A niche is not always a lack of an apartment. On the contrary, this feature of the layout can be viewed as an additional option. There are a whole lot of options for competent and useful arrangement of niches. The designer told about some of them Tatiana Maslennikova.

5. Open shelving

By designing a niche as an open shelving, you can save a little on furniture. Such a niche will become not only a bright accent point of the interior, but can also be used as a partition. At the same time, it will not look too massive due to the open shelves.

In turn, they can be highlighted with color to indicate brighter contrast.

4. Kitchen in a niche

A very functional solution will be a kitchen in a niche. This technique will allow the headset to completely merge with the wall, creating a single front with it. This is especially true for a kitchen-living room format.

If the niche is deep enough, you can go further and hide the kitchen behind sliding facades or accordion doors that retract into the side openings.

Thus, you achieve the effect of "invisible kitchen", which will allow you to efficiently use the space and reduce visual noise.

3. Laundry corner

If your apartment does not allow you to allocate a separate pantry for a laundry room, you can equip it in the niche of the bathroom. At the same time, the tumble dryer and washing machine are easy to stack on top of each other, thereby saving space.

Thus, they will both be hidden, but still be easily accessible.

2. For appliances in the kitchen

If you do not want household appliances to look aloof and stand out excessively in the canvas of kitchen facades, consider this option. A refrigerator and appliances can be placed in niches, designed in the form of a column.

This solution will distract unnecessary attention from the instruments and smooth out the big picture.

1. Dressing table

A niche can be a great place to look for beauty. The option of placing a dressing table in a niche will allow you not to clutter up the bedroom space, in which, as a rule, this object is located.

A huge advantage of this solution is that a niche of even a very small depth is suitable for such a corner.
