Marco Makeover: A Working Closet

Marco Closets customer Katie Starks, a lifestyle blogger, recently contacted us about creating her dream closet. Katie is popular on Instagram, shooting photos and recording her videos in her “Cloffice” or Closet Office.

Katie needed attractive storage space for her shoes and clothes. Adjustable hanging space and slanted shoe storage were high on the list of requirements. She also needed a space large enough to be able to record video in relative quiet. When the idea of a custom closet first came up, Katie and her husband Luther thought there was no way that the project would be affordable or practical, especially given their family’s busy lifestyle.

However, owner Mike Herman brought his design ideas. He made the process better than expected, in both features and in price. Many of the closet components were assembled in the Marco Closets shop, streamlining the installation process.

The room Katie chose for her new closet was formerly a nursery for her children. Marco Closets maximized the storage space. It was customized it to reflect Katie’s needs. Drawers with acrylic fronts were added so that Katie’s product collections could be displayed.

“To say this is a dream come true is the understatement of the century,” Katie said.

One of Katie’s favorite things is the shoe storage. “This shoe shelf is absolutely the thing that girls dream of.” Adjustable shelves and versatility of storage spaces also come to the top on Katie’s list.

Marco Closets’ sister company, Marco Shutters, also installed a custom plantation shutter, painted white to match the other woodwork in the closet. Katie needed light control to produce good video.
