This IKEA PAX hack creates the perfect built-in closet to fit a pitched ceiling – and it's in our favorite Farrow & Ball color

An attic room painted pink with a pitched ceiling and a built-in IKEA pax wardrobe in the corner

Finding smart, spacing-saving solutions for awkwardly built areas isn't easy. In fact, more often than not, innovative bespoke designs are the only answer, especially when it comes to small rooms with pitched ceilings. There's no need to go and hire costly carpenters, though. If you're looking for a personalized built-in closet, the IKEA PAX should be your first port of call. 

Never was there a more versatile flatpack than the PAX. You can customize the size and shape of this wardrobe to maximize every inch of your space, but when awkward angles come into question, building it requires a little extra know-how.
