Noticed?
Houses in the 90s will have a utility room downstairs, even if it is not big, but it can put a lot of out-of-season objects, which is really easy to use.
Nowadays, houses are getting more and more expensive, and the area is getting smaller and smaller. Although the storage cabinet has been able to do everything, but a radish and a pit, after living for a long time, you will always feel that the storage space is not enough.
Fully expanding the storage space has become the most concerned topic for many people in decoration.
Your home's air conditioning well may be wasted.
There are air conditioning units in every house, but many times they come out in the form of bay windows.
Because the area is not large, it can only accommodate an external machine, and the transformation will also destroy the appearance, and there is a certain danger, so this kind of bay window has no value for expansion.
However, if your home is in the form of an air-conditioning well, then you can think about how to remodel, maybe this will become a treasure storage room for you. (Image below).
From the inside, the air conditioning shaft is erected, leaving an installation opening for entry and exit, and the height inside may be the same as the floor of your home. (Image below).
Generally speaking, if the height of the air conditioning shaft in your home is sufficient, and you only need to place an external unit, the space of this shaft will not be used up.
So, under the consideration of not destroying the appearance and enough safety, you can consider a certain transformation of it, otherwise it will be wasted.
Several modification options for air conditioning wells.
1. Clothes drying area.
Many of today's homes are designed with internal balconies.
Washed laundry is either dried or left to dry on the balcony. However, the living room has been extended to the balcony, and drying on the balcony is no different from drying in the living room. This kind of drying blocks the light, not to mention, it is not good-looking.
So, if you happen to have an air-conditioning well on your balcony, maybe you can convert it into a drying area for your clothes. After washing, the clothes are directly pushed inside to dry, which is not only beautiful but also does not block the light.
2. Storage cabinets.
Many families rarely consider housekeeping cabinets when they are making designs.
In the later use, the mop and bucket are stuffed when there is a place, and the whole space looks very dirty.
If you happen to have an air-conditioning well in your home, maybe you can set aside a piece of space to make a storage cabinet.
During construction, you can use an iron frame to divide the air conditioning well into two layers, and the upper layer is closed as the location of the air conditioner outside unit. The lower layer can be used as a storage cabinet.
In the position below, you can make a cabinet door, some mops in the later stage, buckets or something can be put inside, because this place also comes with a drain, so even if the mop is wet, you don't have to worry about drainage, it's perfect.
3. Storage room.
This situation is more special, if you have other places to place the air conditioner in your home, maybe you can use the entire air conditioning well as a storage room. (Image below).
The possibilities for home expansion are endless, and in practice, we need to fully develop them so as not to waste space.
However, it should be noted that no matter what kind of modification, it is necessary to pay attention to safety and not damage the structure and appearance.
