Kitchen

Because the kitchen can be seen from most parts of the house, appliances like the toaster and kettle are concealed for a tidier look. The bespoke table has been designed to line up with a step in the kitchen floor, so that on one side it is table height and on the other it's the level of a kitchen work surface.

Dining room

The clever storage unit with open and box shelving doubles their display space. To achieve a similar look, mount open box shelves at regular spaces vertically down a wall so the top can be used for storage, too.

IKEA has a great range of budget storage options try the Besta shelf.
