Studio Office Space After

Let's start out with the storage room. The 3 categories of what's in here has its place; office supplies, food and serving pieces, and personal items (aspirin, lotion, gum, etc). Muji's bins and drawers keep smaller things neat and within reach, and (of course) labeled to make finding and returning things easy. 

I added a hanging rod and though we hung a few hooks in the entry, those are more for guests. The white shelf unit underneath the rod was originally for the printer but it works better in here for time being. 

I moved the paper towel holder from above the sink to the right, now it's not so in your face. I also installed a shelf just above the marble as I know they'll be getting more dishes and they'll need the extra room.

- removed items that didn't belong in this closet

- reused existing boxes to group things on shelves

- moved utility hooks from right wall to back left corner

- moved all cleaning supplies to tall left front cabinet

- cleared bottom cabinet to get vacuum off floor

- moved light up + over

- hung 2 posters previously collecting dust in a back room

Another closet from the apt with the elfa closet and chinese cabinet.

This client thought we needed to completely re-do this closet with a new shelving system. It was hard to get in with the brooms hanging right as you walked in and stuff all over the floor, plus she could never find anything on the shelves. The shelving system isn't the problem, it's actually great, it's how she's using it....
