Keep your living room tidy by concealing and organizing your living room necessities. Multi-functional furniture is the best way to integrate storage and functionality into style.
1. Dresser
While dressers are usually found in bedrooms, they work just as well for living room storage. Fill the drawers with books, movies, toys, blankets, or electronics. It can even serve as a TV Stand that keeps your entertainment necessities close by.
2. Tiered Coffee Table
Coffee Tables already provide plenty of function, a tiered coffee table can take that a step further and really maximize your space. Stack books, magazines, or blankets on the lower shelf, and use baskets or trays to hold smaller items. Save the top shelf for decorative items like candles and flowers.
3. Console Table
Often console tables have a slim profile which makes them perfect for sliding behind the sofa or against a wall. Bins can be used underneath for added storage. Console tables come in all shapes and sizes so you’ll definitely be able to find one that matches your style.
4. Console Cabinet
A step above the Console Table, Console Cabinets offer more behind-closed-door storage space. Console cabinets are great for an open living room floor plan. Position it behind the sofa to provide a spot for lamps, drinks, and storage.
5. Storage bench
Two functions in one furniture piece, win-win. A storage bench provides seating and the cubbies below are a great place to store kids or pet toys, craft supplies, or games. Place next to a window for a DIY Window seat.
6. Shelving Unit
Bring eye-catching attention to your living space with a funky shelving unit. Store and display your prized possessions in a visually interesting shelving unit.
7. Coffee Table with Drawers
Drawers beneath a coffee table can conceal all types of items. Furniture pieces like this tend to feel heavier and work better in larger living spaces. Consider your storage needs when furniture shopping and make sure the drawer measurements work for the items you are wanting to store.
8. Floating Shelves
Floating shelves are an excellent way to display smaller items and accessories. It’s also a great way to break up a blank wall, and floating shelves can work in the most unexpected places, like next to a fireplace.
