Custom Storage Ideas to Maximize Your Home’s Space
We are still still early in the year, making it the perfect time to focus on staying organized and following through with your New Year’s resolutions. Whether you need more space in the kitchen, bathroom, or closets, these smart custom storage ideas make the most of every inch—without sacrificing style.
Kitchen
Toe-Kick Drawer for Extra Kitchen Storage
The area under lower cabinets is often overlooked, but a hidden toe-kick drawer can store cutting boards, baking sheets, or extra pans. A great way to make every inch of your kitchen work harder.
Smart Microwave Placement
A built-in microwave placed at the perfect height—not too high or too low—makes it easier and safer to use. This solution keeps countertops clear and integrates into cabinetry for a clean look.
Double-Sided Kitchen Island Storage
A kitchen island or peninsula with storage on both sides makes use of otherwise wasted space. Perfect for stashing less frequently used items like serving dishes or small appliances.
Coffee Bar with Custom Display Shelving
Otherwise a dead wall, custom cabinetry matches the kitchen island base. Open shelving creates a stylish way to display favorite dishes while keeping coffee-making essentials within reach.
Pantry & Closet Storage Solutions
Organized Pantry Storage
A well-thought-out pantry makes a huge difference in everyday cooking. Pull-out shelves, vertical dividers, and custom compartments help maximize space and accessibility.
Vertical Storage in a Half Closet
When a remodel takes over closet space, keeping part of the closet for vertical storage—like vacuum storage—is a great compromise. Smart shelving solutions keep essentials organized without taking up valuable square footage.
Smart Closet Storage
Carving out space for dedicated closets in a owner’s suite. And Closet organization goes beyond just hanging rods—built-in shelves, drawers, and vertical storage solutions make the most of every inch.
Bathroom
Floating Shelves Above the Toilet
A half-wall or small bathroom space can be maximized with floating shelves for towels, toiletries, or decorative accents.
Custom Bathroom Vanity
Custom-built vanities ensure you don’t lose countertop space while fitting perfectly in the room’s layout.
Double-sided Linen Closet
The linen closet opens into the bathroom and the hallway, so towels and supplies can be accessed from both sides. The door design matches the vanity and medicine cabinet.
