Over stair box in bedroom

[LittleMissMe99]

My daughter has that box in her room. You know the one I mean. He room is tiny and she doesn't want a bed built on it. I would like to make it storage. So thought about building a wardrobe on it. However, I'm wondering could I just buy a wardrobe and attach to the wall? I can get used wardrobes pretty cheap. Has anyone done this?

We have that, have done various things over the years including building a bed over. We now have storage.

It's a triple PAX wardrobe frame from Ikea, then the internal fittings are hanging rail at the top then drawers underneath. The top 2 drawers are full depth, then where the stair box gets deeper, we have a half depth drawer and then a shoe rack (which is at 45 degrees). You can't tell at all from outside (or even when you open it) that the stair box is behind it. Excuse my daughter's fake ivory!!

That looks amazing, a great way of hiding the box

We had o e specially built to fit. It cost a bloody fortune! If you can find or adapt one ‘off the shelf’ I would do that.
