Bidding goodbye to that old cupboard that’s been in your room since childhood? About time, we’d say! But hang on. Before you step out to buy yourself a brand new wardrobe, here are a few pointers that will come in handy — from wardrobe materials and colour to shelves and drawers.
Wardrobe Design Pointers You Must Know
What is your current need?
When your old wardrobe is no longer sufficient to hold your clothes and accessories, find out what exactly it is you’re missing and need space for.
Which wardrobe colour are you looking for?
When you pick a new wardrobe now, you can actually match or opt for colour in contrast to your room wall colour. Check out an exclusive range of Armadio wardrobes that come in trendy wardrobe
What is your requirement for wardrobe drawer and shelf?
Make a rough layout of how would you like to divide your wardrobe — more shelves, fewer drawers or more hanger space. Shelves that are too high to reach and drawers that are too tight to pull are a big no-no.
Which type of door you are looking for?
Figure out if you want sliding or hinge doors, with a dresser or not. Be wary of low-quality channels that are used for wardrobe door designs in India. Ensure you check and re-check before finalising a wardrobe design.

How much space do you need for your wardrobe?
Most importantly, are you buying a new wardrobe to save on space or is it an extension of the current one? Measure the height, breadth and length before you set your heart on a particular wardrobe design.

Says who? If space allows, many people these days opt for walk-in closets as it allows them to look at their entire collection in one easy go. Good, sturdy walk-in closet designs are now available in India.
