When it comes to maximising space and style in your home, a bespoke fitted wardrobe can make all the difference. Unlike off-the-shelf options, a custom solution will allow you to tailor every aspect of your wardrobe to fit your needs and the specific dimensions of the space.

There are a number of factors to consider for your bespoke wardrobes which will ensure your finished product is both functional and beautiful. In this blog, we’ll explore the essential elements to keep in mind when you start designing your bespoke wardrobes, helping you to create a personalised storage solution that enhances your routine and reflects your individual style.

Assess your space

Before you start creating your bespoke fitted wardrobes, you should start by assessing the space you have available. It may be that you already have an idea of where you would like your wardrobe to be, such as an area in your bedroom where you currently have a freestanding wardrobe. Consider whether you have enough room for doors to open, or if sliding wardrobes may be more appropriate.

If you work with Kingswood, we’ll take exact measurements of where you want your fitted wardrobe, accommodating for any architectural features such as sloped ceilings, alcoves, or windows which could impact your design. We’ll ensure a seamless fit, no matter the height, depth, and width of the room.

Choose the right style

The style of your bespoke fitted wardrobes should harmonise with the overall aesthetic of your home, but particularly for the room where it will be situated. Whether you want a sleek and modern design, a classic traditional look, or something more eclectic, choosing the right style is key to creating a cohesive interior.

Consider the colours, materials, and finishes that could suit your space. If you already have a contemporary feel, opt for clean lines and a minimalist finish. If you prefer a traditional look, lean towards rich woods and ornate detailing. Ultimately, the style should reflect your personal taste while also complementing the existing décor.

Maximise storage efficiency with customised options

When designing your wardrobe, maximising storage should be paramount. One of the benefits of bespoke fitted storage is that it will allow you to utilise every inch of space available with solutions that are tailored to your needs. This could feature adjustable shelves, deep drawers, and dedicated storage for specific accessories.

Think about the kinds of storage solutions you might want to incorporate. Consider the items you need to store and how often you access them. For example, if you have a large shoe collection, you could include a pull-out shoe rack to keep your shoes organised and easily accessible. If you frequently wear more formal clothes, you might want to add extra hanging space for suits or dresses.

Consider lighting

Lighting can play an important role in the functionality and aesthetics of your fitted wardrobe. The right lighting will ensure you can easily find what you need, especially in rooms that have less natural light and in the darker corners of your wardrobe.

You could consider adding LED strip lights along the inside of your wardrobe or using spotlights to illuminate specific sections. You could also consider sensor-activated lights that turn on when your doors open to add a touch of luxury and convenience.

Choose your finishing touches

The finishing touches of your bespoke wardrobe will significantly affect the overall look, as well as its functionality. From handles and door knobs to built-in window seats and headboards for your bed, at Kingswood, we have everything you need to create a polished and cohesive bedroom. We can also incorporate interior finishes such as soft-close mechanisms to enhance the overall quality of your wardrobe.

When choosing your finishing touches, think about the overall interior style of the space. Metallic finishes such as silver handles work beautifully in more modern interiors, whereas wooden handles give a more classic finish. Also, think about your combinations – a navy blue wardrobe will look striking with gold or brass accents.
