Modern wardrobes are in great demand and popularity. Their main purpose is traditionally the storage of clothes, hats, shoes, accessories and other items, without which human life is unthinkable. Such furniture has a depth of about a meter and more, in fact, is a small room where you can, for example, change clothes.
The advantages of wardrobes are obvious:
compact dimensions and a sliding door design make it possible to install such cabinets even in rooms that are modest in area
a well-designed interior space allows you to clearly divide the area with clothes and shoes. In these wardrobes, all things are in perfect order. Special hangers, pull-out shelves, drawers, containers and baskets allow you to keep their internal content in excellent condition
the front part of some models is completely mirrored, this is both beautiful and convenient. Changing clothes, you can immediately assess your appearance, if necessary, adjust the image
A separate room, created specifically for the careful storage of your favorite clothes - every woman dreams of this. And this is a well-founded desire: much more clothes can be placed in wardrobes than in ordinary wardrobes, even very large ones. All things are in plain sight, always freely available. Here you can quickly change clothes without worrying that someone might see too much.
Another advantage of the dressing room is the ability to free the living space from bulky furniture.
There are practically no drawbacks to the dressing room, the only thing: it needs a lot of space - much more than a place for a regular closet.
So, which is better than a dressing room or a wardrobe? It is difficult to answer this question unambiguously, it all depends on the situation. In one case, a dressing room will be more convenient, in another - a wardrobe, and in the third, a combination will be the best solution.
Varieties
Today, there is such a variety of products on the furniture market that everyone can choose a suitable option for themselves, regardless of personal preferences and the style in which the home will be decorated. Wardrobes are also striking in abundance.
Among them are distinguished:
corner ones are an excellent solution for a small room. They take up little space and are very functional. The corner of the product can be internal or external
Built-in. Thanks to this type of furniture, free space is significantly saved. Cabinets are placed in wall niches or installed along one particular wall. It is difficult to make them with your own hands, but if it works out, you can significantly save money, because the price of free-standing structures is much higher. The back, side walls and bottom, replace the ceiling, floor and walls of the room
Free-standing wardrobes from floor to ceiling take up a lot of space, but if desired, their location can be easily changed
The sliding wardrobe for the hallway is an original and capacious storage of clothes (outerwear and underwear), shoes, umbrellas and hats. All internal content is hidden by spacious doors. The advantage of this furniture is the mirrored facade, thanks to which the space of a narrow room becomes visually larger.
Wardrobes for the bedroom can be safely called intimate furniture. Guests are rarely invited to this room, but clutter is inappropriate here. Designers do not recommend furnishing the bedroom with dimensional wardrobes, bulky dressers and numerous shelves. Instead, it is advised to pay attention to the built-in wardrobes. Stylish doors with spraying, photo printing or mirrors can change the interior beyond recognition, allowing you to decorate a room in any style
A wardrobe closet for a nursery will help an unintelligent child learn how to tidy up his room on his own, if, of course, the furniture has a properly designed internal filling. For example, babies cannot always reach with a tall hanger, so most of the clothes can be stowed in containers or on lower shelves. Also, things can be divided by seasons, into new and worn wardrobe items. Shoes will find their home at the very bottom. In addition, there is a place for toys in the spacious wardrobe
Designing the space inside
So that during operation the owners of the wardrobe closet do not have any inconveniences, when designing this kind of furniture for the living room, bedroom or any other room, special attention must be paid to the distribution of internal compartments.
Revision of clothes, inventory, accessories and other items that will "live" in a new closet will help to correctly divide the internal space. Having counted the number of outerwear, jackets, shirts, skirts, dresses, bed linen, etc., you need to give each type of clothing its own zone
The position of the modules is determined by the functionality of the clothing. Traditionally, shoes are placed at the bottom, while hats and accessories find their refuge at the top of the closet. The growth of owners also plays an important role. Everyone, cabinet users should freely reach the shelves, partitions, hangers.
The lower tiers, as a rule, are designed for children, the middle ones - for adults.
The upper part of the wardrobe is often used as a mezzanine, where you can hide boxes and seasonal inventory, which is needed only a few times a year.
In the openings of some models of this product, additional accessories are installed: trousers, pantograph, tie, shoe shelves, pull-out baskets and drawers of different heights and widths, etc.
Accessories can be retractable or fixed.
Design
First of all, a wardrobe closet is a place where clothes are stored, but in addition to functionality, outwardly it should please its owners, in design it should match the style of the interior in a house or apartment.
Some people mistakenly believe that the wardrobe fits only into a modern interior, but this is not the case. There are examples with such pompous decor, suitable exclusively for the classic design of the room.
Designers focus buyers' attention on the most successful combinations of wardrobes and interiors:
Japanese-style bedrooms have been especially popular lately. For such rooms, the best solution would be a white wardrobe, as an option, you can put furniture in red or black tones, painted with sakura flowers or hieroglyphs
Fans of fantasy, natural motives, travel will be delighted with cabinets with realistic photo printing
High-tech and modern styles are not characterized by the use of natural materials. Sliding wardrobes with glossy or metal sliding doors are suitable for them, which will gracefully emphasize the simplicity and at the same time modernity of the interior
Interesting interior solutions
Not everyone can include a full dressing room in the living space. Owners of small apartments should not even think about such an undertaking, because a separate dressing room will "eat" the lion's share of useful meters. But, nevertheless, there is a way out - and this is a wardrobe closet.
In fact, this is the same classic wardrobe, but with the difference that in a compartment-type wardrobe, things are arranged in such a way that it is very easy to get them, no matter where they are.
Thanks to the well-thought-out design, you can even build a dressing room in a small room, without sacrificing square meters. Designers propose to close such a dressing room with high glass doors, from floor to ceiling, cover it with a screen, hide it behind curtains or leave it unchanged.
Inside such furniture, systems are provided for conveniently storing clothes, shoes, and other things, which are open shelves, moving baskets and boxes, crossbars, boxes of various sizes, etc. There are no specific rules for the interior of a wardrobe space, it should be harmonious, affordable, save time searching and select the necessary item of clothing, and ensure proper storage of things.
Given the layout, experts recommend paying attention to the following types of room design:
Angular. It can be installed in a free corner of the room, fencing a triangular or square place with partitions
Linear. In this case, clothing storage systems are placed along the selected (free) wall. Such a layout is suitable for rooms of modest parameters
U-shaped. A variation suitable for long building structures such as corridors. The U-shaped structure is separated by doors
