Built-In Drop Zones = Morning Time Magic
Say goodbye to backpack pileups and misplaced permission slips! We create custom built-in drop zones near entryways and mudrooms that feature:
- Individual cubbies for each child
- Hooks for jackets & backpacks
- Shoe storage drawers
- Charging stations for tablets and phones
- Message boards for daily reminders
A streamlined drop zone keeps the chaos out of the kitchen and the morning routine running like clockwork
Homework Headquarters That Inspire Learning
We design custom homework nooks that make studying more inviting—without taking over your kitchen table. Our solutions include:
- Built-in desks with task lighting
- Floating shelves for books and supplies
- Corkboards or whiteboards for notes and reminders
- File drawers for easy access to schoolwork and handouts
Whether it's a designated study area in a loft or a tucked-away spot near the kitchen, we help design a space that helps kids focus—and gives parents peace of mind.
Closet Systems That Grow with Your Kids
Our custom closets are designed with adaptability in mind—because kids grow fast, and so do their clothing and storage needs!
- Adjustable shelving for clothes and sports gear
- Pull-out bins for socks, toys, and seasonal accessories
- Slide-out hampers and laundry organizers
- Shoe racks and display space for growing collections
A well-planned closet cuts down on clutter and makes getting dressed in the morning a breeze!
Kitchen Command Centers for Busy Families
Our clients LOVE incorporating command centers into custom kitchen designs—especially at the start of the school year!
- Designated space for incoming/outgoing mail
- Weekly calendars and menu planning areas
- Charging stations and key hooks
- Cabinet drawers with school lunch zones or snack organizers
Stay on top of school forms, extracurriculars, and meal prep—all from one centralized location.
Creative Toy & Craft Storage
Back to school doesn’t mean the fun stops! We design custom built-ins and cabinets in family rooms, playrooms, and bonus spaces to organize:
- Art supplies
- Board games
- Toys and legos
- Backstock school supplies
Stylish closed storage keeps your home looking neat while still being kid-friendly and accessible.
