Owning a walk-in wardrobe can feel like a fairytale dream come true. From showcasing neat piles of clothes to well-stacked suitcases, towels, and craft supplies – a walk-in closet can be a clutter-free space to house your prized possessions. Here are some tips to turn a mundane space into a domain where you can celebrate how you look and feel.
Making the most of your space
The best way to maximize your closet is to utilize every bit of space available. It will feel more spacious by using the vertical storage space as much as possible.

Determining the Measurements
A standard full-sized walk-in closet for two people should measure a minimum of 7 by 10 feet. It should preferably have an area of 100 square feet as this allows you to have storage units on all three walls with a quaint sitting area in the center. Smaller ones can be built with just 25 square feet.

Be Mindful of the Layout
The layout of any closet is key as it will help you define how your space works. Apart from determining its size and height, it is equally important to ask if you can fit your accessories and storage solutions.The proper layout isn’t just about optimizing the design of your wardrobe, it is also about having better access to your clothes and accessories. The last thing you’ll want is to spend time searching for your lost apparel.

Here are more essentials that will make your walk-in closet a fully functional dreamscape:
- A full-length mirror will allow you to see how your entire look will unfold. You can opt for a framed or frameless mirror. More mirrors may also create the illusion of a larger, more open space.
- Adding a vanity can add a feminine touch to the entire closet, as well as a surface to place your opulent jewelry and perfume brands.
- The right style and color palette will demonstrate that your walk-in closet is a natural extension of your room. Colours can also affect the overall appearance. Lighter colours are more suited to smaller spaces as they create an illusion of a large space.
- A closet needs enough light. Common choices include a tube or pendant light. However, you can consider more innovative options such as LED lights from hanging rods. It is best to avoid overhead lights as they can cast unflattering shadows over you. We recommend LED, pendant lights, and strip lights that go on the sides of mirrors to bring out your best looks.
- Having sliding doors can create a sleek and streamlined look for the bedroom. They also help to disguise the less dashing aspects of your closet such as laundry hampers.
