How to choose office storage furniture?
Here are our tips for choosing the right office storage cabinet for your needs, space, and style.
Choose furniture according to your needs
Before choosing your furniture, ask yourself a few important questions. Do you need a lot of storage space or just a small piece of occasional furniture? How big is your room? Depending on its dimensions, you can choose a larger or smaller piece of furniture. Storage cabinets are very practical because they are compact and fit easily into a small room, next to your desk. And if you're short on space, you can always add wall shelves. If you're limited by the size of your room, opt for a tall piece of furniture rather than a wide one to take advantage of the height without cluttering up floor space.
A style that matches your decor
Storage furniture is practical, but it must also be visually appealing. Working in a well-decorated office promotes motivation and concentration. In our catalog, you'll find storage furniture in a variety of styles:
- Scandinavian: light wood furniture with clean lines
- Bohemian: wooden bookcases with drawers and doors covered in canework
- Industrial: raw wood-colored furniture with black metal legs, or entirely made of metal, for a very modern look
- Contemporary: minimalist shelving for a simple and elegant look
The most important thing is to coordinate the different pieces of furniture in your room. Your new storage cabinet should complement your desk. You can then create a unique contrast with colorful decor or wall shelves, for example.
The different types of storage
Storage cabinets can incorporate several types of storage solutions:
- Drawers: practical for storing papers or preventing the loss of small accessories.
- Closed storage cabinets: perfect for hiding your clutter and keeping your belongings out of sight. The unit can be closed with hinged or sliding doors, ideal for saving space.
- Shelves: open units with shelves are more spacious and visually lighten the room. You can use them to store your decorative items or storage boxes for your documents.
How to organise your office space?
Don't have an entire room dedicated to work? Don't panic, sometimes all it takes is a well-designed corner to create a functional workspace. Ideally, opt for an office unit with built-in storage or a small storage cabinet. A high shelf or openwork piece of furniture can also serve as a partition to visually separate your office area from the rest of the room. Add a few decorative elements to personalise the space, and you'll have a practical, pleasant, and well-appointed office space.
Whether you're organizing your files, storing your supplies, or displaying your books, a good office storage cabinet makes all the difference. With sweeek, create an organised and pleasant space with practical, attractive, and affordable furniture.
