During the decoration process, customizing all the cabinets in the entire house is a major project and also the area where the most money is spent. It directly affects the appearance level and usage experience of the decoration. Therefore, everyone attaches great importance to it and invests a lot of money in full-house customization. However, when making wardrobes, do we hesitate for a long time and struggle to make a decision? Well, that's how I feel. When customizing wardrobes, it's very difficult to make a good choice based on the house layout, personalized storage needs, and color matching. Later, considering factors such as storage requirements, house layout, and floor lighting, we kept thinking and learning from references, and gradually gained some insights. Today, I'd like to share with you the 5 ways of customizing wardrobes that I have pondered. First of all, let me explain that my house adopts the first method.
1、Build a side wall wardrobe along the wall at the entrance.
The side-wall wardrobe is a common type of wardrobe for small and medium-sized bedrooms. It is installed along one side of the bedroom wall. If there is no need for a side-mounted ceiling fan, it is made as a full-height wardrobe, which can maximize the storage space and also avoid dust accumulation on the top and the dark corners at the bottom. If there is a need for a side-mounted ceiling fan due to central air conditioning, the height should be level with the side-mounted fan, but the depth must be 3-4 centimeters less than that of the side-mounted fan, leaving a margin. This gives it a refined appearance and avoids being too clumsy.
2、Build an L-shaped wardrobe along the corner of the wall.
This approach is suitable for rooms where the horizontal space at the entrance is limited but there is sufficient depth. We can create L-shaped wardrobes on the walls at the corners on both sides of the bedroom. The corner areas can be designed as beveled or open storage compartments, converting the awkward corners into practical storage areas, thereby increasing the space utilization rate.
To further optimize the viewing effect and functionality, we can also integrate the L-shaped wardrobes with bedside tables, desks, dressing tables, etc., through a unified design and production. This not only avoids the heavy and oppressive feeling of the overall cabinet but also enhances the convenience of life. It is an effective room layout method.
3、Build a closet at the end of the bed along the wall opposite the door.
The end-against-bedward wardrobe is also a very common way of building wardrobes, suitable for rectangular bedrooms.
We can build a row of wardrobes along the wall at the end of the bed to make full use of the spacious space at the end of the bed. By using wardrobes, we can optimize the layout of the bedroom space and avoid the situation where the space on both sides of the bed is narrow after building the wardrobe against the side wall, making it inconvenient for daily activities.
4、Build a partitioned wardrobe in the middle of the bedroom.
This approach is not very common because usually our bedrooms are not very spacious. However, it is very suitable for large rooms. We create a partitioned wardrobe in the middle of the bedroom, using the wardrobe to replace the physical wall, effectively dividing the large room space into multiple functional areas without making the bedroom too empty and causing a sense of exhaustion when sleeping. For example, the entrance of the bedroom is made into a cloakroom, makeup room and study area, and the partitioned area is the rest area. However, there is also a drawback to this approach. After dividing the room functions with the wardrobe, there will always be one side with poor lighting. This requires considering the lighting design inside the partitioned wardrobe and each functional area. For example, using glass doors for the partitioned wardrobe, adding linear lights inside to increase the transparency of the space; adding hidden line lights on the side of the makeup and study area to enhance the atmosphere, and installing pendant lights or shaped lights on the top to increase the light intensity, etc.
5、Build a bedside wardrobe against the wall.
This approach is often applicable to small-sized rooms, children's rooms, etc.
We effectively combined the bedroom wardrobe with the bedside background wall. We made a concave wardrobe along the bedside, and the bedside was embedded in the concave area of the wardrobe. However, to avoid a messy appearance at the bedside area, this place is not suitable for using a bed with a backrest. It can be designed as a wardrobe + tatami style, which is also convenient for storing and accessing the cabinets in the area below the bedside.
