Drawers in Stairs
I'm way behind on my blog reading and only just found this thanks to House in progress ... putting drawers in each tread of the stair, what a fantastic idea.
I thought that was such a clever idea when I first saw it. I then got to thinking that it is a recipe for a broken neck. If someone leaves a drawer out, and you come downstairs in poor light or half a sleep, you’re toast.
Good point... I wonder if there's such a thing as self-closing drawers? eg, perhaps you could have them on a light spring so that they only stay open with a little pressure. Hmmm...
