Their size makes them only second to the bed as the most important piece of furniture in a bedroom. But where do you start? The answer is: the practical stuff. You can do the glam shopping bit later. So, what are you looking for?
Freestanding Or Fitted?
Freestanding wardrobes are designed to fit in an average alcove, but always check measurements first. They will give a room a far more relaxed, individual style, while fitted wardrobes will make a room look more streamlined and formal - but of course give you lots more storage space. What you choose will very much depend on what your room's style is - and, crucially, its shape. For example, in a room with sloping ceiling or no obvious place for a freestanding wardrobe, fitted may be your only choice. Fitted will also give you more storage space because they use every inch of space. If you have to have fitted but don't want them to overwhelm the room, choose reflective, mirrored or white-painted doors to help them bounce light around the room.
