Why Modern Apartments Demand Custom Wardrobe Systems (And How MRETTY Delivers)
In Singapore’s fast-paced urban landscape, where 80% of residents live in high-rise apartments averaging 750 sq ft, space efficiency and personalized style are non-negotiable. A generic wardrobe won’t cut it—modern apartment dwellers crave modern apartment wardrobe systems that blend seamlessly with their interior, maximize every inch, and withstand humidity, wear, and daily use.
Enter MRETTY, Singapore’s leading high-end custom furniture brand specializing in premium wooden/panelized solutions. We don’t just build wardrobes; we engineer lifestyle upgrades. Whether you’re in a Marina Bay condo or a Tampines HDB upgrade, our systems are tailored to your space, style, and sustainability needs.
Step 1: Audit Your Needs—From Storage Habits to Aesthetic Goals
Before sketching a single line, MRETTY’s designers start with a needs analysis—a critical first step in crafting your perfect modern apartment wardrobe system.
What We Assess:
-
Storage Priorities: Do you hoard shoes? Need a jewelry nook? We map out zones for hanging, folding, accessories, and seasonal items.
-
Space Constraints: Corner walls, sloped ceilings, or narrow corridors? Our 3D modeling tools visualize solutions before installation.
-
Style Alignment: Minimalist? Scandinavian? Industrial? We align with your existing decor using mood boards and material swatches.
Pro Tip: Singaporeans often underestimate “hidden” storage needs—like keeping humidity-sensitive items (wool coats, leather bags) safe. MRETTY’s systems include dehumidifier-compatible drawers and moisture-resistant panels.
Step 2: Precision Measurement—Zero Compromises on Fit
Even a 2mm gap can ruin a high-end wardrobe’s look. MRETTY’s team uses laser-measuring tools and on-site scans to capture your space with 99.9% accuracy.
Why It Matters:
-
Hidden Hinges & Flush Doors: Our hidden hinges require ±0.5mm precision to sit flush—no misaligned gaps.
-
Floor Protection: We lay anti-scratch film during measurements and installation to safeguard your pre-polished concrete or parquet floors.
Client Example: For a client in a Jervois 4-bedder with uneven marble floors, our team adjusted bracket heights by 1mm per side—result? A seamless, gap-free finish.
Step 3: Material Selection—ENF-Grade OSB & Aluminum Honeycomb Innovation
MRETTY’s modern apartment wardrobe systems stand apart with materials engineered for Singapore’s climate:
Feature |
MRETTY |
Competitors |
---|---|---|
Core Panel |
ENF-grade OSB (Formaldehyde ≤0.025mg/m³) |
E1/E0 particleboard (higher formaldehyde) |
Structural Tech |
Aviation aluminum honeycomb (lightweight + 3x stronger) |
Solid wood/particleboard (prone to warping) |
Paint Finish |
E0-level water-based paint, 5-base/3-top coats |
Solvent-based paint (strong odor, less durable) |
Door Thickness |
25mm (sturdier, less vibration) |
18-20mm (warps in humidity) |
Special Features |
Water full aluminum cladding (anti-swelling) |
No specialized moisture protection |
Why ENF OSB?Singapore’s high humidity (avg. 80%) causes subpar boards to swell. Our OSB resists moisture, while FSC certification ensures ethical sourcing—key for eco-conscious buyers.

Step 4: Design Finalization—J-Grooves, Soft Furnishings & 3D Visuals
MRETTY doesn’t stop at functionality. We elevate aesthetics with:
-
J-Groove Design: Subtle vertical grooves on doors add texture without clutter—perfect for minimalist Singaporean lofts.
-
Soft Furnishing Models: Need a walk-in closet with a vanity? Our 3D renders include curtains, lighting, and decor to visualize the full space.
-
Custom Hardware: Choose matte black, brushed gold, or hidden handles to match your style.
Case Study: The Orchard Residences Penthouse
Client: A fashion designer with 200+ pairs of shoes and a vintage handbag collection.
Challenge: Maximize storage in a 12sqm walk-in closet while maintaining a sleek, gallery-like look.
Solution:
-
25mm thick oak-effect doors with J-grooves.
-
Aviation aluminum honeycomb core to support heavy shoe racks.
-
Full aluminum-clad water(for a built-in perfume display).
-
Hidden LED strips to highlight accessories.
Result: A functional, Instagram-worthy space—client called it “the closet of my dreams.”
Step 5: Installation & Post-Care—Flawless Execution, Lifetime Support
MRETTY’s installation team follows a 72-point checklist:
-
No-Dust Protocol: We seal off the area with plastic sheeting to prevent debris.
-
Calibration: Every hinge is tested for smooth operation; doors aligned to 0.1mm gaps.
-
Post-Installation Guide: We provide care tips (e.g., using microfiber cloths, avoiding harsh cleaners) and a 5-year warranty on hardware.
Why MRETTY Leads Singapore’s Modern Wardrobe Market
Beyond our technical specs, we understand Singapore’s unique needs:
-
Humidity Resistance: Aluminum honeycomb and ENF OSB prevent warping—a common issue with cheaper systems.
-
Small Space Mastery: Our slim-profile designs (as narrow as 50cm) fit HDB bedrooms without sacrificing capacity.
