HOME EDITION
MULTIPURPOSE PIECES OF FURNITURE SUCH AS OTTOMANS CAN PROVIDE A STYLISH SOLUTION TO STORAGE AROUND THE HOME MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE
Amber says other multipurpose products, including benches with hooks for hanging coats and baskets as extra storage, are seeing an uptick. Meanwhile, storage can double as decoration, Lana notes. “Make your storage beautiful,” she urges. “This will be a year for sustainability. We’ll see people opt for natural aesthetics and materials like rattan and bamboo.”
“With the option to have a manual or electric ottoman, that opens from the foot of the bed or sideways, you can solve many problems by storing your everyday items out of sight,” says Amber Brant, digital and marketing assistant at Glasswells. “By doing this, you can optimise a space, while having easy access to stored items, keeping your room tidy and clear.”
ith designers dreaming up products that double up as both furniture and storage, the focus is
on objects which serve more than one purpose this January. Ottomans – a seat, sofa or bed with storage hidden within – are ideal for bundling up your bits and bobs around the bedroom and stashing them out of sight.
