Downtown Clayton is a vibrant location for businesses, restaurants and shops, and with the addition of many high rises, it’s only natural the interior spaces match the vibe outside. Nancy Spewak and Susie Sheahan of Property Enhancements, LLC, collaborated with Beck/Allen Cabinetry to create custom closets for the master bedroom of this Clayton condominium. 

“Using a custom cabinet line like Crystal gave us the flexibility and capability to realize the homeowner’s vision for unique shoe storage and display,” says Mike Beck, president of Beck/Allen Cabinetry. “Unlike typical shoe shelving with a return at the front to prevent the shoe from sliding forward, we left the shelf completely flat with the exception of a small stop that secures the shoe at the heel. The result—the look of a luxury retail destination, complete with LED-lit shelving activated with the opening of the doors.” 

“The client had the artwork– it is a much loved collected piece that we designed around to include it and highlight it,” says Spewak. 

Electrical outlets are also hidden within the closet, allowing for convenient charging of phones and other small electronics. The same wood finish is carried throughout the room, seamlessly integrating the television surround system and additional storage.
