At Herringbone we are experts on making sure our kitchens and furniture offer the ultimate storage for our clients designing everything to be bespoke. It is something that really sparks joy! We’re talking dovetail drawers, banquette seating, cutlery inserts, knife blocks, chopping board vertical storage, entertainment units, bars, wardrobes etc. - it's what makes all the difference. 

Here are a few tips and ideas about what to consider when you are thinking about your storage options. 

The right storage: you can have many cupboards and storage in a space however, if it doesn't fit your pots and pans, your chopping boards or the height of the sauces and bottles then it's not functional. Make sure when you design your space that you consider how you live, what gadgets you have and what you really want from your storage space. 

Organised shelving: there is nothing worse than if you have to move everything around before you can get to the one thing you need. Make sure the spacing, size and practicality is considered when you create the storage. Do you need vertical instead of horizontal division shelving? Do you have huge pots that need extra height? Do you have a corner unit that makes it hard to reach inside? etc. it's important to have an overview of how you live/what you have to ensure you can fit it all in, neatly. 

Out of sight out of mind: Closing the cupboard with ease is important. If you have the right storage that is the right size then you don't have to look at the mess or try and fit anything into a space where it doesn't fit in. The ironing board is also a tricky one but if you consider it from the beginning then it will always have a space.
