Bespoke closet systems from brands that prove space saving and luxury are not mutually exclusive

Whether you’re seeking a minimalist look or simply want to improve the organization in your home, closet systems are a must when it comes to building neat and tidy interiors. Luckily, today’s designers and furniture manufacturers are fabricating closet systems with style in mind. Say goodbye to clunky wardrobes and space-consuming shelving—here are three of our favourite brands offering sleek and streamlined closet systems.

Okay, but it clearly is

For the first 16 years of my life, the bat cave at the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM)—a reconstruction of an actual cave in Jamaica—was among my favourite places in the city. The cave was decorated with cast stalactites and wax bat models, which hung from the ceiling and threw jagged shadows on the walls. A few other features imbued it with spooky verisimilitude: the drip-drip-drip sound effects, the mirrors arranged to create the illusion of infinite depth, the strobe lights strategically placed to make the shadows flutter. When I visited as a five-year-old, the bat cave scared me. When I visited as a stoned fifteen-year-old, it scared me even more. Then came the renovation.
