It is impossible to imagine a modern apartment without a convenient storage system. Grandma's wardrobe and chest of drawers are a thing of the past, now more and more people prefer thoughtful dressing rooms, especially since manufacturers meet halfway and offer options for arranging a dressing room that are available to almost everyone. Even the game characters of online games have peculiar dressing rooms. For example, the magnificent Tsar's dressing room in the game "Domovyata", where even the door looks like a magic one from a fairy tale!
Modern dressing room
So what does a modern dressing room look like? Surely every fashionista immediately imagines Carrie Bradshaw's chic dressing room from the popular TV series Sex and the City. A whole room for storing clothes and shoes is, of course, a dream, not always available in ordinary small apartments.
But a dressing room is not an inaccessible luxury, it is, first of all, a place where things are in order and remain for a long time: they are not spoiled by pests, they do not fade, do not become dusty and do not cake. Therefore, it is not necessary to acquire a separate room for clothes in order to organize a dressing room in it, it is enough to follow a few rules when organizing storage of things.
First, there should be a weak natural air exchange in the dressing room. In the absence of air in things, bacterial decomposition, rotting begins, things crumble and decay. Unfortunately, periodic ventilation does not fundamentally change matters; constant weak ventilation is needed. It is very important that the ventilation is not too intense, otherwise there is a risk of spores and pest eggs falling into the dressing room along with dust.
Secondly, don't forget about light. Even weak natural light ensures that clothes are safe from moths, the larvae of which develop only in complete darkness. Thirdly, neither clothes nor shoes like sudden changes in temperature and humidity, so when arranging a dressing room, you should take care of this too.
Types
As a rule, dressing rooms are designed individually for each customer, taking into account his wishes for the filling and configuration of the room in which the dressing room will be located, therefore there can be a lot of types of dressing rooms. Still, there are several basic types.
Chipboard wardrobes
They can be either built-in, frame, or consist of separate modules. The main advantage of such furniture is efficiency. Minus - there is no way to rearrange the shelves in height or width to suit your needs, you will have to discuss all the nuances with the designer in advance.
Metal and mesh wardrobes
Quite universal - modules can most often be changed and rearranged as much as necessary; moisture resistant - in rooms with high humidity, chipboard cannot be used; linen in nets is well ventilated and does not cake. Of the minuses, they are more expensive compared to particleboard.
The dressing room can be open type, designed into the interior, or closed - this is either a specially designated room, or a fenced-off area of any room in the apartment. The walk-in closet can be arranged in a niche, in a corner, or attached to a wall.
Filling
The main items that should be in every dressing room are an open hanger and wardrobe. The rest of the items can be as many as you like: boxes, brackets, extruders, pull-out shelves, rods, containers, hangers, as well as any number of sections and shelves. Thanks to the modular system, modern furniture for dressing rooms has become so versatile that it is possible to organize a good dressing room even in a small studio apartment. The main thing is to comply with all Building Norms and Rules (SNIP).
