In wall cabinet for extra Shoe storage

Need inspiration for what to do to create more storage? Why not get creative and look behind your existing walls. Yes I know you don't x-ray vision and neither do we, but we do know about construction. Let us find all those hidden storage spaces to store your stuff.

Inspiration:
An art niche/display area on the top and below extra space made to store your stuff. ENJOY
First Break open to find out whats inside. Yup that white line is a Live electrical wire. Safety first that's why you call us in.
Moved the wire and the plug to the bottom right corner, there was 2 studs in the middle cut those out. Voila the beginning of more storage.
Built this custom shelf to fit the space.
(Tip: Found out it would be cheaper to buy something bigger then cut it down to the right size.)
The Final product with doors made out of a simple MDF board and cut to size. Trim on the sides to blend everything in.
Doors swing open thanks to Blum 170º hinges and 5 shelves.
Thanks to the 170º hinges the pull out shelves make the shoes easier to access.
