Top of the Line Closets

Submitted by Ellen Hamm
Mon, 26 Jul 2010

Sometimes you see a closet that just takes your breath away. Working with a top-end closet designer, professional organizer, or interior decorator can help you to realize your dream of owning one of those "wow" closets. Here we will discuss some of the features of these high-end closets that make them so special and breathtaking.

-Countertops are usually present in really extravagant closets. Marble and granite are the most popular countertop materials used in sophisticated closets around the world. The shiny finish helps to reflect light and make the closet look bigger. These countertops can be used for ironing, laying out jewelry and other accessories, making coffee, folding laundry, or putting on make-up, whatever you decide is most useful for you.

-Lighting is very important. Lighting can make or break a closet. If the closet space is big enough, a chandelier can really dress it up. Fluorescents are not very popular. Skylights, soft white bulbs, and track lighting are more pleasing to the eye. Just make sure that your closet has plenty of light and no exposed bulbs that make you squint or pose a fire hazard. Installing a motion sensor so that your closet lights automatically come on when you enter and turn off when you exit is also a good idea. Little details will make your closet more luxurious and easy to use.

-Storage in a luxurious closet is a tricky thing. You don't want to ruin the look and feel of the closet space by having stacks of blankets and cardboard boxes throughout. Canvas boxes with inset labels, baskets, and other decorative or inconspicuous containers are preferable. Uniform, stacking shoe boxes look neat while protecting your shoes. Many things can be hidden inside beautiful cabinetry to protect the organized and high-end feel of your closet. Self-closing drawers and soft close inset hinges keep things looking great all around.

-Useful details, like pull out tie racks, valet rods, pants rods, sweater shelves, and a professional steamer can help you to keep your closet organized. The clothes hangers that you choose can enhance the look of your closet, as well as make it more useful. Hangers will be all over the closet, so decide which ones will look best and don't skimp on quality. Cedar hangers are best for coats and suits, repelling pests and absorbing moisture, protecting your clothes from damage. Metal hangers are sleek and save space. Velvet hangers avoid slippage and can also help you to maximize hanging space while adding a splash of color or elegance. Choose the accessories for your closet carefully and your closet will have that finished look that you're going for.
