Wondering how to create niches in your interioror use the existing recesses in the wall? The answers to these questions are in our today's article. Quite recently, we have already talked about, and today I would like to pay attention to bookshelves, which can also find their place in wall recesses. But before we get started, let's get down to the main points. We take into account the subtleties of design Of course, it is best to create niches at the stage of project development, because this will take into account all the features of the interior and achieve the maximum result. But if during dismantling or repairs you have unwanted protrusions, or you simply decided to hide communications, then playing with such places with the help of a niche is also a good solution. Stepan Bugaev, interior designer - Niches and recesses are usually made of drywall. To give more volume, the structure is painted in a contrasting color compared to the rest of the walls. Creating a niche allows you to hide heating elements. You can organize pretty comfortable backlit shelves to accommodate books. Another way to help create niches is to use built-in furniture. Our opinion: - In any case, the main thing is to clearly understand what you want to do with the space that has appeared. Because there are often cases when a beautiful niche with bookshelves turns into a place for collecting all kinds of rubbish, losing all its lovely qualities. 
We equip the living room in the West with a classican option for placing bookshelves in a niche is a place on both sides of the fireplace. So you can always read your favorite book or admire family photos, sitting by the warm hearth in your soft armchair. But if the house does not have a fireplace, it doesn’t matter, in such a large room there will definitely be a secluded corner where the niche will look very welcome. Stepan Bugaev, interior designer - In the living room, creating a niche or recess in the wall allows you to functionally place all the books in the house. This is especially effective when the wall is a partition between two zones: the technique with a niche allows you to use it in the most functional way. 
Improving the bedroom Equip the bedroom - alsoa great idea that is increasingly being used by designers in modern interiors. Now you don't have to go far for your favorite publications to read, comfortably sitting on your bed. Niches are most often made on both sides of the headboard, although there are other options for location, for example, along the entire wall or in small recesses. Stepan Bugaev, interior designer - If the bedroom space allows, several niches organized along the entire wall will help dilute the boring smooth walls and give the interior a certain rhythm and dynamics. This is, of course, a more decorative technique. 
Modifying the workplace If your working areaand so it is in a niche (and this option is quite popular in small rooms), then, undoubtedly, bookshelves will give it even more functionality. Now there is no need to fill the drawers of the table "to the eyeballs" or run to another room for the next reference book. From now on, everything you need will be right at your fingertips. Our opinion: - This is a really useful idea and "wise" organization of the workplace. When the necessary literature is in a second's availability, you will significantly save your time and quickly begin to cope with the tasks, without being distracted from the workflow. 
Don't forget about lighting As always, one of thethe most important point, which even professionals sometimes miss, is the right one. Therefore, make sure that the niches with bookshelves have the necessary lighting. And it will be spotlights, LED bulbs or other light sources - it's up to you to decide, the main thing is not to forget to bring the wiring even at the stage of rough finishing.
