Walk-In Closet
Some people might wonder what the point of a walk-in closet is if you could just get a dresser. But for the discerning who value what they wear, it’s an investment worth considering, especially if it’s highly customizable and see-through. It can get difficult to keep track of one’s clothing pieces; more often than not, older garments start moving to the back of the closet or getting buried underneath piles of other clothes.
With a transparent walk-in closet like the MisuraEmme Palo Alto Free, it becomes far easier to keep track of the things you have, and weed out what you don’t necessarily need. If you’ve been dreaming of creating that functional capsule wardrobe for the longest time, now might be the chance to do so with a walk-in closet space that will give you a good visual of exactly what you have, when you need it, making mixing and matching a breeze. Plus, if you have a couple of designer pieces that are too stunning to keep behind closed doors, this closet is a perfect place to put them on display. Those looking for MisuraEmme’s walk-in closets in the Philippines can easily find them at Opulence Design Concept.
Bookcase
Avid readers and book collectors can never have too many bookcases. If you’re starting to run out of space for storing your newest reads, then it’s time to consider getting them a nice home. That said, certain bookshelves can look a bit bulky, leaning more on functional than aesthetically pleasing. However, Minotti’s Zoe Bookcase defies expectations, providing a practical space for your volumes without compromising appearance.
Conceived by designer Hannes Peer for Minotti’s 2024 collection, the bookcase is an eye-catching yet understated piece that exudes sophistication. Through an interplay of volumes and geometric shapes, it evokes the tasteful aesthetic sensibilities of the 1970s. Composed of a glossy lacquered structure with wooden shelves, it blends into its surroundings while also acting as a decorative focal point within a space—ready to take on books of all shapes and types.
Display Cabinet
A display cabinet is a must-have piece if you have mementos, home decor, and other items that you’ve been meaning to showcase for a while. Laying them out on a table is fine, but there’s a gallery or collage-like beauty to having them take up a special spot of their own within a lovely cabinet.
The Lugano Wall-mounted Cabinet is one such piece that will surely do its precious objects justice. Its wall-mounted setup and beveled edges give it a modular, airy appearance that seamlessly blends into any modern space. It also comes in a variety of appealing, neutral finishes, namely Matte White Lacquered, Dark Oak Veneer, and Matte Ash Grey Lacquered, to suit your tastes and preferences.
Multi-Purpose Shelves
While the display cabinet is best used for more decorative purposes, you might be searching for shelves to hold your functional, everyday items in the kitchen, bathroom, and other spaces in the home. Vipp Shelves offer a versatile solution with a low-key design that keeps your space neat and practical features.
Each shelf comes with two surfaces in a U-shaped design that gives the appearance of floating. The surfaces are also lined with a silicone mat that keeps a firm grip on stored items to prevent them from slipping or falling.
Shoe Rack or Container
Every Asian household needs a good shoe rack or container to keep their footwear protected and organized (and the rest of the house free from messy footprints). Gone are the days of bulky shoe closets, as KARE’s Shoe Rack Walk Big proves. With a three-tier design, the rack can hold an impressive amount of shoes—perfect for members of the house and guests who come over. A filigree gold frame and round black lacquered rods also lend an elegant, vintage feel to the rack if you enjoy the aesthetic.
However, sometimes a house requires storage that will keep shoes free from dust, especially if you’ve got a few extra pairs that don’t often see the light of day. In this case, KARE’s Shoe Container Caruso is a sleek solution that comes in different finishes—including white, cream, green, taupe, bronze, rose, anthracite, and brushed silver—and offers five spacious drawers to store your footwear safely.
