Aire Drive- Primary Closet
Primary closet with custom design.
Closet space was expanded by 15 sf during bathroom renovation and built-ins from Ikea’s Pax and Billy systems were incorporated to provide the focal areas for the closet. Color was elegantly integrated into the otherwise-all-white closet by using beige cabinets and dark gray rods for the two wardrobe sections, and textured, blue, grass cloth, peel & stick wallpaper for the interior back panel of the Billy bookcase. Built-in shelving and rods offer plenty of additional storage along the length of the closet. Glass front drawers and plenty of pull out trays offer beautiful, functional storage for jewelry and accessories below the glass vanity counter. Supplementing the recessed lights, two gold, star-shaped flush mount lights echo the gold fixtures and star shapes from the connecting bathroom. Continuous LVP flooring unifies the closet, bathroom, and bedroom. Two wall outlets are in the closet: one low outlet on the wall for general use, or ironing; the second outlet, which incorporates three fast-charging USB ports in addition to the standard plug-style outlets, is located behind the artwork at the vanity counter in the central wardrobe section, which was planned as a convenient charging place for devices.
