initially designed to fit a small entrance hallway, this wardrobe can be made to fit larger hallways or function as a stand-alone piece. sliding doors with concealed runners are fitted flush with the frame, creating a sophisticated appearance both in open and closed state. an inset base allows busy feet to quickly stove shoes away from the floor space.
BACKGROUND
the task was to create a closed off wardrobe for a small 3.5m2 entrance hall that could help a family of four stay organised and keep shoes and clutter away from precious floor space.
⅔ of the wardrobe is designated coats and shoes. frequently used shoes can be slipped under the wardrobe against the inset base, helping to keep an obstruction free hallway.
spacious drawers make organising family members' belongings easy. xxl bottom drawer for everything else.
DOOR GUIDE SYSTEM
the doors are suspended from bogies rolling along an aluminium rail attached to the ceiling of the wardrobe. small guide pins keeps each door in the correct position at the bottom. Both rails and guides are hidden from view, giving a visual impression of free floating doors.
cantilevered attachment of the doors allow them to be positioned off centre of the bogie assembly, making it possible to have the guide rails hidden and the doors flush with the outer frame front surface.
door bottom guide pins are invisible in every door position.
