Picking the Right Layout, Finish, and More
A well-designed closet is more than just storage space. The right closet system can actually make your life easier—if you incorporate the right elements for your lifestyle, taste, and routine. Below, we offer some professional advice for selecting the ideal cabinet style for your new custom closet.
Elements to Consider
A custom closet storage solution is ideal for anyone looking to spruce up this essential space with high-quality cabinets, and all of the design details are up to you. Some of the features you’ll need to consider when selecting your cabinet style include:
- Color: Will you add a pop of bright color to a windowless space or stick to a more neutral palette?
- Finish: Should your cabinets have a glossy shine, or will you keep it contemporary with a flat finish?
- Hardware: What metal or material appeals to you most for knobs, pulls, hinges, and other hardware?
- Layout: What type of cabinet configuration works best with your routine and integrates well with the dimensions of your closet space?
You’ll also want to weigh the pros and cons of different types of closet solutions, such as floor-standing versus wall-mounted systems; dynamic elements, such as adjustable shelving; and designated storage areas for specialty items.
Keep in mind that when it comes to custom closet storage, “cabinets” don’t just refer to boxes and doors—you also need to consider the placement of drawers, racks, rods, and accessories. Browse various types of closets and organization systems to determine which elements will best meet your storage and lifestyle needs.
Choosing a Cabinet Style
Once you have a general idea of what your new closet system will look like, you can pin down the specifics of your cabinets’ appearance. Will the design details match the rest of your home, or will you give the interior a bold new look? Keep it consistent, or mix and match styles? Experiment with color combinations as well as textures and finishes that speak to you.
