dream closets

                       
This couple's closet, although wide, did not hold very much with its standard one bar and one shelf and bi-fold doors that always come off the track.  They wanted to utilize the height of their 9-foot ceilings within the closet.   Even if we had put shelves higher in the closet, the couple would not have been able to access them because the closet was shallow and the standard height door would get in the way.  We looked around and saw a huge, but almost empty, master bedroom, so we suggested removing the closet altogether and framing a small footprint walk-in closet 8' wide by 5' deep.  This allowed us to use the full vertical space (9 feet) and to get more hanging and shelf space into this corner of the room, by only stealing 3 feet from the room -- a pocket door that retracted into the new wall kept us from needing any more space from the bedroom.  In fact, with the closet organizer, there was 3x as much hanging and shelf space!  To top off a complete success, the new walls blended into the old walls seemlessly, as if the walk-in closet had always been there.
