The [Net Zero Energy Modern House](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pocket-passiv) is designed with storage in mind. Have you ever moved into a nice house only to find that within a year it becomes cluttered and messy? This house by Klopf Architecture was designed just for you.

The walls are lined with shelves. There is so much space to organize, place things away neatly and keep the walls and floors tidy. Cleaning up couldn't be easier. The shelves are designed in a very simple way so the walls are not overbearing and distracting. In the main living space, the slanted ceiling has black detailing that gives the room a modern and sophisticated atmosphere.

Aside from the shelving, the home contains a [beautiful wooden staircase](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silver-house), stand-in, glass door bathroom and large windows throughout the house to let natural light in. The home is unique and creative, and it is a [great place for families](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haus-am-lagnesberg).
