01 / WARDROBE

Layouts and door movement

Start with the room plan. Mark the bed, doorway and circulation before deciding how much wall to use and how the wardrobe will open.

Hinged wardrobes

Hinged doors can open individual bays fully. Check the swing against the bed, bedside table and room door.

White shaker wardrobe
Flush walnut wardrobe
Sage painted wardrobe
Oak and cane wardrobe

Sliding wardrobes

Sliding panels keep the floor in front clear of a door swing. Consider which bays you want to reach together, since the panels overlap.

Mirrored sliding panels
Fluted oak sliding panels
Smoked glass sliding panels

Reach-in, corner and walk-in layouts

A straight run keeps everything on one wall. A corner, U-shaped or galley layout can add storage if you have room to reach the drawers and rails.

Compare the look of the closed front with the storage you can reach when the doors are open.

02 / WARDROBE

Internal modules and organisers

List what you hang, fold and store seasonally. Use that mix to divide the wardrobe into everyday storage, occasional storage and space for getting dressed.

Hanging, shelves and drawers

Reserve full-height hanging for longer clothes. Double rails work for shorter items, while shelves and drawers make folded clothing easier to group.

Storage for the rest of your routine

Think about where shoes, luggage and laundry go, and whether you want a mirror inside the wardrobe or on the dressing wall.

Pull-outs and drawer inserts

Choose accessories around what you use often. Check that each pull-out clears the doors and that you can reach it comfortably.

03 / WARDROBE

Door styles, finishes and handles

A wardrobe occupies a large part of the room. Decide how much grain, colour and texture you want to see, then compare the finish beside the bed and walls.

Opaque doors

A framed shaker panel adds shadow lines, while a flush door keeps the elevation simple. Compare the sheen of lacquer with matte laminate and visible veneer grain.

Taupe lacquer
Oak veneer
Sage matte laminate

Textured and glazed panels

Cane and linen add texture. Fluted and tinted glass let you see some of what is inside, especially with internal lighting.

Linen inset
Fluted glass
Bronze tinted glass

Handles and pulls

Try the grip and reach as well as the look. A bar or knob can stand out against the door, while a recessed or edge pull keeps the front visually quieter.

PLANNING YOUR ROOM

Bring a few favourites

Bring a room plan or photos, a list of what needs hanging or folding, and a few finishes you like. We can use them to discuss the door movement, internal bays, lighting and storage you need.
