The wardrobe is not small, but if you don’t organize a few days, it will be in a mess? Do you feel that your wardrobe is too small and there is not enough space to put the clothes? When you look for clothes every time, it is troublesome and time-consuming? How to maximize the the use of wardrobe space? Follow Axcellent to learn these skills of layout planning!

When designing a wardrobe, we need to consider whether it is convenient to place and store. According to the height of the human body, generally the wardrobe will be divided into three main areas: the top area, the middle area, the bottom area.

It’s generally difficult to take clothes in the top area, so we don't need to do too many layers on the top, we can keep a larger space for quilts or luggage.

We can make more layers in the stacking area of the middle area. It is recommended to choose the adjustable layer, so that the bottom area can be used flexibly later to design more drawers, and the drawers can be used to put underwear or other small things.

Basic Layout

According to the frequency of clothing use and living habits, the wardrobe usually is divided into four areas, respectively, the high area, the middle and high area, the central area, the bottom area.

1. The high area: mainly placed in low-frequency use of items, such as infrequently used quilts, etc..

2. The middle and high area: usually put clothing inconvenient folding, and this area can be designed to hanging clothes area, such as coats and down jacket.

3. The central area: high frequency use of clothing, such as underwear, socks, etc. can be placed in this area, which is easy to pick up.

4. The bottom area: the area used in the medium frequency is suitable for storing heavy items, such as seasonal clothing or luggage.

According to the User to Design the Wardrobe

When we plan the internal space of the wardrobe, in addition to the functional classification, we can also plan and design it according to different age groups or use groups. Broadly speaking, it can be divided into the following categories:

1. Wardrobe for Children

Children grow faster, and like to climb up and down, so the design of the wardrobe is mainly based on safety. Secondly, the child's needs change a lot, so we should consider the development of space diversification.

(1) The internal design of children's wardrobe can be made more flexible, so that it can be adjusted as the child's growth.

(2) In addition to being able to place clothes, the wardrobe can also leave some space for accommodating children's toys, etc..

(3) We have to consider the height of the child to design areas that are often used, which is easy for the child to use.

(4) Do not design drawers at the height of the child's head, etc., which can prevent collision accidents.

It’s the best way to design plenty of adjustable space, and it is recommended to replace fixed partitions with movable partitions and wooden drawers with plastic drawers. These two methods are easy to move around and allow you to change the layout according to the needs of different stages. You can also store children's toys, sports equipment, etc..

2. Wardrobe for Young People

Young people have a lot of clothes whose styles are various, so when we design the wardrobe, the main focus is on the hanging area.

(1) Hanging area can be divided into long clothes, short clothes two parts, which can occupy as much space as possible.

(2) Drawers can be made special small compartments for storing underwear, ties and socks, or some accessories, etc.

(3) Trouser can be hanged on special trouser hangers, or can be stored in deeper drawers.

(4) The bottom or side of the wardrobe can be used to store suitcases, or storage drawers.

3. Wardrobe for the Elderly

(1) Considering that the elderly bend over and move around, we should pay attention to reduce the storage of items in high and low areas.

(2) We can properly reduce the hanging area, by increasing the stacking area, drawers, separating the laminate, etc. to expand the closet storage power.

(3) We can design more laminates and drawers, and the position of commonly used drawers or partition position should not be too low, because the elderly will be inconvenient when squatting down to get things.

4. Wardrobe for Couple

(1) Divide the clothing for man and woman so that finding clothing is more accurate.

(2) It is recommended to separate the four seasonal clothing, and plan the hanging area according to the different length of clothing for man and woman.

(3) We can also set up compartment drawers to store scarves and ties and other small items, and can also add lift type clothes pass, trouser rack, etc..

5. Wardrobe for A Family with Children

(1) Children's clothes can be placed in the middle and bottom area where it is recommended for the folded clothes area. This facilitates the development of self-care ability and storage awareness of children, but also allows children to learn to wear, providing more choice of space.

(2) The layout of adults' clothing can be divided according to matching habits and can be simply partitioned into man's and woman's area.
