6 Vinyl Storage Ideas That Show Off Your Record Collection to Its Very Best

Interior design is headed for all-out retro revival, and that means your vinyl collection is cool again (although the record enthusiasts don't need me to tell them that). However, anyone who owns vinyl knows that the thin, square sleeves are clunkier than you'd imagine. They are deceptively heavy and require a certain level of vigilance in order to take proper care.

But fear not, finding the best vinyl storage idea for your space is both rewarding and an excuse to flex your interior design eye. As you begin, Robert McMillan, interior designer at a San Francisco-based interior design studio, Aubrey Maxwell, says, "one of the most important components of vinyl storage is understanding how you want to interact with your vinyl library. Do you prefer to engage with them from the front face of the albums, or organized with the spines facing out?" Knowing how to organize vinyl records will help determine the type of vinyl record storage system you go for and how it will work into the design of your space.
