Corner built-in wardrobes in the bedroom: photo ideas inside and outside

If the house does not feature spacious bedrooms, do not despair. To rationally plan a narrow space, you can choose a spacious but compact corner wardrobe for the bedroom, which has excellent performance characteristics and sophisticated style.

Why do you need a closet in the bedroom and where should you put it?

The bedroom is one of the smallest rooms in most homes. However, few people can afford to dedicate an entire room exclusively for sleeping, placing one bed in it. In addition to the bedside tables that are usually present in the bedroom, many people have a closet for clothes and linen. The explanation for this is banal - there is simply no space in other rooms.

Corner wardrobe with fabric upholstery

Some people even like the fact that their clothes are in the same room where they sleep. If the apartment or house is small, then the wardrobe is not only a place to store clothes, but also an entire dressing room in which jackets, coats, etc. are stored.

The advantage of a corner wardrobe in the bedroom is that it takes up little space due to its unique design.

The name of this item means that its place is “in the corner.” When choosing a corner in which to place a wardrobe, you need to take into account not only where there is space, but also other points:

• It should not stand adjacent to a wall with a window. It is best if the sun's rays fall directly on the cabinet or on the side of it.
• There must be easy access to all shelves. If in order to get to the necessary thing you have to stand on the bed or move it away altogether, the location of the closet is definitely not good.

Spacious design for a large bedroom

Advice A sliding wardrobe is one of the largest pieces of furniture in a room, so choosing a place where it will stand must be done first.
Usually the bed and closet space is planned, and then smaller items are arranged.

Types of built-in corner cabinets

It would seem, how many configurations can you come up with for a corner cabinet? It turns out that designers have a rich imagination. Judge for yourself.

• L-shaped . Two rectangular sections are connected at right angles. The most spacious option, which is also very careful about the square centimeters of your bedroom. Suitable for small rooms where every millimeter counts.

• Triangular . The facade connects two walls with one straight line, forming a triangular niche. With a large width, it does not use space efficiently. A competent layout of the interior space is needed. However, it is a very convenient option in small bedrooms where you need to smooth out corners and find space for narrow cabinets. If you need to hide someone in a closet, then this model is the most convenient for this case.

• Trapezoidal . Such modules are often used as components of complex structures. Unlike the triangular model, it is much more convenient to arrange shelves, rods and storage baskets.

• Radius . It is divided into concave and convex models. The first ones unobtrusively create additional volume. In fact, they serve as a modification of triangular cabinets. The latter play on L-shaped silhouettes. Soft lines fit well into modern, high-tech, romanticism, and eclecticism.

• Combined . Combines elements from the above models. For example, L-shaped with a wavy facade line.

• With open shelves . In some models it is convenient to leave open shelves. They can be used to store books, CDs, decorative porcelain, and flowers. The unusual shape of the shelves can become the highlight of the interior.

• With mezzanines . Sometimes the height of the ceilings allows you to place mezzanines on top or on the side of the cabinet. At the same time, you need to take into account that you should not hang them above the bed, since the module with things weighs quite a lot. It is better to place the mezzanine on a free wall. For example, above the desktop.

Why a wardrobe?

Why do corner wardrobes look fresh and stylish today? Some people mistakenly think that this furniture belongs to the category of new products. In fact, the first mentions of sliding wardrobes go back to the time of Napoleon.

Classic style is always in fashion

Napoleon used them both to organize the interior of his houses and to organize military locations (portable cabinets).

The only difference between that furniture and modern wardrobes is that they were closed not with sliding doors, but with an ordinary screen. Decades later, designers and planners took up the idea of ​​improving the models that had spread far beyond France. In our country, corner wardrobes became widely used in the 90s, and today almost every apartment or house has at least one model.

Practical and tasteful

Known for their practicality, corner wardrobes immediately began to enjoy popularity. It is not surprising that in bedrooms, the area of ​​which is usually not large, these are the items that are used.

Manufacturing materials

Modern sliding wardrobes are made from practical and safe materials. Rattan, bamboo, wood, glass, MDF or chipboard are used. The design made from a combination of several materials looks especially impressive.

The durability of the product is determined by the quality of the moving mechanisms. Therefore, it is not advisable to save money when choosing components. Since the door will have to be used regularly, be sure to check the softness of the rollers. There should be no extraneous sounds when they move.

For the manufacture of guides, steel or aluminum is used. Aluminum track costs more because it is more durable. If you want the product to serve properly for as long as possible, do not consider cheap options with steel guides, even if you like their design.

The main materials for the internal elements are chipboard and aluminum wire, which is usually covered with a polymer film. For convenience and ergonomics, special mechanisms are used: pantograph elevator, lifts, rollers, wheels. Of course, all this increases the cost of the product.

Kinds

There are two main types of corner wardrobes:

• built-in;
• cabinet (free-standing).

A built-in wardrobe will help hide the defects of the room

Deciding which type to choose depends on the characteristics of the room and the amount of free space. Built-in wardrobes usually take up less space, since their walls are adjacent to the walls of the room . Due to this, you can win free space in the room.

Another advantage of a built-in corner wardrobe in the bedroom is that it can be designed in such a way that it hides the shortcomings of the room. For example, the most common of them are uneven walls. A built-in wardrobe will cover this defect forever.

The case version is suitable for those who like rearranging

At the same time, if we talk about the mobility of furniture, then preference in this matter is given to cabinet wardrobes.

The separate parts of the cabinet version can be easily rearranged if necessary, for example, this design feature will be useful when washing floors and other cleaning. In addition, some people cannot imagine furniture standing in the same place all the time; for them, rearranging a room is a common thing, but doing this with a built-in corner wardrobe is more difficult.

How does a built-in wardrobe work?

The built-in corner wardrobe with sliding doors has no frame. Its structure is quite simple and consists of sections tightly fastened together and fixed to the walls. These models provide for the installation of only the frame and shelves in a niche.

The structural elements are the ceiling, floor and walls of the room. These are the types of cabinets that are traditionally considered built-in. To secure the guides, use a false frame. This is a frame located around the perimeter of the opening into which the filling of the built-in wardrobe is installed.

Guides for the sliding door are mounted at the top and bottom of the false frame. On the left and right, doors approach the frame when opening and closing.

Main functions of the false frame:

• Compensation for uneven surfaces.
• Solving the problem of the lack of a right angle in the opening.
• During installation of the structure, cracks may form. To prevent debris and dust from getting into the cabinet through them, they are covered with special covers.

Types by shape

The design of modern furniture sometimes surprises with its originality. Corner wardrobes are no exception, which means that the variety of their shapes and designs will allow everyone to choose an option to their liking. The main ones include:

1 Triangular . These are classic models that arose at the very beginning of the history of corner furniture layout. Their main advantage is the simplicity of the layout and design, which affects the price - usually the cost of such models is the lowest. Among the disadvantages is cumbersomeness, because triangular wardrobes “take away” part of the bedroom area.

Economical storage option

2 Trapezoidal . There can be many trapezoid shapes and cabinets made in this format too - their sides can be completely different sizes. Compared to triangular ones, the design of trapezoidal corner wardrobes looks more complex and sophisticated.

Sophistication in the interior

3 L-shaped . Models of this shape are much more spacious than all others. Despite this, they look neat and not bulky. If you compare a triangular and an L-shaped corner wardrobe, the latter can accommodate more things, but it will take up no more space.

The L-shaped model takes up little space and has good capacity

4 Pentagonal . These models are much more expensive than the previous ones, but despite this, they are in great demand. Firstly, they are distinguished by their spaciousness, and, secondly, they look rich and will be a wonderful addition to the design of any interior.

More expensive and elegant option

5 Radius . Corner wardrobes are the most difficult to make and expensive, so they are rare. In a bedroom with a regular, classic design and set of furniture, such models will look ridiculous. They will fit only into a luxurious interior, for example, made in the Empire or Art Deco style; they are usually not available in stores and are made to order.

Luxury in the interior

Advice A significant role in choosing the shape of a wardrobe for a bedroom is played by personal tastes and views, which must be taken into account so that later, when entering the room, you can enjoy its appearance.

Shape and dimensions

There are several options for corner wardrobes, which differ in individual configuration. Modifications of the main types include:

• triangular structures;
• trapezoidal;
• g-shaped;
• corner coupes - “five-walled”.

L-shaped

Diagonal

Trapezoidal

Triangular

There is also a non-standard option with a combined corner cabinet configuration, which allows you to improve the basic options for maximum use of the entire corner. This design technique gives the furniture individuality and convenience. If you want something new, designers recommend a concave cabinet. The absence of sharp lines gives the product an unusual and spectacular appearance. The semicircular wardrobe looks interesting and stylish.

A triangular wardrobe with a corner section will fit perfectly into the hallway. Although its configuration does not provide for a large number of shelves, the rail placed inside will allow you to compactly hang a whole mountain of outerwear. As a rule, triangular structures are made without side walls and therefore the cabinet requires a minimum of installation space.

A characteristic feature of a trapezoidal coupe with a corner element is the side wall, which forms the line of an irregular trapezoid. Thanks to the installation of additional elements, you can organize the interior space as rationally as possible.

A popular modification of a corner wardrobe with dimensions for any room is L-shaped. Made from a combination of two straight cabinets joined together. This is a good idea for stylish interior design and creating a convenient storage system.

The most massive version of the compartment design is five-wall corner cabinets, which are distinguished by the greatest functionality. From the outside, additional consoles and modules look very harmonious. If you have enough space to accommodate this option, cover the corner with a five-walled compartment.

As for the sizes, it is easiest to determine the height: standard compartments are made to fit the room under the ceiling or 1-2 cm lower. The remaining parameters are calculated taking into account the characteristics of the room where the item is planned to be installed. To make it clearer, let’s consider the minimum dimensions (specific drawings are provided by craftsmen who make custom-made cabinets):

• for example, a diagonal cabinet with a triangular design has a minimum length of right angle sides of 120 cm. If this value is reduced, the internal volume will be very small and the shelves will be very narrow. To reduce the size of the product without compromising the internal volume, the cabinet is made with a beveled corner;
• if there are walls of different lengths, for example, 1.2 m and 0.8 m, it is better to choose the option with a closed trapezoidal design. On the longer side, a partition is organized, its depth is 40-50 cm, a straight line is drawn from this element to the short wall;
• for small lengths of adjacent walls, it is recommended to install an L-shaped structure;
• five-wall compartments easily fit into a small room with a wall length of 0.8 m or more. They can even be placed in a small corridor. However, in this case, you will cover too much space due to the large depth of the product, and the room will shrink even more;
• In terms of depth, sliding wardrobes are produced in two versions: 45 and 60 cm; it is not advisable to make them less than 40 cm.

For compact rooms, the optimal solution is L-shaped structures with shelves. They are not so massive and do not take up much space. Want to visualize this? Draw a picture with all the cabinets you like on the room diagram. Next, it remains to calculate the free area obtained as a result.

Door selection

Doors play an important role, both in the practicality of using the cabinet and in its appearance. Many people, when going to the store, already clearly know what door design they would like to see. The main options are:

• swing;
• retractable

Each of these options has its pros and cons. Hinged doors are a classic that are usually suitable for old-school people who don't like modern designs. They open towards themselves, that is, into the room.

A corner wardrobe with hinged doors is a choice for everyone

The main disadvantage of swing doors is that they are suitable for large bedrooms, because in order for the door to open completely, you need a lot of free space . If it opens halfway and you have to stand on the bed to reach what you need, it’s unlikely that the choice of cabinet was a good one. Unfortunately, not every bedroom area allows for a wardrobe with hinged doors.

Among their advantages is that they fit almost any interior and at the same time look simple but classic. In addition, swing doors are more reliable, because sliding doors are based on a whole mechanism that consists of many parts. If something breaks over time in a wardrobe with sliding doors, then most likely it is the door mechanism.

Sliding doors help save space in the room

The main advantage of retractable doors is that they save space, because no space in the room is required to open them. Thanks to this, a corner wardrobe in a bedroom with sliding doors can be positioned in such a way that other pieces of furniture are pushed as close to it as possible, while leaving a small passage so that you can freely stand in front of it.

Note: Some older people refuse wardrobes with sliding doors, considering this design to be very complicated. In fact, they work on the principle of doors in a train compartment, and to see for yourself the simplicity of the mechanism, before buying it is better to come to the store and try for yourself how they work.

Dimensions

There are no standards for the dimensions of corner wardrobes, so if the manufacturer you choose refuses to take into account the measurements you made, you can refuse his services, since he is unlikely to be a professional. Of course, each supplier has established standards for product sizes. However, professional manufacturers can change them based on your wishes.

Plenty of space, and not just for clothes

For the average bedroom, the following sizes of corner wardrobes are distinguished:

• height: 200-250cm;
• depth: 50-70 cm;
• width: from 50 to 250 cm (each side is different, depending on the shape and design).

By placing an individual order for the manufacture of a wardrobe for your bedroom, you can receive furniture that fits the size of the room as best as possible. Sometimes some area at first glance seems completely useless, but after thinking carefully, you can rearrange the existing furniture in such a way as to occupy it.

Not just a closet, but a separate dressing room

Advice When choosing a new corner wardrobe for the bedroom, you should not focus on the place where the old one stood. Often replacing furniture is a reason to rearrange. If you have placed previous furniture in certain places, and it has been there for years, or even decades, it is better to reconsider the layout of the bedroom, incorporating fresh ideas and ideas.

Types of designs

All models of cabinet furniture can be divided into several categories depending on the features of their design, as well as the nuances of use:

1. Modular. The cabinet consists of several separate parts of different purposes and sizes; they can be installed together or separately; sometimes the kit includes external shelves. If you choose this option, there are a great variety of design solutions, bold and original. The modular closet is also distinguished by its functionality and convenience.
2. Closet. A good option for small rooms, since opening its doors does not require additional space. The design style can be anything, but most often such designs are distinguished by clear geometric shapes and minimal decor.
3. Wall. Dimensional design consisting of several sections. The internal content differs depending on the model; the walls can be equipped with drawers, a niche for a TV, shelving, bookshelves, and compartments for clothes.
4. Corner bar cabinet. Its display case with beautiful dishes will look good in the interior of the living room; cabinets of this type fit even in a small space.
5. Pencil case. Narrow design with two side and rear walls, one or two doors. One of the few options suitable for installation in a small room.
6. Sideboard. Classic cabinet furniture for the living room: behind the glass doors there are shelves for dishes. Although this is not the most modern option, a sideboard sometimes looks very organic and adds sophistication and coziness to the room. Fits perfectly into a classic interior.
7. Slide. A distinctive feature of this corner cabinet is its shape - a kind of ladder of modules where you can store books, souvenirs, and photographs. Beautiful dishes are often placed in glazed compartments.
8. Showcase. Most of the facade, and sometimes even the shelves, are made of glass. Used to display valuable items, antiques, beautiful dishes.

Filling options

The storage system in the closet is the most important indicator that those who want to purchase practical furniture that would be useful in use and can use for a long time focus on. The main elements that fill a cabinet of any shape are:

1 Shelves . This is an indispensable addition to any closet. Shelves can have different shapes, which depend on the shape of the structure itself; if the corner wardrobe is triangular, then the shelves will follow its shape, and if it is L-shaped, then they will be square or rectangular. Previously, cabinet manufacturers adhered to the principle “the more shelves, the better the cabinet,” but modern models imply the presence of such a number of these parts that others fit well.

Distribution for your clothes

2 Boxes . These pull-out elements are designed mainly for storing small items: socks, underwear, etc. However, some corner wardrobes do not contain drawers at all, especially triangular ones, since it is difficult to install them into their design. When choosing this part of the cabinet, it is necessary to take into account how they close; it is advisable that they be equipped with a closer for smooth closing.

Small and cozy wardrobe

3 Rods . Designed for hanging clothes, mainly outerwear, on hangers. They are located at different heights and by their level you can determine what they are suitable for: the lower ones are for skirts and trousers, their height is usually about 1 meter, and the higher ones are for dresses and outerwear, their height is usually about 1.5 meters . If there are rods for outerwear, they have enough free space around them, but they are not found in all closets.

Note: The corner wardrobe in the bedroom itself is not intended for storing outerwear, and if such a compartment is added, this is done to save space in other rooms.

Doors like these help keep your wardrobe in order.

4 Baskets . They are usually made for clothes that are stored folded, such as tank tops and T-shirts. It is also convenient to store shoes in them; some people practice storing slippers in drawers. Typically, baskets in corner wardrobes have the same pull-out mechanism design as drawers; therefore, they are often absent in triangular-shaped models.

Internal filling

The internal structure of the compartments or modules is also important. Modern corner cabinets in the living room are equipped with a storage system that allows you to organize the contents and provide them with proper conditions. The internal contents of the cabinet vary depending on the purpose of the product:

1. Wardrobe. Equipped with wooden shelves for things and home textiles, drawers for small items, metal or plastic baskets, and a rod for outerwear. Some models have external shelves or niches where you can display framed photographs or souvenirs.
2. Bookshelf. Equipped with shelves for storing literature, can be open or closed. Closed models usually have glass facades.
3. Cupboard. The lower part is hidden under blank facades; inside there are wooden shelves on which heavy utensils are placed: plates, dishes, trays, jugs. The upper section is equipped with doors with a glass facade; the shelves are made of wood or glass and are intended for storing beautiful sets and glasses. The back wall is often decorated with a mirror.

Do you need a mirror?

Some corner wardrobes in bedrooms are equipped with mirrors, others are not. What is the reason for the choice of this interior element or its absence? Most women don't mind having a large mirror that they can look in to preen themselves immediately after getting dressed. At the same time, prejudices are not alien to many, so it is considered a door to the other world, and magical properties are attributed to it.

A mirror is always practical

Designers and planners are always ready to add a mirror to the main door of a corner wardrobe. It can be of different sizes and have any shape. Among the disadvantages, not counting superstition, is the high cost, because furniture with a mirror always costs more.

The advantages of such models

• A mirror adds light, and the illumination of the room affects the comfort in it. Where else if not in the bedroom should you take care of creating a cozy environment?
• A mirror has the ability to visually change the bedroom area and proportions. Thus, tall mirrors make the room more spacious, expanding its boundaries, which is especially appreciated in bedrooms with a small area.
• Many people dress in the bedroom, so placing a mirror in it will be appropriate from a practicality point of view. So in this case, the presence of this element is not so much a whim as a necessity.

With or without a mirror - the choice is individual

Note: According to Feng Shui and many other similar areas, a mirror in the bedroom is definitely a bad omen, which promises adultery and divorce. If you doubt whether to trust such sources of information or not, it is better to refuse the mirror on the corner wardrobe in the bedroom, so as not to experience emotional stress later.

Facade design and colors

For a headset, not only operational properties are important, but also aesthetic characteristics. To prevent the appearance of the closet in the living room from spoiling the interior of the entire room, you need to ensure that its style and shade are combined with the rest of the items. A large dark model will not fit into a room decorated exclusively in light colors - it will attract undue attention to itself. Such a wall, slide or pencil case is appropriate only where all the other furniture is similar in shade, and the space is large enough so that its visual reduction is not decisive. Mirrors on the doors, on the contrary, will create an illusory expansion.

Ideally, the tone of the set and the room should completely match, this gives the atmosphere harmony and homeliness.

To maintain a unified style, you need to choose items with similar shapes. For example, for the Art Nouveau direction, where the table, chair backs, and armchairs do not have sharp corners, all details are rounded and smoothed, it is better to choose a radial cabinet with a facade in the shape of a hemisphere. A model of regular geometric shape, without unnecessary decorations, will fit into high-tech and minimalism styles. Facades can be glossy or matte, the preferred colors are gray, beige, white, black, metallic. Natural wood textures, carved decorative elements, baguettes, and stucco molding are relevant for classic interiors.

How to properly arrange furniture in the living room, designer tips

Cabinet material

The choice of material is an important detail when choosing a corner wardrobe for your bedroom, especially if you are thinking about how long the furniture will last you. It is a mistake to think that the more expensive the cabinet, the better quality it is. Of course, high-quality material is expensive, but there are also many fakes offered by unscrupulous manufacturers.

Provence style

Advice If you doubt that you can choose the material yourself and check its quality, it is best to seek help from professionals. It is better if these are not sellers and other employees of the store you have chosen, but independent experts.

As a rule, the cabinet and its contents are made of the following materials:

1 chipboard . This is the most popular material for making any cabinets, that is, it is pressed wood coated with a special varnish (lamination effect). Among the advantages of choosing chipboard are cost-effectiveness, since its cost is lower than all others, lightness, and strength. Among the disadvantages, the most significant is the fact that this material is “afraid” of moisture, although in the bedroom the risk of moisture getting on the furniture is small, but it still exists.

Custom shape with mirrors

2 MDF . Wood is also used to make this material; it is steam treated under high pressure, then dried and glued together using paraffin and other substances. MDF is more durable than chipboard, and it is also resistant to moisture, steam and other external irritants. In this regard, a wardrobe made of MDF material will be more reliable, but it will also cost more.

Durable and durable

For some, the edge, sides and back wall of a corner wardrobe are absolutely unimportant details. However, these elements are the key to the strength of the furniture. Therefore, no matter what beautiful and stylish wardrobe you choose, so that it does not fall apart in a year, you need to take into account these structural features.

Filling

A corner closet must accommodate a large number of things. Therefore, it is usually equipped with many different-sized internal drawers. A standard wardrobe should have:

• open spacious drawers for bed linen, pillows, blankets, rugs;
• medium-sized drawers for storing clothes;
• section for holding things on hangers;
• compartment for shoes and accessories.

A corner wardrobe is an invaluable part of a bedroom arrangement, especially if the area of ​​the room leaves much to be desired. Due to its beautiful design, it can be used as a decorative accent in interior design. The main thing is to choose a model so that it matches the rest of the decor.

Color selection

The basic rule when choosing the color of a corner wardrobe for a bedroom: it should match the interior of the room.

If you are filling a bedroom from scratch, then, as a rule, the choice of furniture begins with either a bed or a closet. In this case, you have the opportunity to choose the wardrobe you like, and then, based on its color and design, select other furniture.

Printed door - a bright solution

Psychologists have long warned that the color scheme of a room greatly affects a person’s emotional state. If we again remember the fact that a person spends a third of his life in his sleep, which means he is in the bedroom more often than in other places, then you need to take time to choose the color of the wardrobe. Here are the features of the impact of popular shades on a person:

Red

The red color scheme in bedroom interior design must be used very carefully; only small details can have this shade. A sliding wardrobe is too large an element of the interior to make it red . Psychologists say that such a bright color leads to nervous excitability and overstrain.

Red color for a bold interior

Orange

Despite the fact that this color is associated with cheerfulness and positivity, it is better to choose it in those rooms where you need a feeling of cheerfulness. It is unlikely that such a room is a bedroom, so if you make a corner wardrobe orange, then it should be calm, close to light brown.

Blue

This relaxing shade can be safely used to decorate a wardrobe in the bedroom. For example, many people like the idea of ​​creating a whole room in a Mediterranean style, so blue furniture would look very appropriate.

Corner wardrobe - compartment with blue print

Brown

This color was the most popular furniture shade in our country in the 90s. Today it is still relevant, so it can be safely used for a corner wardrobe in the bedroom. However, it is better to choose light shades rather than gloomily dark ones.

Note: Some colors will look ridiculous, bright, defiant, or, on the contrary, gloomy if the entire closet is painted in them. Therefore, designers recommend combining them with each other. These colors include: white, pink, purple, green, yellow.

Why is it better to make custom-made furniture?

For most of those who decide to purchase new furniture, the easiest way is to go to the store and buy the product they like. Still, it is much more practical to order a corner wardrobe for the bedroom individually. Here are just a few reasons for this:

• Interior design trends dictate their conditions, and sometimes the owners, when decorating a bedroom, decide to combine incongruous things, for example, they use several techniques and styles, or decide to experiment with colors. If you need a green-purple wardrobe, it is unlikely that at least one furniture store will have one in stock, but if you contact the manufacturer with an individual order, they will be happy to fulfill your desire.

Radius corner cabinet

• Every person, especially housewives, knows how many shelves, drawers, baskets and other contents they will need. For example, if a married couple adheres to a denim clothing style, so that the man does not have suits, and the woman does not stomach skirts and dresses, then they do not need a large number of rods inside the closet. To ensure that the model is practical and all its space is used, it is best to order it individually.

Original built-in wardrobe

Tip To make sure that you will like the custom-ordered corner wardrobe, you can first go to furniture stores and get acquainted with the models they offer. If you have such a financial opportunity, you can order the services of designers who will design the look of the wardrobe and how it will look in the bedroom, and evaluate the results in a 3D image.

Lighting

Some wardrobes include small lamps that are located on the top panel. The easiest way to add them is when the top panel of the corner cabinet protrudes slightly, creating a kind of “visor” on which the light bulbs are located. As a rule, they are present in those models that also have a mirror.

Black and white always look great

In addition to the fact that this additional lighting makes it easier to see yourself in the built-in mirror, they also help you find the things you need at night when your spouse is still sleeping, or early in the morning when it’s still dark and someone needs to get up and look for clothes. In addition, experts name other reasons why it is best to add lighting inside the cabinet:

• No matter how good the lighting in the room is, there is still darkness inside the closet, so even during the day it can be difficult to find the right thing: first you have to pull it out into the light, open it, and in case of a mistake, put it back. Backlighting will save time spent searching for the right things.

Backlight saves time

• Lighting helps take care of your health, because where clothes and shoes are stored, a lot of dust and other debris always accumulates. The presence of good lighting allows for thorough cleaning, detecting debris in time.

Caring for a corner wardrobe

If you do not devote proper time to cleaning and caring for the wardrobe in the bedroom, this will not only lead to a deterioration in the appearance of the furniture, but will also pose a threat to health. After all, if you remember again how much time a person spends in the bedroom throughout his life, it becomes clear that constant inhalation of dust is dangerous.

Adviсe:

• The first cleaning of the wardrobe in the bedroom begins immediately after its installation, both built-in and cabinet. As a rule, installers use saws, drills and other tools, so before filling things, it is necessary to thoroughly clean both the cabinet and the floor.

Semicircular shape - an unusual solution

Advice Before installing a wardrobe in the bedroom, it is recommended to cover the floor with film and remove all the furniture or at least cover it. This will make the cleaning process easier after installation.

• It is recommended to carry out cleaning by wiping dust on and inside the cabinet several times a week. To do this, you need to use rags made of soft fabrics, and forget about hard devices such as hard washcloths, scrapers and other products.
• Every few weeks it is necessary to empty the cabinet and carry out wet cleaning on its surface and inside it. To do this, it is best to use a regular soap solution or any products with a natural composition. The use of detergents containing aggressive chemicals is strictly prohibited: this will harm both health and furniture.

A discreet wardrobe with a large mirror

• If there is a built-in mirror, it must be cleaned regularly with special glass cleaning agents. If small stains appear, they need to be wiped off immediately, as stained mirrors look terrible.

Other tips for selection and care

You need to start choosing a corner wardrobe for your bedroom after taking measurements of the room and the expected size of the wardrobe. After this, it is recommended to go to the store to look for suitable and liked options. When you like a certain model, you need to consider whether it is realistic to implement it based on the measurements you made.

A wonderful model for a bedroom in black and white colors

Unfortunately, most buyers are forced to choose bedroom furniture based on acceptable dimensions, not their own preferences. Particularly large spaces are occupied by radius corner wardrobes, which attract attention but require a lot of space. If you really like a particular model, but there is no way to put it in the bedroom, why not think about purchasing it for the living room or hallway.

You need to think through all the little things . If you decide that you will have a simple door that opens outward, pay attention to whether it will be convenient for you to do this, based on the size of the room and the distance to other furniture. And if you choose a door with a mirror, consider whether this is appropriate if you have small children or pets.

Angel print is good for a child

When placing an order, be sure to specify not only the terms of payment and delivery, but also whether the furniture will be installed for you and completely assembled. Some models of corner wardrobes are almost impossible to assemble on your own; this requires not only knowledge, but also special equipment.

When putting things away in the closet, they need to be distributed evenly, so that the load on the shelves, drawers and other fillers falls evenly. Thanks to this approach, the furniture will last longer.

Simple but tasteful

The approximate lifespan of a wardrobe in a bedroom is from 8 to 25 years. What is the reason for such a big difference between the permissible period? First of all, it depends on compliance with the rules for caring for furniture, as well as on the quality of the chosen model.
