To keep the entrance area always neat and optimize function, homeowners can arrange a ceiling cabinet system right next to the door. This design not only increases storage space but also effectively utilizes space according to height. The base of the cabinet should be designed with open shelves, about 20 cm from the floor to store shoes for daily use. This arrangement makes it more convenient to store and take shoes, while keeping the walkway always clean and tidy.
In the middle of the cabinet, you should integrate a shoe-changing bench with soft seating cushions. The size of the chair is just enough for two people to use at the same time but does not take up too much space, creating comfort when wearing or removing shoes before entering or leaving the house.
To increase storage capacity, the lower part of the seat can be designed with additional drawers or a large storage compartment. This is a suitable place to store jackets, bags, umbrellas or items you often carry when going out. Thanks to that, the common living space will limit the situation of things being scattered on sofas or tables and chairs.
On the side of the cabinet, homeowners can install additional hangers to place hats, scarves, keys or small items of common use. This simple solution helps keep items in a fixed position, easy to find and avoid losing them.
The top part of the cabinet should also not be wasted. This is an ideal area to store less-used items such as off-season clothes, blankets or spare shoes. Using synchronized containers will make sorting easier, while maintaining neatness and aesthetics for the overall space.
In addition to the lobby area, another worth considering solution is to install clothes rack behind the bedroom door. This design creates a temporary place to hang clothes that have been worn but need not to be washed, helping to clearly separate clean clothes and used clothes. Thanks to this, the bedroom will always be tidy, limiting the situation of clothes piled up on the chair or headboard.
