Your closet can match both the style of decor in your bedroom and your bathroom.
If your bathroom and closet share a space, such as in a master bedroom in which the closet leads directly to the master bathroom, the closet and the bathroom need to coordinate both functionally and aesthetically. Although the closet space in typically one of the more neglected areas of the home in terms of decorating, if the two spaces are attached, they both need equal attention in terms of style. Does this Spark an idea?
Pocket Doors
If your closet serves as the only entry into your master bathroom, basically making it a hallway, you must have the option of privacy, both for the bathroom and the closet at the same time as having an unimpeded walkway. Pocket doors provide the ideal solution as they tuck into the adjoining wall. When you need privacy, close the doors. When you need to move from one part of the master suite to another quickly, slide them into the wall so that it appears as though they are not even there.
Roll-out and Pull-out Storage
An island of storage won't work in a closet connected to a bathroom as it is often something that you must step around--an inconvenient feature when you need to reach the bathroom in the middle of the night. Instead, keep your storage on tacks, such as with drawers or cabinets with pull-out shelves or wheels to make storage more accessible yet also keep it out of the way.
Match the Decor
Since a closet connected to a bathroom has ties to both the bathroom space and the bedroom space, allow yourself to think of the space as an extension of each decor-wise. Bring in the hardware from the bathroom, such as the style or type of metal of the faucet and drawer handles, into the closet, but carpet it like the bedroom or bring in a throw rug. Paint the walls of the closet in the style of either the bedroom or the bathroom, or bring both colors in with matching stripes.
