Natural, minimalist or colorful: Wall wardrobes for every entryway

Light-colored wall wardrobes for example in white or pastel tones are perfect for giving small rooms structure. On the contrary, dark shelves or wardrobes, are perfect in a big hallway with a high ceiling. Everything else you need to know about wall wardrobes in your style:

Wall wardrobes made of wood for the Scandinavian and vintage style

  • Brands: Kare Design, Pure Day, Woood
  • Dark hallway: Buttons made of light, untreated oak
    Extra tip: Pay attention to neat finishing, the knobs should conceal the screws.
  • Small hallway: narrow wall wardrobe made of teakwood with short pegs made of stainless steel
    Extra tip: In small rooms, avoid sharp or long hooks. The risk of getting caught on them is too high.
  • Large hallway: two-dimensional wall panels made of bamboo or teakwood with large clothes hooks
    Extra tip: small knobs or hooks get lost in a big room therefore hang them in such a way that they cover a large area!

Wall wardrobes made of metal for the minimalist or nordic style

  • Brands: Home Design, Rauch Pack’s, Frost
  • Dark hallway: Puristic, narrow hook rails made of chrome-plated steel make a room look airy and convey visual lightness.
    Extra tip: attach small clamp-on lights on the rail
  • Small hallway: Coat rails with additional bars on which small pegs for caps and hats can be attached.
    Extra tip: wide hat racks above the wall wardrobes make a room look smaller.
  • Big hallway: Wardrobe sets with metal frames and mirrored fronts
    Extra tip: Do not install big wall wardrobes too close to the main door otherwise they will seem too dominant.

Colorful wall wardrobes made of plastic for retro and pop art fans

  • Brands: Schildmeyer, furnlab, mooved
  • Dark hallway: Wall wardrobe with a white clothes rail and coat hangers in different colors
    Extra tip: Wall wardrobes fitted with LED lamps
  • Small hallway: Wall hooks shaped like flowers in different colors which you can hang at different heights (jackets and caps).
    Extra tip: Transparent models made of acrylic seem lighter.
  • Big entryway: Wall wardrobe with clothes hooks on which small colorful balls can be attached.
    Extra tip: Mount two to three models with about 1.5 m space in between.

The size of the hallway is more important than your personal taste when selecting wall wardrobes. Even the most beautiful wall wardrobe won’t make you happy if you keep getting caught on it.
