Walk-in closets may always be the more aspirational storage goals for homeowners, but some of the latest built-in wardrobe designs are making a case for pulling closets out into the open.
Often fitted directly across a wall (unlike moveable armoires, an age-old precursor to closets), built-in wardrobes can be made-to-measure, designed as custom storage solutions for awkward and unusable wall space, or bedrooms that lack proper space for a walk-in closet. Upping the ante, architects even pull them away from the wall entirely, creating wardrobes akin to floating closets anywhere throughout the home.
