MY ADVICE:

• Remodeling your closet can maximize space and storage while adding an aesthetic to your home.

• Utilizing vertical space in your closet will add considerable space for storing your clothes.

• If you own many pairs of shoes, flat shoe shelves utilize space more efficiently and are cost effective as well.

MY FAQ’s:

 “How do you first approach a space? In other words, what’s the first thing you think about when you first see a client’s closet space/storage problem?”

When first approaching a space I consider how much storage I will be able to fit in the area and what is needed. Before entering the space I also ask the client how they want to utilize the space, such as needed drawer storage, hanging, shelving, and shoe storage. This is essential to customize a closet for the available space.

 “What is the biggest design obstacle you’ve overcome? i.e. awkwardly angled walls, electrical sockets in bizarre places, big collections in small spaces.”

Measuring in the dark at a new construction site without electrical installation! I was able to secure my cell phone with flashlight onto my belt and measure the entire area.

 “Since collaboration is such an integral part of the design process, how do you like to engage or connect with clients in order to help them realize their vision for a space?”

I utilize the Closet Factory brochure and Digital Presentation to engage my clients. This interactive material gives them ideas to help visualize their own space organization.

 “How are you inspired by a home’s existing décor? Is there anything specific that you look for during an in-home consultation?”

When designing for a client, I look at existing cabinets and hardware on existing furniture and cabinets. Depending on the room in the house and where it is located in the floor plan, I also look for any design details in that area that will complement our materials.

 “What are some ways a custom designed home office can improve productivity? In other words, how does the right type of home office help people do business?”

Custom designed home offices can improve productivity through organizing a space where everything is in one space or area. Drawers for files, shelves for storage and plenty of workspace can optimize productivity and create a beautiful, welcoming working environment.

 “What are some modern organizational trends, or what’s a trend you’re looking for?”

A trend I see time and time again is combining older styles and architectural details with modern details. With Closet Factory this can be done using an updated melamine look alongside a space with older architectural details anywhere in the home. There are many styles and selections of melamine or wood that will accent architectural details.
