# Creating folders in a bucket

Impossible Cloud Storage generally stores objects in a flat structure. However, you may create a **virtual structure** yourself by simulating a directory. For this purpose, you can use our 'create a folder' feature. 

Simply navigate to 'buckets' and the particular bucket or sub-folder within a bucket. Afterward, click on 'Create Folder' and define a name. Note that you cannot upload a folder to our console and only create it inside the bucket.

{% hint style="info" %}
In contrast to naming a bucket, you may name your folder as it is most meaningful for you. Only the names '.' and '..' are not allowed.
