Hello everyone,
I recently looked into IKEA’s PAX systems and am curious about which rooms are best suited for using PAX. In my opinion, PAX wardrobes are especially flexible and practical when placed in areas where storage space is often limited, but I would like to hear more targeted experiences and opinions on this.
Is it mainly bedrooms where these wardrobes really shine due to their customization options? Or could the living room or a home office also be suitable, since these rooms often require storage for a variety of different items?
What are your thoughts, especially considering room-specific requirements, functionality, and design? Do you have experiences about which rooms make the most sense for PAX and possibly some where using them is less advisable?
Looking forward to your insights!

Clearly: bedrooms and walk-in closets. This is where PAX shows its strengths – lots of storage space, customizable, and organized. In the living room, it is rather impractical since uniform furniture is often preferred. In the home office, it depends on storage needs but usually is not the first choice.
PAX in the bedroom is like your best friend who’s always there for you! 😄 Of course, you can sort, hang, and stack to your heart’s content – it really makes the space cozy! It also works great in the hallway, especially when space is limited. You can easily store shoes, jackets, and other items there. Living room? Well, that’s not really the ideal place for PAX; I prefer something a bit more stylish and lighter there, but to each their own! 😉
The use of PAX systems is especially practical in bedrooms, as both hanging and folded storage space are needed there. PAX offers modular interior components that can be adapted to variable room sizes. Walk-in closets also benefit from this system.
For home offices, PAX can be useful when large amounts of documents or work materials need to be organized, although alternative furniture with specific functions (shelves, drawer cabinets) often fit better in this context. In living rooms, PAX is often considered less suitable due to its angular and somewhat functional appearance, as living spaces primarily focus on comfort and representative design.
In summary, I see the main applications as follows:
- Bedrooms and dressing rooms: optimal
- Hallways and entrance areas: useful when space is limited
- Home offices: possible but usually not preferred
- Living rooms and other representative spaces: uncommon and less practical
