Storage meets design
A question of planning: Sophistication with elegance
The trick is to combine appealing design, high-quality materials and efficient use of space. Well-thought-out planning enables optimum use of space without compromising on quality or aesthetics.
Interior designer and content creator Leonie Pauls, of the Instagram channel @altbau22 provides tips on how storage space can be optimally utilised.
3 tips on how to make optimal use of storage space:
#1 Organise drawers: with organisation solutions like drawer dividers, small objects can be easily sorted. The amount of space needed to store kitchen utensils should be considered right from the planning stage.
#2 Use space wisely: floor-to-ceiling tall units and kitchen islands with storage space provide additional room to stow away your belongings.
#3 Intelligent recess solution: recess shelving provides additional space on the worktop for kitchen utensils. What’s more, it gives the kitchen an extra dose of charm.
A modern look – next125 Frame
The next125 Frame acts as a stylish feature that provides any kitchen with both storage space and structure. Under the motto ‘form follows function’, this wonderful organisation solution blends naturally into the recess and adds an elegant accent over the worktop. Different storage options can be cleverly combined here. For instance, spices or knives can be stored practically in the Frame in an aesthetically pleasing way.
The next125 Frame – countless possibilities
FRAME
There are two types of lighting for the Frame: Linear LED strip lights or a backlit acrylic glass surface. If you need some atmosphere, create a special mood with dimmable lighting. If you don’t want or need light you can simply fit out the frame without lighting.
Elegant efficiency – versatile tall unit fronts
Tall units, already wonderful inventions in a room on their own, can be perfectly combined with matching top units and provide efficient options for more storage space. When carefully incorporated, they create a uniform, linear look.
The next125 glass display unit, which looks great as a standalone piece, also fits perfectly into any row of tall units. The storage space that it provides is great for your favourite crockery, ornaments or special collector’s items. These are harmoniously but subtly showcased inside the glass display unit.

Stylish and practical – a built-in wine cooler
The generous wine cooler is a special decorative feature that blends seamlessly into the front of the tall unit. This elegant highlight provides plenty of storage space for your home wine collection.

A question of details – storage space needs to be organised
Order starts with the little things and even smaller trinkets or everyday objects require a designated storage space. Pull-outs provide a good overview and plenty of storage space; however, it is often difficult to use the whole space optimally. Thanks to our flexible organisation systems for drawers, extra space can be created or utensils reorganised. next125 achieves this with Flex-boxes made of moulded non-woven material, which transform every drawer into a customisable organisation solution with maximum efficiency. Pleasant to the touch and easy to clean, the material provides an elegant attire for even the most mundane kitchen accessories like coasters and salad servers.

Highlights such as the next125 Cube and Frame storage systems combine flexible organisation and perfect ergonomics.
