The adage “You can never have too much storage space” is particularly true when it comes to building your new home. A well designed home will provide ample storage that is smart and well-proportioned within the home. The storage space should not take away from the living space but allow the living space to fulfill its purpose in your lifestyle, efficiently and enjoyably. For me that means no clutter! For others it may mean organized clutter! Whether you are a collector, artist, athlete, cook, or hobbyist there are a multitude of ways to create great storage for all your things.
