Hello everyone,

I am currently facing the challenge of furnishing my bedroom with an Ikea Pax wardrobe. I am looking for suitable Ikea products that complement the Pax system well in the bedroom. I am interested not only in functional additions but also in solutions that enhance the overall look and help organize the space effectively.

Specifically, I am wondering which products integrate best without overcrowding the room, and how to practically combine them with the Pax concept – I am thinking about lighting, storage, and possibly furniture pieces that match the style.

Who has experience with this and can offer specific suggestions or ideas for combinations? Which products from the Ikea range do you consider perfect complements to Pax in the bedroom to optimize order, comfort, and aesthetics?

Looking forward to your tips and explanations!

Hello Hardypu,

your question is very well posed and allows for a range of detailed answers. The Ikea Pax wardrobe is highly versatile, so the right additions depend on your specific usage needs and room layout. Here are some points that might help you:

- Lighting: The drawback of a dark interior can be solved with Ikea "Norrsjön" LED light strips. These are slim, dimmable, and can be mounted inside the Pax doors or on shelves.
- Expansion: The "Komplement" interior fittings (drawers, clothes rails, pull-outs) are directly compatible and tailor-made for better organization.
- Additional furniture: If you want more storage furniture alongside Pax, sideboards like "Malm" or "Hyllis" are good options as they often match in material and color. For smaller items, boxes from the "VARIERA" series are also useful.
- Appearance: To create a harmonious overall look, I recommend keeping the door fronts in a consistent color and possibly placing the "Ledsjö" mirror panel or a "Hemnes" chest of drawers next to it. This adds calmness and elegance to the room.

One more question: Do you prefer an open system with clearly visible elements, or closed wardrobe solutions for a tidier appearance? This can strongly influence the choice of products.

I agree with Domau0 on many points. Additionally, I would suggest the following:

- A hanging cabinet extension like the "Pax top unit," which provides extra storage without taking up much floor space.
- To integrate the wardrobe into the room design, "Ivar" shelves with wooden doors work well – they can be painted to match and adapted as a complement to the Pax fronts.
- "SKUBB" boxes are flexible and fit perfectly into the Pax drawers, helping to keep things organized when clothes are changed frequently.

Also, make sure to measure the room and available space precisely, because, for example, Pax wardrobes come in different depths (35 cm (14 inches) vs. 58 cm (23 inches)). I recommend checking the availability of shelves and interior fittings for the exact depth you plan to use before finalizing your design, as there are differences.

Regarding the style, "Kulle" handles on the wardrobe doors can add a modern touch. Swiveling mirrors like the "Nissedal" can be a practical addition placed in front of the Pax units.

I combined Pax with the "Komplement" interior fittings. I installed "Norrsjön" LED strips inside, which makes it easier to find clothes.

A "Malm" nightstand next to it fits well and looks uniform.

Also, check out the "Skubb" storage bags—they're practical for small items.

To answer that more precisely: What does your room look like, how large is it, and are you looking for storage only or also seating?

For small rooms, I recommend the "TJUSIG" storage bench, which fits perfectly in front of a two-door Pax wardrobe.

The "Lillangen" mirror cabinet is also a good addition if you need more functionality within a limited space.

For lighting, start with the "Norrsjön" LED strips – they are specifically designed for use with Pax.
