Location: High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire

Project Type: Bespoke Fitted Wardrobe

Completion Date: May 2026

Lead Designer: Vlad Livinschi

Installation Team: Vlad Livinschi & Ionuț

Project Overview

Every family has unique storage needs, especially when a child’s bedroom must accommodate clothing, personal belongings and treasured collections within a limited amount of space.

Furnitureistic was commissioned to design and install a bespoke fitted wardrobe for a family in High Wycombe that needed to do far more than simply store clothes.

The project required a custom-made solution capable of combining practical everyday storage with dedicated display areas for an expanding model aircraft collection while maintaining a clean, modern and organised appearance.

The result is a highly functional fitted wardrobe that maximises available space while creating a personalised feature that reflects the child’s interests and personality.

The Client’s Challenge

The family struggled to find a furniture solution that could effectively combine two important requirements:

Practical Everyday Storage

The bedroom required sufficient hanging space, shelving and drawers for clothing, accessories and daily essentials.

Dedicated Display Space

The child had developed a growing collection of model aircraft that deserved to be displayed safely and proudly rather than hidden away inside standard furniture.

Off-the-shelf wardrobes could provide storage, but they could not successfully integrate purpose-built display areas without wasting space or creating visual clutter.

The client approached Furnitureistic looking for a bespoke solution that would:

✔ Maximise storage capacity

✔ Keep the room organised

✔ Create dedicated display areas

✔ Complement the room’s design

✔ Adapt to the family’s lifestyle

The Furnitureistic Solution

After assessing the room dimensions and understanding how the space was used, Furnitureistic designed and installed a completely bespoke fitted wardrobe tailored specifically to the family’s requirements.

The design carefully balanced functionality, storage efficiency and visual appeal.

The finished installation combines concealed storage with open display shelving, allowing the child’s aircraft collection to become part of the room’s design while maintaining a tidy and organised environment.

Why Bespoke Wardrobes Are Ideal for Children’s Bedrooms

Children’s rooms often need to evolve as interests, hobbies and storage requirements change.

Unlike standard furniture, bespoke fitted wardrobes can be designed around:

• Collections
• Hobbies
• Learning spaces
• Display requirements
• Awkward room layouts
• Future storage needs

This flexibility allows families to create rooms that remain functional and visually appealing for many years.

The bespoke design maximised functionality, improved organisation and created a unique feature that reflects the child’s interests while maintaining a clean and contemporary appearance.

The finished installation demonstrates how thoughtful bespoke furniture design can improve both storage and quality of life within the home.
