Don’t Make Your Spare Room a Storage Space!

What is the mental image that comes to your head when we talk about things to do with spare rooms? An unused space, just carrying dumps from other rooms, isn’t it? While planning a residential unit, a spare room is either created due to some negative spaces being left in the plan, or to meet the requirement list of the entire unit and it’s area chart.

Before stepping into the nitty-gritties and start creating a mood board for your spare room, just bullet list the functions you want your spare room to serve, according to their volume and area.  

Any room that's left untouched and lacks the light of function, there are multiple ways by which you can add character and purpose to the same. 

Here are some ideas, if you are up for some meticulous planning and ideas for spare room in your house: 

Create a Library

Ignite the bookworm in you and revamp your spare room into something different, you can make use of. Extend the room, a vintage and warm library, embracing wooden textures and fancy bookshelves. Don't forget 'THE CORNER', where you would curl up with your cup of joe, under a warming lamp, holding your favourite book. 

Walk-in closet

Let’s be honest. Everybody needs a walk-in closet and with the novel planning structure and norms, any residential unit is inclusive of the same. But, anyway, if you've always wanted a closet and you do have a spare one, this spare room idea might be your chance to revamp your room into a well-equipped closet space.

Your Decluttering Confidante

If you are aiming at some decluttering, this would actually be your answer to all your problems. You can go for some fancy or efficient organizers for arranging your clothes, bags, jewellery, shoes or anything else you are looking forward to decluttering. You know that chunky wedding-y paraphernalia that sees the sun once in a while, can be stored here without occupying your actual wardrobe space. 

Kids' Playroom

For those who are planning kids or are with kids can segregate this area as their playroom. You can set organisers and compartmentalise toys and other paraphernalia in your kids' room. Playing around with vibrant colours, adding rugs and furniture would also make the space interesting from an interior perspective.
