Update – East Hampton Garage Project – MEH!

Confession: I’m not totally happy with my project.

Is the overall design correct? – Yes

Have I delivered the proper level of craftsmanship and Materials? – No Question

So – What’s Missing?

What’s important to me is that every single project carries a distinct identifiable touch or feeling that is directly associated with me and by extension my company

A feeling of uniqueness
A feeling of freshness and imagination
A creative design

Somewhere in the project. I want you to feel this. And if I don’t’ feel it, you’re not going to feel it

So I’ve seized on a rather prosaic, and minor detail of the project – The Firewood Holder, and decided to pour a little something extra into it.

What’s important is not at this point sales or profit margin.

What’s Important is that I feel happy with the project.

Now this sort of obsession might not be important to the generic marketplace of closet and garage interiors, but the fact is that’s not exactly who I work for.

What about your project?

To those of you with a slight weakness for great design and originality, let’s get together, pool our strength, and make some thing special.

Oh Boy – What’s He Up to Now?

Ready for a New Closet, but Not Sure Where to Start?

Take a peak inside my design process to see how closet design works

First, Learn the Design Brief

Here’s The Design Brief from the client (in this case Dallas Joseph from Dallas Bonds Design in Westhampton)

Weekend Home, year round
Some Drawers for Sox and Underwear
Some Shelves for Sweatshirts and Sweaters
Space for Shoes and Hanging

Next – Measure the Space

In this case the designer faxed me a quick sketch, typically, I come to your home and take measurements myself (this also gives me a feel for the space)

Here is the designer’s sketch – nothing fancy, just the important information:

Formalize the Sketch in Design Software and Begin to Block Out Usable Hanging/Shelving/Drawer Locations

Here’s the blocking diagram – (the proposed units are the blue boxes):

Now for the Fun Part – Visualize the Space in 3d, and Commit your Ideas to Paper with a Pencil Sketch

Here’s my sketch:

Is Your Closet Filled With Frustrate?

It’s 6:15 in the morning, and you’re already being pulled in four directions.

As you’re headed for your bedroom closet, your mind is on your morning sales presentation, and you are mentally reviewing your kids school schedule, and you’re already thinking about the summer camp schedule for your kids and, and, and…you can’t find the shoes that go with this outfit…

Well, I can’t help with everything, but i certainly can help with the shoes.

A well designed custom closet gives you room to breath by having everything in its place, easy to find, and ready to go.

Plus, if it’s really well made, and a joy to look at, it brings a smile to your face

Designing great closets that look fabulous, and just plain work is my specialty.

I’d love to show you how to transform your closet from the dreaded “black hole” to a place of spacious order and beauty.

Feel like giving it a whirl? (my little secret – designing drop-dead gorgeous designer closets is so much fun it really doesn’t feel like work)

Give me a call here in New York at 631-414-2973, and let me show you the way

Yours for a small oasis of peace in your crazy world,

Peter
