Functions of a corner wardrobe in the bedroom
In the bedroom, the closet carries a huge functional load. It stores not only various clothes and small items, but also heavy bed linen, blankets, pillows, towels and more.
Taking this into account, it is better to choose large, spacious cabinets with shelves, drawers, and rods for clothes.
- Of primary importance when choosing bedroom furniture is the strength and safety of the material from which the furniture is made.
- The best option is an array. Wood is warm and durable. Typically, bedroom sets are made from pine.
- This is a high-quality material, quite soft, ideal for interior items.
Pine has a beautiful color and texture (although pine is sometimes given shades of other types of wood, for example, walnut), and it also has healing properties, exuding a pleasant, air-disinfecting aroma.
Thanks to its antibacterial properties, pine is less susceptible to rotting. Quite expensive cabinets are made from it, which serve more than one generation, maintaining their excellent appearance and functionality.
Furniture made from laminated chipboard (chipboard) or, even better, from MDF (fine fraction) will cost much less.
- The latter material is a little more expensive than chipboard, but much more environmentally friendly, and there are completely no harmful formaldehyde fumes.
- The structure of MDF is very close to wood, and the coating is more wear-resistant than chipboard. MDF boards are used in the manufacture of rounded, wavy surfaces.
- Cabinets made from these materials are strong, durable, and resistant to moisture.
- If you need to move or re-install, you can be sure that they will withstand it.
Filling
Shelves, drawers, crossbars, pantographs (retractable clothes hangers) - this is the main part of the inside of a corner cabinet. If one of the sides is adjacent to the bedroom door, then in this part they make a dressing section with crossbars or a pantograph hung with trempels. This is done for the convenience of changing from outerwear to household items.
Violet tranquility encourages relaxation
If the wardrobe is installed in the hallway, then the presence of such compartments in the corner closet of the bedroom is not at all necessary.
Further filling of the corner wall can vary with various drawers, shelves and boxes for small items. Side compartments are often made open. They have shelves installed at different heights. They store items that are often in demand - perfumes, watches, other household appliances and all sorts of small items.
The filling can be arranged according to your taste - the main thing is to plan in advance
To store valuables in the corner cabinet, space is provided for installing a safe. Usually it is placed on a shelf at the eye level of a person of average height or at the very bottom. For things that are rarely used, there are distant sections in the back of the closet.
Ideas for placing a corner wardrobe in the bedroom
Wardrobes can be arranged in different ways in the bedroom, depending on the wishes of the residents and the volume of the load. Previously, many bedroom sets had two double-door wardrobes.
They were placed separately from each other behind the bedside tables on either side of the double bed.
- Many people preferred to place two cabinets along the wall in the corner, making one large four-door cabinet.
- This saved space in the room, things were in one place, it was more spacious and comfortable.
- Now it is possible to purchase corner wardrobes for the bedroom with a unique design that turns the wardrobe into a piece of art.
Even large cabinets, when properly selected, do not seem massive, but delight in their beauty.
Location in the room
When choosing a corner for furniture, take into account the layout of the room, the location of windows, radiators, and doorways. It should not block the light and prevent free entry into the room. It is also not placed near the heating system to prevent heating.
The location of the bed matters. Facades can be made mirrored completely or partially. According to popular belief, placing a bed in front of a mirror is wrong. Therefore, it is worth considering how to avoid this.

Style and internal structure of corner wardrobes for the bedroom

If the space allows, it is convenient to install a corner wardrobe with internal lighting, a fold-out ironing board, a specially equipped place for an iron, and a steam ironing system.
- Before choosing a corner wardrobe for your bedroom, you need to think about what will be located in it.
- Shelves are needed to store different types of linen, a rod is needed for clothes, and drawers are needed for socks and other small items.
- Therefore, inside a good spacious closet for the bedroom should contain elements of a chest of drawers, a wardrobe, and have a sufficient number of shelves.
Distribution of internal space
To prevent clutter from appearing inside your wardrobe over time, you need to know a few rules for distributing things in it. But, as already mentioned, this moment was planned in advance. Heavier items are stored at the bottom of the corner cabinet. Above, however, is the lightest and least used: out-of-season clothing. In the most accessible place, of course, everyday things are hung and folded: shirts, trousers, blouses, shelves with accessories, and so on.
Exterior decor of a corner wardrobe in the bedroom
The outer side of some modern corner cabinets is decorated with light shelves made of wood or glass on the sides. They contain souvenirs and books.
However, many prefer classic cabinets with external surfaces without protruding volumetric parts, but with an unusual, beautiful facade that attracts attention and looks.
- Wooden cabinets with carvings and embossing look stylish. The white cabinet matches other interior items and visually expands the space. The facade can be matte, glossy, mirrored, or with glass.
- Glossy, mirrored cabinets reflect beautiful decorative items and create an atmosphere of lightness, elegance, airiness, and freshness. Having an external mirror saves space in the room: there is no need to place it separately.

For example, sunset paintings with an amazing palette will calm you down and immerse you in pleasant dreams or memories; Bright nature can restore good mood and inspire.
A properly selected corner wardrobe for the bedroom can become a real source of pleasure due to its functionality and beauty, it will help save time, and ensure order and comfort in the house for many years.
Door leaves
Traditionally, corner cabinets use hinged doors that are easily attached to regular hinges. The disadvantage manifests itself when there is a shortage of usable bedroom space. If the bed is close to the closet, then the open doors may rest against it and not open completely.
Classic design with hinged doors
The way out of this situation is sliding panels, the two halves of which, moving, overlap each other. Modern parallel door sliding systems are almost silent and have a soft move.
