From ugh to aah✨
Sometimes, the best use of a space is to leave it empty.
This cupboard was serving no purpose other than being a landing spot for my client to tuck away random items they didn’t know where else to store.
Once everything was sorted and given a proper home (or donated), the space was left clean, clear, and ready for its next purpose: a pantry for a future kitchenette.
Putting something away isn’t the same as deciding what to do with it. When we tuck things out of sight, we may think it’s a solution, but we’re actually creating a future problem.
And if a space doesn’t have a purpose yet? That’s okay - leave it empty until it does.
You really don’t need to fill every shelf, cupboard, or corner. Sometimes, an empty space is full of possibility. 🤍
