Joanna Simmons added this to Decorating: Smart Ways to Do More With the Upper Third of a Room
Build above the doorSpace above a door is rarely used, but it’s a natural home for shelves. Here, the shelving over the door creates a wraparound effect, as a continuation of the built-in storage stretching across the wall, but a standalone shelf would work just as well.

Exploit underused spaceThis beautiful shelving is probably no more than 500mm or so deep, so it barely eats into the room’s overall space. Nevertheless, it provides a wall of storage, interest and colour, turning what might otherwise be a completely plain, unremarkable surface into a thing of beauty. Continuing the shelving above the door is a clever touch that makes use of every scrap of space. It also gives this wall a more sleek, designed feel, steering it away from looking simply like two bookcases either side of the door.TELL US…Do you have any tips for creating clever storage in a living space?

Cast your material net wideIf you’re opting for a painted finish then there is even more scope to include alternative materials to wood. A strong material such as MDF on the internal carcass will ensure your unit is strong. It will also prevent warping or any expanding and contracting which might occur when the temperature fluctuates. Add wood to the edges and areas with decorative mouldings, as it can be carved into features and gives a natural grain texture. MDF is a particularly good choice for bathrooms or any area exposed to heat or moisture. Waterproof MDF in a durable painted finish should remain strong and undamaged for years. Make sure you ask your joiner for advice about the best materials to use. Give them an idea of the look you want to achieve, and what you will be using the furniture for, so they know how much weight it will need to support. Ask to see samples of each material to check how it looks against other colours and textures in the room, but bear in mind that there can be a variation in natural products.

This shelved archway can be 2 sided facing both the living room and the kitchen. Interesting idea

Like how this is on other sides of the entry way. May be able to do something like that in the second living room.

Too much polish for my taste, but I love the shelves encasing the entry to the room.

This makes use of normally unused space. It creates amble storage and looks sleek, avoiding just 2 bookcases lining the door either side. Want us to design you these?
