Amidst the hustle and bustle of modern life, a neat, tidy and well-organised bedroom is a fantastic way to bring a sense of calm to your space. Whether your bedroom is small and cosy or large and spacious, incorporating suitable and clever storage solutions can be just what you need to keep the space clutter-free and aesthetically pleasing. Every person will be different, and bespoke bedroom storage solutions allow individual preferences and needs to be met, creating a seamless storage design.
In this blog, we have explored how you can create bespoke storage solutions for your bedroom, so it perfectly suits your lifestyle.
Assessing Your Storage Needs and Identifying the Right Solutions for Your Space
In order to design custom bedroom storage solutions, it’s essential to assess your storage needs; once you know what you need from your storage, the easier it will be to identify the best solution.
Take note of your wardrobe and your lifestyle; do you have a broad collection of clothes, do you need storage for seasonal items, or are you looking to display certain aspects of your wardrobe? Considering areas such as these can help you identify the kind of internal wardrobe storage you may need. For example, extra space for hanging clothes, shelves for display purposes, and hidden compartments to keep seasonal items tucked away.
A good method to assess what you may need for your bespoke storage solution is to look at the storage you already have; and identify what works for you and areas that may require improvement. This will allow you to design internal wardrobe storage that not only looks good but offers the practicality you need.
Optimising Space for Small and Large Bedrooms
It doesn’t matter if your bedroom is big or small, optimising the space available is crucial either way; introducing clever design techniques can be transformative. For a smaller room incorporating built-in wardrobe storage can be a great way to make the most of the space. With clever shapes and angles, your fitted wardrobe storage can blend seamlessly with the contours of the room, making for an aesthetically pleasing visual and giving you more usable space.
Larger rooms can feature more elaborate fitted storage solutions, you may choose to integrate a walk-in wardrobe featuring separate areas for different items and integrated display shelving.
Materials and Finishes for Custom Storage Design
The structure of your bespoke storage solution is only one aspect of the design. Considering which materials and finishes to use can add to the room’s aesthetics and enhance the practicality and durability of your storage space.
There is a vast range of material options and finishes to help you get the look you want for your built-in wardrobe storage. For example, if you wish to create a more contemporary feel, metals, glass and glossy finishes can bring that modern touch, whereas woods may be better suited to a classic, traditional look.
You should also consider the size of your room. The bulkiness of wood may overshadow a smaller space but can add a sense of cosiness to a larger room, whereas strategically placed glass and mirrors can create the illusion of more space in a larger room.
Bespoke Storage Features
The great thing about bespoke bedroom storage solutions is that they cater to your needs. For example, storage solutions for wardrobes could include hanging rails, pull-out shelves, shoe racks, drawers and hidden compartments. Implementing these features into your design can provide you with a designated space for all your clothes and accessories, and help you maintain a tidy, organised space. Introducing features such as mirrored doors or LED lighting can also add to the aesthetic of your bedroom storage solutions.
The Long-Term Benefits of Bespoke Storage Solutions
Bespoke bedroom storage solutions can also offer some long-term benefits. Typically custom storage can provide better durability and longevity, meaning you can enjoy your storage for longer, and get the most value from it. Secondly, bespoke storage solutions can offer more flexibility, growing with you, and your changing needs. Finally, custom built in wardrobe storage could also potentially add to the value of your home, thanks to the convenience, functionality and aesthetic it brings.
