Integrating inside the space of a closet, understood as architectural features and not as pieces of stand-alone furniture like armoires or dressers, closet storage is typically fixed in place. Some closets, known as “fitted closets” are built into the walls, taking up no apparent space in a room.

Closet storage has evolved as human needs changed. Ancient homes often used simple chests or armoires to store clothing and valuables. As architecture advanced and homes became more sophisticated, built-in closets began to appear, offering designated space for garments and personal items. The rise of fashion in the 19th and 20th centuries made closet space even more vital. As wardrobes expanded, so did the emphasis on organization, leading to the development of racks, shelves, and drawers specifically tailored for diverse storage needs.

However, as living spaces become smaller, especially in urban areas, designing versatile and space-optimized storage remains a challenge. The focus is on blending aesthetics, functionality, and adaptability for modern lifestyles.
