Art of Drawers — a DFW custom storage solutions business — alleviates stress and frustration with its custom pull-out drawers, which are tailored to an individual's reach. The designers transformed a kitchen that had become unusable for a homeowner recovering from spinal fusion surgery in her lower back and upper neck. The custom pull-out drawers allow her to resume cooking after bending and kneeling to access deep cabinets had become impossible.
Art of Drawers' approach to accessibility replaces outdated shelving in pantries, kitchens, and bathrooms with fully extendable drawers that bring contents into clear view and easy reach. The company's approach addresses the hidden frustrations that many homeowners accept as normal, such as deep cabinets, under-sink spaces, and hard-to-reach corners.
