Furnish your living room with open and closed storage

When your living room is used for socialising, working and relaxing, you can easily feel overwhelmed by too much stuff. But with some smart planning you can create a calming impression.

1. Go for smart, multi-purpose furniture

Start by hiding things you don’t want to show off in a couple of low cabinets that also double as room dividers. Use the top surface for a small collection of books and a plant or two.

2. Display your favourite pieces

Put stuff you want to display as well as protect inside two glass-door cabinets. The adjustable shelves make it easy to adapt the height to your collection.

3. Use matching units for instant order

When your dining table is used as a space for working, support it with some drawers on castors. Use them to store paperwork such as bills and letters or materials and supplies.
