Storage Cabinet Storage Type Design Photos and Ideas

Oak lines the interior for a tactile surprise, and the marble counter echoes the marble on the island and perimeter counters.
The sculptural end piece to some of the cabinetry in the kitchen echoes some of the other arched motifs. The natural wood is an anomaly in the kitchen, whose cabinets, backsplash, and countertop feature man-made materials.
The renovation of a Victorian-era home in Portland, Oregon, included updating the entry area with new storage and a muted pink hue, picked in collaboration with the client. "She wasn't afraid of color," says Stephanie Dyer of Dyer Studio, who paired it with a deeper burgundy shade for the doors.
Relocating the kitchen door and changing the windows to high, small units created much more space for storage.

Lin specified the String shelving across the walnut panel wall and had it surround a restored Paul McCobb credenza that the couple found at a garage sale twenty years ago. “Almost everything in our apartment has a story,” says Kitty.
Walnut built-ins store household odds-and-ends, clothing, and create a desk for work.
The entrance to the walk-in closet is marked by another bench floating across the window, and a mirror inset in white oak.
Now, there’s a built-in vanity with the same oiled white oak storage at the entry to the main suite.
Berg likes the efficiency of built-in storage to free up floor space, such as with this wall-mounted credenza with a curved detail. “I tend to think of boats when I design a house,” says Berg.
Berg floated a seating bench across a new kitchen window, which brings attention to the lowered sill placement.
A detailed shot of one of the custom storage pieces designed by Berg, a sideboard against the dining room wall under the circular interior window. The floors throughout are the main source of pattern in the minimalist palette, and they are white oak laid in a herringbone arrangement.
The cabin has abundant storage, although there isn’t much to store. “You’re certainly not going anywhere when you’re there,” says Nathalie. “It’s all work clothes or warm clothes or ranch clothes, you know?”
The overall design balances high- and low-cost materials—as in IKEA kitchen cabinets alongside custom shelving and a Breville espresso machine.
The frosted glass-fronted cabinet in the living room contains shoes and bags on the side by the entrance and tableware nearer to the kitchen.
The same detailing is found here for consistency, including a quartz counter in Lincoln White from Daltile white counter and a more dramatic porcelain backsplash, the Calacatta Aries pattern from Daltile’s Panoramic Porcelain Series. The faucet is by Grohe.
The shelves and the hidden bar are painted a delightful ‘Tarrytown Green’ by Benjamin Moore.
The couple packed storage around the stairs, with cabinets underneath and shelves lining the tread.
Around the corner behind the stairs, they tucked a bar nook and pantry, which is where the refrigerator is located. The wallpaper is by MakeLike, the concrete tile is Zia Tile in Midnight, the counter is Ikea butcher block that’s stained ebony, and the pulls are by Lo&co.
<span style="font-family: Theinhardt, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, &quot;Segoe UI&quot;, Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif;">MASA Architects constructed the built-in cabinets using side-pressed and lacquered bamboo.</span>
Custom white oak cabinetry conceals the pantry and a bar. The seating nook is a favorite family spot, as the kids can hang out there and draw while the parents are cooking dinner.
Vertical elements like the tall cabinets at either end of the kitchen, emphasized with vertical wood detailing, help frame the kitchen within the otherwise large, open space.
Storage was added at every opportunity – by the door, under the stairs, and under the bed.
Custom white oak storage with slatted fronts lines the wall of the family room, blending in with the other finishes. The lower ceiling—nine feet high—fosters a cozy room to curl up and watch TV.
The wardrobes and bathroom shelves were made to order.
A cut-out, light pink doorway connects the living area to the entrance while hiding closet doors on both sides.

At a renovated home in Nevada, cabinetmaker Ben Wilborn carefully matched the grain of the kitchen cabinets, and the homeowners paired the wood with modern stainless steel cabinet pulls.
Perforated cabinet faces above the reading nook conceal an energy-efficient, mini-split heating and cooling system. Bleached and whitewashed maple lines the nook, while drawers below provide plenty of storage.
Home Renovation Tip: Remember to Stay Positive
A walnut-wrapped stereo system fits perfectly in the allotted space. "It really looks exactly like what you would expect in a midcentury modern house from that era," says Glenn.
Woodshop 506 did the millwork for the cabinets and shelves throughout the home.
Cheng inserted built-in drawers into a niche, then created an opportunity for display with open shelves above.
The custom storage at the center of the open plan defines the separate rooms, while open sight lines keep them united. "My solution for the unused living room was to custom-design a TV lift cabinet to help define the living room space, offer a reason to gather on the sofa, and provide additional storage," says Cheng. "The back of the lift cabinet has open shelves for decor and small toy storage, while the benches on either end have seats that lift up to stash larger items."
The wardrobes in the girls' rooms are secretly connected through one cabinet door—an example of the whimsy and wonder Welsch infused throughout the home.
Steel plate makes for an ultra-low-profile countertop and echoes the steel used inside and out.
The custom storage behind the bed has cut-out finger pulls that mimic the cabinetry downstairs. "Hardware can almost end up being like a piece of jewelry," says Fowler, who likes the minimalist approach here. "It’s almost in the negative, flush with the face of the cabinet. Just shadow," she says.
Nive buys loads of fresh produce and wanted a place to store it that was accessible and uncluttered, so the team provided these open shelves.
Built-in cabinetry at the entryway ensures a place for everything is baked right into the design from the start. "We try to encourage our clients on all projects to not make the house bigger than it needs to be," says Loader. "Make it the right size, and design a space for everything."
Custom oak cabinetry by Woodchuck is fitted with Futugami handles via Pantoufle.
Antonio named this chair/shelf/side table prototype Volada, which means "cantilevered" in Spanish. Here, he experimented with different paint treatments. "I sprayed paint from different distances and used different brushes," he says. "It illustrates the play of light and shadow on surfaces."
Antonio transformed a sliver of space off the living area between the bedroom and bath into a walk-in closet with floor-to-ceiling cabinets. He bought the bust from a sculptor in Palma de Mallorca and built the display shelf.
A freestanding wall in the living area creates a divider for the entryway while concealing mechanical systems and providing storage.
Built-in window seats and library shelving provide storage and a place to sit.
A built-in bench at the entry provides storage—a boon, granted the home’s compact footprint.
For a fun surprise, bright camellia pink was used inside the Equitone cabinets.

Streamlined birch plywood cabinetry and a maple butcher-block counter forms the kitchenette, which isn’t intended for extensive meal prep. The building is a blend of "a bedroom and camping," says Shaw, which means much of the cooking and cleaning happens outside.
Rejuvenation wall hooks match the shade of the bench cushion. The laundry room's Heath tiles are colored in "Heron Blue."
The bespoke walnut storage and brass hardware in the principal bedroom was designed by Tang. The lamp is by Noguchi.
New storage in the bedroom complements the historic detail at the ceiling.
