A tiny house has two essential advantages: it is environmentally friendly and economical.

Small spaces are easier to make "under themselves", and if you have a house on wheels, you can move it to any place where you want to live.
But in a tiny house there are a number of calls, and one of these: find a place for all your things, and most importantly is to create an additional space! In the end, you do not want the Eternal Bardak to be settled at home.

Instead, you wish more open space to move normally and breathe full of breasts.

There are several solutions. And they all rest in the design of a concrete tiny house. Large open windows, glazed doors departing walls allow you to integrate the inner interior of the house with the environment.

Vertical design creates spacious interiors that are still suitable for small batches. And, of course, the whole art is created, the so-called smart spaces.
And this is what I want to tell today: Elegant and unexpected storage solutions that have a dual purpose and support open spaces and airiness, even in the smallest houses.

Let's get acquainted with 40 ingenious ideas that are ideal for your tiny house, or another small area, such as a small studio apartment, or compact auto-volume.

1. Intelligent solutions for natural lighting.

If you take special furniture, then look at this photo, this design of storage cubes and boxes is built around the window.

It is brilliant, since most builders would completely closed this window or searched the deaf walls to assemble cubes. But there is no reason to it, the window still performs two functions: skips light and forms a useful shelf as an additional storage place.

2. This A-shaped frame combines structural reinforcement with the storage.

Look at this tiny A-shaped house. This is a snapshot of the kitchen. Here you see beams that support the structure, which also play the role of shelves.

3. Open upper shelves create a feeling of greater space.

This kitchen includes an excellent storage concept in a tiny house - real cabinets, but without walls. These are just open Cubes. The idea works on several levels. First of all, you see through the shelves. They do not invade your feeling of open space as ordinary lockers. And, secondly, you immediately take what you need, without worrying about the doors.

4. Use both sides of the shelf.

When you look at the shelf, you think, but what to put on it. Have you ever thought that you can put under the shelf? It is easy to think about the board, as about the closed surface, but, in fact, each board has two surfaces - upper and lower. Here is a great way to maximize the storage space in the kitchen.

5. Place for storage under the bench is an additional space and convenience.

This tiny room inside the house called Mountain Cedar (Cedar Mountain Tiny House) built by New Frontier Tiny Homes (most famous as Alpha Tiny House). Please note that at first glance it is a common bench, but if you draw the cover up, you will find an additionally storage space under it.

6. The optimal solution is modular furniture.

This is a smart storage solution from PIN-UPS HOUSES. Look at these small modules. You can move them around the room as needed and make a bed, or a sofa, or a bench. Alternatively, you can remove the pillows and fold them along the wall. Each such module is hollow inside, so you can easily fill it with your own things. As your needs are changed, your storages are adaptable to them. Very cool!

7. Move this wardrobe in the house or beyond its limits.

Another "smart" idea. Look at this table in the tiny Vina's house. Tina House. You see, in this house there are plenty of storage spaces, but I want to draw your attention to this locker to the right of the chair. It has wheels below. This is a mobile locker. If you don't need him, you can roll back it where you want. This is what I call a brilliant "tiny" storage.

8. Cabinets in the bathroom next to the shower create more storage space.

In a tiny house, it's hard to find a place for a full-fledged bathroom, equipped with a working shower, and find a place for the bath even more difficult. But surprisingly, there is a full-fledged bath in the house in the photo and even storage shelves. So lovers of tiny houses create additional spaces.

9. Storage boxes under the stairs are a classic of a tiny house.

This is the most famous idea for storing in tiny houses. Indeed, if you start reading blogs dedicated to tiny houses, you will see them in almost every home. But this does not mean that we should not talk about them. This is a brilliant idea that saves a lot of space, and architects should be taken note.

10. Toilet built into the bench.

This excellent idea, firstly, because the design of the bench makes the toilet more attractive (it fits better into the bathroom decor). And, secondly, it provides you with some space on both sides where you can store your things.

11. Remember the shelves under the ceiling and folding beds.

One of the excellent ideas for storing in tiny houses, which works well in any small space, are racks under the ceiling.

When you just throw a look at this photo, you do not even notice the bookshelf, it remains aside. But when you put on a bench, you can still get to books. Also pay attention to the folding bed. In the daytime it can be raised to the wall. Although the beds like this exist for many centuries, people forget about them.

12. Replace the wall with cabinets.

If you build a tiny house, then there is no reason to leave empty places on the wall.

You see, in this house almost the whole wall consists of cabinets of different sizes. This allows you to create enough storage space, and leave the floor clean and open. If you already have a house, add even more cabinets to increase storage spaces.

13. Make advanced boxes under the couch.

How do I like these boxes under the couches! They offer additional storage facilities, and do not need to install a large number of racks.

14. You can hang items in the kitchen.

Look at these pots and saucepans hanging from the ceiling, not to mention all the circles that hang under the shelf in the background. These are subjects that do not need to find a place in the closet or on the shelves. Also pay attention to the "smart" wine storage left. Very cool!

15. Use baskets and drawers.

Sometimes at your disposal there are shelves without boxes. In some cases, you can apply them as it is, but in other situations it makes sense to acquire several boxes or baskets. What for? You can fill their things without creating a mess. And externally everything will look carefully.

16. Here is another way to make storage under the couch.

I already told about several good storage facilities under the sofa / couch. And here is another way to use. I like this idea for several reasons. First of all, Cubes create more separate storage compartments, and you can better organize your things. Secondly, I like that the sofa rises above the floor. There is no reason not to take advantage of this idea, and it provides you with more storage space.

This idea is something similar to the one that I set out in 16 points. Under the bed there is an additional space. It looks like sleeping places commonly located in student hostels or small hostels. Under the bed is a lot of space, which is entirely at your disposal.

18. These boxes hide a lot of storage space.

This is a system with drawers from under the bed. They are long, all the length of the bed, easily and quickly go away. It gives you access to all spaces under the bed.

19. Storeroom in the stairs.

I already talked about places for storing in the stairs, but often it leads to missed opportunities. Instead of creating only shelves under the stairs, why not leave much more space that can function as small cabinets.

20. Here is another excellent example of modular cubes.

I want to show you another example of modular cubes. Get acquainted with some configurations that you can do using Cubes - each of which has a storage inside.

21. Install a special railing and hang dishes and kitchenware.

When you install kitchen cabinets, it is easy to forget that there are other storage options for kitchenware and accessories. One simple idea for universal and unobtrusive storage is as follows: just install the kitchen rail on one of your walls. You can hang all that you want. He himself almost does not take place. Therefore, when it is not used, you are unlikely to notice it.

22. Use modules to enlarge the guest bed.

Yes, again modules! But this is such a cool example! These modules can be moved to collect the perfect bed for guests.

23. Hide more things under the floorboards.

Many storage facilities in tiny houses need to be thought out in the process of planning, and they can be unacceptable for ready-made homes or apartments. But if you are only planning to build, consider an extra room for storage under the floorboards.

24. Add the shelf under the sink.

There are no objects on the shelves on this photo, but to install them under the sink is very ingenious. Of course, you can install both drawers, but these long open shelves seem to create more additional space.

25. Just raise this bed for additional space.

You do not have a high bed? No need to go to the store and buy it. You can remake the one that you already have. Here is an example of a bed that raised on concrete blocks. These blocks are fairly stable to hold the bed, and besides inside the hollow, and there can be some things.

26. Use this original extensive wardrobe in the bathroom.

Would you like to have an additional wardrobe in the bathroom? In the photo, this "smart" storage space is located there, where we are usually not occupied by anything.

27. Hide in the wall toilet plunger.

In my toilet, it is usually all dashed into one pile: a plunger, a brush for cleaning the toilet and cleaning agent. I always thought it would be great, find a way to organize these items. But in my small toilet it seemed to me, it was impossible to do this until I saw this photo. See all these important items are simply hidden in the cabinet, mounted in the wall. Unfortunately, they are not sold in Russia.

28. Pay attention to this storage on the one-hour floor in Shenandoah Tiny House.

I showed you some examples of storage of things under the floorboards, but this is one of the best additional places I have seen. Look at the video that I posted below.

Starting from 1.57 you will see an amazing underground storage located on the one-hour floor (sleeping attic). These storage compartments are huge, and can completely replace the cabinets. It gives a lot of free space, and removes claustrophobic, which can happen if you furnish all the beds in large boxes.

Many people think that a small apartment cannot become a place in which it is comfortable to live. The size of space is a relative concept. It must be taken into account how many square meters fall on one person, as the furniture in the room is located. It is for these criteria that it is necessary to determine the space in the room.

A small apartment has a significant advantage, it is more economical. It is much easier and faster to clean, for utilities have to pay less.

To have enough space to all, it is necessary to properly zonate the room.

Separation - what is it?

Standard apartment has no more than 40 square meters. m. Useful Square. Visually, such a limited space causes a feeling of cramped. There are available methods that will help expand the space and add the room more air. The main trick is a division into special zones.

Interior partitions are preferably eliminated. They grind the desired square meters. It is best to use sliding doors. If they are in open state, then almost invisible. If sliding doors are closed - this is an excellent partition.

Sliding doors are used in fully open studios and standard apartments per room. Mobile partitions are a modern solution for the zoning of the room. Stylish curtains can perform in their roles, such as satin or bamboo. Use such a decision at home.

In order to increase the space, the furniture can be transformed.

The absence of a multitude of furnishing items makes a room more free. Today you can order furniture items to order under your individual sizes. This will not be difficult.

To highlight some zone in the room, you can create a podium on this place. So you separate the bed or, for example, the workplace for the child. The podium is considered a modern decision in the interior of a one-room apartment. For greater savings, you can build different boxes in the podium. They can store many things that you often do not need.

Another way to divide space is considered to be a ceiling for several levels. In small rooms, this technique is used quite often. Select zones can be color walls. This is one of the secrets of designers.

For the effect of lengthening the walls, you can paint the opposite sides into contrasting colors. To highlight one wall, it hangs the original backlight. Experiments will help you show your work and share your room for individual zones.

How to correctly organize?

It is necessary to know how to zoning the interior in standard apartments. The preservation of family happiness and well-being contributes to the presence of each family member of a particular corner. The ideal option when everyone has a separate room.

Unfortunately, for many Russians, this is a non-dissolute luxury, which remains only to dream.

Partly satisfy the need for personal space can zoning. The development of the interior of the standard apartment offers zoning within the same room. Open planning implies a combination of two rooms when interior partitions are dismantled.

The most clearly distinguish areas in spacious rooms when they are quite removed from each other and separated by decor, architectural details or finishing.

In a small-sized apartment, a similar method can lead to crushing, which gives the opposite effect. Families with young children will prefer individual rooms. For bachelors and childless families, design design with division on the zone will be the most optimal option. It will help save and maximize every centimeter of the apartment space.

By fulfilling the order for the development of interior design, experts use various ways to divide the zones:

• Zoning with furniture involves the choice of various forms (from the bizarre outlines of the table top and bar counter to the corner sofa).
• Another method involves the allocation of individual sections by lighting. The combination of wall-mounted plafoons, desktop and floor lamps, point lamps, bras, flooring and systems on conductive tires allows you to create a sense of privacy in separate corners.

• Economic methods include the use of transformer partitions. The design of the interior design involves the use of all kinds of functional shots. Completed from wood, silk with painting in oriental style, they give the interior individuality and special charm.
• Another option of partitions can be curtains and sliding partition structures. The partition on the roller support or suspension can leave the cannut into the wall or move along the outdoor side. The disadvantages of this method refers to a violation of the integrity of the floor covering and the transfer of sockets, switches, furniture from the movement zone.

If you want to divide your apartment on separate zones, plan their location before the start of repair.

The distribution of the zone must be made consciously. So you can increase space, optimization, ergonomics, harmonization of the house will occur.

About how to make zoning in the apartment, see the next video.

Room

No need to be afraid to make bold solutions. To transform the room, you can carry extra walls. You can safely combine the kitchen and living room or, for example, bathroom and toilet.

In the modern interior, you can combine the living room with a bathroom. Such a stylistic solution will suit people who live themselves. If you have a big family with children, it will be a bad idea.

Furniture and interior items

Designers recommend chosen furniture in the color of the walls. It is advisable to choose bright tones. It helps to visually expand the space. The furniture must be put in a minimal amount so that you are where to hide all things in the room, while the furniture did not climb the room.

Furniture helps to divide the room into several zones. So one room can become multifunctional, you will not need a lot of square meters for a comfortable life. The main problem in most apartments is the lack of space for storing all the necessary things. The main rule is not throwing the trash on the closet: so you make the room inaccurate, you might think that the hostess in this house does not like order.

Modern designers advise buy cabinets to ceiling. You can choose a wardrobe with a mirror door. This will help to visually expand the space, but such a mirror door will have to be often washed with special means. In the cabinet of the maximum height you can accommodate a large number of things. Here will fit your sweaters and jeans, there will be a place for a vacuum cleaner. It is quite convenient.

Sofa also choose with a special drawer: bed linen can be placed in it.

It is necessary to take into account the interests of all residents of the apartment. Personal internal space should be found to each family member, for this you need to clean the room. Previously, it is necessary to plan zones and only then embody your ideas into life. Several useful tips:

• Use the built-in furniture. Most often in modern interiors, a built-in wardrobe is used, which is desirable to order according to individual sizes.
• Get rid of doors. This technique will help significantly expand the useful space.

One of the most important and complex moments when creating interiors in apartments, especially small, is the right organization of space as a whole and storage systems in particular.

But if we adhere to several working ideas, you can achieve stunning results even on a small area. At the same time, the apartment will not only be atmosphere atmosphere of home comfort, but also a feeling of space.

1. Select the cabinet

An excellent option will be the built-in wardrobe in the entire height of the wall: from the floor and to the ceiling itself. This will allow you to use absolutely all unoccupied space, which is usually lost and idle wasted.

Moreover, it is very convenient to storage at the top of rarely used and seasonal things, and casual clothes and accessories to store below.

2. Use the windowsill

Although we need not himself, but a free place under it. Here a small rack or even a locker will fit perfectly, especially if you extend the windowsill.

Many will say that for this it is necessary to transfer the radiator, and partly will be right. But in some homes there are other types of heating, and there are also alternative options for the realization of this idea, the main thing is to show fantasy.

3. Furniture with secret compartments

Baby beds, big corner sofas, coffee tables - all this furniture can have hidden compartments, in which many things will fit, which will undoubtedly become a useful bonus in a sharp shortage of square meters.

4. Equip window

As a rule, the space around the window is not occupied and is naked walls. Use these places with benefits: both with one and on the other side of the window opening, you can build racks that will be very useful. Yes, and nothing bothers to take a seat above the window, hanging the lockers and creating a similarity of the portal.

5. Podium "Two in One"

Recently, designers often began to use podiums in order to zoning space. And it is relevant not only for adults, but also for children's bedrooms.

Therefore, if your sleeping place is on a similar elevation, do not miss the ability to equip it with drawers, in which it will be possible to place quite a lot of things.

6. We look up

The problem of non-use of the seat under the ceiling is one of the most common apartments or home. Moreover, the shelves or racks can be carefully and elegantly positioned around the perimeter of almost any room, and the interior will only benefit from it - not only with practical, but also from the aesthetic side.

7. Stellagi

This is an excellent way to organize a storage system in a nursery. An open rack will make it easy and quick to access things or toys, as well as quickly find the necessary item. And the drawers or baskets will give a child the opportunity to sort their own and without unnecessary trouble to bring their "property" in order.

8. place under the bathroom

If you are not an ardent tile fan and are ready to separate the entire space of the bathroom, then you may like the idea with the installation of the folding door under the bathroom - a wonderful option for those who are tired of finding out a place to store powders, detergents and other cleaning accessories.

9. Wicker baskets

This is not only a functional, but also a stylish accessory in which it is convenient to store all sorts of little things. And still wicker baskets perfectly fit into any room, making the interior more original and original.

A small advice for those who want the underwear to be binded with freshness and pleasant flavors - throw a few sachets into a basket with a lavender or other fragrant herbs.

Many of us go to relax once or two per year, while the road suitcases and bags are idle and occupy a precious space. Therefore, if you still do not use them as a provider for seasonal clothes and shoes, it's time to change the situation and start storage there such things.

The main rule for the whole apartment is not to forget about such rarely used places like angles, space under the ceiling and above the door, as well as places under the bed and under kitchen cabinets. How to keep things in a small apartment? Use multifunctional folding furniture and things like a banquette, ottomanka, beds with a climbing mechanism, furniture and drawers on wheels. Wherever possible, keep things vertically, so they take less space.

Ideas for small apartments: kitchen

Here you will use soft suspended sections that can be found in stores in stores and even sew yourself. For example, this is such - for a small desktop dishwasher.

Store spices on the refrigerator - it is very convenient. First, you do not need to look into the boxes or reach to the lockers, it is immediately clear that you have, and what already ends. Well, the main problem is solved - the place on the shelves is now free!

See how much you can fit on only the wall of the refrigerator!

If there is a small space between the refrigerator and the wall (enough and 15 cm), you can build a retractable rack, flexing to narrow shelves, furniture wheels and traded a handle with one of the sides.

You can equip the locker under the kitchen sink. Hang two rods on the brackets for light curtains that are sold in building supermarkets to place spare garbage bags, and if necessary, and spare paper towels.

Stands for papers made of metal mesh - convenient replacement for large baskets for vegetables.

Another option is to store vegetables in suspended linen bags that can be placed in any suitable place, just hanging on the hook.

If there is very little space in the kitchen, do not forget that there are options for folding tables. And the most compact is those that are attached to the wall. They do not occupy places on the floor either in unfolded or folded.

When there are few places, you need to use any suitable surfaces. Is there a free wall of the locker? Excellent! Screw to it easy railing, buy several S-shaped hooks and store kitchen utensils.

And, of course, in a small kitchen can not do without a magnetic strip. And you can place on it not only knives, but also any other kitchenware made of metal. The meaning is very simple - more free space will appear on the table top.

Always try to buy more compact items, as well as those that can be folded. For example, such a folding grater is just a find for a miniature kitchen.

And one more excellent example. Too narrow wardrobe for dishes, where do not fit? Screens up a few hooks to the shelf, and you will have another dishes, for mugs.

Bathroom ideas in a small apartment

Remember the multifunctional furniture? It is needed in almost any bathroom. An inverted bar stool, for example, turns into a shelf for cosmetics and a heated towel rail.

Each room has free space above the door. It must be used for shelves (open or closed). But do not forget that open shelves should look carefully, and if they fill them with many things, there will be a feeling of litter. To hide such a mess - put several closed boxes on the shelves, and store everything in them. Little Tip: When you buy towels in the bathroom, you do not need to choose all the colors that you liked. Stay on a specific range and one-two colors and always stick to them. So the room will look neat.

And again we use hooks and rails. Photo on the left: With the same hook on the wall you can build a whole suspension rack. We use several buckets from Ikea, bonded with a clothesline. Great place for makeup brushes, comb, tongs or curlers. Photo on the right: No places for towels? Crepa them to the door to the bathroom. Moreover, you can use not only the top of the door canvase, but also the bottom!

Ideas for a small bedroom

How to be if the room is so small, what is the place just for the bed? We take an idea from the kitchen and placing the suspension table near the bed. We get: a shelf for things that are needed at hand, desktop for a computer and a coffee table for breakfast in bed!

Instead of a bedside table, for which there was no place, you can use suspended sections, securing them for the base of the mattress using a lip-tape.
