Elfa helps athlete Thobias Montler bring order to his home
Living an active life calls for balance – not only in daily routines, but at home too. For long jumper Thobias Montler and his partner Lisa Lilja, smart storage solutions quickly became an essential part of planning their new house.
“We wanted a home that wasn’t just beautiful, but practical for everyday life,” says Lisa. “With all the training, travelling and kit, we needed solutions that could grow with us.”
Making the most of every square metre
Elfa’s storage now features in every part of their home – from clever under-stair space to a fully organised garage. The result is a place where order creates room for both performance and rest.
“It really feels like a luxury to have a wardrobe where everything has its place. It saves so much time – and takes away the stress,” says Thobias.
Classic function, modern elegance
Under the stairs and in the walk-in wardrobe, the couple chose Classic by Elfa in white, blending effortlessly into their light and airy interiors. The space beneath the stairs became a practical shoe room for all their trainers and sports shoes.
Even the awkward angles of sloping ceilings were turned into useful storage, and today the walk-in wardrobe neatly holds all their sportswear.
In the garage and storeroom, Garage+ provides a sturdy yet stylish solution – with room for training equipment, tools and garden gear.
“The garage storage has become one of our favourites. Everything has its place, and there’s no more hunting around,” adds Lisa.
A home in balance
For Thobias and Lisa, smart storage has become the foundation of everyday life – creating more space for movement, recovery and peace of mind.
