Cashmere in the bedroom: the trend tone that's here to stay
Cashmere isn't a loud beige. It's a very pale, soft beige with a touch of gray – warmer than classic cream, calmer than pure white. That's exactly why the tone is popping up everywhere right now: as a wall color, on sofas, and now on wardrobes too.
Why now, of all times? After years of cool gray and sterile white, many people are looking for colors that feel cozy without seeming outdated. Cashmere does exactly that: it feels sophisticated and warm at the same time, without the clinical look of pure white. A large white wardrobe can feel out of place in a room. In cashmere, it blends softly into the surroundings instead – and because the tone is subtly muted, dust and fingerprints show up noticeably less than on glossy white.
You have more flexibility in combining it than you might think. Cashmere works with almost any bedroom wall color:
- Sand, cream, and light wood like oak or ash for a calm, monochromatic look
- Sage green or smoky blue for soft contrasts that make the tone shine
- Anthracite or black as an accent if you prefer something more modern and edgy
And the question we hear often: Is cashmere the same as beige now? Not quite. Beige can go in any direction, from yellowish to rosy. Cashmere, on the other hand, always has that slight gray undertone, which makes it feel cooler and more sophisticated than classic warm beige. That's exactly what makes this tone so versatile to pair with other colors.

Push-to-open: opening without handles, how it works
What exactly is the push-to-open function? In short: you press lightly against the front, a spring in the internal hinge gives way, and the door or drawer pops open a crack. No handle, no pulling, no fumbling in the dark at six in the morning. The push-to-open internal hinge sits completely hidden inside the structure – from the outside you see only the smooth, handleless front.
Are systems like this reliable? Yes, as long as they're well made. The spring or magnetic mechanism is now standard in modern kitchens and furniture and is accordingly well-developed. With 'Robe', the function is built directly into the structure – not an aftermarket part bolted on that could come loose.
The real payoff is in the look: a seamlessly smooth front makes the wardrobe feel calmer, and in cashmere the tone really shines through because no handle strips interrupt your view.
'Robe': the wardrobe that grows with you
'Robe' is mokebo's answer to a problem most wardrobes have: rigid standard sizes. Instead of choosing between too narrow and too wide, 'Robe' grows with your space:
- Width from 47 to over 227 cm, expandable without limits in width
- Height 197 or 234 cm with top unit
- Depth 58 cm
- Particleboard body with durable, matte lacquer coating, wipe-clean
- 20 mm board thickness for noticeably more stability than thinner standard furniture
- Soft-close drawer slides that close gently instead of slamming
'Robe' is made in Germany and delivered by parcel service straight to your door. You handle the assembly yourself with instructions – the wardrobe arrives in several packages that may come at different times.
The beauty of it: 'Robe' isn't just a bedroom wardrobe. As an entryway wardrobe, a linen cabinet, or storage in the kids' room, the same structure looks great in any space. You start at 47 cm and expand in width as much as your space allows – theoretically without limit.
Buy push-to-open or retrofit it?
Can you actually retrofit push-to-open? In theory, yes, with matching hardware for the inside of the furniture. In practice, it's more fiddly than it sounds: the mechanism has to match the door and body height exactly, and with very tall doors, it's recommended to combine multiple hinge types so the door closes properly long-term. For a single wardrobe, the effort rarely pays off.
That's why a wardrobe like 'Robe', where push-to-open is part of the design from the start, is usually the easier choice. The mechanism is tailored to the body, not forced in afterward – you'll especially notice this with the taller 234 cm versions.
How to position & care for it correctly
A wardrobe of this size should be anchored to the wall, especially in households with children. Even though 'Robe' stands stable with correct assembly: a wall mount is generally recommended for tall, narrow furniture and is quick to add.
For care: the matte lacquer coating wipes clean easily with a damp cloth, no special cleaners needed. Here's a classic tip many overlook: an open bowl of rice inside the wardrobe can absorb excess moisture and prevent musty smells – especially handy in rooms with little air circulation.
Find your 'Robe' configuration
At mokebo you'll find 'Robe' in widths from 47 to over 227 cm, available with or without a top unit. For your first apartment, a narrow version around 90 to 137 cm often works fine, but for two people in a bedroom, the full width from 180 cm makes more sense. If you have space in your entryway, 'Robe' also works great as a wardrobe cabinet.
