Description

Armoires, commonly known as wardrobes, are freestanding storage units primarily designed for clothing and accessories. They often serve as focal points in bedrooms, but can be found in various rooms across a home. Traditional armoires have tall doors, possibly mirrored, and may include drawers below or inside. The interiors can be customized with hanging rods, shelves, or compartments for diverse storage needs. Contemporary styles range from ornate wood designs to sleek, minimalist looks. Armoires come in various sizes and materials, such as wood, metal, or a combination. They're found in furniture stores, specializing in home or bedroom furnishings.

History
History

Armoires originated in Europe as a means to store arms and armor, hence the name. As times changed, their use shifted to clothing storage. During the medieval period, these pieces became status symbols, intricately designed and decorated. By the 19th century, with the rise of built-in closets in homes, armoires transitioned from essential storage to decorative furniture pieces, often showcasing the woodworking skills of craftsmen, and became a staple in homes globally.

Future
Future

Armoires and wardrobes are evolving to meet modern needs. With urban living and smaller spaces, they're becoming more modular and multifunctional. Designs now integrate tech-friendly features, like built-in charging stations or LED lights. Eco-friendly materials and sustainable practices are shaping production. Personalization is key; many opt for customizable interiors, tailored to individual storage needs. Brands like IKEA offer modular systems, like the PAX, allowing for adaptability. As home dynamics change, armoires will remain central in offering versatile storage solutions.

Common Questions
Common Questions
What is an armoire?

An armoire is a freestanding cabinet that is typically used for storing clothing. Armoires are sized to provide hanging space and often include additional shelves and drawers. Armoires were common pieces of household furniture when closets were not readily built into the layout of a room.

What is an armoire used for?

Armoires today are used primarily for storing clothing, though they were originally used as cabinets for storing arms. Armoires were once viewed as one of the most ornate and signature pieces of furniture in a household, but today their function has largely been replaced by closets.

How deep is an armoire?

Similar to closets, armoires have a recommended depth of 24” (61 cm) in order to comfortably hang clothes on standard sized hangers. Minimum armoire depths of 20” (51 cm) are common in more space efficient armoire designs. Armoire depths typically range from 19.5”-24” (50-61 cm).
