Home idea with IKEA: a hallway for a family of four
A family of four seeks to renew their hallway so it would cater to their storage needs and lifestyle. The goal is to maximize space with smart solutions. They envision a clutter-free zone with ample storage for coats, bags, shoes, and baseball caps. They are eager for multifunctional furniture, like storage benches and wall-mounted organizers, to create an inviting entrance. The new design should combine style and practicality to enhance their daily routine.
A young family with a plan
Helvija, Aleksandrs and their two children are eager to renovate their hallway. They aim to create an inviting space that reflects their style and values. With a focus on organization and aesthetics, they would like to incorporate practical storage solutions and personal touches that warmly welcome them and their guests. A household with small children needs to be very organised in order to remain safe and welcoming throught the everyday chaos.
Before: a controlled chaos
The entrance area seems like a cluttered chaos in need of a makeover. Coats and shoes are strewn about and most things are stored in open shelves, creating a visual disorder. The absence of storage solutions exacerbates the disarray. It's time for a change - a proper storage system, hooks, and shelving to bring order and efficiency to the space. With these solutions, the family hopes, the entrance area will transform into an organized and welcoming haven.
After: an organized and welcoming space in calming shades of green
The entrance area, bathed in calm olive shades, exudes a renewed and organized charm. The soothing hues create a tranquil atmosphere as you step inside. With clever storage solutions, the clutter is kept at bay. An elegant bench offers a comfortable seat for slipping on shoes, while a narrow wall-mounted ledge neatly stores essentials. The revamped space seamlessly combines serenity and functionality for a welcoming and serene entryway.
A place for everything
This entrance area for a family of four is a functional and stylish space. Storage on one side keeps everyone's belongings neatly organized, while a mirror and console table on the other provide the perfect spot for last-minute checks and essential items like keys. The Designer has made clever use of the height of the walls and planned some shelves right beneath the ceiling where they offer a lot of space while taking up no floor space.
Organising the space
In the entrance area, smart storage solutions create an orderly space. A dedicated shoe cabinet with ample slots keeps footwear neatly organized, preventing clutter. Adjacent to it, a wardrobe and clothing hooks ensure jackets and outerwear are easily accessible, maintaining a tidy and efficient entrance for the family.
A welcoming home with smart solutions
"Smart solutions fit a modern lifestyle. Everybody can benefit from smart lightbulbs that can be controlled via an app and a household with small children can make good use of an air purifier that I have also installed here."
Organizing a tiny storage space
In this compact WC, a tiny laundry and storage room cleverly utilizes space. A washing machine tucked under the countertop efficiently handles laundry needs, while shelves on the walls provide storage for cleaning supplies, towels, and essentials. This multifunctional space maximizes utility in a limited area.
