With the fixed, cookie-cutter layouts of the standard HDB home, it can get a little difficult to find the perfect spot for your walk-in wardrobe. Here are seven gorgeous homes that prove a little creativity can get you your dream closet space.
1) Convert your adjoining bedroom
JQ Ong helped turn this bedroom into a huge walk-in wardrobe.
With the space of a spare bedroom on hand, you can even site an accessories display cabinet in the middle.
2) Partition one end of your bedroom
A simple, small partition, like this one created by Dwell Interiors, can give you the space of an entire wall to store your clothes and fashion knick knacks.
The large entryways allow ventilation into your closet, but can be easily covered and hidden with sheer curtains.
3) Behind your bed
Just like what Project File has done here, you can place your wardrobe behind your bed, hiding it behind a partition that doubles as a full-length headboard. Not only does it help to hide clutter, it adds a unique touch to the space.
4) Don't hide it, flaunt it!
Why hide your goodies? Do what Soho Design Partnership has done and display your favourite pieces with a custom shelf. Keeping them in a cool, well-ventilated part of the home will prevent them from getting mouldy too.
5) Use your wardrobe as a divider
Faced with a ridiculously small bedroom, Three-D Conceptwerkz turned the hallway divider into a headboard and a wardrobe. Crafted the right way, the storage unit also becomes a decorative piece.
6) Tuck it into a corner
A small corner for your wardrobe might work out for the better as Design Channel has shown here. The corner offers more sides to place drawers and shelving. Hide it with a beaded curtain like this owner did or use a sliding door to save space.
7) Hide your pole system with a curtain
Try out this idea by Studio Arc: Turn a section into a wardrobe by using space-saving pole systems rather than built-in shelving.
With a curtain, you can conceal the mess or leave it open to leave your bedroom looking spacious.
