What Is Expert Walk In Closet Design?

Walk in closet design is the practice of conceptualizing and constructing a room-within-a-room storage area that you can physically walk into to organize your clothing and accessories. Unlike basic reach-in closets, a walk in layout offers substantially greater room, making room for floor-to-ceiling shelving, dedicated accessory zones, and integrated lighting.

Mechanically speaking, the project involves a full space assessment followed by built-in unit construction that are fitted precisely to your room dimensions. Materials typically include solid wood, MDF, laminate, or a combination, based on what fits your aesthetic and investment. Fixtures, pull-out accessories, and finishing details are incorporated to finish the space.

The result is a fully functional room designed around your specific collection of clothing, accessories, and household items. Walk in closet design doesn't follow a cookie-cutter solution — every build is different based on the client.

Who Is a Great Fit for Walk In Closet Design?

Most people who own a home are good candidates for a custom walk in closet design build. That said, those who benefit most is someone who has a room or space that can be converted a full-access closet — whether that's a spare bedroom to an oversized reach-in that hasn't been properly utilized.

People who share a master suite are among our most enthusiastic clients, since walk in closet design can be planned as a dual-user space. In the same way, people with large wardrobes — including those who have disorganized dressers and stacked boxes — experience the most dramatic improvement from a custom-built walk in closet design.

Some homeowners may need a different approach — for example, if the room cannot spare the footprint. In those instances, our designers may recommend alternative built-in options, such as a full-wall closet build or a modular storage system that that can still offer significant organization benefits.
