What She Wanted


After moving into a larger home to fit their growing family, blogger LauRen Merola and husband Dallas were thrilled with the additional square footage, yet found themselves perplexed by an extra room off the master bedroom. With awkward sloped walls and a rectangular shape, they were unsure what to do with it—until they realized they needed more space for LauRen’s wardrobe. Envisioning it as a new master closet, they called on California Closets Charlotte to create a custom design that would optimize the room’s challenging architecture with fully-functional storage.

How we did it


California Closets design consultant Morgan Haynie showed up at LauRen’s home with tape measure in hand, ready to tackle the tricky space. Morgan measured the entire room, assessed the sloped walls, and took stock of a beautiful window—which she knew should become the focal point. Knowing LauRen wanted to maximize hanging space, Morgan also designed shelves with open storage above and hanging rods beneath that hit comfortably beneath the slope. To enhance the window, Morgan framed it with shelving and drawer units to house LauRen’s shoe and purse collection. A window seat offered the perfect finish touch, tying the entire design together while also providing LauRen and Dallas a comfortable spot to enjoy their outdoor view.

I love how she styled the space!

Final Result


LauRen’s clean, crisp, and well-considered system delivers the closet she always dreamed of. Plus, when LauRen saw the transformed room, she was so inspired by warm and inviting space that she decided to turn it into a home office, too. Now, the once perplexing space works double duty as LauRen’s dream closet and dream office—or as LauRen calls it, her “cloffice”.

Morgan did an amazing job ‘getting creative’ to fit our space. After a challenging start, it came to have a personality all of its own, and now our ‘cloffice’ feels like home!
