Default Preferred size for a walk-in closet?

We're going to be putting a second story over our existing living room,
which will become our master bedroom. The new space will be a perfect
rectangle, 23'x18'. This space is for the bedroom and closet. We're going
to put in a walk-in closet, but are debating how big it needs to be. In
our current bedroom we have a walk-in that's 8'x10', and it's much more
space than we need. We keep suitcases and sports gear in there and it's
nowhere near full.We are both VERY low-maintenance, and DH actually has
more hanging clothing than I do.

I'm planning a closet with a center door, two hanging racks (one down each
side), with some shelving above the racks and floor-to-ceiling
shelves/storage on the far wall across from the door between the racks.

The architect is telling me that a walk-in "should" be "at least" 10'x12'
or we "won't be able to sell the house".


Damn. Around here, 10x12 is considered a kid bedroom.
