I wonder if you have the same feeling as Xiao Ai: when you first move into a new house, you like it so much. However, after living there for a long time, you will find that things in the house are piling up more and more, and you worry about how to store and tidy up the room every day.

Some people think that if their home looks messy, it is actually because of the lack of storage space. They think that they can just put a few more cabinets in the house. This is actually a misunderstanding. I have lived in the house for 5 years and found out that the more cabinets, the better. But you must have the necessary cabinets. It is enough to have these cabinets when decorating.

I built 8 cabinets during the renovation, but after moving in I found that 3 of them were just decorations. I regretted not listening to the advice.

Kitchen cabinets

The kitchen is one of the most important functional areas in the home. Pots, pans, bottles and jars, as well as newly bought fruits and vegetables need to be stored and stored. It is easy to become messy if you are not careful. Therefore, the kitchen cabinets must be well made.

Generally speaking, it is recommended to first build a row of wall cabinets that reach the ceiling in the kitchen, then add a pull-out basket design, and then embed the range hood into the wall cabinets. The gap between the wall cabinets and the countertop can be designed with some shelves or hooks to place some commonly used kitchen utensils and seasonings for easy access.

When making floor cabinets, remember to reserve some sockets so that you can install a built-in oven or dishwasher according to your personal needs, effectively expanding the overall usable space.

Installation Tips:

1. To facilitate later use, remember to reserve sockets in designated locations in advance during decoration.

2. The height of the cabinet should be determined according to the user's height.

3. When choosing cabinet panels, pay attention to their waterproofness and environmental protection.

Bathroom cabinet

The bathroom carries the washing and toileting needs of the whole family. Choosing a suitable bathroom cabinet plays a vital role in improving the efficiency of the bathroom. Considering the humid environment of the bathroom, it is recommended to give priority to wall-mounted bathroom cabinets with wall drainage, which can avoid sanitary dead corners and the stored items are not easily corroded.

A bathroom mirror can be installed on the wall above the bathroom cabinet, and an LED light can be installed behind the mirror. If there are many people in the family, it is recommended to make a double-slot bathroom cabinet so that there is no need to queue for washing during rush hour.

Installation Tips:

1. The environment of the bathroom is humid, so when choosing the board, you should pay special attention to waterproofing. It is recommended to choose solid wood or artificial board;

2. It is best to reserve open space in the bathroom cabinet to place some commonly used toiletries for easy access;

3. Before choosing a bathroom cabinet, decide on the drainage method first. Floor drainage can only be used with floor-standing bathroom cabinets. For wall drainage, both hanging and floor-standing types can be used.

Bedroom wardrobe

Everyone has to buy a lot of clothes in their lifetime, so every household needs to install a wardrobe when decorating. Choosing a high-end wardrobe can even improve the grade of the clothes.

It is recommended to customize an entire wall at the entrance of the bedroom as a wardrobe. Remember to make it to the ceiling, otherwise it will easily accumulate dust. The color tone should be consistent with the main color of the room as much as possible.

You can leave a few centimeters in the middle of the wardrobe to divide the entire wardrobe into wall cabinets and floor cabinets, which is conducive to making full use of the storage space.

If the bedroom is large enough, you can consider setting aside a part of the bedroom space for use as a dressing room. The storage area can be divided into stacking area, sundry area, hanging area, etc. according to functionality to maximize the use of space.

Installation Tips:

1. It is recommended to give priority to hinged doors for wardrobes.

2. The layout of internal storage space should be reasonable.

3. Make sure the height is high enough, otherwise dust will easily accumulate.

Make a shoe cabinet in the entrance

Building a shoe cabinet at the entrance of your home can not only serve as a reminder to go home, but also make it easier for us to organize our shoes.

Like the wardrobe, the shoe cabinet should also be built to the ceiling to prevent dust from accumulating easily. At the same time, there should be a few open spaces in the middle to place small items such as keys and wallets when you get home. If there are elderly people at home, it is best to leave a seat at the bottom so that they can sit down when changing shoes.

For families with poor lighting, it is recommended to add light strips around the shoe cabinet, or add mirrors to effectively improve the light in the home.

Installation Tips:

1. Don’t use light-colored boards for shoe cabinets, as they will look dirty after a long time of use.

2. When choosing the cabinet board, pay attention to environmental protection;

Dining room sideboard

Many people think that sideboards are useless, but in fact, their existence is very helpful in improving the dining experience and mobilizing the dining atmosphere.

If there is enough space at home, it is recommended to make a sideboard. Like other cabinets, it is best to "stand upright", leaving an open space in the middle to organize and store some small appliances, and add a few drawers in the lower part to store things that are not often used. If the house is relatively small, you can use the design of a sideboard + booth, embedding the booth into the cabinet, so that both aesthetics and practicality can be taken into account.

Installation Tips:

1. If you plan to install a light strip, remember to reserve a socket;

2. The length of the countertop should be designed to be around 90cm. It is recommended to thicken the board to prevent deformation due to long-term extrusion;

In addition to the five cabinets mentioned above, others such as TV cabinets, bookcases, etc. are not necessary. You can choose to install them freely according to your needs. Don't blindly install a bunch of cabinets and find out a lot of wasted space after moving in.

Today’s discussion: In addition to the five cabinets mentioned in the article, what other storage cabinets are most frequently utilized in your home?
