BEFORE YOU BUY ANY STORAGE:
---------------------------
[ ] Rule 1: Measure clearance and available air space first.
[ ] Rule 2: Purge or donate unused items before purchasing containers.
[ ] Rule 3: Use what you have (shoeboxes, drawer dividers) before buying new furniture.

ZONE 1: UNDER-BED SPACE
-----------------------
[ ] Measure floor-to-frame clearance height (ideally 6-10 inches).
[ ] Determine bed leg placements (measure distance between legs for container widths).
[ ] Inspect for out-of-season clothing, winter blankets, or extra shoes to move under-bed.
[ ] Choose low-profile wheeled bins or zipper dust bags with clear labels.

ZONE 2: BEHIND THE DOORS
------------------------
[ ] Check top-of-door gap clearance (needs ~2mm gap so door closes over metal brackets).
[ ] Install over-the-door pocket organizer for grooming, chargers, or shoes.
[ ] Add adhesive or screw-in heavy duty hooks for daily bags, robes, and jackets.
[ ] Keep interior closet doors utilized for accessories, scarves, or belts.

ZONE 3: VERTICAL WALL SPACE
---------------------------
[ ] Locate empty wall space above headboard, desk, or dresser (minimum 12 inches depth).
[ ] Install 2-3 floating wall shelves to lift books, decor, and ambient lighting off surfaces.
[ ] Swap bulky table lamps for wall-mounted plug-in sconces to free bedside space.
[ ] Use a compact pegboard or grid panel above desks for tools, headphones, and stationery.

ZONE 4: DESK & FLAT SURFACES
----------------------------
[ ] Encase extension cords and multi-plugs inside an enclosed cable management box.
[ ] Elevate monitor or laptop with a riser that allows keyboard tucking underneath.
[ ] Maintain the 70% clear surface rule on bedside nightstands to reduce visual clutter.
[ ] Add expandable drawer dividers to separate socks, cables, and daily accessories.

ZONE 5: CORNERS & DEAD SPACE
----------------------------
[ ] Inspect 90-degree room corners for wasted triangular floor space.
[ ] Install floating corner shelving units for vertical book or plant display.
[ ] Place a tall, narrow slimline laundry hamper in otherwise unusable nook space.
[ ] Hang ceiling plant hooks or vertical light pendants in empty corners.
