Wardrobe Door Designs of Inherited Luxury
Wardrobes may seem like a simple piece of furniture used for storage, but the way even the doors of wardrobes have served the history of different cultures is more interesting than its selling value nowadays. Originating from ancient Egypt and Greece, wardrobe door designs were exclusive and a symbol of luxury. During the Middle Ages in Europe, wardrobe door designs became the archetype of royalty, evincing the inheritance of royal thrones. Now due to this rising importance, wardrobe doors saw a drastic expansion in the variety of their designs differing from the types of raw material they are made of, the designs they had, and the functioning of the doors themselves.

Then why should you settle for basic designs when even the early Europeans didn't? Let’s look at different styles of cupboard door designs you can choose from to give your room a unique look that people will remember.
Two-Door Functional Wardrobe Design
Two-door wardrobes are the typical style that comes with functionality from the inside and adaptability from the outside. Yes, they do go with most of the types of bedroom, let it be a compact minimalist bedroom of an apartment or a king sized bedroom with beautiful wooden flooring and elegant balcony. These two-door wardrobes can be easily customised according to the needs. But what you have to keep in mind when you choose these- is the distribution of shelves and rows per the depth of the cupboard, as depth is what differentiates an efficient wardrobe from a messy one.
Blocking of Open and Closed Spaces
These types of wardrobe door designs ask for a spacious room, as they can take a whole wall to themselves. But they do provide the due space and aesthetic to your room. By adding open shelves, you can flaunt your designer clothes and use them for functional purposes like keeping daily wear. These shelves are meant to be decorated with dresses, coats, accessories and with some additional plants too.
Print a Character
Printed wardrobe door designs are one of the most aesthetically pleasing designs if designed intricately and open-mindedly. These designs can be customised according to the decor of your room and it gives your whole room a character or a specific look. It tells where you are. For example, the design of the wardrobe in the image above gives a vibe of a soothing place, maybe in some mobile area of a mountain range where spring is the dominating season. This is what a good cupboard door design should do, communicate the character of that space and the people living in it.
Wardrobe Doors with Mirrors
Mirrors on wardrobe doors are the most popular trend because of three reasons. First, it adds to the functionality in the room. You don't need to have a different area covered in order to place a mirror. Second, it adds to the aesthetic of the room and the cupboard. You can even use mirrors of different shapes and sizes to make a pattern out of them. Third, the light looks eccentric in the room due to the reflection mirrors provide and create an illusion of space for the room.
The Japanese Style
Who doesn't want a Japanese-styled huge sliding door wardrobe for great functionality and luxury? These wardrobes seem to be an amalgamation of a vintage look with a twist of contemporary times. Coming from Japan, these types of sliding wardrobes are highly functional as they provide more space both inside and outside as they do not open like normal hinged doors. The experience of using these wardrobes is considered very soothing and comfortable. Somehow these sliders feel like an ancient grandeur but without hotch-potch or clumsiness hence they work well in small spaces too.
Patterned Glass Doors
Patterned glass doors can be called modern pieces of grandeur! Placed in a classy, subtle coloured room, with wooden flooring and sophisticated furniture complementing it, these wardrobes expand the horizon of beauty and elegance one could provide to a room. With bold colours and complementary lighting reflecting back outside these wardrobe door designs handover the due prominence to your clothes inside. You can design these wardrobe doors in many ways using geometrical shapes, flora and fauna-inspired art, and some abstract amalgamation of different shapes. The possibilities do not have a defined limit. Just keep in mind these are modern pieces of grandeur, so provide the respect they need in design, and they'll fill your space with sophistication and elegance.
Glass Doors with Sleek Frames
These wardrobe door designs are a part of the brutalist design style. Brutalism is a postmodern design style which embraces the idea of minimal design, with fewer elements beautifying a piece with great functioning and smooth user experience. It focuses more on function than the aesthetic. These doors are long glasses placed in a sleek framework usually made up of wood. To crack this design, you have to light up the insides in a way that you are able to spot your things inside from outside while making the whole thing look beautiful.
Folding Doors
Again, the uniqueness of these doors lies in their usage and user experience. Being highly efficient, they provide a very seamless user experience, which might help you get rid of the noises those hinge doors make. So you can have a leisure sleep, even when your partner runs late for their office.
