Interior Decoration with rack Shelves
Interior decoration is one thing to fret about, but organizing the space to be furnished is another. Many people run around trying to harness whatever space is available to them in their rooms but most forget that the wall is a big area to cordon for some useful storage. Setting neatly aligned racks along your walls will double as a storage space for anything from books to cosmetics and medicines, as well as give your room a well organised feel.
Open shelves in kitchens are useful to store vessels, eatables or culinary items, and will look elegant rather than having stuff crammed into cabinets. Here are some inspirational ideas for you to organize your space beautifully by incorporating open shelves or racks. This is a work that you can also cook up with your own creativity as well.
Choose the right materials
Racks and open shelves can be made from wrought iron, mild steel, wood or PVC material. You can add a touch of authenticity with simple bamboo or cane baskets strung to make titled or tiered racks. Employ materials that would go well with the rest of the room’s decor, like using metal for contemporary and wooden for traditional looks. Each material is conducive to have any type of rack you need- ceiling-mounted, standing, wall hanging etc. One excellent way is to create niches inside the wall where you can keep your antique or prized collections.
Different types of shelves
You can bring the elegant look to your interior with various types of shelves. You can choose the shelves depending on the room for which you are choosing the shelves. Following are some recommended racks for you home interior.
Living Room: Installing Racks in the living room helps you to keep your magazines, showpieces, pictures etc. organized. You can purchase end tables that have open shelves in them or fashion a standing rack from wood or metal.

Hanging racks are quite the trend these days and a wide range of this type is available, from which pots, ladles, pans etc. can be hung. These are available in different shapes, so choose the one that complements your kitchen’s size.
Bedroom: One way to make the room look neat is to set niches inside the wall during the construction stages itself. With proper dimensions and sizes according to your needs, you can store your daily items and medicines in them.
