IKEA storage solutions to optimize a (very) small space

If IKEA has established itself as an icon of Scandinavian style, it is not only thanks to its collaborations with the big names in design. It is also thanks to its ability to offer creative furniture, as well as pieces that can be diverted to adapt precisely to the need of the moment.

Not great, the laundry basket in the bathroom! We much prefer the NYSJÖN linen cabinet. Not only does it take up a minimum of floor space, but it also allows you to sort white and color to save time when washing.

Vesken

A very small depth, three levels and casters: the Vesken trolley is the ideal size to fit into a micro-bathroom, and to hold all your toiletries.

Service FÖrhÖja

The kitchen island or the bar constitutes a complementary work surface which is welcome in a small kitchen. Too imposing? Adopt the FÖRHÖJA service. Functional and compact, it is offered in a pine version that you can even customize to match your decor.

The Ivar range is one of the most versatile storage solutions offered by IKEA. With its shallow depth and slender silhouette, the storage unit with pine doors is sufficient in itself. It is great for exploiting the wall surface of any room.

The other smart solution for using wall surface and optimizing space is Boaxel. Dressing room, laundry room furniture, desk and shelving combo… these modular storage units can do just about everything.

We no longer present the BERGSHULT shelf. On the other hand, we have fun finding new locations for it. For example, you can use it to exploit the surface located under a window, when it is impossible to fit traditional furniture.

Ekby Alex Shelf With Drawers

The EKBY ALEX shelf with drawers is not really one of the most well-known pieces in the IKEA catalog. However, whether it is setting up a small entrance or setting up an ultra-compact office area, it always proves effective!

Trofast The All Terrain Storage Solution

The smart storage that needs no introduction, on the other hand, is TROFAST. It has become essential in the child’s bedroom, where it allows you to store toys. With accessories offered in a wide variety of looks, it can also find its place in the office or living room.

A step stool, stool and storage unit, PERJOHAN can also be used as a bedside table or end table. An essential!

Levla

Keys and mail are some of the things that frequently clutter the entryway console. To free up space, they can be stored high up using the small LEVLA wall storage unit.

Organize storage: the IKEA tip to optimize space

Furniture constitutes an essential basis for optimizing space. It is still necessary to fully exploit its storage capacity. And that’s one of IKEA’s great specialties!

Smarter storage than the storage box on wheels that slides under the bed is FREDVANG, the bedside and storage combo. It also fits under the sofa.

Practical, IKEA storage boxes… as long as you have shelves on which to place them. If this is not the case, opt for STUK, storage with 7 hanging compartments.

New Len

Storage boxes have another small disadvantage: unless you have labels, you don’t know what they contain. The solution is LEN, one of the new additions to the IKEA catalog. These templates allow you to tell what’s inside at a glance.

Bygglek

Fearsome, the LEGO® bricks lying around on the stairs or on the carpet! What if we put them in a BYGGLEK box instead? Being able to serve as a tray on which to carry out constructions, this storage is your best ally in encouraging your child to stay tidy.

PÄrkla Box Drawer

Equipped with a handle at the front, the PÄRKLA drawer box can be placed on a shelf, in a drawer, under a bed… in short! Wherever you need it. And when that’s not the case? It is very small, since it is easy to fold and store.

The GODMORDON compartmentalized box is designed to optimize the storage of bathroom drawers. With its smoky color, it also looks great simply placed on a shelf.

The SAXBORGA storage box is one of IKEA’s most effective space-saving inventions. Featuring three compartments that can be used as independent trays, it has a mirror as a lid. The latter can be placed or suspended.

In the entrance, in the garage or in the dressing room: so easy to stack the GREJIG shoe shelves! And it’s even easier to fold them up and store them when you no longer need them.

We quickly cluttered up the kitchen worktop. To find some space, install AVSTEG storage: it allows you to fit a maximum of things into a minimum of space.
