Experts point out that interior designers and furniture experts are constantly creating new and innovative storage solutions, from a well-designed play of drawers and shelves to cabinets, stools with storage, camouflaged cupboards, folding beds, and more. As people especially in urban areas increasingly live in apartments with limited space, coupled with a consumerism culture where every second person is buying more, storage concerns are what most face. However, it's not just space constraint.
Aesthetics also play a role as many prefer the clean, clutter-free spacious look. While this can feel daunting, experts say "there are numerous ways to utilise and optimise space with a well-optimised interior design". "In modern homes, storage solutions are integrated into the overall design of the home since the beginning of the project, rather than being an afterthought.
This can include the use of built-in space for cabinetry, hidden storage areas, and multi-functional furniture pieces. The goal is to maximize storage without compromising the overall aesthetic of the space. Additionally, modern homes often incorporate open floor plans, which can be utilized to create a sense of spaciousness, while still providing ample storage options," says Sandeep Jain, Chief Operating Officer, Arkade Developers.
