areas in the room.
- Offering flexible and adaptable features.
Overall, this furniture is innovative, sleek and dynamic – making it an ideal choice for the demands of contemporary living.
Types of Space-Saving Furniture
By incorporating a network of small space storage solutions, you can completely transform your home and unleash the full potential of your surroundings – but where should you start?
Let us spark your imagination by showcasing some of Melody Maison’s top furniture picks to maximise your space.
Wall-Mounted Cabinets and Shelving
One of the easiest ways to open up your surroundings is by utilising the wall space in your home. It gives your decor an instant lift and provides an extra dimension to the room.
Wall-mounted furniture is great at saving space because it doesn’t sit on the floor, creating the illusion of a larger, less cluttered area.
To add visual interest, you can mount your wall cabinets or shelves at various heights, but make sure they are easy to access for your convenience!To maximise the potential of your home, explore how unused areas, such as corners, can be transformed into functional spaces. For instance, the simple addition of our Mirrored Floating Corner Shelf can provide functionality and style to an otherwise neglected corner of your room.
Floor Space Saving
Tall, slim, or tiered furniture is incredible for using vertical space in your home.
We also suggest looking for open shelving and legs that raise off the floor. These bonus qualities trick the eye into thinking there is less obstruction, giving the illusion of more space, flow and movement in a room.For a clean and organised look, we recommend our tallboys, high-reaching freestanding shelves and tiered side tables. These pieces are perfect for stacking, storing and displaying your belongings.
Multifunctional Mirrors
Mirrors aren’t simply decorative items. They can serve a practical purpose too.
By reflecting light, mirrors can instantly make a room appear more open and airy, which is excellent news if you’re contending with small or dark spaces.
Some mirrors take functionality to the next level by incorporating exceptional organisation features, such as built-in wall hooks or extra shelving.
These elements transform the mirrors into super space-saving solutions as there is less need for additional furniture in your room.
Fashionable Wall Hooks
Wall hooks are another example of a clever, space-saving design. They may be small, but they’re incredibly mighty.
Again, these handy accessories utilise wall space and keep items off the floor to create an open, uncluttered feel.
Whether hanging coats in the hallway or towels in the bathroom, hooks are the perfect solution for keeping unnecessary clutter out of the way.
It’s also worth noting that the hooks are effortless to install and can double up as delightful decorative embellishments. What’s not to love? Dot them around where you see fit and complement them with matching home accessories, including our fabulous drawer handles.
Cleverly Hidden Storage
Multipurpose storage solutions are another game-changer for maximising your space and creating an effortlessly organised home.
Some innovative pieces in our collection include bench seating with hidden storage underneath and side tables that double as storage baskets.
By sneaking in extra storage space, these pieces help to reduce items cluttering your home. In addition, the clever design frees up more open space and creates a brighter, breezier, and more relaxed atmosphere that many homeowners crave.
