Finding storage for all your possessions can be tricky. 1 in 4 Americans say they outgrow their living space in two years. It’s challenging to find luxury shelving ideas that showcase your belongings without looking cluttered.
If you are looking for the best shelving for interior living rooms that promote a sense of luxury living, read on. Let’s take a look at the leading trends in storage shelving designed for style and functionality.
Consider the Form and Function of Interior Living Spaces
The bare, empty wall aesthetic may create a sense of spaciousness in small apartments or promote creativity in a studio, but they seem out of place in the modern luxury home. Living room shelving is essential to make a house feel like a home.
There are so many ways to express your sense of style and creativity with shelving, but it’s essential to consider how the shelves will function and fit in with the rest of your decor. Don’t install a wall unit or set of shelves just because they will hide audio components or display your collectibles. Choose shelves with unusual materials and accents that bring out the beauty of the space.
With the proper styling, built-in bookshelves can look modern and luxurious. If you are using freestanding bookshelves, make sure they are tall enough you can’t see over the top. Short bookshelves may be functional, but they aren’t on-trend.
Make a Contemporary Statement
If your home decor is more contemporary than traditional, consider some of our favorite credenzas, sideboards, and bookcases. They feature light wood tones, sophisticated metal components, and refined lighting accents to complement modern styles. These shelving options are works of art in and of themselves and provide plenty of storage space.
Express Your Personal Style
Shelving systems allow you to display your personality for everyone to see. If you’re an avid reader, showcase your favorite novels, historical works, or biographies.
Love photography? Fill your shelves with your favorite images in beautiful frames that complement your decor. And if you collect fine art pieces like vases and sculptures, create a gallery in your home.
Go Modular
Your needs change over time. Your storage system should be able to adapt with you over time. With a modular storage system, it can.
Beautiful and functional, modular systems can represent your style. Choose from bold or muted colors, wood or metal materials, and any combination of open shelves or drawers.
Choose Your Solution
If your interior living spaces could use a little sprucing and your belongings could use a little storing, it’s time to choose a storage solution for your home. You can make a modern statement with contemporary styles and materials or take a functional approach with a modular system.
Regardless of your style, you can make your shelving system a reflection of it by displaying souvenirs, photos, or collectibles that are important to you. To learn more or to schedule a consultation, contact us today.
