\A fitted wardrobe is a rejection of convention and generic shapes and sizes and an embrace of your personal needs and creative flair, and our online wardrobe builder tool is designed to help you design the wardrobe of your dreams.
By combining the ease of flatpack furniture with the tailored touches of fitted furniture design, we can offer the best of both worlds: a wardrobe designed around your room, which is also easy to build and saves you money compared to a conventional bespoke wardrobe built in your home.
We value this personal touch so much, and offer a lot of options for additional accessories, designs, colour schemes and finishes, but the beauty of any DIY project is that you have scope to add your own touches to the wardrobe as well.
With that in mind, here are some of the ways you can add extra infusion of your personality into your wardrobe, ranging from the simple and sublime to the truly out there.
We offer a range of colours for our fitted wardrobes, from subtle colours which accentuate the grain of the wood to bolder, more striking shades which suit your taste and the rest of the room’s decor.
However, if you feel confident doing so, there is no reason why you cannot add additional ombre blending, blocking or even stencil patterns to your wardrobe. A fitted wardrobe is a de facto accent wall and often benefits from standing out as much as possible.
Whether you are perfecting a new wardrobe or refreshing an old one, adding colours can lead to very special results. However, it is important to ensure that your surface is properly prepared and primed to ensure the paint sticks the way you want it to.
You do not need to use a stencil or various paints to add more colour to your wardrobe either. There is a wide range of decals or stickers that are hard-wearing yet easy to remove if you want to change and refresh your bedroom aesthetics regularly.
It is astonishing how much difference swapping the handles, pulls, and other hardware on your wardrobes can have on its final look, and we offer a huge range of options to transform a wardrobe from a traditional Queen Anne Style aesthetic to a highly modern bedroom.
You can choose a range of different handles from our wardrobe builder, but we also offer the option to buy extra handles in our accessories store as well, in case you want the option to tweak your wardrobe design later to refresh your interior design style.
Small changes can make a massive change to your wardrobe, and the most cost-effective way to refresh your design and give yourself a personal touch is to change the hardware to suit your personal style.
Given that a fitted wardrobe often takes up an entire wall, another solution to make it feel more personal is to create a collage of different pieces of artwork, photographs, posters, stickers and murals which speak volumes about your personality or hold personal meaning.
If you are going to do this yourself, ensure that you are using appropriate materials to affix your trinkets onto the door carefully, but in a way that does not leave marks or damage to the finish of your wardrobe doors.
Given that mirrors have been used for decades in interior design to make a room look significantly bigger, some have wondered whether it is a good idea to add mirrors to your wardrobe doors.
Depending on the design of the door itself, there is a lot of scope to add mirrors, either taking the form of an almost full-length mirror the entire height of the door, or a set of mirror tiles that maximise the light that comes from a mirror without taking away from the stylish cornice or door designs.
They can work, but the same rules apply to wardrobe door mirrors as they do to any other use of mirrors in interior design; they only add space if they are parallel to a source of natural light, so if your planned location for your fitted wardrobe is on the back wall and slightly shrouded in darkness, you may not get the maximum benefit.
However, mirrors add even more scope for personalisation, and if you do not want to take away from the door design, you can fit them to the inside of your wardrobe to create a secluded vanity.
