One wall, lots of action

By putting your entire living room wall to use, you can create a flexible space for work, hobbies and play in the process. Surround your desk with shelves and storage, neatly holding all you need to get stuff done. To transform for fun, slide out the table to open up the area, revealing a bench. Just pull up some extra stools and you are set for a fika or game night.

Minimal style, maximum space

White cabinet fronts like VEDDINGE help create a tidier look in a room with a lot going on. Aside from their minimal style, the extra row of overhead cupboards adds massive storage capacity without making the space feel crowded. Perfect for things you use less often, but still want close at hand.

Turning shelves into walls

Got a small, open-plan space but still want room for spontaneous sleepovers, a spot of work and some alone time? Use some airy KALLAX shelves that double as a room divider and an extra storage space with all the clutter hidden in boxes with lids. The shelf is accessible from both sides, but you still get the feeling of two independent "rooms".

How to extend your busy kitchen?

Taking storage up and away from the floor is key if you want to make your small kitchen feel bigger. BEKVÄM trolley provides additional workspace when you need it and tucks away out of sight when you don’t. Just put it in the corner, add a SKÅDIS pegboard combination above and enjoy your new handy place to store spices, recipe books or most frequently used cooking tools.

Hanging gardens at home

If you love plants but don’t have a lot of windowsill real estate... Extend the sunny spot! You can create your own hanging garden by hanging some shelves on SANDSHULT brackets and placing plants in different heights.
Adventure everywhere!

Filling a room, big or small, with stations for different activities can do wonders. SKÅDIS pegboards and picture ledges over the desks not only let that mood climb up the walls, but also help to free up the floor space for playing (or practicing backflips!) on the PLUFSIG folding gym mat. Just remember to mount all shelves and ledges in a height that is easy for children to reach. This will help them take ant put back their stuff without any help.
