Home Enrichment

A custom bar and a beautiful pantry are just as essential to the haute home as California Closets’ famous closet spaces. Both can now be created via “virtual design” consultations, or as in the case of the pantry, created for self-installation by way of the newly introduced The Everyday System.

Imagine coming home at the end of a long day to a well-appointed wine bar that offers the best of both worlds — room to store your collection as well counterspace for aerating, pouring and serving guests. The designers at California Closets utilize their wide selection of shelves and cabinets to artistically accommodate the existing space. You can make the area even more glamorous with the addition of lighting to add ambience and functionality. Similarly, an attractive and well-organized pantry enhances life at home. 

What’s more, pantry organization requires specialized storage that ensures easy access to items that are used daily. Whether you want a wall pantry or you have space for a full pantry room, you’ll want sliding storage shelves and pull-out baskets as well as drawers that offer concealed storage for cooking utensils and grab-and-go snacks. If you add built-in wine racks with stemware and integrated counters to create a convenient space for food prep — you’ll be using your pantry more than your actual kitchen!

Additionally, in keeping with the times, California Closets now offers “virtual” design consultations. Through the use of technology (whether it’s FaceTime, Zoom, or even a phone call), they can connect to discuss your organizational needs, take preliminary measurements and send you customized solutions that you can view in 3D. It’s the same personalized and professional California Closets design experience you’ve come to expect. 

Yet another option is the newly introduced The Everyday System — developed in collaboration with Martha Stewart. Order a California Closets DIY pantry online for self-install or get it customized by a designer and professionally installed by California Closets; CaliforniaClosets.com/Miami.
