Ever looked at pictures of real-life home interiors and wondered: “Where is all their stuff?” Whatever the size of your home and your family, it’s easy to accumulate things – and run out of places to put them. At Clarendon, we know that smart storage is key to reducing clutter, creating calm and making your home both enjoyable and functional. Every household item should have its place – be it on a shelf, in a cupboard, that special place on the coffee table, or in a basket under the stairs. Moving into your dream Clarendon home provides a valuable opportunity to get storage right, once and for all. A common mistake homeowners make is only planning for the present. But as Sandra Gage, Interior Designer for Campbell Property Group, explains: “Storage needs to be adaptable as the household grows or evolves.” That’s why our homes feature custom joinery and clever layouts that keep things organised without compromising on style. Take the Stamford 37, a spacious two-storey design that’s packed with smart, stylish storage solutions. Here’s a room-by-room guide to making space for living, with thoughtful inclusions that grow with your family and prove storage can be both practical and beautiful.

The kitchen is the all-important engine room of the home, and deserving of special attention. That’s why we customise cabinetry and pantry storage to suit your cooking style and household size. Designs like the Stamford 37 feature a generous walk-in pantry off the kitchen, giving you room to store appliances, bulk groceries, all your baking gear and more. Consider adjustable shelving, pull-out baskets or drawer inserts for added convenience. “Customised storage is essential in high-use areas like the kitchen,” Sandra says. “It ensures everything is accessible, but also neatly tucked away.”

Built-in wardrobes are standard inclusions in Clarendon homes, but they don’t have to be basic. In the Stamford 37, the master suite features a walk-in robe that can be customised with double hanging rails, drawers and shelving to suit your needs. Into shoes and bags? Display them in open shelving and make them a visual focal point. Need extra storage in the kids’ bedrooms as they grow? Think about beds with base drawers, ottomans with lift-up seats, and adjustable shelving that changes with the times.

When clients are ready to work on the interior details of their Clarendon home, it’s time for one-on-one consultations with members of our Lifestyle Studio team. Our expert consultants will help tailor joinery solutions to suit your family’s unique needs – and your home’s interior design. “We ensure finishes, colours and even handles are consistent with the home’s overall aesthetic,” says Sandra. “We aim to strike the perfect balance between function and flair. Never forget that storage can be both practical and beautiful.”
