Things to consider while designing your custom-fitted wardrobe
The cost of installing a badly planned bespoke closet is the same as installing a well-designed closet. In the real estate market, great closets are viewed as an asset. But having a closet that precisely suits your needs is more important than mere resale value.
When designing a closet, keep in mind that it will house some of your most important things. Learn more about these crucial elements before you begin working on your custom-fitted wardrobe.
Know how a wardrobe affects your space
The size and arrangement of your room should be the first thing you consider before looking at wardrobe choices. To make the most of your living space, you should choose a wardrobe that complements your home’s current design. To create the illusion of a larger space in your bedroom, you may choose to place mirrored doors on your wardrobe. The reflection will enlarge your space and create the impression that it is larger.
Trending wardrobe colors and styles
An arrangement that is receptive to the style and colors of your current or prospective interior décor will be created by your design team. In addition to the fact that your selected paint color and finishing touches will effortlessly blend into your house, producing the ideal designer bedroom, opting for a bespoke and hand-painted designer wardrobe has other advantages.
A complete wardrobe overhaul or just an aesthetic update
You can also choose to replace your hinged wardrobe doors with sliding ones (or vice versa). To save money, you may replace your wardrobe doors instead of buying a whole new wardrobe, which would be more expensive. It’s important to remember that all of these design selections are heavily influenced by how you want your wardrobe to appear from the outside.
Saving space in a closets
This goes beyond simply creating two different sections of a closet. Generally, men’s shirts are longer than women’s shirts; therefore, the stands should be hung accordingly. One spouse may like to hang their slacks straight, while the other may prefer to fold theirs. Storage space requirements for each of these objects are varied in terms of size and kind.
Your closet’s ergonomics matter as well
With a well-designed closet, you’ll be able to find anything you need quickly. Ideally, open shelves should be set at waist level so that you can easily view everything you own. Underneath the table, you may install drawers.
Drawers with higher drawers for socks, underwear, and accessories are preferable to drawers with lower drawers. Because your clothing, jewelry, and accessories will have no place to go, you won’t have to reorganize your closet because you’ll never have to reorganize.
Limit the number of draws
For little goods such as jewelry, underwear, and socks, everyone needs some drawers. For larger items like sweaters and T-shirts, however, shelves are the way to go. There are two advantages: shelves take up less room than drawers, and you can see what you have more easily, giving your closet a retail-like appearance.
Shoe storage incorporated into the design
A woman’s average shoe collection is 40 pairs, whereas a man’s typical shoe collection is 10. Thus, there should be plenty of space for shoes in this design and even room to expand further. Shoes should be placed heel to toe on a level shelf to maximize space.
Premium features
Organizing your closet isn’t limited to clothing. Depending on your preferences, you may add an endless number of additional features. When it comes to packing, think of bespoke LED lights, valet poles that pull out, a refrigerator to store perishable cosmetics, and an espresso maker to get you going in the morning. The possibilities are endless, and it’s all your decision as to what you want.
Take-away
The importance of a well-designed closet should not be underestimated, whether you’re remodeling an old bedroom or moving into a new house. Your wardrobe arrangement is an investment item that you should not skimp on, especially when it comes to the layout, inside, and quality of the piece.
A common advantage is that if you spend more than once on a designer wardrobe, you’ll only have to buy it only that one time. If you get everything perfect the first time, your custom-made wardrobe will last a lifetime.
