New Survey from California Closets Reveals Americans Seek Space, Comfort and Organization

San Rafael, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A recent survey conducted by California Closets, the pioneer in spatial design solutions, reveals that a lack of space and organization in the home is a source of stress for 60 percent of Americans. In addition to strain resulting from disorganized home environments, external factors are also causing Americans anxiety. In the downturn economy and slowing housing market, many Americans are trying to identify ways to increase the value of their homes and make changes that customize their existing space to make it more conducive to their current lifestyle needs.

Home Organization Reduces Stress

A growing number of Americans are identifying clutter in their homes as a source of anxiety, with over a third of survey respondents admitting their home is so disorganized that it prevents them from getting anything done. In addition to revealing how a lack of home organization causes stress, the survey also found that 85 percent of Americans experience positive benefits as a result of a well-organized home. In fact, six in ten respondents agree that an organized living space makes them feel more calm, efficient and in control.
