If you’re planning to rennovate your home or revamp your closet, you don’t want a design that looks dated. Fortunately, there are some great trends in closets right now that bring both style and function to your design. Here are some of the best closet trends you need to try.
Lots of Light
Gone are the days of dark reach in-closets or glaring single light bulbs. Modern closets have plenty of light. Whether you choose a stylish chandelier, under shelf lights, recessed lighting, or spotlights, you’ll love having a bright, clean closet that allows you to clearly see your wardrobe. Many people also take advantage of available windows or skylights to add natural light to their closets.
Dressing Rooms
Closets that double as dressing rooms are in high demand right now. Get the look by adding a dressing table, benches, and a mirror. While this does require a walk-in closet, you’d be surprised at how easy it is to convert some reach-in closets to a walk-in style. And you’re sure to love the convenience of not having to run back to the closet for another outfit if you don’t like the first one you try on.
Mirrored Doors
Mirrored doors continue to be in style because they are both beautiful and functional. You don’t need to install an extra mirror in your closet if the doors already serve that purpose. Whether you choose to have only the closet door be mirrored or opt for mirrored doors on cabinets within the closet, you’ll have a built-in way to check that you look fabulous before heading out for the day.
Furniture and Technology
If you’re fortunate enough to have a large walk-in closet, you may want to consider making it a multipurpose space. Adding furniture and technology to your closet is a popular choice today. For example, include an elegant chaise lounge for a bit of quiet reading, or opt for a vanity so you can dress and do your makeup in the same place. Some people also choose to add TVs and USB chargers, which will no doubt come in handy when you make your spouse or BFF help you decide between 10 different outfits.
Natural Wood
Natural wood is having a moment, and it’s easy to see why. They bring a timeless sophistication to your closet. So choose a species you love, and let the natural grain shine through. Mohogany, cherry, and oak are all elegant options. Prefer a bright option to pair with your lights? Pine gives a cheerful, bright look to your closet.
Shoe Racks
Incorporating shoe racks into your closet is in vogue. A well-made shoe rack gives you space to display all your favorite pairs of shoes and keeps them in easy reach. Plus, if you have a walk-in closet with a mirror, you’ll be able to see exactly how well your shoes match your outfit. And with all the custom options today, you can even choose to have a shoe rack built that is made to accommodate your size and style of shoes!
Tons of Storage
Custom organization is on trend. With custom closet systems, you make use of every inch of your closet space. Adding cabinets, shelves, and drawers instantly multiplies your available storage. Custom hanging areas are also a popular choice. Since they are made to fit your clothing, you won’t have wasted space. And don’t forget to make use of options like lazy Susans, custom organizers, and behind-the-door storage to give you the personalized utility you need.
