Finished basement - Wenham

Before and After - Wenham

We sorted through each of the plastic bins that were stacked in this area of the room. The majority of the items were clothing, which was donated. Once space was cleared, the homeowner could set up for entertaining by adding new stools and a pub table. The family is now enjoying their 'found' space!

After the space was cleared, the family was able to purchase a new sofa and TV and install their gaming systems here. The family spends a considerable amount of time enjoying their new space.

Home Office - Billerica

Before and After - Billerica

Home Office - Lowell

This homeowner downsized to an apartment and needed to sort out the basement and garage storage items that were now in his office. We sorted everything and donated, recycled and disposed unwanted items. We reorganized what was left and stored almost everything in the previously underutilized - and spacious - closet.

Teen 'Retreat' - Andover

This family wanted to turn their playroom into a teen hideout, with a study area and tv/video game area. The toys were sorted and either stored, donated, or kept in the room (not shown in this view). A small sofa was also brought into the room. According to the homeowner, 'The kids love to go into their new room now and I love that they have a place that they can retreat to and call their own!'

In this new multi-purpose room, each boy now has his own workstation for homework.

Seating was added so the boys can enjoy the TV and video games. Toys are now neatly stored in decorative boxes on the existing shelving unit.

Entryway Closet - Andover

Pantry Closet - Chelmsford

This closet's deep shelves made it difficult to access the food in the back, which resulted in the homeowner using the floor space in front for easier access, which exacerbated the problem. She often found herself rebuying food she didn't realize she already had. We discussed how she would prefer to use the space, ideas for storage, tips as what should go in a pantry and how to organize it. We then worked out the design of the shelves and calculated the square footage of shelf space needed. After a little research, we realized that an off-the-shelf (no pun intended) solution wouldn't work in the space, and the homeowner used a custom closet installer to execute our plan.

Basement - Andover

This basement got out of hand little by little by not having dedicated 'spots' to put items away.... the homeowners just put things down in the closest spot. We sorted through unwanted items, put small items in plastic drawer units, put larger items in plastic bins, and stacked the bins on a table for easy access. Hanging space was created for seasonal items to clear floor space.
