Shoe collection for compact storage inside the galoshnitsy traditionally decomposed on moving or rigidly fixed shelves, as well as in individual cells. More expensive storage systems assume its placement on such auxiliary elements as metal racks, wooden pads and hangers with clips for fastening high models of shoes.

Shoe cabinets, racks and other storage devices can be placed, combining practicality with aesthetics, in almost any interior. The main thing is that the shoe construction, while pursuing singularity and individuality, should not contradict the general style and decorate the room.

In a private house and a spacious apartment, it would be logical to build a storage system in a separate dressing room, using high cabinets and cabinets of various heights. In the dressing room, shelves or shelves made of materials painted in light or white colors will always look advantageous. On a light background all details of footwear are clearly visible.If the collection contains pairs of the same but different in shades, the choice of this color of the shelves will be very relevant.

An excellent choice for a pantry or dressing room will be a wardrobe, in which for each pair there will be a separate open cell. This method organizes a large shoe collection, allows you to quickly select the desired pair and gives a strict look to the room. Even a very narrow section of the wall can be used under such a rack, the depth of the shelves of 35-40 cm will be quite enough for comfortable placement of shoes. Open shelves of minimally treated wood will add to the brutality and nobility of men's dressing room.

Furniture ensembles from cabinets with cells and shelves will also decorate a large family wardrobe. It will be very convenient to place the shelves on adjustable holders, which will allow to change the distance between the shelves, depending on whether the shoes or boots what height is required to arrange. Shelves can be retractable, which saves space and adds roominess.

In a narrow hallway, where only the most necessary daily wearable shoes are usually placed, a shallow niche or dead-end wall will do. It can be convenient to place near the entrance door of a small cabinet under the seat, on which it is convenient to sit down to put on shoes and tie shoelaces. In the spacious hallway, you can not only install open or closed high-capacity shoe structures, but also place in the center a round bollard of large diameter with soft upholstery, equipped with pull-out segments for slippers and other items under the seat.

Unusual racks with baskets made of natural wicker will decorate the hall in country style. Styles of modern and neoclassical complement the boxes of colored plastic with an imitation of various textures. The classic set of furniture will complement the shoebox with minimally processed wooden planes. It is possible to decorate the facades intricate type-setting or carved elements, equipment handles in bronze.

If there is a tiny hallway in the home and there is no space for a dressing room, any suitable part of the space in the hallway, bedroom or living room will suit for shoes. In a wide corridor along the wall, you can install a low cabinet or a rack with sloping shelves that have stops to prevent falling shoes. In a small bedroom, a bar for hanging things on a hanger can be mounted into the ceiling, and under it you can put a neat, shallow galoshnit on the wall.

You can attach a tall galoshnit to the dividing partition in a spacious room, which will usefully take up space. An unusual option for the demarcation of the room will be the rack to the ceiling, in which a part of the shelves is allocated for shoes. The rack can be hung with a fashionable eyelet curtain.

Designers offer a variety of ideas that allow you to use the most secluded corners of the house for shoe storage systems. Any asymmetry of space will dictate a non-standard cabinet geometry, shape and degree of shelves inclination. So, a good place to store can be, for example, the attic, where in the place of the largest bevel of the ceiling would be logical to build a capacious shoe cabinet.

The space under the stairs can be used wisely, by re-equipping the steps under the boxes, providing them with reliable guiding mechanisms and handles. If it is impossible to organize a repository inside the stairs, it is worth considering the possibility of practicing under a shoe storage room in the sub-scoriated space.
