We all want to live in a big and spacious home. However, that desire seems to drift away from us with each passing day, mainly because our finances do not allow us to live as we would love to. Therefore, we try as much as possible to maximize the little space at our disposal. There are many ways in which we as Alair Homes North Island help you integrate different functions within a home setup so that they can operate in harmony.

For instance, you might choose to use an empty rectangular coffee table which from time to time might act as extra storage for items within your living room. Besides, the coffee table can also second as a seat especially at times when you have visitors. Therefore, we as Alair Homes help you realize this.

Space on the Walls

There lies a lot of un-utilized space on our walls. For extra storage, we as a company help you install hooks to wall surfaces so that they can be used to holster attire and even paintings. Also, shelves can be created on the walls so as to act as storage for books and papers.

Storage Space

If the need arises, we help you add more storage room, especially below your bed and sofa. You can replace your original bed and seat with a box-like bed and seat. Creation of a box bed and chair allows you to store items ranging from clothes to shoes.

Sleeping Area

A retractable bed is an ingenious solution especially in a scenario whereby your house is small but has relatively high walls. In such an instance, we advise you to make use of a sky-bed that is safely secured using strong chains and hinges.

A loft bed not only helps create more space in your home but also contributes to its aesthetic stable. A loft bed is cheaper as compared to the retractable bed idea. By utilizing the upper space, you create more leg room downwards.

After making a free standing bed, you need a medium that will allow you to access your sleeping facility. A hanging staircase is an excellent idea. However, to maximize efficiency, you might consider integrating storage boxes below each stair so as to boost the percentage of storage area in a given room.

Kitchen Space

One fascinating idea we can borrow from tiny homes is that of using a multi-directional table. Usually, this is a simple type of table created for use in an indoor and outdoor setup. However, it is fully attached to the wall and is only accessible through a hollow space on the wall, by either pushing or pulling it.

A kitchen area is another important part of a household that deserves your attention. Organization of your small size kitchen is necessary so as to combine many functions at a go. For example, remodeling of the sink area might yield you an interchangeable dining table and prep space for use during food preparation. At the same time, the creation of extra space is possible in its underbelly.

Conclusion

Therefore, all the above proves that there is a lot we can learn from tiny houses especially in arrangement and design. By exploring all surfaces, above and below, we can come up with living environments that are not so much congested.
