walk in closet design
Comments (5)Is this closet for one person, or will there be people sharing the closet? Do you want drawers in the closet, or just hanging space and shelves? How many linear feet of short hanging (shirts/pants/skirts/jackets/suits), medium hanging (dresses), and long hanging (gowns) do you have of each and how many do you think you will need in the future? Do you want the flexibility to change the level of the hanging space? The shelves?...See MoreMaster Suite Design - Built-in wardrobe vs Walk-in closet
Comments (42)I totally agree with cpartist. You are really limiting yourself by staying in the footprint you made for yourself. Considering the investment you will make in the addition, I would want to do everything I could to make this room and possibly the laundry room/office work. I would also think about landscaping. Maybe your bedroom doesnt look to the patio because you move it to the back of the house, but you have succulents and cacti planted in front of the bedroom windows for a beautiful view. I'd start over with a fresh piece of paper and think about every option. I say this because I am doing a master suite addition to my house. I put a lot of thought into what I wanted. The people on this board also really helped me and I hired an architect. We came up with a great plan and will be starting this week on the project....See MoreBedrooom Narrow Walk in Closet 45" W X 50" D X 102" H - Need help
Comments (15)Ok... I just checked and measured etc... I can triple hang on the back wall there is enough room... no long dress but shirts, sweaters etc... Starting from 1 inch from the ceiling and using a pull-down bar as per latifolia's suggestion... and next one down moves back about 5 inches and adjust the height... I can then put shelves or I am thinking the third rod right below it. Now then the front rod can be removed or adjusted and can see what I can do next... I can get rid of that large canvas holdall and use baskets on my side of the wall... I can go as wide as 10 inches..... and either put a half rod in front I really don't want to double hang in the front....See MorePlease help me with Walk In Closets design.....
Comments (20)Thanks for some of the lovely options posted. The home is already built. So this is the space :) No worries there is lots of windows in the home including master bedroom and bathroom. This is above garage, hence the length. The 6.8" would not be less than 6.5", I shall measure tomorrow and update. Separate storage allocated for shoe closet, personal preference to have shoes setup separate & inside the home shoes are different than outside :). Luggage is probably the only storage planned for basement, more so now than before sadly. Storage needs - Purses, jewelry, cloths all kinds - daily home and work, yoga, tennis, dressy & party etc. I like kayozzy and bpath idea, at the entry to the left have a purse/jewelry narrow closet. Just like kayozzy said, at the bump out there is dressing area planned with sconces ( there is a vanity area in the master bath). Then there is that 8ish feet long deeper section with a window across, how best to use this space - 1) Should this be the dressing table area because of the depth and the window across for natural light... 2) Maybe a deeper under cabinets with counter. if possible some kind of pull out island... Then have upper cabinets come to the counter. 3) Maybe pantry like tall pull outs, I like this but this means it will all be closed. I want to be able to see everything, out of sight out of mind :) Having said this given the narrowness of the space, is it ok to have glass door ( maybe a few mirror doors) or have no doors... Is closed storage a cleaner look... I do like the idea of kayozzy for the 30' long wall to have of lengths of storage closets. I also like bluemarble idea of mirrors and velvet curtains at the windows. Should there be seating with storage at the windows? About material is generally used for closet, wood, UV or some kind of Acrylic (plywood and MDF), anyone has any thoughts on these materials please chime in, would appreciate it. No worries Mark, bring it on, that is the idea to hear all of it......See MoreLouise Smith
