Divide wardrobe storage by garment type and frequency so daily dressing does not require moving other items.

Plan in this order
- Inventory hanging, folded, long and accessory items before choosing fittings.
- Place everyday garments in the easiest-to-reach sections.
- Check drawer extension and wardrobe door access against the room layout.
Worked example
Long coats and folded shirts share a wardrobe planned with only one hanging rail height.
Inventory garments by length and frequency, then assign separate hanging and drawer zones before choosing internal fittings.
How to test it
Use a full-size wardrobe mock-up to test reach and drawer operation.
Apply it to this space
- Layout
- Locate quieter sleeping rooms away from late-night circulation and give each resident a clear storage zone.
- Detail
- Use blackout layers and individual bedside controls for light and charging.
- Trade-off
