Dan Higbee, Design Constultant
I like to have fun involving clients in the design process. I always try to design on site, which allows me to get an up-close sense of their lifestyle, be budget conscious, and ultimately design a fully functional custom closet or storage system with style.We have such a great product - I love sharing it and showing people how it is possible to increase square footage in any given space. I love our brand, and our corporate team who is always on the cutting edge of style and technology.
Ray Higginbotham, Design Consultant

At 71 years old, the reason I am still doing this is that my customers are great and they love the results of what we do - so I am still having fun after all these years!I want to make life easier for my customers by using their space effeciently. Space is expensive today, so it is important to get the most out of what you have.
