Sometimes GQ and Details seem to push things that aren't necessary. This is not one of those times.

Tailor-made suits are great, but I'm not wealthy enough to afford those right now. Tailor-made closets might be expensive, too, but California Closets makes something that really is necessary, functional, everyday. And beautiful.

They offer variety, customization based on your needs, and a sleek, clean look. Minimalists don't need a closet with space for 100 shirts; Space for 20 might do it, or 10. A small stack of my recent reads would be lovely there, too; Mark Doty and Louise Gluck look out of place just left on a side table, and I don't want to dig through the clusterfuck in my bag to find them, either.

It's always nice to find function, style, and space working perfectly together.
