The Heart of Home Organization

More Space Place’s Transformative Touch

When it comes to creating functional and beautiful living spaces in Manatee, Sarasota, and Charlotte counties, More Space Place, owned by Tracy Young, goes above and beyond. As a locally female-owned franchise, it delivers personalized designs that elevate homes into uniquely organized sanctuaries. This year, Tracy shared her insider tips and trends, offering a closer look at the art of closet design and organization.

Practical Hacks for Everyday Organization

For Tracy, the magic of a well-organized closet begins with thoughtful additions:

  • Built-in Hampers: “These are wonderful for keeping dirty laundry and dry cleaning out of sight,” Tracy notes. More Space Place offers various sizes and styles to fit any space.
  • Closet Drawers: Ideal for everything from undergarments to collectibles, they add versatility and tidiness.
  • Uniform Hangers: “You’d be surprised at how much having all the same hangers can make your closet look like a million bucks,” she adds.

Seasonal Storage Made Simple

Storing off-season clothing can be tricky, but Tracy suggests easy solutions:

  • Fold items into storage bins for placement on the top shelf or beneath the closet system.
  • Use vacuum-sealed bags to save space.
  • Maximize empty suitcases as additional storage spots for seasonal wear.

A Spotlight on Special Items

When clients have specific items like shoes or accessories, Tracy’s team gets creative:

  • Lighting and glass shelving showcase treasures in style.
  • The rotating shoe tower is a showstopper, perfect for shoe lovers.
  • Custom-sized shelving ensures every item has its place.

Walk-In Versus Reach-In: Designing for Every Space

A well-organized closet isn’t one-size-fits-all. Walk-in closets allow for luxurious features such as:

  • Islands with built-in jewelry trays and drawers.
  • Bench seats for added comfort and functionality.
  • Mirrors to create a complete dressing area.

For reach-in closets, Tracy emphasizes maximizing vertical space with smart shelving and accessories.
