6 Secrets To Creating The Perfect Custom Wardrobes<\/a><\/span><\/strong>
\nWyndham design director and founder Richard Thomas explains what to consider when creating your dream wardrobe space.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

1 Styling And Colour<\/strong><\/p>\n

Although white may be considered by some as bland and unimaginative it dose make the perfect blank canvas for setting of the main feature of the wardrobe.<\/p>\n

\u201cthe clothes\u201d In fact not only will it set of the clothes it will also create the illusion of space in a room where space is often limited.<\/p>\n

If you use this in combination with mirror then you are really opening things up.<\/p>\n

If on the other hand you have the luxury of a larger space then dark woods or dark lacquer colours can inject mood and accents to the room, and coupled with cleaver lighting can also produce beautiful results.<\/p>\n

2 Use Your Space<\/strong><\/p>\n

The most common error comes with trying to get too much into a defined space.<\/p>\n

Less can be more and in the case of a walk in wardrobes it is often best to have a corridor run of wardrobes rather than return sections that may give dead spaces to the corners.<\/p>\n

3 Doors<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you have wardrobes running in parallel right and left of you its important to consider the room required to open them fully on both sides.<\/p>\n

If the corridor has a limited width then a sliding door option is often a more useful application.<\/p>\n

Of course doors can be removed completely in a walk in wardrobe situation, but consider this can be high maintenance in terms of keeping things visually clean on the eye.<\/p>\n

4 Accessories<\/strong><\/p>\n

Shoes, belts and jewellery can be set and displayed in a variety of ways Including bespoke shoe racks, drawers, or shelving. Consider these items as signature display items using particular shoes and jewellery as pieces of \u2018art\u2019 in there own right.<\/p>\n

Look at ways to enhance presentation using bespoke drawer linings, custom made compartments and light panels.<\/p>\n

5 Lighting And Ambience<\/strong><\/p>\n

The key to creating the overall mood of any walk in wardrobe or fitted wardrobe is lighting.<\/p>\n

Consider ways to implement mood lighting on the interior as well as the exterior and use the same level of coloured lighting be it warm or cool white to maintain a consistency with the overall ambience.<\/p>\n

6 Detailing<\/strong><\/p>\n

Think of you wardrobe as a blank canvas and like any great paining don\u2019t overwork it, Small accents such as handles and application of mirror can be often all you need to create your masterpiece.<\/p>\n

Remember to many materials and textures will start to conflict and as general rule simplicity is king. At Wyndham we try to keep it simple with only 2 to 3 different materials and finishes to produce a stunning design.<\/p>\n
