Open storage systems are one of the trends in modern design. In the interiors of the whole world, kitchen hanging cabinets are willingly replaced with shelves, they make the locker room for all to see and leave the doors for shelving. But does that make sense? We deal with specialists.
1. Everything at hand
The undeniable advantage of open storage is that everything you need is in full view and under your arm. You don’t have to open a lot of boxes and review the contents of all the scanners to find the right item.

2. Visually lightweight design
The absence of massive wall cabinets and replacing them with neat open shelves is a good way to visually lighten the design. The main thing is to think over careful storage and keep order.
3. The possibility of quick change
If decorative compositions on open shelves are fed up with you, changing them to new ones, refreshing the interior, will be easier than ever.
4. Decorative moment
Many open shelves and racks, in addition to functional, carry a decorative function, being themselves a bright design element.
5. Shelf content as a bright accent
Another advantage of open storage is the ability to make the contents of racks and shelves an integral part of the situation, a bright accent of the interior.
6. Comfort and mood
Open shelves allow you to place dear things, indoor plants, mini-collections, family photos and other little things that set the mood and create coziness.
1. The need to carefully monitor the order
In the open system in the truest sense of the word everything is in sight. To ensure that the contents of racks and shelves do not create a sense of chaos and disorder, you must carefully monitor the accuracy of storage.
2. The importance of regular cleaning
Open shelves and their contents are also a “dust collector”, which means regular cleaning is necessary, which, of course, requires time and effort.
3. Costs for optional accessories
Almost always, the organization of an open storage system requires the purchase of additional accessories: baskets, boxes, boxes, decorative trifles. Thus, the creation of stylish compositions on open shelves can result in considerable expenses.
4. Visual noise
If the open storage system is quite large, and the room itself does not differ in impressive dimensions, you can get the effect of visual noise instead of lightweight space.
