A planning guide by INTHERIOR — for homeowners preparing a closet project.

The Problem

You Have the Inspiration. You Don’t Have the Plan.

You’ve saved the Pinterest boards. You know the look you want. But when it comes to your actual closet, the questions start piling up:

What layout really fits this space? What should you prioritize — more hanging space, more shelves, more drawers? What do you even ask a closet company or contractor before approving a design?

Inspiration can show you what you like. A plan helps you understand what can actually work in your space, for your wardrobe, and within your budget.

That’s where a plan comes in.

A Simple Process to Plan Your Closet the Right Way

The Closet Planning Guide is built around the INTHERIOR 4-Step Closet Planning Method — a clear sequence that takes you from an empty idea to a real plan.

The Closet Planning Guide

Clear Expectations, From the Start

This guide is a planning and decision-making resource. To be transparent, here’s what it does not provide:

 

  • Construction drawings or engineering
  • Code approval or permits
  • Fabrication plans or installation instructions
  • Professionally verified final dimensions
  • Contractor pricing or custom closet design services

Technical requirements and final dimensions should always be confirmed by a qualified professional. This guide helps you prepare for that conversation — not replace it.

Testimonials

Trusted Planning, From a Real Interior Design Company

INTHERIOR has helped real clients plan and design functional spaces. Here’s what they say about working with us — and about this guide.

What I appreciated most was the attention to detail. They helped us think through the space before making decisions, and the final result felt clean, functional, and exactly what we were hoping for.

Belma Schwarz

The guide helped me think through my closet project before spending money. I felt much more prepared, made better decisions, and avoided a few things I probably would have paid for without really needing. It definitely saved me time and money.

Molly Hadida
Miami, FL

Before using the guide, I had lots of ideas but no real direction. It helped me organize what I actually needed, understand which layout options made sense for my space, and know what questions to ask before getting quotes. I felt much more confident moving forward.

Faqs

Common Questions

Pinterest is great for inspiration, but it can’t tell you whether a layout fits your space, your wardrobe, or your budget. This guide helps you turn that inspiration into a real plan.
A closet company can design your space, but you’ll make better decisions — and ask better questions — if you walk in already knowing your measurements, priorities, and budget.
The guide is built for homeowners, not designers. Every step includes clear worksheets and checklists to guide you — no technical background needed.
The Layout Library covers reach-in, walk-in, and special configurations, so you can compare the options that are realistic for your actual space.

Plan Your Closet Before You Approve the Design.

Don’t approve a design or compare quotes until you know exactly what your space, your wardrobe, and your budget actually need.
