## The Brief

**Shaker wardrobes**

**Private client – Tunbridge Wells, Kent**

Rex, the family’s black Labrador, comes in first, every time. The client wanted a boot room built around that: a bed big enough for him under the window, out of the way of the door, with the coats, boots and bags of a busy household handled just as well.

## The Neatsmith Designer’s Solution

Our [Tunbridge Wells](/showrooms/tunbridge-wells) designer gave Rex the window. A dark oak run below the sill opens into a recessed bed, upholstered on the base and up the back, lit and wide enough for him to stretch out in, with open shelving alongside for leads and towels.

Opposite, full-height Shaker doors in After Eight matt lacquer, a dark oak interior behind, turned hooks in three sizes, and an upholstered bench with boot shelving beneath.

- RANGE: Shaker Wardrobes
- FINISH: After Eight Matt Lacquer & Dark Oak

## The Final Result: Designed around your whole family

Deep green doors, brass knobs, dark oak behind: closed, it reads as part of the house. Open, it works. Coats on the hooks, boots under the bench, small things in the lit cubbies above, and the full-height mirror for the last look on the way out. But the room belongs to Rex.

He gets the window, the light, and a bed built in dark oak to the same standard as everything else in the room.
