How to decorate without a porch?

Usually, the porch of a small apartment is a square space, and how to make a shoe cabinet is the biggest headache for everyone. So, how to design a beautiful and practical shoe cabinet for a small apartment without a porch? Let's take a look with Xiaofeng:

First, the entrance is the corridor.

Reference scheme 0 1: the side wall of the corridor is made into an embedded shoe cabinet.

This apartment uses the wall behind the door as an embedded shoe cabinet. The bottom and middle of the shoe cabinet are left blank, and there is an area for changing the shoe stool, which can meet different use and storage needs, which is very convenient and looks neat when entering the door.

Note: Consult clearly in advance whether this wall is a load-bearing wall, and don't break the wall easily to start construction.

Reference Scheme 02: Finished Shoe Cabinet+Full-length Mirror

If the entrance space is relatively large, you can use the space between the door frame and the vertical wall to place a finished shoe cabinet, which does not occupy space. It is enough to put only the shoes that you change every day, so it is more convenient to find them after work.

Prevent the shoe cabinet from being in the lower area and make good use of the upper area. Install a full-length mirror on the wall above the shoe cabinet, and set a hook next to the mirror to temporarily hang clothes, bags, keys, etc.

Second, the door is a wall.

Reference Scheme 03: Make a shoe cabinet against the wall or side wall of the door.

If the porch is a wall, you can choose to remove some non-load-bearing walls and make a stand-up cabinet as a shoe cabinet, leaving blank at the bottom and middle of the cabinet to facilitate the placement of shoes and daily replacement of odds and ends.

Reference Scheme 04: Top Shoe Cabinet+Partition

Or consider using half the space to make a shoe cabinet at the top, leaving space at the bottom for daily shoes change, and then the other half as decoration, as a partition, and posting pictures, which is also very beautiful.

Third, the porch is the living room.

Reference Scheme 05: Integration of Screen Shoes and Cabinet

From the perspective of geomantic omen, the living room is the direction of wealth in the family, and directly entering the living room is easy to shake the wealth of the family and the fortune of the residents. Many people also pay more attention to this when buying a house for decoration. If this is the case in the apartment, try to make a screen shoe cabinet between the door and the living room.

It is to make a shoe cabinet at the bottom and a screen at the top, which not only brings good feng shui to the home, but also can change shoes in the door.

If you think this shoe cabinet is too small, put the shoes in the season. You can find another cupboard to store out-of-season shoes, which will not affect the feng shui and is very practical.

After the porch shoe cabinet is designed and installed, you can take care of your shoes. Why do you keep so many shoes at home? Xiaofeng simply shared two tips:

Prompt 0 1: classified by season.

There are many kinds of shoes and clothes, which can be roughly divided into three categories:

Sandals, sandals and slippers, net shoes, high heels, etc. Wear it in summer;

Sports shoes, boots, shoes, leather shoes, etc. Wear in spring and autumn;

According to the division of seasons, seasonal clothes are placed in the middle, which is easier to take when wearing at ordinary times. Out-of-season shoes can be put in the top cabinet, which should be cleaned and dustproof. When they are taken out to wear, they don't need much cleaning and drying.

Tip 02: Shoes belonging to the collection category.

If there are some limited edition or significant shoes at home, Xiaofeng suggests that you can pack them and put them directly in the cloakroom.

Well, the above are the five plans that Xiaofeng shared with you about the design and storage of porch shoe cabinets, hoping to help friends whose new houses are small apartments ~
