Pros of white

Thanks to the ability of white color to reflect light, the room will always be light and cozy. The furniture itself seems light and uncluttered. A cabinet with a mirror can be decorated with an original sandblasted design. The customer chooses the image himself if desired.
Hallway
White cabinet doors harmonize well with the interior of the hallway or living room. Photo printing applied to their surface serves as a wonderful decoration. Popular images include exotic flowers and exquisite landscapes.
You can hide a lot of things behind the doors. A roomy product, like a wall, extends from ceiling to floor. Guests who come to the house for the first time always have a pleasant first impression.

Types of wardrobe doors
The appearance of the cabinet will be affected by the shape in which it is made, this is true. But the type of doors will affect it no less, if not more.
Blind doors for wardrobes

Glass doors for wardrobes

- beauty - even the simplest glass doors look beautiful.
Minuses:

Combination doors

An interesting option in which several different materials are used in the design of the doors. Most often this is wood with glass or mirror inserts. Sometimes it happens the other way around - glass or mirror with wood inserts.
Sometimes there are combined doors that combine several types of glass.
Rainbow of colors
Designers are enthusiastically placing a white piece of furniture in various interiors. Thanks to this, any room only benefits. White color harmonizes with many other shades. In any combination it looks aesthetically attractive.
It’s easy to imagine what a white cabinet looks like in an interior with a black finish if you look at the photo. Exquisite furniture is a suitable solution for modern and high-tech style. Stylish color options include a combination of white and gray.
On the market you can find many offers of cabinets with bright inserts. The combination of light and dark shades looks fresh and interesting.
If the room has bright wallpaper, then the furniture may have inserts of the same shade. These decorative elements will tie everything together. The interior of the room will look complete.
Classic style requires something special. A white wardrobe in the hallway with golden doors is an unusual solution, but it is rare. More often, gold is used for decoration. Gold patterns applied to the surface will never go unnoticed by others.
The themes of the ornaments are varied: abstraction, floral patterns, hieroglyphs. Full images are applied to the doors. The drawings depict night cities, beautiful landscapes, and still lifes. Thanks to its creative design, the furniture fits perfectly with the interior of the room in which it stands.
Use in the interior of different rooms
Initially, white was associated with royal luxury. Ordinary people chose something more practical, “so that the dirt would be invisible.” However, in the middle of the last century, light interiors gained immense popularity due to their lightness, airiness and brevity.
A white wardrobe will fit organically into:
- cool Scandinavian style, complementing pastel colors in combination with natural wood or its imitation;
- classics, including modern urban ones;
- country or rustic style, which is characterized by a matte aged surface and carved elements;
- minimalism with its emphasized contrast of colors and precision of lines.
The same piece of furniture can become the center of attention or blend into the surroundings, depending on the design of the rest of the room. A white wardrobe will be indistinguishable in an interior of the same shade. Designers advise choosing one thing: either a background or furniture.
Living room
There are a lot of opportunities to diversify the design in the living room; the most daring experiments are permissible here. The combination of snow-white looks very attractive
furniture and decoration with various textures. For example, a glossy wardrobe with a soft fluffy carpet against a background of a roughly whitewashed wall or imitation brickwork.
The living room allows you to play with bright colors and contrast. A white cabinet against a background of brightly painted walls will be the “star” of the interior. If you plan to divert attention from bulky furniture, the shade of the compartment and the design of the rest of the interior should almost coincide. For a room decorated in warm colors, a combination of cream and beige or a tandem of ivory and light pistachio is suitable.
Methods for repairing wardrobes, step-by-step instructions, recommendations
The shade of the wardrobe “bleached oak” is in harmony with the interior in cool colors. This furniture has a matte surface with a clearly defined texture. Products made from natural solid wood emphasize the luxury of the room, but their cost is steep. You can choose cheaper, but no less attractive options, made from simpler wood with a coating that imitates bleached oak.
Corridor and hallway
Usually this part of the house or apartment is decorated in neutral colors, so in a narrow corridor or small hallway a white wardrobe with a mirror would be very appropriate. This model will visually expand the room and allow you to fit quite a lot of things for everyday wear. The reflection in the mirrors will create the illusion of an ongoing space and fill the corridor with natural light, even if the room is initially dark.
Another great option for visually expanding a narrow hallway is white gloss on the facade of the wardrobe. It can be diluted with dark-colored details, for example, a black leather banquette.
Bedroom
For the bedroom, it is best to choose a design in calm pastel colors, without large bright elements. Psychologists do not recommend installing a mirror cabinet in this room. Glare from city lights or car headlights can disturb your sleep. A matte version of the coupe in combination with pastel shades that suit the temperature is more appropriate here. Depending on the natural light in the room, it can be a warm creamy tone or a cool silvery tone.
If the bedroom is very small, it is permissible to use the option with a front mirror panel, while it is desirable that the rest of the furniture surface be matte.
Filling cabinets
It is better to think in advance what the internal content will be. Popular components are shelves, hangers, drawers, plastic shoe baskets. Bedding and clothes that are not yet needed are removed on the mezzanine.
Various household appliances are placed under the bar. You can put your iron or vacuum cleaner here.
Making a choice
Consider what room you are choosing a cabinet for. By placing the compartment in the hallway, you can put on outerwear before leaving the house. The optimal color option is plain.
A built-in closet in the rest room takes up less space. Its alternative is the corner model. Furniture made from natural white wood harmonizes perfectly with the rustic style.
There is also a place for a compartment in a home office. It can house a family library.
The white cabinet matches other pieces of furniture in a vintage style. And in modernity it harmonizes with metal objects.
