GO GREEN, SAVE GREEN!

Many people say that going green with interior finishes such as custom closets and garages typically costs more money than less eco-friendly alternatives. Not true at all! Eco-nize are actually typically 10-15% less than other 'not as eco-friendly' options. With the use of a 100% recycled core and a No Urea Formaldehyde Added product Econize are leading the green closet revolution. We do not see why the general public should have too pay much more for going eco. Going green has never been easier on the pocket.

To see a wonderful eco-friendly project in the metro DC area go too www.charityworksgreenhouse.com. Greenspur, the general contractor, under the guidance of owner / operator Mr. Mark Turner has really designed a wonderful sustainable house. It is currently open to the public and you can buy tickets online also.

Please support this fantastic charity also and help educate you are your family on some of the wonderful sustainable option available to the general consumer at the current time!

CHARITY WORKS GREEN SHOW HOUSE

One of the coolest green project to date is having an Open House in McLean. Econize Closets installed the Pantry, Garage and Master Closet system in this house. There were 18 interiors designers who worked on the project and WOW, did the make a great job? The house is fantastic. Go to www.CHARITYWORKSGREENHOUSE.com for all the information and remember that you only have a couple of weeks to check out the house. The Show House has a state of the art geothermal system. The Green house shows how efficient building design, innovative technology and a smart location can be combined to reduce or eliminate carbon emissions. The Charity Works Green House continues with 18 exquisitely designed spaces filled with luxurious eco-friendly furnishings, fabrics and finishes.

This super green project ends with 100% of the net proceeds giving families and children in our community a better chance at a sustainable future.

CLOSET DESIGN

When designing a closet there are a couple of steps that one must take in the design process. It is best first to survey all of the clothes and 'stuff' that will go into the new closet. Sometimes it is wishful thinking what you can get in but we always tell our clients that the closet can certainly be maximized but it is not a magic lamp that will expand the closet in size :-)

We typically start by inserting a nice drawer system in a central location and working a way out. Aesthetics are central to the design and then functionality follows closely behind. After all it is always a person's dream to have a nice walk in or reach in closet. The addition of some glass doors above a closet hutch unit is always nice and some crown molding to finish it off nicely. We finished a beautiful closet with these design parameters in a Fairfax Station Home a few weeks ago and the client was ecstatic. The flow and symmetry of the closet is also important which automatically invokes a calmness which we could all do with about off in this day and age. To Eco-nize your closet is supposed to be a relaxing experience. Let's have some fun!

A CUSTOM LAUNDRY UNIT FOR LIFE

Many Laundry Room are  some simple cabinets and typically not well enough organized for your daily laundry tasks. Econize Closets have the solutions for you. You can add in some hanging for those items which need a quick run in the washer / dryer. If you are single and do not have a large family this is also a good idea. You can also add a simple fold-out ironing board accessory to give it that more custom look and there is no need to be messing around with those large awkward ironing boards. Why not add some Econize Closets custom baskets in multiple finish option and styles. Whatever the solution Econize Closets has you covered. Muptiple color options, door styles, finish options, solid wood or our Ecocloset(tm) brand. We promise to Optimize and make your Laundry area a fun place to be and to change the task of doing Laundry into a more pleasureable experience.

A NEW ECO-NIZE DESIGN IN YOUR PANTRY CLOSET CAN MAKE ALL THE DIFFERANCE

We recently designed a new Pantry system for a new client and they were very surprised with the options from a design perspective that they were able to get. New options includes wonderful pull out wicker baskets on slides, custom made wine racks, custom drawers and also an area to hang their glasses from the stem. The client previously had 18" deep shelves but they complained that it was difficult to see what was at the back of their pantry. This resulted in buying to much food at the store as the client was not sure what they had. We modified their pantry and changed it to a 96" high system and they were over the moon. We extended the height of the pantry giving more space and the depth also allowed more breathing room in the pantry itself. 

The client was very happy with the final Pantry Design.

Do you have a Pantry you would like us to take a look at?

It is a Free No Hassle Design Consultation!

Thanks for dropping by.

IS YOUR LIFE GETTING CRAZIER BY THE DAY!

Hi,

Question of the day. Is it just me or is my work life getting crazier and crazier. I want to go back to a simple life style with simple things. That is the main reason why Econize Closets was set up as I believe that we need to make our daily lives more and more efficient so that we can get more time for our children and family lives. Does this make sense or am I in a world of my own on this one?

My second reason to start a closet design company was to educate consumers on the green nature of our products. Why would a consumer not want to use our products? They are wonderfully functional, beautiful, can be used in any application (garage, pantry, laundry, mudroom, walk-in closet, reach-in closet, media center) and most of all they are priced lower than other not so green products. It is a win-win situation for our clients.

I love listening to our clients when we complete a wardrobe that has been a mess for such a long time. It is not unusual to get a call from a client a few months after they have received new custom closets just raving about how much it has changed their lives for the better.
