“Thank you so much for all of your help with our design. Your creative ideas helped us design a closet we will love! We really enjoyed working with you and can't wait for you to come back and see the finished space! :) thanks again!” – Karen F, Indianapolis, IN | “To work with Susan Martin-Gibbons, is to know the true meaning of expertise and service. As a creative problem-solver, she met my all challenges with the spirit of working out a puzzle, which has made every part of the process not only painless, but fun. Her genuine enthusiasm for my closet project made me feel that it was as important to her as it was to me, which I found reassuring. Susan tirelessly communicated with me every step of the way, guiding my decisions in such a way that they were perfect for my needs. I am so fortunate to have had the experience of working with her.” – Cathleen H, Terre Haute, IN | “One of the best qualities about working with Susan was her intuitive approach. We had a design in mind that we had our hearts set on and then we met Susan. She was able to make even better suggestions to make our cabinet, more aesthetically pleasing, more functional and most importantly "Under Budget". Everything we asked her to do she did and really fought for us on pricing to stay within our budget. I felt like I could have my cake and eat it too...Trust me, we threw some major curve balls but Susan answered the call each time. Not to mention her prompt follow up in getting back with us on everything. Susan has been a dream to work with!” – Kassi H, Indianapolis, IN | “I can’t begin to express how pleased I am with my “California Closets” experience. From beginning to end, Susan worked to always meet my needs. Most of my clothes were in storage, so Susan was unable to physically see my wardrobe prior to design creation. I completed a detailed list of the items I had in storage, and Susan was able to design based on my wardrobe list. I was really impressed with the initial closet design, and also how she made great use of my closet space. We altered the design slightly to give more hanging space, and I anxiously awaited install. The installer was personable, efficient, and very thorough. Initially my husband had concerns about the necessity and cost of a new closet. Once the closet was installed, he was beyond pleased. We’ve already began to think of future projects for California closets. Susan far exceeded my expectations. She was certainly professional, and I found working with her to be both effortless and enjoyable. Once we begin our future projects, I wouldn’t even think of working with anyone else.” – Neicey L, Indianapolis, IN | "Susan did an excellent job coming up with a design to fix the problems we had with the design of our existing closet built-ins. The installation was very quick and the quality of the built-ins meets our expectations." - Erin & Rich, P, Fishers, IN |
Serving
Indianapolis and surrounding areas
Our lives are so incredibly busy! Constant connection through one’s email, Facebook, texts, phone, fax, etc. can be draining and have one longing for serenity and organization. Creating a home that offers a refuge…a moment in time where one can be “quiet”, having a space that is simplistic, organized, functional, yet beautiful is what Susan creates with you. Every space should “speak” of your personality and fulfill your needs of today …yet keeping in mind what tomorrow might bring.
Susan comes to California Closets with a vast sales, marketing, and management background that, until recently, has been focused in the optical industry. She was president of “The Buying Group LLC” which addressed the needs of both the wholesale and retail sector of the optical industry nationwide. Prior to “The Buying Group”, Susan worked for an optical manufacturer where she served on the President’s Advisory Council and exponentially grew her assigned markets. Although Susan continues to participate in the optical industry, she has changed her focus to pursue her passion – design – specifically spatial design for California Closets! She received her Interior Design degree in 2004 and is a member of ASID. She joined California Closets in September 2010 and loves every minute of it!
