10. Overlooking storage solutions

 

The best design in the world doesn’t mean anything if your home gets cluttered. Functionality has to always be in your mind. Think about your family’s needs and plan for proper storage.

Whether you are a minimalist or you like to have a lot of objects around, we all have stuff that we want to be out of sight. Proper storage can help you put things away innovatively and efficiently.

Designers and architects recommend using the 80/20: put 80% of your stuff in storage and show only 20% of what you own.

It’s good to know all about the experts’ recommendations, but remember, the most important thing is that your home makes you happy. Is the advice in this article useful, or when it comes to home design you prefer to do it your way?
