12 corners that were doing nothing, and what they hold now

A small corner turned into a reading nook with an armchair and a floor lamp

Every flat has dead corners. These twelve were measured before anything was bought, which is the only reason the solutions fit.

Behind the front door

A 12cm deep rail with hooks holds coats without stopping the door from opening fully. Measure the door swing first, then subtract two centimetres.

Beside the fridge

The gap next to most fridges is between 15 and 25cm. A narrow rolling trolley turns it into pantry storage that pulls out fully.

Above the door frame

A single shelf 20cm below the ceiling takes everything you use twice a year. It is invisible from seated height.

The rest

Under the stairs, the back of the wardrobe door, the space over the cistern, the run beside the sofa, the window reveal, the corner of the hallway, the top of the wardrobe, the wall beside the desk, and the floor under the bed — all measured, all filled with something that earns its place.
