With so many options available on the market, it’s important to understand the differences in materials and choose a shaker-style design that you’ll love for years to come. Taking the time to select the right finish, panel detail, and overall look will ensure your wardrobe not only suits your space but also stands the test of time.
When people contact us or visit our showroom to discuss a new walk-in wardrobe or dressing room, the first thing we usually ask is what style they prefer. Do they want an open design or fitted with doors? Would they like LED lighting included? Is there enough space for an island unit? We also ask about practical needs — approximately how many drawers they require, whether they need shoe storage, and what kind of hanging space is needed (long, short, or both).
All of these details affect the overall design and cost, so getting a clear idea from the start helps us tailor the perfect solution.
To help you with your own planning, we’ve put together an article featuring 10 of the most popular walk-in wardrobe styles we’ve created for Urban customers — full of inspiration and real-life examples.
As a manufacturer of lacquered furniture fronts in London, our customers understand the importance of a lacquered finish—it allows you to choose the exact colour and shade you want, or to match any existing colour in your house, rather than being limited to the pre-selected options that laminated or foil-wrapped doors offer. Choosing a lacquered finish for your built-in cupboards means selecting from an almost unlimited palette of colours and colour combinations. This is because using the lacquered MDF we can create any shape of the door in any colour. Please find below the most trending colours for furniture fronts in 2025
Urban Wardrobes specialises in lacquered finish exteriors, and most of our bespoke wardrobe ranges are based on this sprayed finish. We work with either MDF or oak veneer panels, which allows us to create various door shapes—including handleless, integrated handle designs, shaker style, doors with mirrors, fabric inserts, and many more. This flexibility makes our furniture designer-oriented, with almost no limitations in terms of door shape, design, colour, or finish.
With so many companies now offering bespoke fitted furniture, it can be genuinely difficult to tell the difference between one product and another. Most people don’t have the time to visit multiple showrooms or inspect the quality up close. And let’s be honest—some companies rely on pushy sales tactics, throwing around “50% off” deals that come with pressure and tight deadlines. The result? Many people end up choosing something they don’t fully understand or truly want.
Your bedroom is more than just a place to sleep; it’s a haven to escape the outside world and find solace and serenity. Creating fitted bedrooms that reflect your bedroom styling and promote a peaceful ambiance is essential for a truly rejuvenating retreat. This is where creative decor comes into play, offering many bedroom design tips and ideas to transform your space into a stunning oasis.

Excellent quality and service!
We chose urban wardrobes after a recommendation from a friend who had fitted wardrobes in their new build flat. We had two alcove wardrobes in our bedroom in December - we live in a Victorian terrace where none of the walls are straight and we were amazed with the quality of the finish! The service from start to finish was excellent and I would definitely recommend.

Excellent service by Urban Wardrobes in the design and installation of bespoke fitted wardrobes in a tricky space in our loft room.
