In most homes, space and layout are key to harmony. The better organized the house is with shelves and cabinets, the more space there will be to move around and enjoy family activities. Wall space in a home is prime real estate for storage. It offers an alternative to stacks of boxes or items scattered all over the room in a mess. Wood shelving systems are an effective and efficient way to provide stylish storage options. Shelves can be used for any area of ​​the home, such as a laundry room, bathroom, or kitchen. They enhance the decor of a room and enhance its appearance.

What are some of the most common shelving system applications?

bathroom wall cabinets

When considering bathroom wall cabinet installation, consider its intended use. Will the intended wall shelf system be used primarily for storage? Is this space going to fulfill more of a decorative aesthetic function? Will it display decorative or more functional elements? Depending on the use, the size, style and design can differ substantially, but they are used in large or small bathrooms. Some come with built-in mirrors and glass, while others are simply joinery.

wall niches

While wall niches are primarily decorative, they add significantly to a room’s character and ambience. Although they are normally used to decorate bathrooms, a wall niche can be used effectively in other spaces. For example, they make an ideal display for decorative plants in a living room, outdoor walkway, or indoor hallway. Wall niches are simple features that are easy to install.

kitchen cabinets and shelves

A kitchen can be, by far, the most practical space in a house to install multiple and varied types of shelving systems. Storage in a kitchen is very important, especially when considering the necessary large appliances that take up so much space. This often leaves little room for pots and pans, fancy china, serving pieces, gadgets, and rarely used small appliances. Wooden spice racks, wine glass racks and pantry systems are options for saving valuable kitchen space.

Using various shelving systems adds form and function to almost any room in a house. Other things to consider besides function are material and design. Choose something that matches the existing decor. Considering the diversity of wood colors, grains, and prices, there are a variety of possibilities available to update older shelving systems or to refresh the home’s interior décor.
