I have worked at Closet Factory since 2006, though my love for organization began much earlier. As a child growing up in a large family and small home, I would organize my mother’s pantry as my way to contribute to the functioning of the household. Finding myself in a healthcare marketing job early on, I left to pursue my passion for organization and design.
I take great pleasure in designing a space that is not only functional, but naturally fits in with my client’s aesthetic, though personally I love a space with mirrors and glass accents.
I’ve been awarded Houzz’s coveted ‘Best of Design’ and ‘Best of Service’ in 2016 and 2017, and just broke $7 million in career sales!
“We should have done this a long time ago! We LOVE our master bedroom closet! Sue did an excellent job on the design, solving all our storage needs, increasing our storage space, as well as staying within our budget. My personal favorite are the shelves for all my shoes! Everything is neat and organized. Our experience with Closet Factory was excellent from start to finish and I have already recommended to my friends!”
– Lisa
“I can’t begin to tell you how much we are enjoying our new closet! Both of us are quite delighted with how it turned out. We have so much more space – even extra space that we aren’t using right now. It is indeed a pleasure to put our clothes away in our new closet – what a difference!! Thank you for your help, you were a pleasure to work with. I will certainly recommend Closet Factory and Sue Pike.”
– Susie
“The new mudroom is absolutely perfect. Sue’s design and assistance with spacing and sizing was right on. We could not be more satisfied! I think it has become our new favorite place in the house. It is amazing how such a small space was transformed and the quality of the work is beautiful! Thanks!”
– Meghan and Travis
“How do you first approach a space? In other words, what’s the first thing you think about when you first see a client’s closet space/storage problem?”
I approach each space individually. With the customer, we will together craft a solution for them that is truly based on what their vision of the space needs to be as well as look like. The first thing that I think about is how it can work the best for all the things that has been discussed. That is always the most important to me and the goal of each project.
“What is the biggest design obstacle you’ve overcome? i.e. awkwardly angled walls, electrical sockets in bizarre places, big collections in small spaces.”
One of the biggest obstacles that I had to design around was a garage soffit, and and hvac return and make both a beautiful part of the closet.
“Since collaboration is such an integral part of the design process, how do you like to engage or connect with clients in order to help them realize their vision for a space?”
I feel collaboration is of utmost importance and why all of my consultations are completely interactive. We design the space together with the great information each of us share. The depth of my portfolio, real life experiences, and my 3D software always lead to great ideas and complete vision of the end product.
“What are some ways a custom designed home office can improve productivity? In other words, how does the right type of home office help people do business?”
My own home office with Closet Factory built-ins is a complete testimony as to how we create high functioning home offices. There is no better way to communicate the effectiveness of your product than to be an end user yourself! Being on the road most days and in between using a home office full time, having that space ready to go and operated at maximum efficiency is the only way I could manage the million dollars of business I do each year. And that is why each of my homes have had numerous closets/offices/rooms/garages designed by me and installed by Closet Factory! I love my organization and it shows!
“What are some modern organizational trends, or what’s a trend you’re looking for?”
The newest trend that I have been seeing for the past few years is really just the importance of maximizing storage while minimizing clutter. New homes and new interior decorating is all about the fresh, clean, and uncluttered landscape. How this is good for the mind, body, and soul. This has been a real driving force for us as, and that, is really what Closet Factory is, and has been, all about!
Each of our custom systems is completely personalized and begins with a complimentary design appointment.
