Kids Closets
Children are not always known for being the neatest or tidiest household members.
First, they’re still learning the skills they’ll use later for keeping their own homes clean, and second, many of the products they have in their closets might not be designed for kids.
Smart Spaces can design, build, and install adjustable "kids closets" in your child’s bedroom, using the same process we use with the other closets in your home!
Once your kids closets are set up to be easy to use, you’ll be able to work with your child as he or she learns valuable organizational skills.
Kids Closets that Grow with Your Child
One of the best features of our kids closets is their adjustability!
Building a closet now for your toddler will allow for many years’ worth of use, as the configuration can be changed as your child approaches their teen years. Think about a closet investment - both beautiful and functional - that keeps on giving.
After you have an empty nest, you’ll be able to use the space for your own belongings, or, if you decide to sell the house, a custom closet in your child’s bedroom can raise the value of your home. It’s a long-term, win-win situation for everyone!

What are the Design Styles of Kids Closets
When it comes to designing kids closets, several styles cater to both functionality and aesthetics, ensuring that the space is not only practical but also appealing to children. Here are some popular design styles:
- Colorful and Playful: Many kids' closets feature bright colors and playful designs that reflect a child's personality. Accent colors can be incorporated through shelving, bins, and decor, creating an inviting and fun atmosphere that encourages kids to engage with their space.
- Functional and Organized: A focus on organization is key in kids' closets. This style often includes a mix of cubbies, small drawers, and adjustable shelving that allows for easy access to clothes and toys. The design emphasizes keeping items neatly stored and easily reachable, which helps children learn to maintain their space.
- Themed Designs: Some closets are designed around specific themes that resonate with a child's interests, such as sports, animals, or favorite characters. This thematic approach can make the closet feel more personal and exciting, encouraging kids to take pride in their space.
- Adaptable and Flexible: As children grow, their needs change. Custom closets that can adapt from toddler to teen are increasingly popular. These designs often include adjustable shelving and modular components that can be reconfigured as the child’s storage needs evolve.
- Open and Accessible: Open closet designs allow for quick access to clothing and accessories, making it easier for kids to choose their outfits independently. This style often incorporates hanging rods and open shelving, promoting a sense of autonomy in children.
- Minimalist and Clean: For parents who prefer a more streamlined look, minimalist designs focus on simplicity and functionality. These closets often use neutral colors and clean lines, creating a calm environment that reduces visual clutter.
- Creative Storage Solutions: Innovative storage options, such as under-bed drawers or hanging organizers, are often integrated into kids' closets. These solutions maximize space and provide additional areas for storing toys, books, and seasonal clothing.
- Interactive Elements: Some designs incorporate interactive features, such as magnetic boards or chalkboard surfaces, allowing kids to personalize their space and engage creatively with their closets.
- Dual-Purpose Spaces: In smaller homes, kids' closets may be designed to serve multiple functions, such as a play area or study nook. This dual-purpose approach maximizes the utility of the space while keeping it organized.
- Eco-Friendly Designs: Increasingly, parents are opting for sustainable materials and eco-friendly designs in their kids' closets. This style not only promotes environmental responsibility but also ensures that the materials used are safe for children.
Kids closets can range from colorful and playful to minimalist and functional, each catering to the unique needs and preferences of children and their families. These styles not only enhance organization but also create a space that children can enjoy and take ownership of as they grow.
