Many traditional wardrobes only have one clothes hanger rod and an upper shelf. This setup is now considered outdated because it doesn’t meet today’s storage needs.

People today have more clothes than in the past and often need two types of rods for hanging clothes: one for shirts and blazers, and one for skirts and pants. But that’s not all. Modern wardrobes can even have built-in jewelry trays and laundry baskets to make them more useful. People today like a mix of open and closed storage.

If you’ve ever lived in a house with open wire shelving, you’re not alone. These cabinets are popular because they are cheap and easy to install, but now they are considered outdated. Wire shelves feel flimsy and unfinished compared to modern designs. Wire shelves are no longer suitable for today’s needs. They don’t have the durability, beauty, and flexibility that homeowners are looking for today.

Wooden shelves are neater, sturdier, and you can customize them more easily. Avoid wire shelves and wire coat hangers. Wire coat hangers can damage your clothes over time.

No one wants to clean the inside of their closets. Carpeted closet floors were popular decades ago, but now they’re not as popular. This is because they get dusty easily and wear out quickly.

Modern wardrobes have advanced lighting systems that make it easy to find and show off your clothes. It’s important to remember that lighting is an important part of designing clothes. So, avoid overhead fluorescent or yellow-toned lighting. This type of lighting makes the light harsh and unflattering. It is less warm and clear than more advanced modern lighting options.
