* Wardrobes and beds are usually combined in the bedrom and are designed to make the most of the space available,they incorporate comfortable details such as doors which open with just a light touch and the indispensable interior lighting.

* Wardrobes are usually from 1.90 to 2m high and 55cm deep and have interior steps for adjusting the shelves.If the wardrobe has only two doors it is a good idea to put mirrors on the inside to be able to see oneself from behind as well as the front.
