Gold-Framed Glass Wardrobes in a Real Home

The wardrobes give this home its warm metallic line. Champagne-toned frames divide the open bays into glass shelves, hanging space and lower drawer stacks. Light built into the wardrobe interior makes the shelving and its contents legible even behind the darker glazing.

The close views matter here: a rail sits above the drawer bank, glass shelves keep the upper section visually light, and reflective panels extend the view through the wardrobe. The curved display unit near the bathroom repeats glass shelving in a smaller corner composition.

In the bathroom, a black, marble-veined counter sits over white drawer fronts below a wide mirror. The corner windows bring daylight across the stone and contrast with the warmer wardrobe frames elsewhere in the home. Stone, glass and the champagne-toned frames each contribute a different surface to the interior.

The gold-toned frame is most effective where its divisions follow the storage inside: a shelf line, a rail zone and a drawer line each has a clear place. For a new project, the useful questions are where the wardrobe opens, how a person reaches the upper shelves and whether the lighting leaves the hanging area readable without glare. The adjacent black-stone vanity shows a contrasting surface in the same home, not a reason to repeat stone in the wardrobe.

The glass-front wardrobes use 304 stainless steel cabinet bodies, while their gold-toned frames, glazing and internal finishes have separate specifications.
