How to equip a dressing room with his hands

Proper organization of space in the house - an important component of comfort. Every thing in the house should have its own place, and especially clothes and shoes. Rational and well-designed closet will allow you to accurately and beautifully put all the pieces of clothing, and in rooms of the house will always prevail order and cleanliness. In this article, we'll show you how to properly equip a dressing room.

Device dressing: site selection, layout

There are 3 main types of dressing room layout:

1. Corner layout means that the room is located in a free corner. Corner wardrobe small size often can be found in bedrooms, hallways, and sometimes even in children's rooms.
2. The wardrobe P-shaped layouts have a square or rectangular shape, and the shelves and the rods are installed in them along the three walls. The role of the fourth wall, as a rule, plays the door. Such a dressing room can be arranged in the living room, in the hall or in the bedroom, the main thing is to have a sufficient space. The P-shaped layout is very convenient, as it allows you to most effectively use each centimeter area. In this kind, the cabinet will fit a lot of things, the doors can be used as a shirt and mirrors. In addition, the zoning of the room on the men's and female halves will allow the inhabitants of the house to place their clothes with maximum convenience.
3. Linear layout is relevant in small apartments, where there is no suitable room for the location of a full-fledged dressing room. In fact, the dressing room of this layout is a narrow long cabinet installed along the wall of the room.

Considering the ideas of creating a wardrobe room, first of all you need to choose for it a suitable place in the home. Let's describe more than several such options:

1. There are cases where the apartment is planned in such a way that in some of its rooms there are so-called "appendicitis". They are small niches in the walls, which are often not considered by the owners as a useful area, respectively, are not used effectively. It is in such appendicitis that you can make a small dressing room.
2. Storeroom is another place in the apartment that you can find more worthy use than just a warehouse of unnecessary things. Make a dressing room in the storage room is very simple, for this you need to remove unused items from the room and equip the room with the necessary elements for storing clothes and shoes.
3. If there are no storage rooms in the house, neither appendixes, for the dressing room you will have to allocate a place in the residential room. In small areas, it is best to occupy the angular zones, a part of a room can be distinguished in spacious apartments: bedrooms, hallway, nursery. The angular layout allows you to effectively use unnecessary space, for example, "dead zones" between two closely located doors, two windows or a window and a door.
4. A good idea for the dressing room is its arrangement on the balcony or on the loggia. To do this, part of the glazing is replaced with an opaque material, as well as in the walls of the wardrobe layer of the insulation, so that in winter it was better stored and to wear them was more pleasant.
5. You can make a dressing room in the hallway or in the corridor if their area allows. But the most popular place is the bedroom, because it is in it that we often dress and put ourselves in order. In a large bedroom, a separate zone can be distinguished for this purpose by placing the plasterboard septum and trimming it with finishing material. To install doors, equip reinforced racks. Sewing the wardrobe from the inside is not necessarily, so as not to spend extra centimeters, but the open metal products are convenient to use to install the shelves. Instead of plasterboard sheets, you can use chipboard or MDF. These options are good in that they will not require shtlocking and finishing finish, as they themselves are considered decorative facing. The only nuance is that the plates will have to pick up in accordance with the style and color design of the room.

Features of the wardrobe arrangement

In the dressing room, each centimeter area needs to be used. Even before you fill the room with fittings for clothing storage, determine the composition and number of things that are planned to be placed there. Based on this, calculate the size of the shelves and niches. When arranging a dressing room, create several zones to hide things there by frequency of use.

Different systems for storing clothing and shoes will fill the dressing room:

1. The mesh or cellular system is a carrier rack attached to the wall on which a variety of elements are mounted: shelves, compartments, boxes, and the like. Such a system today is considered a very popular option due to its dynamicity. All of its details can be changed in places, rearrange, supplement something new. Such a system will fit into the room of any size and configuration, because, in fact, it resembles a designer from which you can collect anything. Mesh systems are widely used not only in the dressing room, but also in storage rooms, cabinets and other storage rooms. If necessary, the design can be expanded or cutting, and you can dismantle and transfer to another place.
2. Those who pay a lot of attention the design of the dressing room, the mesh systems decorated with natural wood are suitable. With the same functionality and practicality, they will look more prestigious and attractive.
3. Unlike a cellular system, a natural wood, the design of the chipboard will be much cheaper. This budget option is suitable for those who want to create in the room comfort for reasonable money. Wardrobe with drawers and shelves made of chipboard looks textured, natural and heat, but in practicality and convenience is inferior to mesh systems. When creating such a design, you need to foresee and plan the placement of all elements of the room, since it will be problematic to change something subsequently.

For ease of storage of things in the dressing room, a variety of shelves, stalls, hangers, hooks, baskets, pantographs, drawers and other accessories will help to place clothing and shoes with maximum practicality and comfort. Very comfortable elements are retractable hangers and rods, which are often used to fill small wardrobe rooms. Pantograph is a special retractable bar, which can be omitted or lifted to the uppermost tiers of the design to hide there the unreasonable things. Pantographs are extremely convenient to use, they can be embedded in any wardrobe, and only the high cost is considered to be the only minus.

Thinking the design of the wardrobe room, pay attention not only to the functionality of parts, but also on their appearance. Today, decorative baskets and shelves decorated with wood, textiles, straw weaving, etc. are very popular. They look much more attractive than ordinary mesh details, and the decor can always be chosen in accordance with the stylistic direction of the interior.

Baskets and shelves in the dressing room are both stationary and sliding. The second option is much more convenient, therefore it is much more used. In the retractable basket, find the desired element of clothing is much easier, and for greater comfort, some baskets even equip the wheels. The racks that have a dressing room are equipped, if possible, must move, so that it is possible to install them at an optimal height.

For the storage of shoes in the dressing room, special shelves "Jubberry", for ties, trousers and belts in the room should also be present special hangers.

If the sizes of the dressing room allow, it can be saved not only by clothes and shoes, but also some household items: a vacuum cleaner, iron, ironing board, etc. For these items, it is also desirable to highlight a special place, for example, for an ironing board, you can equip a narrow niche near the wall, and for the iron make a separate shelf.

Zoning a dressing room

Regardless of the size, any wardrobe room is preferably divided into zones. As a rule, it is distinguished by three:

1. The lower area of \u200b\u200bthe room is designed to save those things that are used less frequently. It is convenient to place in this place the drawers where you will hide bedding and a variety of trifles. Often in the lower zone equip the storage space for shoes. If you decide to allocate a place for shoes not in the hallway, namely in the dressing room, try to make the shelves high enough, at least 45 cm. It is such an indicator of height to store women's boots, not climbing their top.
2. The middle zone serves to store the most frequently used clothing. Here there are rods with hangers, shelves, retractable boxes. The rods in the dressing room can be mounted in parallel or perpendicular to the wall, the choice of the option largely depends on the depth of the cabinet. Mount the rods at such a height, so that the distance from it to the floor was equal to the longest thing. As a rule, such a distance is 1.5-1.8 m. In a large wardrobe, you can make a lifting mechanism, so that the shoulders with clothes rose almost under the very ceiling. It is worth such a mechanism that is not suiced, besides, it does not withstand such loads as a stationary rod. As for the shelves and drawers, they should be equipped with eye level or just below, so that you always see what is inside. For a better view, you can use boxes with a transparent plastic fronton or wire basket. Wire structures are good, so allowing things to constantly ventilate. In the middle zone of the dressing room you can hang hooks. It is not worth constantly keeping on them, because it is stretched, but for temporary use, for example, when changing, they are very comfortable.
3. The top area is designed to hide temporarily unnecessary clothing, hats, caps and other hats. As a rule, such a zone is equipped under the most ceiling, and access to it is provided with the help of a staircase. For storage of hats, it is provided for shelves with a height of more than 20 cm and at least 25 cm deep here. Here it is also appropriate to use drawers where small items can be folded. In some rooms, the upper zone is equipped with shelves for saving off-season shoes.

Wardrobe must be equipped with a ventilation system to provide clothing long service life. If the room has sufficient dimensions, there is enough space for free air access. But if in the dressing room closely and things are stored close to each other, it is better to artificially create an exhaust ventilation system. Remember that the humidity spoils clothes, gives it an unpleasant smell, reduces the service life. In such a room, if it allows its dimensions, it is better to create a special zone for wet clothing and shoes and make separate ventilation there.

Doors in the dressing room

If the dressing room is equipped as a separate room, it must be equipped with a door. Doors should be selected, which will fit well in style in the overall interior of the dwelling. It is also desirable that the door canvas looked attractive not only outside, but also inside the room.

Modern manufacturers offer a huge range of products. Today, mirror surfaces are very popular, which can be equipped with completely transparent or matte glass, and may contain any drawing. The doors with a reflective surface are not only attractive, but also practical because they allow you to save money and room space on the installation of a separate mirror.

Alternative to the mirror doors will be wooden, rathang or glass surfaces. Doors with stained glass pattern or made of matte glass look stylish and expensive. In the production of such structures, plastic is often used, which can be given any color and texture, apply a beautiful pattern. In large wardrobe doors can be combined and combine several shades and types of materials.

Door systems on the modern construction market are represented by two options, they are steel or aluminum. Aluminum is considered a more expensive analogue, but they are silent, attractive outwardly and work very smoothly. Dressing doors are also classified by type of construction, highlighting such types:

• sliding;
• swing;
• doors in the form of harmonica.

The choice of option depends on the size of the room and personal preferences. For example, for swing systems you need to have a lot of space in the room, while sliding doors can be installed even in a narrow and close room.

Wardrobe lighting

Lighting in the dressing room plays a very important role, so you need to envisage the locations of the lamps already at the planning stage. Very often, ceiling lights are used in such premises, which allow you to view even the most remote corners of the upper shelves. The backlight can also be equipped with walls, so that the contents of the shelves and boxes can be seen located in the middle and lower wardrobe zones. In this case, the lamps can be embedded directly into the boxes or place them on the brackets along the walls.

In the wardrobe corner configuration, lamps on clothespins are often used. They are convenient because allowing to change the angle of inclination, directing the rays into the right place. Luminaires in the dressing room are desirable to equip the automatic switching and shutdown system - so you will save electricity.

For such rooms it is better to choose LED lighting. With sufficient brightness, such lamps are not heated, therefore are fireproof. The most bright are halogen lamps, but it is impossible to place them near clothes, as they are warmed up to very high temperatures.
