Hello everyone, I am planning to use an Ikea Pax system in my open living space to create storage as well as partially divide the area. My specific question is: What are the best ways to use the Ikea Pax in open living spaces so that it doesn’t overpower the look, while still functioning as a room divider and remaining flexible? I am especially interested in design ideas that make the system appear less bulky but still provide enough storage. Do you have experience with certain configurations, door types, or combinations with other furniture? I look forward to your tips!
I would like to add a few tips to the discussion. When installing IKEA Pax wardrobes in open living spaces, it is important to choose a location where the wardrobe is easily accessible from both sides. This makes the storage space more practical and preserves the room’s overall appearance.
Further recommendations:
- Combine different door types: for example, mixing doors with glass and fabric panels creates an interesting design.
- Use flexible interior layouts with drawers and shelves for customized organization.
- Keep the color scheme light, especially when the flooring is darker.
Common mistakes include avoiding back panels because the wardrobe backs are often less attractive. Using decorative finishes or films can help create a harmonious overall look.

If you have any further questions, I’m happy to help.Thank you, these are very helpful tips! I’m wondering if anyone here in the forum has built the Pax as a room divider with a second back panel? I’ve read that this can create storage space accessible from both sides. How complex is it to implement, and what should be considered? Is it worth it visually?
