As a means of storage / storage cabinet ordinary use. But despite a lot of storage facilities, certainly unsightly and uncomfortable eye to activity (movement), if the cabinet shall be lined-row in the room. Figure wardrobe that “bulky” and massive will look (and feel) retract the room.
Another alternative is to make the warehouse. However, in homes with limited area in which the need for residents living alone were often less-manufacturing warehouse that telling is not the solution. Appropriate solution to the above conditions is to utilize every inch of the room (the corners and part of “unemployed”) as storage.

To ensure that the house has enough storage (which will not have to menjejer-jejerkan cabinet), ideally the planning done in advance, even if it might make more since then making house plans. Train your eyes and maximize carefulness sudut-sudut/area unused houses to transformed into storage.

But do not be discouraged if you happen to have a house and still need extra storage. There are corners that still could be “worked out”. Here are some of them. Hope can be an inspiration!
Ceiling
If the ceiling is high enough, use to put extra storage. Make a simple rack (just to capitalize wood, metal bracket braces, and screws or nails!) Around the room. This shelf should be placed near the ceiling so as not to interfere with activities or people passing by in space.

Under bed
The bottom of the bed is also a potential area of storage used. Drawers for storing pillows, sheets, and extra covers can also be made here. Or it could also save some clothes that do not satisfy wardrobe.
If you already have a “common bed” do not upset! Just buy the box-lid plastic box with wheels, so easily removed and inserted. To hide from the eyes, spread out over my covers, the sides under the bed.
Kitchen table below
The lower part of the kitchen table or the bottom of the cooker which was just a table top, can be used as extra storage. To store food and cooking utensils okay, or it could be to hide the gas cylinders.
Covering Wall Shelves

Built in cabinets are cabinets that are embedded in the wall. Save a place, and do not need to buy furniture again.
Knick-knacks are pretty and can make a house look more attractive. But buying knick-knacks meant to think about where to display them. For some people, showing the location of these trinkets are often confusing. “My house was a tiny can filled with cabinets that comply with ‘hungry eyes’ me, each time seeing trinkets unique and funny.” The story of one of his tabloid readers HOUSE, the house had covered.

Then, if the owner of a tiny house can not deliver his hobby collecting knick-knacks? Sure can, because there are tricks that can be tried for displaying knick-knacks funny game earlier.
Save place
One trick that can be practiced is to create a cabinet built in cabinets alias (or shelf) embedded in the walls of the room. Such structures clearly save space, because its location is embedded in the wall, so it takes up the area of the room. Thus, the room still felt relieved, not filled with cabinets, knick-knacks but still get the show room to show off its beauty.
If you want to add lighting to accentuate the beauty of a collection of knick-knacks, these cabinets will also prevent the cable semrawutnya room. Because the cables electrical installation can be planted in the wall and did not spread everywhere. Lighting is generally provided for these cabinets are light down model.
Divider
Apart from being a display of knick-knacks, the form was built in closet also has another function, that is used as a room divider or separator. For a small house, preferably built in a cabinet with a semi-transparent structure. That is, through a built in cupboard space is still visible behind it, but functions as a separator between the space remains present. This semi-transparent form will give the impression of a more spacious and open, because the inter-room still looks to have a relationship and not separate at all.
Construction
In terms of construction, built in cabinet is usually made with a forward (or reverse) part of the wall and installing wooden or glass sheets of them. Or it could also be made to “hollow out” the wall.
May be somewhat surprising. Advancing the wall, right, means reducing the area of the room? It is true that if this review of the advanced side of the room walls. But when viewed from the side of the room beyond, then this would advance the walls of the room to add large. So on the one hand reduce and on the other side to add, the end result exactly the same.
Absolutely not recommended to make cabinets built in a way “mengkorting” or reduce the wall thickness. Not advisable also install brick or cinder-block follow the length. The reason, this kind of installation is very influential on the strength of the wall that will eventually affect the power structure of the house as a whole.
Nyempil places

If the house has a concrete column and shape protruding from the wall, it can make a closet built in at the last columns. With notes, should be located close together.
Can anywhere
Built in cupboard really is a flexible storage system. Can be placed anywhere-in kitchen, living room, even bathrooms. Functions may then become more broadly, not just a display or antarruang separator.
With all this excess, to consider the presence of built-in cupboards at home. Especially with a hobby hunting paraphernalia, but did not want the house filled with a display!
Stove Never Seen from Gateway
Furniture April 18th, 2010
True, there are rules in Feng Shui that the stove should not be visible from the entrance. A more detailed explanation again is, stove, both in the kitchen and placed in the dining room, you should not be seen from the living room. So who made the calculation is not the stove which is inline with the entrance, but the resulting view from the living room, especially at the entrance.
This composition is a poor value in Feng Shui, because it may cause some of these effects.
- The decline of sustenance.
- Great envy of outsiders.
- Anger which resulted in the husband and wife relationship is not harmonious.
- Various temptation or corruption.
Bearer Fire
Stove Fire is an element which is defined as a form of spirit of life residents. While the kitchen space is identical to the abdomen of the human body, which is located must be hidden so as not to cause problems, either from within or outside the home.
Similarly, the fireplace is located in the living room, which usually are in the houses of the west who have four seasons. According to Feng Shui is not good if the fire is placed in the living room and directly visible from the entrance. This is because the fireplace is identical to the stove to light the fire.
Tropical houses should not make a fireplace in the living room, because it will cause adverse effects to life, even when the fireplace is meant only as a decoration only. Because this form is to represent “the stove is visible from the entrance”.
So, when designing the interior of the kitchen, pantry (dry kitchen), and the fireplace in the living room, should not be seen from the entrance. Thus a bad influence can be avoided.
Cara Correction
- If you already have a design house with a composition kitchen visible from the living room, there are two ways pembetulannya.
- If the cooker is in the room in the house, insulation should be made, which were located in the living room or hall space in the house, so that the stove was not visible. This insulation can be a partition or a massive wardrobe, – or it could be from the curtains / drapes.
- When in the living room is the fireplace, the fireplace should be removed and eliminated, because the bad effects will apply.
And what about the villa in the mountains? During the building serves only as a resort and not used as permanent residences, a fireplace or stove is visible from the living room can still be tolerated. But it would be nice if you could be arranged by using a more correct concept.
