Closet designer

Fitted storage works best when it is planned around what you actually own. The Arcvelle closet designer lets you divide a wardrobe into hanging space, shelves and drawers, choose whether it has doors, and produces a cut list of parts with sizes and quantities. Add it to your room in the Studio when it is done.

How do I design a built-in wardrobe?

Measure the width, height and depth available, then split the width into sections for long hanging, short hanging, shelves and drawers based on what you store. In the Arcvelle closet designer you build those sections, add or remove doors, and get a cut list with part sizes and quantities, exportable as CSV, plus a GLB model.

    Take the cut list into a spreadsheet as CSV, and export the wardrobe as a GLB 3D model.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

How deep should a wardrobe be for hanging clothes?

Around 600 mm (24 in) internal depth lets most clothes on hangers hang without catching on doors. Shallower wardrobes of about 450 mm can work with pull-out rails or for shelving only.

What does the cut list include?

Each part of the wardrobe with its dimensions and how many you need. Export it as CSV to open in a spreadsheet, adjust, or send to a cutting service.

Can I design an open wardrobe without doors?

Yes. Doors can be switched on or off, so you can plan a closed fitted wardrobe or an open arrangement of rails, shelves and drawers.

Can I see the wardrobe in my bedroom?

Yes. Add it to Arcvelle Studio to place it in your floor plan and view it in 3D with the bed, doors and windows around it.

What is the GLB export for?

GLB is a common 3D file format. Use it to view the wardrobe in other 3D software or to share the model with someone who works in a different program.
