How to Make the Most of the Space Under the Stairs

The space under the stairs is complicated as it does not have height or many meters, but with imagination we can make it a very functional place. And if our house does not shine for its number of square meters, even more reason to use the corner under the stairs for what can provide us with more service.

What to look out for?

Depending on where our staircase is located and the needs we have, we will take advantage of the space, with the idea of achieving a useful mini room but also with meaning and completely integrated into the rest of the house.

Ideas for making the most of the space under the stairs

Expand the kitchen

If, for example, our first floor is a loft, an open-plan room, where the living room and kitchen come together, we can take the opportunity to enlarge the kitchen, something that we all usually look for, placing the fridge, some drawers, the breakfast table, a countertop...

Shelving and cabinets

If it is closer to the living room, we can take the opportunity to design a bookshelf or place some drawers and display cabinets to organize tablecloths, glassware, books...
We can also think about the little ones in the house and take advantage of this space to create their play corner.

Your pet's stay

If you have a dog or a cat, another idea is to create their space here, place their bed, their toys...

Home Office

Another original and very useful idea is to use this small corner as a desk, set up your own office, you will see that once the space is finished it will seem much larger and more used: a table, a chair, some shelves... Just enough for you to work comfortably and comfortably.

Laundry room

On the other hand, if we are willing to carry out a work, we can even expand our home by building a toilet or a laundry room under the stairs.

Storage and dressing rooms

As a wardrobe or dressing room, we all always need extra wardrobes, shoe racks and drawers, the years go by and we tend to accumulate everything, so we can build a mini dressing room to squeeze the most out of this space and thus have an extra place of storage.

    Hola! El asunto que tengo es que tengo mi escritorio debajo del espacio, pero arriba está la puerta de una terracita que usamos muy seguido, y eso hace que caiga mucho polvo. Alguna idea para prevenir esto? Es una escalera de hierro, los escalones son como de un tejido, o sea que pasa todo para abajo. Cualquier idea lo super agradezco! Saludos!
