Instead of opting for an L-shaped wardrobe, which is the most common choice for bedrooms, you can go for a U-shaped wardrobe. This will create the illusion of having a walk-in wardrobe. The extra column of storage cabinets will act as the divider and you can easily get dressed behind it. Isn’t this a clever idea?

Use LED strips on the steps

Dividing your bedroom into two halves is a great way to make space for a dressing- area-cum-wardrobe. You can achieve this look by creating an elevated space for the bed with the help of steps. Wooden flooring is the ideal choice to get the look right. The other half will be your walk-in closet designated area, with storage space on either side and a dressing unit right in the middle.

#4. Stay Organised

Walk-in wardrobes with transparent doors need to be maintained and decluttered regularly

Making a walk-in wardrobe and then leaving it cluttered is not the way. Since these wardrobes are mostly open-shelved, it is important to keep them organised. Install as many shelves as needed to keep things organised.  You can use the upper shelves for accessories, middle ones for clothes and the lower ones for storing shoes. 

#5. Display Cabinets

If you’ve got a walk-in wardrobe, flaunt it

Installing a lavish wardrobe and not displaying it well shouldn’t be the case. Prefer transparent doors or no doors at all for your walk-in wardrobe. Make sure to install proper light fixtures to illuminate them.
