Starting Young: Why Kids Deserve Great Wardrobe Design Too 

At California Wardrobes, the team believes that good storage habits start early—and they design wardrobes for children with the same care and consideration as for adults. 

A child’s wardrobe isn’t just a scaled-down version of an adult’s. It needs to be adaptable, visible, and easy to use. Debbie, California Wardrobes’ spatial designer, prioritises adjustability—so as kids grow, their wardrobe grows with them. Shelves can be moved, hanging rails lowered or raised, and compartments reconfigured to suit changing needs. 

Encouraging independence is key. Hinged or sliding doors are typically favoured over bi-folds, which can be difficult for small hands to manage. Clear visibility helps kids see what they own and where it belongs, making it easier to form habits around tidying, folding, and dressing themselves. 

Drawer dividers are used for socks, undies, and school uniforms, while low-level hanging space allows children to reach what they need without assistance. There’s even space for “dump drawers” for pocket treasures and accessories, keeping mess manageable. 

By designing storage that children can grow into—and take pride in—California Wardrobes empowers families to stay organised and stress-free. Because when everything has a place, even the busiest school mornings feel a little more under control.
