Into The Closet!

Into The Closet!

ORGANIZED INTERIORS

No matter how much time and care go into residential design, one element of the home always seems in short supply. Closet Space! Kitchens are designed to surpass the perfect dreams of a gourmet chef. Baths have become absolutely spectacular. Bedrooms have become masterful creations. Splendid formal living and dining rooms, carefree family rooms, and now entertaining great rooms and even efficient laundry areas are seen as a must. But Closets? Who wants to think about storage space? The answer is nobody…until there isn’t enough to house half the family’s stash of clothes, shoes and other “valuables” that are shelved.

If the truth were known, most designers and architects concentrate on making the “people space” perfect and regard closet storage space as a necessary evil that will receive whatever is left over.

Our needs for closet space have dramatically changed over the years as fashion has imprinted our lives. Previous generations had far less variety in apparel…basically one type of clothes for work and “good” clothes. Consequently, older homes, no matter how big overall, devoted little room to closet space.

Then, we became enamoured with clothes that had colour, style and different look for every imaginable function. Our wardrobes expanded so our clothes screamed for relief.

Enter a new phenomenon…the Walk-in Closet, a phrase that some how or other denoted bigger. But chances are, bigger meant much more room for you in the closet and a bit more room for clothes and storage. That may be fine, depending on how much time you send in the closet.

Then, housing costs rose and prices increased dramatically to the point where large rambling floor space was neither practical nor efficient. As well, in the later seventies, a trend grew toward rejuvenation and renovation in central urban areas where homes were dramatically smaller. In these homes, small existing closets had to be dealt with in an innovative way, in order to provide the closet storage capability that the modern family requires.

The answer to smaller closets and larger wardrobes was more efficient organization and use of the space. The Closet Shop and McDoors, storage space specialists and closet pioneers in the

Toronto market, evolved Closet Organizers as attractive, very practical solutions to this serious problem. Double hanging space made storage of shirts, blouses, and pants more efficient. Extra shelves and even drawers and so many organizers that make much more efficient use of the available space. Keeping space for everything…for shoes, ties, belts, jewellery, laundry, robes, hats, and more then keeping…everything in its place. In fact, closet organizer systems can more than double the usable storage capacity of most closets, depending on the design and walk-in closets are no exception.

We all now know that you’ll never have enough closet space in a home. During the last 10 years, many Custom Home Owners, and Builders have realized this and have changed the Walk-in Closet to a size that is becoming known as the Closet Room or The Dressing Room. Closet organizers have become a standard feature just like the kitchen. Renovators are taking a spare bedroom and making it into a full functional Closet. Homeowners are looking to closet specialists in how they can utilize the wasted space available around the dresser mirror. Many are doing away with the dresser and putting in custom made wardrobes to store more hanging clothes and even locating a TV at a proper height for their bedroom viewing.

Undoubtedly, storage space will remain a priority for today’s family. Efficient space utilization is the best answer to getting more of what every home or condo seems to be without…enough closet space.

With this storage and organization trend happening both inside the closet and in the bedroom, the need for personal organization has spread to all areas of the home, including the family room with elaborate entertainment centres and to making Home Offices functional and computer centres a studying place for the kids.

McDoors & Closets and The Closet Shop, both, have been a trusted name in the design community and industry since the 70’s. They have built a reputation for fine work and on-time professional service and design consultation. These two companies were combined to focus on their specialty and the growth of the built-in cabinetry outside of the kitchen and bath.

Hence, the evolution of ORGANIZED INTERIORS,

The newest and most elaborate Closet Organizer system is ORGANIZED INTERIORS’ Exclusive Fitted Furniture. This system can be used both in the closet and in the bedroom. Available in many finishes including rich, warm mahogany, or light and easy antique white. It turns a bedroom or a closet into a masterpiece of good looks and space efficiency. Like other ORGANIZED INTERIOR Systems, Exclusive Fitted Furniture is custom-designed and manufactured to fit the room precisely…and the needs of the homeowner, precisely.

The most efficient closet of all is ORGANIZED INTERIORS Create-A-Closet. This involves building closets where none exist - no mess, no framing, and no drywall to sand or paint. This concept is perfect when the goal is to have 100% accessible, usable storage space along one wall in the bedroom with closet organizers and…floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall doors, regardless of opening size. The obvious benefit is the entire closet is used for storage space, and not people space. The less obvious benefits include considerable savings in construction time, material and cost. The process is neat, fast and easy. Many people also love the addition of elegant mirror doors for brightness, mood, and the reflection and impression of a much larger room.

ORGANIZED INTERIORS’ Spare Bedroom Concept transforms that spare room into something special…3 multi-function and storage applications in one room. It’s a wall bed, home office, and wardrobe system. This allows you to use that area for work and storing additional clothes and also offer it to overnight guests when you need it. While most people know what wall beds are, not enough of us incorporate them into our homes. But, Maybe, it’s time to try this practical and interesting “stow away” concept. Essentially, wall beds recline into a wall-unit. This ensures that the bed no longer robs a room of its space, which is great for small areas of infrequently used guestrooms! ORGANIZED INTERIORS Wall Beds are convenient too, providing a simple “finger lift” mechanism and utilize all regular mattress sizes so you can have the same comfort that you and your guests want and expect for a good nights rest. There are wide variety of choices, finishes, and designs, as well a 10 year warranty that combines with the specialized craftsmanship. They have become known as the leader in manufacturing the best Wall Bed Systems you can possibly buy.

Often, the best solution to décor problems is to install a built-in system or storage unit. Custom Cabinetry, Fitted Furniture or Built-Ins are the industry term. Built-ins are designed to fit your personal lifestyle needs and application and are made to fit precisely to maximize storage space for any room in the house.

Built-Ins are popular for Wardrobes, Closets, Storage Nooks and Bedroom Furniture, Home Offices, Wall Units and Home Entertainment Centres. Besides real wood and laminates that are the traditional materials used for Built-Ins, designers prefer using engineered woods like MDF for painted look or special faux finishes and treatments or even in it’s natural finish it looks great for a more contemporary environment. These units give character to the room, from classical to the very modern, and lighting adds a mood when it’s integrated into the design. The options are endless and ORGANIZED INTERIORS specializes in Built-Ins.

If the choices available in conventional retail stores don’t intrigue you, consider Home Entertainment Centres and Wall Units offered by ORGANIZED INTERIORS.
