Default Recommended furniture dimensions - Armoire

I think someone here once mentioned a resource that lists recommended
dimensions for different types of furniture. Can someone post a link?

I'm especially interested in the recommended depth for an armoire that
would have a clothes-hanging rod in the usual orientation: parallel to
the back. Also the height of the clothes-hanging area. Let's assume it's
for shirts and pants folded over hangers. No dresses. No outerwear.

Thanks in advance.


I don't want to sound smart ellicky. But if you are going to build this
for yourself walk in to your closet and measure the closet rod from the
wall and double that figure plus an inch or two. Measure the length of
clothing that will be in the piece you will be building and again add a
few inches.
