First Things First
The first place to start is.. does it look good? Fit with your bedroom furniture? Latest Wardrobe Designs For Bedroom 2018 are usually the largest item of furniture in your bedroom, so its essential they look just right. Wardrobes in high gloss lacquer are the current modern vogue, but regardless of fashion the first thing to think of is ‘Will a very, very large expanse of this colour/finish look good in my room?’. Many people tend to try to match the wall covering, which is a good idea if you want to maximise the appearance of space in your bedroom, & gloss/mirrored wardrobes reflect light back into the room so can be great for smaller spaces, or bedrooms without much natural light.
Dark woods or dark colours are best only really if you have other dark furniture in the same finish & have a large bedroom & of course whites & neutrals usually work well, as they are unobtrusive. But wardobes don’t have to blend in with the walls – lime washed French style Armoires can be a feature in themselves. Whatever you choose look at the outside first.

Quality – How Long Does It Need To Last?
Let’s face it, sometimes buying an inexpensive option is the right thing to do.
