Why choose a fitted wardrobe?
Freestanding furniture has to work in many different rooms. A fitted wardrobe is planned for one room: yours. It can use the height and width of the available wall, work around an awkward corner and give every part of the storage a clear purpose.
That matters in London homes, where bedrooms are not always square and every usable centimetre counts. The design can balance hanging space, shelves and drawers around what you own, rather than asking you to adapt to a standard interior.
The result should feel like part of the room. Door style, colour, finish and handles can be chosen with the surrounding furniture and flooring in mind.
Choose the wardrobe style that suits your room
Hinged wardrobes
Hinged doors open fully, giving you a clear view of the whole interior. They can work in traditional or contemporary bedrooms, depending on the door profile, finish and handles you choose.
They are often a good fit where there is enough space in front of the wardrobe for the doors to open comfortably and where easy access to the full interior matters most.
Sliding wardrobes
Sliding doors move across the face of the wardrobe rather than opening into the room. That can make them useful where floor space is tight or where a cleaner, uninterrupted run of doors suits the design.
The right choice is not only about appearance. We will help you compare access, room layout and storage needs before deciding whether sliding or hinged doors make more sense.
Walk-in and bespoke wardrobes
Where the room allows, a walk-in wardrobe or dressing area can bring hanging, shelving and drawers into one organised space. A bespoke design can also respond to alcoves, chimney breasts, sloping ceilings or other awkward features.
The starting point is how you live: what you hang, what you fold, what you want within reach and what you prefer to keep out of sight.
Plan the storage around how you live
Good storage begins inside the wardrobe. Before choosing a finish, think about the clothes and items the design needs to hold.
- How much full-height hanging space do you need?
- Would two shorter hanging levels work better?
- Which items need drawers, shelves or open display space?
- What should be easy to reach every day?
- Which pieces need a quieter, protected place?
How the design process works
The process starts with a conversation about the room, the storage problem and the look you want. We then develop a fitted-wardrobe design around the space and the agreed specification.
