For our latest lookbook, we've collected ten interiors that use clever storage solutions, including custom-made shelving, pegboard walls and hidden bench spaces, to create streamlined, uncluttered interiors.

These homes from the Dezeen archive all feature storage design that helps them make the most of their space.

From Taiwan to Portugal, from micro apartments to homes with double-height ceilings, there are solutions for homes of all sizes.

This is the latest roundup in our Dezeen Lookbooks series that provides visual inspiration for designers and design enthusiasts. Previous lookbooks include homes with playful slides, stylish plywood interiors and interiors with window seats.

In Madrid, a disused art studio was turned into a mirrored extension by studio Delavegacanolasso.

Inside the 50-square-metre house, the studio has added plenty of built-in storage, which was designed to run around the periphery of the room to free-up floor space.

A wooden work desk by the window slots perfectly into the space above a storage area with simple, sleek white drawers and cabinets.
