When deciding on the right closet wardrobe, the best advice is to have a plan and design it for your lifestyle. For instance, do not just use a "cookie cutter" system or design, as I guarantee you that you will regret it in the long run. And also do not fall into the trap of designing the male side the same as the female side, again this will be a big mistake for you. Think about it and plan it, such as design the space for the ratio of categories, such as trousers, skirts, long jacket and dresses etc. Men & Women clothing ratio and catergory sizes are very different, and you will just waste precious space if you don't still to a ration plan. If your going to create the right closet space, get it right and spend the time and prepare it, get the advice from professionals that do design and installs daily. If you do it right, it will create amazing value to your home that you will reap the rewards for many years to come.... A closet is a real investment these days and home buyers are treating them like a room all on their own and judging the space that way too.

@siriuskey - thanks for the images, can see it definitely works nicely with some of those, esp that first one! unfortunately being an original californian bungalow, the front windows aren't very big so im hesitant to cover them; they are similar in width but not quite as tall as the windows in that middle picture. our bedhead, when i am standing comes up to about chin level (im 165cm) - i don't think the picture i posted does it justice as you can't see the bed legs haha...so i think it would end up looking like the middle picture :( @girlguides - i like your suggestion for shuffling around the ensuite layout - it does make sense to have the door infront of the vanity. we will try to get a bit of extra length on the ensuite (all based on council town planning restrictions due to proximity to our neighbours) and that should allow for the entrance to sit comfortably in the corner of that wall with some nice space around the vanity...will still be tight to fit the bed, side tables and door tho!!! side tables are 65cm each, and bed is approx 190cm... and width of the room is 4m on each side....so will potentially be a skinny 750cm sliding door to the ensuite...which of course is better than a skinny entrance door to the bedroom tho!!

looks wrong as it is currently - IMO it would look way better centred in height between ceiling and vanity and also possibly better centred to the basin, since it's offset to the vanity - a mirror centred to the vanity but offset to the basin could look odd - but it's hard to judge accurately from those photos as it's hard to gauge the scale of all the various elements.............like with everything to do with design it's always about balance
