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.

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

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.

🇬🇧 Made in our workshop next to our showroom

If you’d like us to design and build a bespoke TV media unit for your home, just get in touch or pop into our showroom. We’ll take care of the rest – from initial design right through to delivery and installation.

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.

Why Craftsmanship Matters in Bespoke Furniture

 

When it comes to truly bespoke furniture, it’s never just about how a piece looks — it’s about how it’s made. At Con‑Tempo Furniture, every bespoke commission starts with a simple principle: the details matter.

From the moment we begin designing a piece, we consider how it will be used, where it will live, and how it needs to function within a customer’s home. That level of thought is what turns a good idea into furniture that feels effortless, balanced and built to last.

Designed Around You

 

Unlike mass‑produced furniture, bespoke pieces aren’t forced to fit your space — they’re designed for it. Every measurement is taken carefully to ensure perfect proportions, clean lines and seamless integration with the room.

Whether it’s a bedroom, living space or hallway, bespoke furniture allows us to work around architectural features, awkward layouts and individual preferences, ensuring the finished piece feels like it has always belonged there.

Precision Craftsmanship

 

One of the hallmarks of quality furniture is how it’s put together. Traditional joinery techniques, such as dovetail joints, are not just visually pleasing — they provide strength, accuracy and longevity.

Dovetails ensure drawers run smoothly, align perfectly and stand up to everyday use. Achieving this level of precision requires skill, experience and the right tools for the job — something our makers take great pride in.

Every joint, edge and surface is carefully prepared, checked and refined. Nothing is rushed, and nothing is overlooked.

Handcrafted in Our Wiltshire Workshop

 

All of our bespoke furniture is handcrafted in our Wiltshire workshop by skilled makers who understand wood and respect the materials they work with. Solid oak is selected for its character, durability and natural beauty, and each board is chosen to complement the overall piece.

Because everything is made in‑house, we maintain full control over quality at every stage — from initial cut to final finish.

Built to Last

 

Attention to detail isn’t just about appearance — it’s about longevity. Well‑crafted furniture should feel solid, function smoothly and stand the test of time.

By combining traditional craftsmanship with modern precision, we create bespoke furniture that doesn’t just look right on day one, but continues to perform beautifully for years to come.

Thinking Bespoke?

 

If you’re considering a piece of furniture made specifically for your home, we’d love to help. Visit our showroom, speak to our team, or get in touch to discuss your ideas — and discover what a difference true attention to detail can make.

Bespoke furniture, made properly.

bespoke ok chest of drawers When it comes to fitted furniture, it’s often the awkward spaces that need the cleverest thinking. Alcoves, chimney breasts, sloping walls and hidden services can make off-the-shelf furniture a compromise at best — and completely unworkable at worst.

This bespoke solid oak chest of drawers, handcrafted in our Wiltshire workshop, is a great example of how made-to-measure furniture solves real-world problems beautifully.

Made to Measure for an Alcove Space

This piece was designed specifically to slot into an alcove, making full use of the available width and depth without overpowering the room. Every dimension was carefully considered to ensure a clean, balanced look once installed — with no gaps, filler panels or wasted space.

Because it’s bespoke, the proportions are spot on, rather than being dictated by standard furniture sizes.

Thoughtful Design Meets Practical Detail

While the exterior keeps things simple and timeless, the real magic is in the technical detail.

Behind the scenes, the chest includes discreet access openings for utilities, allowing services to run neatly behind the furniture without being crushed, exposed or awkward to reach. This is something we deal with regularly in period homes and modern renovations alike — and it’s exactly where bespoke furniture comes into its own.

Key features include:

• Solid oak construction throughout

• Natural oak finish to showcase the grain

• Precision sizing to suit the alcove

• Smooth, soft-close drawers

• Integrated rear access for utilities and services

Everything is designed to work with the home, not against it.

Handcrafted in Our Wiltshire Workshop

Like all our furniture, this chest of drawers was handmade by our skilled team using solid oak and traditional joinery techniques. We take the time to select, match and work with the timber so the grain flows naturally across the piece, giving it a calm, considered feel.

No flat packs. No shortcuts. Just proper furniture, built to last.

Why Bespoke Makes Sense

Bespoke furniture isn’t about being extravagant — it’s about being practical. If you have:

• An awkward alcove

• Services that need hiding

• A specific size requirement

• Or a desire for furniture that truly fits your home

then made-to-measure is often the most satisfying (and long-lasting) solution.

Let’s Design Something for Your Space

If you’re struggling to find furniture that fits just right, we’d love to help. From alcove chests and wardrobes to sideboards and media units, everything we make is designed around your home and how you live in it.

Every home has its quirks… awkward corners, sloping ceilings, or spaces that never quite work with off-the-shelf furniture. That’s exactly where bespoke design comes into its own – and this latest Quercus solid oak corner wardrobeis a perfect example.

Designed specifically for our customer’s room, this made-to-measure wardrobe was created to maximise storage without compromising on style. The result? A beautifully balanced corner solution that feels like it has always belonged there.

Crafted in Solid Oak

Built from premium solid oak, the Quercus range celebrates the natural character of the timber. Subtle grain patterns, warm tones and traditional joinery give each piece its own unique personality. This wardrobe isn’t just furniture – it’s a piece that will age gracefully and last for generations.

Every component is handcrafted in our Wiltshire workshop by our skilled makers, ensuring exceptional quality at every stage.

Designed Around You

No two homes are the same, which is why every Quercus wardrobe can be fully tailored. From overall dimensions to internal layouts, shelving, hanging space and drawer configurations, we design each piece to suit your lifestyle and storage needs.

In this corner wardrobe, we created a practical combination of hanging space and shelving to make the most of every inch – proving that even tricky layouts can become beautifully functional.

From Workshop to Your Home

Once completed, your furniture is carefully delivered and positioned in your home, ready to be enjoyed. There’s something special about seeing a bespoke piece move from our workshop into its forever space – designed by you, made by us.

If you’re looking for a wardrobe that truly fits your room and reflects your style, our Quercus collection offers timeless design, solid craftsmanship, and complete flexibility.
