A closet is used every day, often twice a day, but it is usually the last room to get real design attention. At Foscari Interiors, closets are one of our core services alongside kitchens and bathrooms, and we design them with the same European cabinetry, finishes and planning.
This guide explains what Foscari offers for custom closets in Houston: the types of closets we design, the product lines and finishes available, what goes inside, and how a closet project works from first visit to installation.
Types of Closets We Design
Walk-in closets and dressing rooms
The primary closet is where most of our closet work happens. Layouts are built around the clothing, shoes and accessories the client actually owns, with zones for long and short hanging, folded items, drawers and display. Larger rooms can include a central island, seating, a vanity or mirror wall, and glass-front cabinets.
Reach-in closets
Secondary bedrooms, guest rooms and children’s rooms usually have reach-in closets. A well-planned interior with double hanging, adjustable shelves and drawers can often double the useful storage of a single rod and shelf.
Wardrobes
Where there is no built-in closet, or the existing one is too small, a freestanding or built-in wardrobe wall provides organized storage with finished fronts. Wardrobes are common in townhomes, older Houston homes and rooms converted to bedrooms.
Specialty storage
We also design entry and coat closets, linen closets and storage for hobbies, luggage or collections, often in the same finishes as the main closet.
The Closet Lines Available at Foscari
Foscari works with several manufacturers so each closet can be matched to the home, the style and the budget:
| Line | Made in | Best for | Lead time |
|---|---|---|---|
| KICO Italy | Italy | Wardrobes, walk-ins and bedroom systems; 200+ finishes; pricing from accessible to high-end | 10–18 weeks |
| Johnson | Argentina | Modern closets with strong value; 50+ finishes; multi-unit pricing | 12–16 weeks |
| TM Italia | Italy | Made-to-measure dressing rooms that continue the home’s Italian design | 12–18 weeks |
| Artcraft | Canada | Closets in transitional and traditional styles | Confirmed with proposal |
Each line carries a manufacturer’s warranty, typically five years, and Foscari’s catalogs, including The Closet Collection, Kubia Closet Collection and KICO Italy Night Systems, show the range of styles.
Finishes and Materials
Closets do not have to be white melamine. Across our lines, clients can choose from:
- Wood veneers and wood-look finishes
- Matte and high-gloss lacquers, with custom colors on request
- Textured and fabric-look surfaces
- Glass doors in clear, smoked or bronze tones
- Aluminum frames and profiles
Many clients match the closet to the bathroom or bedroom so the primary suite feels like one design.
What Goes Inside
The interior is where a custom closet earns its keep. Options include:
- Hanging: long, double and pull-down rods for high sections
- Drawers: full-extension, soft-close drawers with dividers for jewelry, watches, ties and accessories
- Shoe storage: angled or flat shelves, often with lighting
- Pull-outs: trouser racks, valet rods, belt and tie racks, laundry hampers
- Lighting: integrated LED lighting in shelves and hanging sections, often motion-activated
- Islands: drawer storage with a countertop for folding and packing
See our accessories and organizers page for more of the interior options.
What Affects the Price of a Custom Closet
Closet pricing depends on the design rather than square footage. The main factors are:
- The cabinet line and finish selected
- Open shelving versus doors and drawer fronts
- The number of drawers and specialty pull-outs
- Glass doors, lighting and islands
- Room size and ceiling height
Because the options vary so widely, Foscari prices each closet from its design. Local delivery in Houston starts at $695 for a single area.
How a Closet Project Works
- Consultation at our Richmond Avenue showroom or in your home. It is complimentary, and we take measurements and talk through what you need to store.
- Design by our in-house team, with plans, elevations and renderings.
- Selections of line, finishes and interior fittings, reviewed with samples.
- Approval and ordering. Closets are made for your project, so orders are final once in production.
- Production, typically 10–18 weeks depending on the line.
- Delivery and installation by Foscari.
For new construction, it helps to start the closet design before drywall, so lighting and outlets can be placed where the design needs them.
