Modern & maximized for TV show producer and host Nev Schulman
client: Nev Schulman
location: Brooklyn, NY
design consultant: Kim Van Woesik
What He Wanted
We’ve seen Nev Schulman help other people clean out their figurative closets on the hit MTV show “Catfish.” But when it came to his own literal closet, the TV producer and host (and “Dancing with The Stars” alum) needed some help too.
He turned to California Closets New York City's Kim Van Woesik to transform his Brooklyn walk-in closet into a smartly organized space. Starting with a clean slate thanks to brand new construction, Nev and Kim could collaborate on an optimal design that took every square inch into account.
We went for a clean, modern, and upscale aesthetic.
How we did it
Detail-oriented Nev knew what he wanted, and Kim delivered by working around several challenges presented by access panels and columns/obstructions with a thoughtful and custom design that maximized the entire space. Kim also added lighting to enhance the design and provide greater ease locating items.
There are a thousand ways to design a space, but I wanted to design something that would work for him and his family’s lifestyle. One of my favorite elements are the aluminum-framed mirrored doors, which do double duty as full-length mirrors on one side and shelving for storage behind on the other.
final result
Stylish and smart, this transformed city closet proves that there’s plenty of storage potential in smaller spaces with the right design plan and a little creativity.
