Two-car garage reclaimed in Folsom

The car is back in the garage, there's a clear path through it, and the tools they actually use are easy to find.

Property type: Single-family home, two-car garage

The challenge

Boxes, tools and seasonal things had taken over the garage to the point where the storage system was unusable and one of the cars no longer fit inside.

What we did

Together with the owners — every keep-or-toss decision was theirs — everything was sorted into four piles: keep, move into the house, donate, discard. What stayed was arranged into clear zones: the things they reach for weekly close at hand, the seasonal items up on the high shelves.

The result

The car is back in the garage, there's a clear path through it, and the tools they actually use are easy to find.
