– Smart Storage for Awkward Spaces

At Con-Tempo Furniture, we love a challenge — especially when it comes to awkward spaces.

This recent installation is a perfect example of how we transform difficult areas into practical, beautiful storage. The customer came to us with a room featuring sloped ceilings and limited usable space — something that many standard furniture retailers simply can’t accommodate.

Designed Around the Space

Rather than trying to make off-the-shelf furniture fit, we designed a completely bespoke sliding door wardrobe to work perfectly within the room.

Every detail was carefully considered:

• Full use of height despite the sloping ceiling
• Internal hanging space combined with integrated drawers
• Clean, modern sliding doors to maximise floor space
• A matching chest of drawers to complete the look

By tailoring the design to the room, we were able to turn an awkward layout into a highly functional storage solution.

See It Before It’s Made

One of the key parts of our process is helping customers visualise their furniture before production begins.

For this project, we created detailed drawings and renderings, allowing the customer to see exactly how the wardrobe and chest would look and function. This ensures everything is right — from layout to proportions — before we start building.

Built in Our Warminster Workshop

All of our furniture is handcrafted right here in our Warminster workshop, next to our showroom.

This gives us full control over quality and allows us to:

• Build completely made-to-measure furniture
• Adjust designs to suit unique spaces
• Maintain the high standards we’re known for

We don’t believe in “one size fits all” — every piece is made specifically for the customer.

Delivered & Installed by Our Team

Once complete, our experienced team delivered and professionally assembled the furniture in the customer’s home.

Sliding door wardrobes are always installed in the room of choice, ensuring a perfect fit and finish — especially important in spaces like this.

Let’s turn your awkward space into practical, beautiful storage.

When Other Furniture Stores Say No… We Find a Way

At Con-Tempo Furniture, we often meet customers who have a vision but haven’t been able to find a solution that works. This recent project is a perfect example.

Our customer came into the showroom with a simple sketch and a challenging room layout. They had already visited several furniture stores, but none could offer a practical or visually pleasing solution.

That’s where our bespoke service makes all the difference.

---

From Sketch to Detailed Design

We started by taking the customer’s idea and turning it into a fully considered design.

Using the measurements provided, we created detailed technical drawings and realistic renderings, allowing the customer to clearly visualise how the wardrobe would look and function in their space before production began.

This stage is key — it ensures every detail is right, from proportions to internal layout.

---

A Clever Step-Fronted Solution

The final design featured a step-fronted wardrobe, carefully built to work around the room’s layout while maximising storage.

Key features included:

• A bespoke Impello painted wardrobe design

• A practical and stylish mirrored door

• Smooth soft-close drawers

• Fully customised internal shelving and hanging space

• A clean, seamless fitted appearance

 

Every element was designed to make the most of the available space while keeping the look balanced and elegant.

---

Finished in Farrow & Ball Ammonite

 

The wardrobe was finished in Farrow & Ball Ammonite, a soft, contemporary neutral that works beautifully in both modern and traditional interiors.

The painted finish enhances the clean lines of the design, while also keeping the space feeling light and open.

---

Designed, Built & Installed in Wiltshire

Once approved, the wardrobe was handcrafted by our skilled team in our Wiltshire workshop, right next to our showroom.

Our experienced installation team then completed the project, ensuring a perfect fit and flawless finish.

The result? A completely bespoke wardrobe that not only solves the original challenge but elevates the entire room.

Sloping Ceiling Bedroom? Our Made-to-Measure Wardrobes Are the Perfect Solution

Sloping ceilings can make bedrooms difficult to furnish. Standard wardrobes rarely fit properly, leaving wasted space or awkward gaps. At Con-Tempo Furniture, we specialise in designing made-to-measure wardrobes that work perfectly in challenging spaces, including rooms with sloping ceilings, alcoves, and angled walls.

The project shown here is a great example. Our customer needed a wardrobe that would sit neatly under a sloping ceiling while providing plenty of storage. Off-the-shelf furniture simply wouldn’t work, so we designed a beautiful free-standing wardrobe built specifically for the room.

---

Designed Around Your Room

Every bespoke wardrobe we create begins with a few simple measurements. Once we understand the size of the space and the ceiling angles, our team designs a wardrobe that fits perfectly while maximising storage.

We provide:

✔ Detailed design layouts

✔ Drawings and visual renderings

✔ Expert advice on internal storage

This ensures you can clearly see how your wardrobe will look before production begins.

---

Built in Our Wiltshire Workshop

All of our wardrobes are designed and built in our workshop next to our showroom in Warminster, Wiltshire. Our skilled furniture makers carefully craft each piece to the exact measurements provided, ensuring exceptional quality and precision.

Because every wardrobe is made to order, we can tailor:

• Width, height, and depth

• Internal shelving and hanging space

• Sliding door configurations

• Painted finishes and colours

This flexibility allows us to create wardrobes that look beautifully integrated into the room while remaining free-standing furniture.

---

Sliding Doors for Maximum Space

For rooms with limited space or awkward layouts, sliding wardrobe doors are often the perfect solution. They allow easy access without requiring extra room for door clearance, making them ideal for bedrooms with sloping ceilings or tight layouts.

Our sliding door wardrobes combine smooth operation with timeless design, creating practical storage that looks elegant in any bedroom.

---

Professional Delivery and Installation

Once your wardrobe is complete, our experienced team will deliver and install it in your home.

We provide:

🚚 Free UK mainland delivery

🔧 Professional assembly and installation

📦 Removal of all packaging

This means your wardrobe is ready to use immediately, without any stress or complicated assembly.

Let’s Design Your Perfect Wardrobe

If you have a bedroom with a sloping ceiling or an awkward space that needs a clever storage solution, we would love to help.

Simply send us a few measurements and our team will take care of the rest — from design and drawings to building, delivery, and installation.

At Con-Tempo Furniture, we believe every home deserves furniture that fits beautifully.

There’s something very satisfying about seeing a piece like this finished and ready to head out the door. This bespoke solid oak TV media unit is a perfect example of what we do best at Con-Tempo Furniture – clean design, honest materials, and proper craftsmanship, all tailored to how you live.

Made entirely from solid oak, this unit has a beautifully balanced, low-profile design that works just as well in a modern living space as it does in a more traditional home. The natural grain is the star of the show, finished in our walnut oil, which not only enhances the depth and warmth of the oak but is also heat and stain resistant – ideal for everyday family life.

Thoughtful Design, Built to Last

 

The central feature is a soft-close drop-down door, giving easy access to media equipment while keeping everything neatly hidden away when closed. Inside, there’s generous storage for sky boxes, consoles, soundbars, and all those cables we’d rather not see. The soft-close mechanism keeps everything smooth, quiet, and reassuringly solid.

Every detail is considered – from the clean, handleless look to the precise joinery and perfectly matched grain. This isn’t flat-pack furniture; it’s built to last for decades, not years.

Made to Measure, Made for You

 

What really sets this piece apart is that it was made to measure. Width, height, depth, internal layout, finishes – all tailored to suit the customer’s space and equipment. Whether you need extra ventilation, wider bays, floating designs, or integrated shelving, we’ll design it around you.

If walnut oil isn’t your thing, no problem. We offer a wide range of heat- and stain-proof finishes, from natural oiled oak through to darker tones or contemporary painted options.

Let’s Build Your Media Unit

 

If you’re thinking about upgrading your living room, a bespoke TV & media unit is one of the best investments you can make. It anchors the room, keeps everything organised, and looks exactly how you want it to.

Let’s make something made just for you.

At Con-Tempo Furniture, we believe great design isn’t about working around problems — it’s about designing through them.

This project is a perfect example of how bespoke furniture allows us to transform even the most challenging spaces into something seamless, practical, and beautifully finished.

From an awkward extruded wall in the bedroom to a fully fitted 2.5 metre media wall in the living room, this home was completely rethought and tailored around the customer’s space and lifestyle.

The starting point was the bedroom — and a tricky one at that.

An extruded wall meant a standard wardrobe simply wouldn’t work. Instead of compromising, we designed a fully made-to-measure painted wardrobe that wraps neatly around the projection, creating a clean, built-in appearance as if it had always been part of the room.

The entire design was completed remotely. The customer sent us:

• Full room measurements

• Details of the extruded wall

• Their storage requirements

 

From there, our team produced detailed drawings and renderings, allowing the customer to visualise the finished result before production began.

Inside the Wardrobe

 

The internal layout was carefully planned to maximise usability:

• Generous hanging rails

• Practical adjustable shelving

• Balanced storage across the full run of wardrobes

 

Every inch of space was used intelligently, with no awkward gaps or wasted areas.

 

To complement the wardrobe, we designed and built a full suite of matching bedroom furniture, all finished to sit perfectly together.

This included:

• A bespoke chest of drawers

• Large bedside cabinets for everyday practicality

• Integrated blanket storage at the foot of the bed

 

The result is a calm, cohesive bedroom where every piece feels intentional — not added as an afterthought.

From Bedroom to Living Room: A 2.5 Metre Media Wall

Once the bedroom was complete, the project continued into the living room with a striking 2.5 metre media wall.

Designed to mirror the same clean lines and painted finish, the media wall provides:

• A strong visual focal point

• Integrated storage below

• A balanced layout for TV, media equipment, and display

 

As with the bedroom furniture, the media unit was made-to-measure, ensuring it fitted the room perfectly without dominating the space.

Statement storage designed for stress-free living

 

When it comes to living room furniture, we believe it should do more than just look good. It should work effortlessly around real life – family living, entertaining, and everything in between. Our Lusso sliding door sideboard, finished in Farrow & Ball Hague Blue with a heat and stain-proof seasoned oak top, is a perfect example of furniture designed to be both beautiful and practical.

A bold colour that makes a statement

 

Hague Blue is a deep, confident shade that brings instant character to a room. Rich and timeless, it works just as well in modern homes as it does in more traditional interiors. On the Lusso sideboard, this colour gives the piece real presence, making it a focal point without overpowering the space.

Paired with the natural warmth of seasoned oak, the contrast is striking yet balanced – a combination that feels both luxurious and inviting.

Practical sliding door storage

 

Sliding doors aren’t just a design feature – they’re incredibly practical. They allow easy access to storage without needing extra clearance, making this sideboard ideal for dining rooms, living spaces or open-plan areas where space matters.

Inside, there’s generous room for everything from tableware and glassware to books, board games and everyday essentials – keeping your home organised and clutter-free.

Stress-free, everyday durability

 

Life happens, and furniture should be ready for it. That’s why the Lusso sideboard features a heat and stain-resistant seasoned oak top, designed to cope with hot mugs, serving dishes and the occasional spill. It means you can enjoy your furniture without constantly worrying about marks or maintenance – perfect for busy homes and relaxed entertaining.

Made to measure, just for you

 

Like all our furniture, the Lusso sliding door sideboard can be made to your exact requirements. Different widths, heights, internal layouts, oak finishes and any paint colour you choose – including Farrow & Ball, Little Greene and RAL shades.

Whether you need something compact for a snug room or a larger statement piece for a dining space, we’ll make it to fit your home perfectly.

Handcrafted in our Wiltshire workshop

 

Every Lusso sideboard is handcrafted by our skilled team in our Wiltshire workshop, right next to our showroom. With over 35 years of experience, we focus on quality materials, careful detailing and furniture built to last for years to come.
