Tucked away on the second floor of her family'sSan Francisco Edwardian, fashion influencerMeredith Peck's cloffice (yes, that's a closet-office hybrid, and yes, I need one) used to be set up for her work as a creative director. But as her following grew over the years, she realized a desk and computer weren't cutting it anymore—it was time to shed that chapter of her career and go full dressing room. The space is compact, so she needed to maximize storage by going vertical toward those gorgeous high ceilings, and every piece of furniture had to be small-scale without sacrificing comfort. From her go-to hangers to her expandable Amazon shoe shelves, Peck is sharing all the details that transformed where she works (and gets ready).

Thanks to Peck's wardrobe and the fresh decor, her cloffice is bursting with color: the walls are painted in Benjamin Moore's warm White Dove, the perfect backdrop for a striped settee and dusty blue armchair fromColey Homeplus a patterned, rose-hued rug from Swedish brandLayeredthat stretches across the room. "When I discovered Coley Home, it all clicked—I loved that I could customize everything, and the chair and settee ended up being the perfect fit," she says. Peck then chose muted drapes that gently filter natural light and play a quieter role instead of stealing the show from her outfits.

An eclectic inspiration board and a vintage portrait make the space feel warm and welcoming not just for her, but the whole family. Her husband Andy and daughter Madi pile in at the end of the day, plus dog Lucy, to giggle and unwind together. Cute, right?

To stay organized, Peck sorts her clothing by season in a loosely color-coded system (because it just makes getting dressed feel more intuitive, you know?). She installedIKEA Elvarlistorage to create a framework around that approach—it's made from sturdy aluminum, has adjustable clothes rails, and can be finished with shoe racks or other units with adjustable feet.

"I wanted something modular and flexible—nothing too permanent in case this room needs to evolve into something else down the line," Peck says. Dresses and longer garments always get hung, while most everything else gets folded. Bags slide right onto the top shelf. Beyond sorting by hue, she puts the pieces she's most excited to wear front and center for easy grabbing. Honestly, genius.

After adding simple,expandable shelves from Amazonto stash more of her shoe collection in the closet's built-ins, Peck made brilliant use of the trim above. "I'd once seen someone hang their shoes from a curtain rod, and since adding a rod to plaster walls wasn't really an option, I tried resting them on the molding instead," she explains. And to her delight? They balance perfectly. "It turned into one of those happy accidents that feels intentional," adds Peck. Love when that happens!

Pro-organizers swear byvelvet hangers, so it's no surprise that Peck is right there with them. Herfavoritescome in a pack of 30, are available in several colors, and are less than $20. "Nothing slips, and because they're so slim you can fit so much more (always a plus)," she says. Take note, people!

What's an epic closet without the clothes? Lately, Peck has been drawn to transitional staples that carry her from one season to the next—like a perfectly weighted blazer fromTailor's Keep; a utility shirt and wrap skirt fromLan Jaenicke; and a pair of parachute pants bySaint Clair Scissors(made from an heirloom tablecloth, how cool is that?). "They all strike that balance of versatility and character that I love," she shares. As for shoes? A pair of vintage black Celine heels that go with everything. "They are the best kind of vintage find—timeless, but with a wink." You could say the same for Peck's interior design style, honestly.
