Master Bedroom Closet

The ratio for a normal bedroom closet to a bedroom is from 0.35 to 0.6. Of course if it is a European house or if you live in a big city it may be less. The closet should be as square as possible. The idea of getting a closet in the out of square or wasted space is not worth the time that will later be lost using the awkward bedroom closet. Master Bedroom closet should have space to dress and undress, unless you use butlers or maids. It should have good lighting. It is better if master bedroom closets and bathes are interconnected, either directly or through a connecting hall. Do not waste too much space on the connecting hall, because its only purpose is to facilitate use of bedroom closet and bath separately. Hers and his master bedroom closet can be separated rooms or in one room but different sides. Choose rod height according to your height. Do not think much about extra space high in the bedroom closet, it is not a place for storing things because it will always be an eye sour and you cannot use a ladder in your daily routine of changing clothes. Design of closets is continuation of your home style, you can be modern with new colors and glass and you can be traditional with wood and moldings. Check your clothes inventory and choose different types of closets accordingly. If you have a lot of dresses, you need more long hanging. If not add double hanging. If you have a lot of shoes that you use, add short hanging with bottom shelves for shoes. Remember master bedroom closet is not for storage, do not try to put shoes that you do not wear in it, or try to have all your clothes warm and cool together all year long. Put unnecessary closets in some other place and change it two times a year, it will halve your wasted time in the closet.
