Home Organisation Hacks To Maximise Your Storage

Storage space and organisation are two essential elements of a well-functioning home, that can sometimes be an afterthought in the planning process. Not only will a home where everything has a place look good, but there's nothing like the feeling of a tidy space. As a bonus, you'll rarely lose anything when you know you can find it in its designated place.  

To keep your new home spick and span, here are our top tips for home organising and how Swanbuild can help you achieve them in your new home… 

Linen Cupboard Organising

This is a classic tip for storing your sheet sets. To keep them organised, put all your sheets inside the matching pillowcase. This method makes it easy to grab them from the linen cupboard and makes stacking them a breeze. For the ultimate linen storage space, choose a home design with a walk-in linen cupboard like the Arcadia 21, Eden 22 or Eldorado 44.

Drawer Dividers

Drawer dividers are very helpful when you are organising drawers, particularly for bathrooms and bedrooms, where items tend to be smaller and can get lost rolling around in a large drawer. In the bathroom, dividers are great for separating individuals' small items. In the bedroom, they make it easy to group things, like socks and toys. 

Stackable Containers For The Pantry

If you get a thrill out of organising, then planning your pantry is one of the more enjoyable jobs when setting up your new home. To make your life easier, buy yourself a label maker to easily mark containers; salt and sugar can look remarkably similar outside their packaging. When choosing what containers to buy, select clear containers that can stack easily and come in multiple sizes. A walk-in pantry is fast becoming one of our most requested features. Check out the home designs Sandhurst 21, Monash 23 or Lockwood 29 to see how we've seamlessly added walk-in pantries to make these floor plans super functional.
