How to Design the Perfect Fitted Wardrobe for Your Lifestyle

Choosing a fitted wardrobe isn’t just about the door style and the finish or colour, it’s about creating storage within your home that genuinely improves how you function day to day. A well thought out fitted wardrobe should be tailored around your routine, making getting ready feel effortless, all whilst being beautifully integrated into your room. At My Fitted Bedroom, our first question is always: how do you use your space?

Start With Understanding the Belongings You Need to Store

Before designing fitted wardrobes, it’s important to think about what’s actually going to go in it! Do you own a lot of long dresses? Are you a bookworm with a collection of books to house? Perhaps it’s bedding or suitcases that need storage space? Are shoes your biggest challenge? Ultimately, a bespoke fitted wardrobe can be customised with things like:

• Full length hanging space;
• Double hanging rails;
• Deep, soft close drawers;
• Shoe storage trays or systems;
• Adjustable shelving;
• Accessory compartments.

When your fitted wardrobe interior reflects your lifestyle and your belongings, organisation at home will become super easy!

Consider Your Room Layout

We know that every room is different; sloping ceilings, alcoves and chimney breasts are all features that should influence the decisions around your bespoke fitted wardrobe design. Made to measure fitted wardrobes are built specifically around these architectural features, ensuring no space is wasted and that these elements are fully considered. For smaller rooms in particular, sliding fitted wardrobes can be a key design choice, since they prevent any issues relating to needing floor space to open the doors. Whereas in larger spaces, hinged wardrobe doors or even walk in wardrobes are possible.

Choose a Style That Compliments Your Home

A fitted wardrobe should really feel like part of your room and not an afterthought. Whether your home is contemporary, traditional or something in between, the style, colour and finish can be specifically tailored to suit. Popular options include minimalist handleless designs, classic shaker-style fitted wardrobes and more. Unlike freestanding furniture, fitted wardrobes are a long term investment, so choosing a quality design will ensure your bespoke fitted wardrobe remains visually appealing for the years to come.
