Built-In Shelving Ideas for Every Room in Your Home

October 16, 2019 Jolanda Slagmolen

Built-in shelving can be a beautiful, aesthetically pleasing way to organize your home while adding style and personality to each space. The best part is that no matter how oddly configured or tight the space is, you’re not held to the restrictions of standard cabinetry or shelving sizes. 

We love to work closely with our clients to create a minimal, timeless, and beautifully designed custom piece that will enhance their space while maximizing the room. Giving them the organization that they desperately need! 

Here are a few ideas on how you can utilize built-in shelving in every room in your home! 

The Living Room 

This is one of the primary rooms in your home, so it’s the last place you want things to be messy and cluttered. We can work with you to envision what an entertainment unit might look like, or a space that contains shelving for books, storage, and décor. It will hold all the items you need while being a focal point that draws the eye into the room and ties it all together.

The Laundry Room

This room can get chaotic at times, especially if it doubles as a cleaning supplies room. We can look at building custom cabinetry around your appliances in places that make sense. Where you reach for the laundry detergent, broom, and extra paper towels needs to be thought out strategically for ease and accessibility.

The Bedroom 

This is the place where you start and end your day. Therefore, organization and cleanliness are key! Your bedroom needs to be a spot where you can relax and retreat after a long stressful day, and wake up feeling inspired and refreshed. Our team can work with you to build your dream closet, so your clothes are tidy and displayed beautifully (think Carrie Bradshaw’s magical closet). We can also add built-in shelving for books, photos, and décor to add some personal touches in the space without over cluttering.

The Kitchen + Dining Room 

This is where you host company, enjoy family meals, and dive into the art of cooking. Having storage built into your island or pantry will organize the flow of your kitchen and make cooking (and cleaning) hassle-free. We can also build in custom storage cabinets in your dining room, or floating shelves to store and display your fine china, along with those “special pans and dishware” that only come out on specific occasions.

The Entryway 

The bain of every homeowner’s organizational process! It’s the place that everyone sees first, yet it’s the spot that gets unorganized and dirty the fastest. We can help by maximizing your space and putting build-in cabinetry in whatever configuration your entryway allows. We can also install cubbies and open-faced lockers that can store books, backpacks, shoes, and jackets.

The Bathroom 

This is a tough spot, especially if you’re sharing the space with more than one other person. We can work with you to create open-faced medicine cabinets, floating shelves, and drawers that maximize your space under the sink. It’s also key to make sure your linen closet is being used efficiently so that all your extra towels, face cloths, and linens have an organized home behind a closed door.
