Statement Wardrobe Fronts For Characterful, Clutter-Free Bedrooms

As well as being a place to switch off and unwind, our bedrooms also need to be highly functional spaces and enable us to get ready for the day ahead with ease. This means that storage is a critical component of every bedroom, as it allows us to maintain a clutter-free environment that's essential to relaxation.

From standalone styles to built-in systems, wardrobes can be incorporated in such a way that they blend into the background. However, they can also be used as one of the main design features in your space, allowing you to infuse your own sense of style and taste into one of the most-used areas in your home.

Here are a few ideas that we hope will allow you to tap into your creativity and give you all the inspiration you need to design your dream bedroom storage solutions.

Add Personality With Bold Colours

Choosing custom wardrobe doors in a bold, bright or rich colour which contrasts with your wall and floor colour can instantly give your room its own sense of personality.

Our wardrobe doors are available in a vast array of different colours and finishes, including rich greens, earthy reds, and romantic blush pinks. Thinking about how different colours make you feel can be a great place to start. For example, a Scandinavian blue finish can bring a sense of freshness to your space, whereas a sage green or rusty red can offer an earthiness that feels very grounding.

Pro Tip: If you're not sure which colour or finish to choose, you can order up to six colour swatch samples from us completely free of charge to compare in the comfort of your own home. We always recommend looking at these swatches under different lighting conditions to really get a feel for whether they're right for your home.

Play with Textured Finishes

If you're not into bold colours but you want to choose custom wardrobe doors that will attract the eye's attention every time you step foot into your bedroom, choosing a style that has an interesting visual texture can be a great move.

Our Valore slab wardrobe doors come in an impressive selection of textured finishes that you don't see every day. The driftwood light grey finish can look stunning in a coastal or shabby chic inspired design, whereas the Vanguard walnut finish can easily make a style statement in a mid-century modern bedroom. Other interesting options to consider include porcelain gold grey, black mustang nero, and evora stone graphite.

Create an Illusion of More Space With Light-Reflective Finishes

If you often find yourself wishing that your bedroom had just a touch more floor space, choosing a slab-style door in a light-reflecting gloss finish can help you to create the illusion of a more spacious room.

Our Ora slab style doors have a stunning soft touch finish and are available in a small selection of supergloss finishes, including supergloss cashmere, which is a beautiful neutral tone that will give your bedroom a gentle and understated warmth.

Our Zurfiz doors with a glass effect edge are another light-reflecting option and will bring an ultra-contemporary edge to your bedroom. As well as a selection of neutral finishes, this style is also available in a number of unique ultragloss finishes with stunning visual texture, including copperleaf, limestone, and metallic champagne.

Pro Tip: Choosing doors that can be installed on a sliding rail system is ideal for smaller bedrooms, as you won't need to account for the clearance required to fully open hinged doors. This is something that can make all the difference in a room where every centimetre matters.

View Hardware as Jewellery For Your Wardrobes

Accessories can make or break an outfit, and the same can be said for the handles you choose to finish your wardrobe doors.

If you're designing a contemporary bedroom and want your storage to have a sleek and modern look, choosing a slimline handle in a light-reflecting stainless steel finish can give your doors a high quality finish without overpowering the doors themselves. Alternatively, a matt black T-bar style handle may be a better option, depending on the style and finish of your doors.

There are also a number of more traditional handles in our collection, including our Windsor shell handles, which come in a variety of finishes including pewter and brushed copper. Our Windsor door knobs also offer an understated yet sophisticated look that leans slightly more traditional, which are also available in the same variety of finishes, including satin brass and satin chrome.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are statement or subtle wardrobes better suited to a traditional style bedroom in an older property?

Regardless of whether you're designing a bedroom in a period or more modern home, we always advise choosing colours and styles that suit your personal style because our doors offer plenty of versatility that can be adapted to suit an array of spaces.

For example, there's no reason why our Shaker style wardrobe doors can't be incorporated into a modern space, as the subtle panelling can bring an understated sense of character to a room. Similarly, sleek slab style doors can look stunning in a period Victorian property, where they can help to make compact rooms look and feel larger and more airy.
