Small rooms are ideal when it’s cold outside, as they get and stay warmer much more quickly than a larger, open space. However, there is obviously a big issue when it comes to storage and being able to find furniture that will fit in a small room. Getting several different pieces of furniture to fit in with each other as well as with the dimensions of the room is extremely tricky and can result in a lot of space being wasted.
For some reason bedrooms tend to be small rooms, despite there being a need to store clothing, and other personal belongings. A shared bedroom, either by a couple or siblings, obviously needs to be able to hold twice the amount of stuff, and yet often does not have twice the amount of space in modern houses or flats. As well as providing unrivalled solutions for storage bookshelves, the Shelfstore system can be adapted to create wardrobes and chests of drawers without wasting any space.
The shelves are available in different combinations of height, width and depth, meaning you can create a bespoke solution to fit your room and cope with unusual spaces, such as loft conversions, fixed fittings or where there has been a fireplace, for example. You can add doors to your units, plus a hanging rail inside, to create a wardrobe, and also a chest of drawers or different combinations of drawer sets. Use the online site to easily and quickly plan and design your new modular units.
In bathrooms, usability and aesthetics often goes hand in hand. This is necessary, as in often small spaces every element must play its part. There is little room for extraneous decor, and so the functional items in a bathroom need also to be stylish.
Luckily, for those who wish to inject some style into their bathroom, there are plenty of ways to do so. One of the secrets to effective bathroom design is to limit the use of space. Use techniques and features that have little or no “footprint” and you will ensure that your bathroom doesn’t become cluttered.
Colour is obviously easy to implement even in the very smallest of spaces. Veering away from the traditional white bathroom, and experimenting with other colour combinations, or splashes of colour, will have no impact on space, but a lot of impact on decor.
Many features in a bathroom can nowadays be incorporated with a designer edge. Radiators have become essential elements of modern bathrooms, and these too can be used in stylistic and functional terms.
A designer radiator can really add an extra dimension to a bathroom space. High quality features always punch above their weight in a bathroom, and radiators are no different.
At SMR Bathrooms we’ve got lots of designer radiator options, all made to designer standards – so they are both functional and highly stylish.
For example, we stock models from designers like Rapture, Zenith and Neva, great designer names that are committed to the highest standards of designer bathroom technology.
