Abstract

We investigated how closets, which are considered to play a key role in establishing storage styles, are currently being used in homes.The ownership ratio of closets is 83%, which is an extremely high percentage. Most closets have an area smaller than a four-tatami-mat room, with the majority being located in bedrooms. When there is only one closet, it is used for various purposes such as storing seasonal goods, less frequently used non-daily goods, expendable supplies and clothing. Closets that accommodate household goods and those that store both household goods and non-daily goods are especially popular. In homes with two closets, they are generally used in one of two ways: one in which both are used for storing non-daily goods, the other in which non-daily goods are stored in one and household goods are stored in the other.The key to whether closets can be properly managed as storing systems largely depends on whether they are suitably located according to the type of goods to be stored in them, their location in the home and regular management of the goods stored in them.
