As expensive as it is to live in London, it can be difficult for you to find space for all of your belongings. Especially when you can only afford to rent a dustbin with an en suite, with little space to stretch your legs! Seeking alternative storage is often the best solution for a London dweller. It frees up space in your property but doesn’t force you to leave anything important behind during the move.

Below the team at Store That self-storage in East London, are discussing the many ways you can get creative with your storage space.

Storage Lets You Get Artsy

Pursuing a career in an artistic industry such as art or video production is one of the motivations people have when moving to London. What better way to kickstart your career than by making a creative space for yourself in your own home? Getting the right mood in your space to adopt a creative mindset can sometimes be an awkward process. When you’re lacking in some creative juices, it is bound to prompt a change. Decluttering your workspace is always one of the first steps that should be explored.

It’s time to tuck away the mountains of ancient paperwork from school into storage, and make way for some tools of the trade! Brush away the dusty books for some new paintbrushes and paint your heart out onto the canvas. More of a practical artist? Why not explore some tooling space so you can fabricate your next piece. Excellent organisation and storage management will be key to your survival as a London artist.

The Many Forms Of Art

Art isn’t just about painting or making, it can also be performance-based. Because of the rise of online sharing platforms such as YouTube, Twitter, DeviantArt and Fiverr, it has never been easier to share your content with the world. Stand-up comics are one medium of art that is on the rise. Comedians like Bo Burnham gained worldwide acclaim after uploading videos on YouTube from his bedroom. Proof that you don’t need to bother renting out an expensive studio in an arts district to flex your talented muscles. Even Justin Bieber started out filming his music in his house, and he is worth millions now! As I said previously, it’s not just musicians and traditional artists who can benefit. The “Maker” community is a bustling online group that has recently sprouted over the last decade. One of the most popular makers Simone Giertz started her robotics projects from her houseboat in Sweden!

If you’re looking to create a space for shooting your online videos, why not declutter your spare room by placing all of the bits and bobs in a storage container. Then, you can redecorate the space with soundproofing tiles and recording equipment without it being cluttered.
