Expedit x 2

When I made space for a chair in the bedroom I had to move the smallest Expedit* to another spot. I’d had thought that it would work here, by the livingroom window as it worked having it in front of the window in the bedroom. But it was no good at all here. Probably because the windowsill is double-size here. I was not happy at all with this solution. Looked like a furniture storage place with everything on top of each other…

Only thing it was good for was to tuck away that stuff that all the time go in and out the door to the outside place this time of the year. And to place the huge monstera on. Some rethinking was needed. And measuring. For a while there I even considered to throw out (or sell) the monstera so I could move the chaise-lounge closer to the window and the light.

This is how it was placed before I made space for a chair in the bedroom.

So what did I do with the small Expedit*? Turned out it could live on top of the larger Expedit*. So there it went.

Up it went. And I think it looks good there as it is almost the same height as the oak-veneer wardrobes with shiny white doors to the left. Right? As the door is  a sliding-door, it goes right behind the two Expedit and gives them a white background. That the Expedit* on top is shiny white and the one at the bottom is non-shiny doesn’t really matter. Did some reorganizing of the content in the Expedits and still have one slot that is empty.

The chair in the bedroom still has its place.

*) Expedit by Ikea has been remodeled and renamed and is now called Kallax. Some measures differ between the old Expedit and the new Kallax.
