Home Style - Collaborative Post

Living in London is an unexplainable experience. The city is bursting with energy. There is a diverse range of cultures and individuals from varying backgrounds that live within the capital.

It is viewed as the central hub where businesses can thrive. A place that is well connected, transport wise to other parts of the world. The city is known for always having something to do daily, from arts to sport, music to film – there is an option for everyone.

Another thing London is notorious for is its accommodation. Many flats and homes are often small, with little storage space available. Finding accommodation with good storage is a challenge many have had to tackle when living in London.

Some attempt to find a way to make space with what they have. Fortunately, it is possible to achieve and here’s how.

Declutter Some Belongings


A simple and effective way to create space in a home is through decluttering. Go room by room or area by area and set aside items that are no longer needed or will ever be required. These items can be sold, donated to charity shops or offered to friends and family.

It can be a time-consuming task to complete, but the result could be additional space in your home. Any extra space is greatly welcomed when living in a small London flat. If you did sell any items, that is a bonus to reap.

Consider Installing Shelves


Adding shelves to your flat is a creative way to add space. If you are renting the flat, check with your landlord to see if it is possible to add additional shelving. Shelves enable you to add decorative features to your home that can double up as extra storage.

You can put decorative boxes on your added shelves and store your batteries or first aid kit inside. Alternatively, you could use the shelves to present the books you own, instead of keeping them under the bed or in a pile by your sofa. With shelves, you can spread them out throughout your apartment. It helps to prevent a room from being too cluttered with items.

Look Into Storage


After clearing your home and rearranging furniture, you may find that there are items that still have no place in your flat. Although they might be needed in the future, they are taking up valuable space in the present moment. Living in a London flat, space is rare to find.

To keep the belongings that currently serve no purpose, consider investing in a storage unit. Look into businesses like Stored Away. They will collect the items you want to place in storage, keep them safe until you need them and return when ready. Investing in a storage unit



Moving into a bigger flat might be the solution for some. However, try one or a combination of these tips first to see if you notice a difference in the space that becomes available to you. Having added space can help to make a room feel bigger. It enables you to move more freely through your home.
