Living in a clean, organised home can reduce stress, make mundane tasks easier to manage, and simply create a more pleasant environment to relax in. But with our busy schedules, keeping the clutter at bay can be harder than we think. One solution? Get strategic about how you use furniture for organization. The right organizational furniture pieces can revolutionize your home. Read on for tips:
Think Multipurpose
Furnishings these days often serve more than one function. Look for pieces like a storage ottoman that opens to reveal inner storage for hiding clutter. Or an entertainment centre that incorporates cubbies, cabinets, and closed storage to organize DVDs, gaming consoles, and accessories. Repurpose old furniture too - that old trunk makes for a stylish coffee table with the added benefit of contained storage. Multipurpose is the name of the game.
Designate “Zones”
Categorise rooms into zones based on use and allow the appropriate furniture pieces to logically organize each zone’s items. For example, use a desk, file cabinet, shelves, and drawers to organize an office “work zone”. Set up an entertainment stand or bookcase to create a living room “media zone”. Use armoires to cordon off laundry and cleaning supplies into a “utility zone”. Think about how you use the space and furnish each zone accordingly.
Go Vertical
Floor space comes at a premium in most homes, so utilise vertical storage whenever possible. Bookcases, shelving units, cabinets, and wardrobes with sufficient storage space can house endless amounts of clutter. Install these vertically oriented furnishings around your home wherever you have stuff that needs a “home”. Vertically stored items don’t take up valuable floor space, keeping visible areas tidy. Prioritise vertical storage for rooms prone to mess.
The right organisational furniture ensures that everything has a designated place so your house stays clean. Use multipurpose, zone-focused, vertical storage furnishings and enjoy the perks of an organised, clutter-free home all year long!
