Survey Says…

Recent data from the 2025 Wood Industry Almanac and Future Market Insights shows that while the broader housing market has faced headwinds, the home organization sector is accelerating:

  • Steady Growth: In 2025, the “Home Storage and Organization” market in the U.S. (which includes bins, shelving, and garage storage), was valued at over $15 billion.
  • High Remodeling Demand: Homeowner remodeling spending is expected to hit a record $524 billion by early 2026. Within that spend, closet systems, pantries, and laundry rooms are consistently ranked as top-selling project categories.
  • Remote Work: The rise in home offices has led to a 34% increase in professionals purchasing customizable storage to manage hybrid living/working spaces.

Today’s laundry rooms are designed for efficiency and flow, combining smart storage, organization, and dedicated space for everyday tasks.

 Great Expectations

Customer expectations have changed over the last two decades. Home organization features once considered luxuries are now seen as functional necessities. The laundry room is an excellent example of this change. Once relegated to a dark corner of the home, the laundry area is now viewed as a space that should be designed for efficiency and flow. Closet systems can be designed with hanging rods, and shelving built around the washer and dryer. In addition, they can also be designed to include countertop space for folding laundry.

For collectors, closet space in the bedrooms has evolved into a personalized vault for treasured items. Whether it’s a pair of vintage Jordans or Jimmy Choos, that investment deserves a place of honor in any closet. Shelving with integrated LED lights lets the collector enjoy their item even if they aren’t wearing it. A well thought out lighting plan for the closet isn’t only for collectors. Homeowners appreciate how a well-lit closet makes it easier to get ready—no more worrying about mixing navy blue and black!
