When I walked into this room, I felt like an explorer discovering the secret lair of a mythical beast—perhaps one that hoards laundry instead of gold.

By working with the space (and the child’s habits), we can build a system that supports independence and creativity. Getting dressed won’t feel like an obstacle course, and treasured items won’t end up buried under piles of laundry.

It’s normal for wardrobes to get out of control when the space doesn’t match the pace of daily living. This isn’t about blame—it’s about building a setup that works for how you actually use your clothes, not how a magazine thinks you should.
