Going up into the loft inevitably means dealing with some angles here and there. This bedroom was lacking a little in storage space, so we built a four-door shelving unit into the triangular space, a floating desk with it’s own drawer and taller, vertical cupboard with soft-close drawers for clothing. 

This large 3.5m wide by 2.7m high bedroom wardrobe works around the usual constraints of a period Victorian house. By reducing the depth of the outer units, we managed to maintain the light from the window and have no issues with the bedroom door.

Birch Ply remains popular right now and for this wardrobe we used it for all of the interior parts. The dividers which are on show also have some cut-outs, which means you can pull open the doors by reaching in. A nice change from touch-to-open or conventional door handles.

This wardrobe and conjoined cabinet with shelves adds a huge amount of storage space to this bedroom. The customer asked for a design that set back the left-hand unit, to maintain the light from the window. All the drawers and doors are touch-to-open, with Finsa pre-finished melamine interiors and sprayed exterior parts in Dulux ‘Brilliant White’.
