Consider a console cabinet an essential piece in an open floor plan. It’s slightly larger than a console table and provides more behind-closed-doors space. Position one behind a sofa that “floats” in the middle of a room and you’ll have a spot for lamps to illuminate the seating space, plus plenty of storage and a surface for placing drinks.

Add a platform bed to your room and you’ll not only elevate your room’s style but also, maximise storage space. With a wooden frame that fits a queen-size mattress and two large drawers on both sides of the bed that can be used to hold extra linens and blankets or off-season clothes, a platform bed is both functional and stylish.

Media Entertainment Centre
Whether you use it to store books, display decor, or hold gaming consoles, an entertainment centre is a must for any living room (or man cave). The one in the picture comes in three pieces—two bookcases and a centre console—that can stand alone or be arranged together to appear as a custom built-in media center. Plus, it’s available in 13 colours so you can choose one that fits your style, and additional bookcase shelves.

Like its cabinetry cousin, a console table adds storage but provides a different look. Baskets or bins can be lined up beneath for additional storage. Plus, console tables come in all sizes, so you’ll be able to choose a piece that’s the perfect fit for your space.

Shelving units add a little extra to your interior. They bring eye-catching attention to space while also storing your wares. This geometric shelf, for example, has plateaued shelves that dip down for added visual interest. An iron frame keeps the structure sturdy.

Drawers stacked beneath the top of a coffee table can conceal all sorts of items, such as board games, remotes, and magazines. Because these furniture pieces tend to be bulky, they work best in larger living rooms.

Floating shelves—especially in unexpected spaces, such as adjacent to a TV—are perfect for stashing smaller items. The shelves also help divide the space. Even though there are only two shelves here, the placement creates a third space perfect for stashing firewood.
