Category: Closet — Melamine Walk-In, More Than 18 Linear Feet
Project: Clients turned a bedroom in this penthouse condo into a large dressing room. It has two entrances, several columns and is a unique shape.
Entrant's Goals: My goal, as always, is to maximize the space, give a functional and accessible design and look good. The space was large and irregular-shaped, with several obstacles. I used two peninsulas to divide the closet and maximize the hanging.
At each end was a shelving unit with ridged glass doors and lights. The design included extra-deep drawers, which provided countertops and a place to charge phones.
