Functional joinery is a trend that is here to stay. This is because it is the perfect solution for optimizing spaces, especially in a small house or apartment, and also ensuring the organization of the rooms.
Furthermore, we cannot forget the decorative potential that a wooden covering or piece of furniture offers in an environment. Therefore, we have selected some models of how joinery can be functional in any room in the house.
You will also see tips from architect Júlia Guadix, who runs the Studio Guadix office. So, don’t forget to write down the advice and save your favorite photos. These are examples of hidden rooms, multifunctional furniture and ways to use them in the living room, bedroom and kitchen.
What looks like a simple wall with wooden slats actually hides a door to a room. After all, a good carpentry project can offer more personality to environments, and, at the same time, meet the needs of residents. This project was developed by Júlia Guadix. Photo: Guilherme Pucci
From this angle it becomes clearer that there is a bathroom hidden amidst the functional woodwork. The architect used this technique to make the passage lighter and more minimalist. Photo: Guilherme Pucci
Still in this same apartment, a joinery wall was built. The variation in colors and shapes will depend on the tastes of the residents. Photo: Guilherme Pucci
However, the wall is nothing more than a large sliding door that separates the social part of the bedroom. This technique is excellent for those who live in a loft and want a little privacy for their intimate area while residents receive visitors. Photo: Guilherme Pucci
Most apartments have a laundry room integrated with the kitchen. Therefore, functional joinery ends up being an excellent solution for creating a divider between spaces. Photo Guilherme Pucci
With that, Júlia created cabinets to hide laundry items. To hide the washing machine, the furniture forms a kind of cabinet-box, which also includes a rod to hang a hanger. Photo: Guilherme Pucci
On the other hand, an excellent tip for those who live in a small apartment and need items that offer a feeling of spaciousness is to opt for a mirror. In this case, the object was perfect for hiding the bathroom. Source: Instagram
Furthermore, in small houses the laundry room is usually integrated with the kitchen. In this case, functional carpentry was used to cover the tank and create extra space on the counter. Photo: Instagram
This small balcony brings together a series of elements that transform it into a multifunctional environment. Firstly, we have a table that transforms the space into a leisure area. In addition, there is also a laundry hidden in the functional carpentry shop, a coffee corner and a wine cellar. Photo: Instagram

Multifunctional furniture
Through the carpentry work, the room gained yet another applicability: behind the headboard, the architect created a complete piece of furniture for the home office. Measuring 2.85m long, 45cm deep and 75cm high, the piece offers ergonomics for working hours and also has drawers for organizing items. Photo: Guilherme Pucci
In this case, what was supposed to be a simple dividing counter between the kitchen and living room was transformed into a beautiful china cabinet. To do this, it was necessary to build in some wooden niches and glass doors, which help keep items dust-free. Photo: Instagram
Many people dream of having a German corner at home, but there isn’t always a corner available for it. Therefore, the solution found was to create a sofa with seating on both sides. Photo: Instagram
Furthermore, instead of a wall, how about using the rack as a divider between the bedroom and the living room? This is a simple, cheap and perfect technique for ensuring privacy inside a loft, for example. Photo: Instagram @arq_designer
You know that corner between the sofa and the wall that you don’t quite know how to decorate? The residents of this apartment opted for a sofa made with functional joinery. As a result, the base of the sofa was attached to a small table that serves as a support and also a file cabinet to store old documents and books. Photo: Instagram
More inspirations
How about turning the headboard into a secret hiding place? In this space, you can store a glass of water, books and objects. In other words, everything you need during the night will be at your fingertips. Photo: Pinterest
If you have pets at home, you know that sometimes it is necessary to lock them up somewhere. Whether it’s leaving the apartment door open during the move, or when preparing a special meal. With this in mind, the residents used functional carpentry to integrate a small gate with sliding doors on the side of the kitchen cabinet with the counter. Photo: Pinterest
Additionally, if your job requires you to work from home during an emergency, you need to have an appropriate place to do so. In this way, this living room coffee table has the ability to lift its lid to transform it into a table. Photo: Pinterest
Sometimes, placing a table in a room would greatly reduce circulation space. Therefore, it is possible to invest in functional carpentry and integrate a table into the sideboard. This way, when the furniture is not in use, it can be stored without taking up extra space. Photo: Pinterest
Laundry
The laundry room is one of the smallest rooms in the house. Therefore, it is necessary to make the most of every inch and keep the space as organized as possible to create a feeling of spaciousness. In this case, the ironing table is stored under a plug with a socket. Photo: Pinterest
Bathroom
Just like the laundry room, the bathroom also needs to be very well planned. With this in mind, residents integrated the trash with the office. This idea makes the space more organized and visually pleasing. Photo: Pinterest
Kitchen
The corner of the kitchen cabinet is often wasted due to difficult access. To put an end to this problem, residents opted for functional carpentry that has a kind of tray stuck to the door. Photo: Pinterest
This small kitchen doesn’t have enough space for a dining table. Therefore, the option for this problem was to attach a retraction board to the wall. This way, when it is not in use, it can be lowered and will not take up space. Photo: Pinterest
Conclusion
In conclusion, functional carpentry, despite being a slightly more expensive resource, offers a series of benefits to the environment. For example, the feeling of spaciousness and organization.
Therefore, it is worth investing in modern and sophisticated options that match the style of the house.
