3. Under Stair Library
The space beneath a staircase often goes unused, but it can be cleverly transformed into a library. Custom built shelving fitted to the unique shape of the stairs maximizes storage while adding character to the home.
A bench seat with cushions can be tucked under the stairs, or a reading chair can be placed nearby. Add soft lighting to enhance the cozy atmosphere. An under stair library is especially practical for smaller homes and creates a striking focal point in hallways or entryways.
