I expanded my design portfolio to include commercial storage solutions, showcasing what I can offer beyond residential custom closet projects. With permission from the company that handles my professional installations, I am able to present examples of custom shelving solutions and retail storage systems featured in a pharmacy and a vitamin shop.
