The IKEA Bedroom Hack That Could Change Storage And Organization As We Know It

Bedrooms should be a relaxing sanctuary to begin and end each day, but they tend to become more like chaotic catchalls than tranquil retreats. Even when we make the most of a small closet and do our best with a clunky dresser, they still have a way of overflowing. Before you know it, your bedroom is overrun with clothes, linens, books, and that growing miscellaneous pile in the corner you swear you'll sort through but never do.

Enter the IKEA PAX system. To solve the age-old bedroom storage and organization dilemma, IKEA once again thought outside the box — or the closet, as it were — to develop a customizable wardrobe system that allows you to tailor your bedroom organization to your needs while optimizing dead space around the room from floor to ceiling. Not since under-bed storage solutions has there been such a breakthrough in maximizing every last inch of the bedroom for storage and organization.

The beauty of the PAX system is its ability to adapt to any space and accommodate just about any bedroom storage need. While this makes the cost equally as unique, PAX wardrobes range from a few hundred dollars to a few thousand, depending on the size and add-ons you choose. Its hyper-customizable design leaves bedrooms more organized and better utilized in a way that conventional bedroom furniture can't match.

If you want something that will make your bedroom more organized, the PAX wardrobe system may fit the bill. In true IKEA form, assembly is pretty straightforward as well. The best part? Every part of the PAX system is highly customizable. The wardrobe frames come in a variety of sizes, ranging from 79 ¼ inches high, 19 ⅝ inches wide, and 13 ¾ inches deep to 93 ⅛ inches high, 39 ¼ inches wide and 22 ⅞ inches deep. The options for internal organization are virtually endless, with a selection of drawers, pull-out trays and shoe shelves, clothing rails, pants hangers, jewelry trays, storage baskets, the list goes on and on.

Of course, IKEA believes in making organization look good, so they also offer a range of doors and lighting options for their PAX system. Choose from hinged or sliding doors in a variety of styles and select handles and knobs to match, or leave the doors off altogether. Add sensor lighting or other smart lighting options that can be easily controlled with IKEA's Home smart app. They even have a handy PAX planner tool to design your wardrobe system online.
