Even while having a walk-in closet offers numerous advantages, not everyone has the room to install one. If this applies to you as well, you might think about combining your wardrobe with a walk-in closet or turning a bedroom into one.
Let's look at how to do this and what elements must be taken into account:
How can you determine whether converting a bedroom into a walk-in closet is the best course of action for you?
One of the smartest decisions you'll ever make is to convert an extra bedroom in your home into a walk-in wardrobe if you frequently run out of storage space and don't use it much.
What to consider when converting your bedroom into a walk-in wardrobe?
Covering the windows:
Many of us like transparent curtains or natural light in our beds, but if you use that space as a walk-in wardrobe, you'll need more seclusion. Even the sun-fading of your clothing might occur in a walk-in closet with too much natural light. Therefore, if a window is open or partially covered, think about installing shades or curtains.
Consider the lighting:
While excessive sunlight in a walk-in closet is undesirable, inadequate lighting can also be unsettling.
A walk-in wardrobe's appearance and feel are greatly influenced by the lighting, which is why many customers opt for ceiling chandeliers, pendant lights, or built-in LED lighting on the closet itself. So be sure to spend money on plenty of high-quality artificial lights.
Add a mirror:
If your bedroom already has a full-length mirror or vanity table, you might want to keep it for your walk-in closet since it would be very lacking without one.
However, if you don't have one or feel that your current one doesn't match the new style of your clothing, you should think about purchasing one. To determine the appropriate size and location for the mirror, consult your wardrobe designer.
Have some seating options:
You need to choose your seating options based on the size of your walk-in closet. Smaller walk-in closets are suitable for pouffes or ottomans, while medium and big ones can accommodate a bench, a love seat, or a small sofa.
Your storage needs:
Depending on the type of their possessions and how they choose to store them, each person has various storage requirements.
For instance, some individuals prefer to fold and arrange their shirts in shelves, while others prefer to have more hanging room to hang them. To create a design that satisfies your needs, you must take into account all of your storage requirements and discuss them with your designer.
Choose your accessories:
Because walk-in closets are so much more than just storage areas, people adore them.
Accessorize your outfit with a handmade rug, lamps, a picture, or a photograph because they are a mirror of your particular style and personality. We advise investing in high-quality accessories because they will give your clothing an upscale and opulent appearance.
How do I build a bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe?
Another choice is to combine your bedroom and walk-in wardrobe, in addition to transforming a bedroom into a walk-in wardrobe.
If your bedroom is large enough to fit both pieces, this can be done with ease; but, even if it isn't, we can still come up with a solution to allow you to keep your bed in the space.
The simplest solution for a large bedroom is to divide it in half with a wardrobe acting as a divider, with the other half of the room serving as a walk-in closet (as seen in the image below on the left).
Instead of utilising a wardrobe as a partition if you want the walk-in closet to be an enclosed space, you may add sliding glass doors to do so.
The alternative is slightly trickier since, if executed improperly, it might be unattractive. This is to make the bed in your walk-in closet appear natural and in keeping with its surroundings.
Conclusion
You have the choice of building the walk-in closet yourself or hiring a business to do it for you. However, converting a bedroom into a walk-in closet is more difficult than simply building a wardrobe, so in this case, we believe it is advisable to use a firm that creates the greatest modern furniture design.
Choose a company that has received positive ratings and has a skilled design team that will evaluate the space, talk with you about your needs, and develop a plan that maximises the use of every square inch of your bedroom.
A walk-in wardrobe is a lifetime investment, therefore you can't afford to take any chances when turning a bedroom into one. Therefore, don't hesitate to contact our team of award-winning clothing designers if you need assistance at any point along this journey.
