The closed shelf is a real ace up the sleeve for those who want a home that is always tidy, elegant and functional.
Every room can benefit from it, not only from a practical and storage perspective, but also from an aesthetic point of view :
- eliminates visual clutter, the kind of clutter generated not so much by actual chaos, but by the display of practical but not aesthetically pleasing objects (packaging, bottles, practical tools, etc.).
- It offers extra space to organize what you really need in each room.
But what exactly should you put inside a closed shelf? Let's take a look at it together, room by room, to make the most of this versatile piece of furniture.
Living Room: How to Use a Closed Shelf for a Clean, Tidy Look
In the living room, a simple cabinet with internal shelves is the king of invisible organization.
It is useful for storing those items that tend to create clutter, such as, for example, cables, board games, tablecloths, dinnerware and spare candles.
If you have a collection of video games or old magazines that you don't want to display, a closed shelf is the ideal solution.
For a designer touch, choose a shelf in a color that harmonizes with your decor palette.
If you opt for a low, wide cabinet, you can take advantage of the top shelf to add decorative items like paintings, vases of fresh or dried flowers, scented candles, and a few design books. This not only adds personality to your shelf, but also turns it into a focal point of the living room.
In this area of the house, the importance of a closed shelf is not only practical, but also aesthetic.
Maintaining a clean line of sight without clutter makes the environment more relaxing and welcoming , inviting your guests to enjoy the space without visual distractions .
Kitchen: How to Use a Closet to Hide Clutter
In the kitchen, a closed/open shelf is a precious ally for those who want to keep the space usable, but aesthetically impeccable.
It represents a turning point in the organization of a small kitchen .
Use it to store pots and pans, small appliances like blenders or toasters, and food supplies that aren't particularly attractive to display, like cereal boxes or pasta packages.
Make use of the open shelves to display carefully selected designer kitchen accessories , jars, or wooden, metal, or glass utensils to keep within easy reach.
On the doors of our closed Levante, made of painted steel, you can also hang, with a magnet, a shopping list to update as you go.
Remember that organization is essential in the kitchen: a closed shelf allows you to divide the internal spaces with dividers or boxes , making it easy to find what you're looking for and keeping everything in its place.
Bedroom: Arrange the closed shelf for a relaxing atmosphere
In the bedroom, a closed shelf becomes a valuable ally for hiding anything you don't want to leave out in plain sight. Use it to store linens, out-of-season clothes, or books you've already read but want to keep close at hand.
It's also perfect for hiding more personal items like diaries, photos, or memory boxes.
A pair of low closed cabinets can take the place of a classic chest of drawers, giving a more modern and fresh look even to a room furnished with classic furniture .
For a touch of design, choose a shelf that complements the style of your room. If you have limited space, a tall, narrow shelf can maximize verticality without taking up too much floor space.

Color choice makes all the difference. You can take advantage of the presence of a shelf by adding a contrasting shade for a wow effect .
If your bathroom is small, a vertical shelf can be a practical solution to save space .
Not only does it hide clutter, but it can also contribute to a cleaner, more peaceful environment, ideal for a moment of relaxation.
