Abstract:
1. A method for automated custom design of a storage assembly from a remote location connected to the internet comprising: defining a storage location at a remote user terminal, wherein the defining is accomplished by drawing the walls of the storage location on a display on the user terminal, and wherein the drawing provides the length of each wall and the relative angles of each wall to the other walls, thereby creating a definition for the storage location; providing the definition for the storage location to a centralized computer processing and network server system connected to the internet; computing usable space for the storage location based on the definition of the storage location, wherein the usable space satisfies allowance rules based on closet design principles; automatically generating a recommended layout for a storage assembly based on the computed usable space, wherein the storage assembly and includes at least one unit is comprised of one or more components; displaying the recommended layout for the storage assembly on the remote terminal; automatically generating specifications for manufacturing the components of the storage assembly; manufacturing the components of the storage assembly based on the specifications; and shipping the components of the storage assembly to an address provided by the remote user.
