Often the space behind your couch is unused, or, if it is pushed right up against the wall, moving it out a foot or so will not make a big difference to the amount of floor space that you have but it will make a huge difference to the amount of organizational space you will gain. Place a console table with shelving behind your couch and you immediately gain extra storage space. You can also place a lamp on top of the console for more light and you can use it as a convenient place to keep your remotes. If you dont want to buy a console, you can learn how to make one at Young House Love.
