A Closet that's "Top Dog" When it Comes to Storage and Amenities

Closet design by Tim Higbee of Closet Works: This closet is definitely Top Dog when it comes to storage and amenities within a small space. The design includes hanging areas for his and her clothing with numerous pull-outs for organizing belts, scarves, ties, pant racks and a valet pole. Shelving on "his" side of the closet organizes a large sweater collection, while a hutch unit on "her" side with reeded glass doors provides ample storage for handbags and small accessories. The reeded glass on the upper cabinet keeps items visible, but offers a less cluttered look by screening contents. The shoe spinner shoe organizer holds between 85 and 200 pairs of shoes on a rotating base, ensuring that footwear is always easy to find. A small closet island occupies the center of the walk-in, dividing the space into "his" and "hers" sides, while providing a favorite perch for the family dog to effectively survey his realm and keep an eye on all comings and goings. photo - Cathy Rabeler
