The Benefits of An Open Closet
Form follows function is a revered principle of architecture and various design disciplines. What it basically means is that any sort of beautification made to an object should come after it meets the purpose it was designed for.
For quite a long time, closets were these separate rooms or enclosures for our clothing that we kept locked when not in use. We are human however, and innovation and evolution are basic characteristics we all possess. One way or another, the closet had to undergo this process.
So why would an open closet be of benefit to you?
Space
Whether it is your first house or a change in circumstance, you may find yourself in a house that is not as spacious as you would like in terms of storage. A closet may be absent, but an open closet such as built in wardrobes will provide you with function while improving the aesthetics of your room.
Aesthetics
Everyone appreciates art in their own way and one good method of bringing creativity to your room is an open closet. The vertical lines of hanging clothes, horizontal drawers of various sizes, and positions make this appealing to the eyes. It’s definitely an excellent way to get the creative juices running in the morning.
Time saving
On average, people take between 15 to 30 minutes to get ready every morning. An open closet speeds up access to the clothes you need. If you do add a mirror and tools like hair dryers nearby, this cuts down time further by eliminating the need to walk into different rooms.
If you generally take time choosing what you’re going to wear, having everything on display will make this a lighter burden for you.
Easy to organise
You may not have a lot of stuff to necessitate a full-size walk-in closet, but what you do have still needs organising. An open closet gives you the opportunity to arrange your stuff to match, or affect the overall aesthetic feel of the room.
Easy to clean
Dare I say this is the best advantage? If you’re not a fan of house chores, an open closet is your best friend. Seeing as they do not take up much space, a simple wipe down and vacuum for dust, especially with sliding wardrobes, will cover most of the hygiene needs.
Self-control
If you are an impulse purchaser of clothes and other items, this is one way to help you manage your “condition.” Having everything on display will help guide you towards having only what you need and letting go of what you don’t need.
Once you have the habit under control, your accounts will start to look a lot healthier as you no longer spend money on things that you do not need.
