This is a large-sized cabinet with a sliding system, which, if necessary, allows even a bed to be placed in it. If desired, the owner in this closet can use the internal lighting.

Material

Very often wooden furniture is used in the dressing rooms, but a more economical option is to make it from chipboard, fiberboard or MDF:

  • The advantages of chipboard - availability, low price, strength and ease of use. It is used not only for the internal components of the dressing room, but also for creating original compartment doors.
  • Fiberboard (or hardboard) is most often used as partitions, back walls of furniture or the bottom of drawers. In fact, this material is very thin, but with careful use it can last for a very long time, and the price will satisfy any consumer.
  • Unfortunately, the production of MDF in Russia is low, so the cost of this raw material can be very high and not accessible to everyone, but unlike other materials it has the following advantages: durability, the ability to process by various methods and environmental safety.
  • A very affordable price level differs drywall - it can be used not only for the manufacture of various niches and shelves, but even for the construction of the cabinet.
  • Not to mention the plywood, consisting of many layers of veneer and has environmental friendliness and maximum strength.

In order to keep the contents of the drawers in sight, you can use transparent plexiglass for the manufacture of swing doors.

Cell exhaust baskets are more practical to use from plastic - a material of light and attractive appearance.

It is most appropriate to choose metal holders for hangers, the beauty of which will not be spoiled by regular use.

Determination of the necessary space for a dressing room in the bedroom

The depth of the cabinet must be at least 65 cm if things are located on the longitudinal bar along the wall. If you need to place large-sized clothing, you can use end hangers, which are located either perpendicularly or so that they are retractable. The depth in this case should be at least 35-40 cm.

To find out the width of the dressing room it is necessary to do the following calculations:

  • Determine the sum of the depth of the cabinet, the width of the doors and the required distance for easy passage (on average 80-100 cm);
  • Provided that the cabinet does not have doors, but there are drawers, then it is necessary to add the sum of the cabinet depth multiplied by two and the distance for easy passage (the same 80-100 cm);
  • If the doors are sliding and only the shelves are used, then it is necessary to calculate the sum of the cabinet depth and the distance for convenient passage.

To determine the length of the dressing room of the room, you need to find the sum of the lengths of all cabinets that will be installed there. If the cabinets are located opposite each other, then it is necessary to calculate only the length of the larger device.

The minimum size of the dressing room should be 2-3 square meters, but for a linear variety of buildings this distance will not be enough. Thus, the corner wardrobe will be much more compact and capacious here.

For full comfort it is necessary that the area was from 4 sq. M. here you can already arrange in a logical sequence both clothes and shoes, and if it is 5-6 square meters, it will be possible to even install a dressing table and a mirror, which guarantees the versatility and convenience of the dressing room.

Dimensions

  1. 14 sq.m. - It is appropriate to use a large closet in the entire wall, inside which even a bed can be located, or just a closet.
  2. 15 sq. M - the angular version will look good, which looks good and saves space, you can install even a dressing room, even a roomy closet.
  3. 16 sq.m.- it is logical to install a wardrobe, containing a large number of compartments and shelves, as well as things or bed linen can be sorted into boxes built into the bed.
  4. 17-18 sq.m. - here it is possible not only to install a dressing room in a corner, but also along the wall, provided that its length is sufficient.
  5. In the "Khrushchev" - dressing room can be made from the pantry, which is adjacent to the bedroom, with the help of the necessary repairs, or by installing a closet in the room.

Color and decor

The main purpose of the dressing room is practicality, so the design must be properly selected and provided for durable operation. Here you need to pay attention to each zone, namely:

  • top (not less than 190 cm) - only seasonal clothing is stored;
  • medium - contains everyday outfits and underwear, as well as special rod for jackets and devices for other accessories;
  • bottom - provides under special trays for shoes the presence of small boxes in which they store infrequently used things;
  • and the storage area for hats is slightly higher than the average bar.

The dressing room in the bedroom should be decorated approximately as much as the whole room. In order to separate it, you can use: a sliding door, a rotating or just a transparent door, a door "accordion", as well as a door-louver.

If there is not much space, there may be a mirror on the back of the door. Still, it would be appropriate for the bedroom to make a plasterboard partition, it can be decorated using the same material as the rest of the room, or hang up a textile drapery. Due to the possibility of large amounts of dust accumulating, it is not very logical to use a fabric finish.

Depending on the preferences of the owner, different shades of wood can be used in the dressing room. You can diversify the furniture with the help of a pouf on wheels, display cases for storing jewelry or a dressing table with an openwork mirror.

The decor in bright colors in the bedroom will look elegant and appropriate to the setting. Girls can add various elements of delicate shades (curtains, ottomans, curtains). In men, however, a more strict style can be observed and white or gray tones are used. In general, everyone can choose the style and design according to their desire and taste.

Lighting

Even if the dressing room is located in the bedroom, it is necessary to take care that the room is provided with a sufficient amount of light not only in the evening, but during the day.

For the required amount of light, the dressing room may contain: ceiling lighting evenly distributed around the room, shelves and drawers with additional lights, spotlights or wall sconces. T
