White corner cabinets

In small apartments, functionality of furniture comes first. White corner cabinets are just such an option that allows you to use space as efficiently as possible.

Many designers use white furniture in their projects. Corner cabinet options in such interiors are not uncommon. This is due to their undeniable advantages over models of other shapes and colors:

• Compactness and spaciousness. Corner wardrobe helps to significantly save living space. Such models capture the space at the junction of the walls, which is usually not used at all. At the same time, even compact models can accommodate a large number of clothes and other things.
• Psychological effect. According to psychologists, white creates an atmosphere of calm and serenity. It is also associated with cleanliness and freshness, charges with positive emotions.

• Visual expansion of space. A white corner wardrobe can visually make the room more spacious. This is facilitated by the color that reflects the streams of light, and the shape of the furniture, which brightens two walls at once.
• Style. White furniture in any design looks gorgeous. Modern manufacturers offer options for every taste. This also applies to sizes, and style, and design, and methods of decoration. You can choose a luxurious baroque model, a laconic wardrobe in the spirit of minimalism or an original version in the modern style. It all depends on your interior, the type of room and personal preference.

• Ease of combination with other shades. Snow-white furniture can be easily combined with other colors. Such a wardrobe will perfectly fit into a room with neutral shades (gray, brown, beige) and a bright environment (with blue, purple, pink and other tones).

Recently, they have become very popular glossy facades... Furniture, shimmering in the rays of light, looks expensive and even solemn. In addition to external gloss, gloss also has a practical function. Like mirrored surfaces, such furniture reflects light, creating the illusion of additional space.

However, the enchanting shimmering gloss also has a drawback. Such facades need regular maintenance and a very careful attitude. Finger marks often remain on glossy surfaces and should be removed with a soft cloth. With careless use, scuffs and scratches may appear on the furniture.

Specialty furniture polish products are available today. But when buying, it is important to pay attention to whether a particular product is suitable for the care of white furniture. Also, never use aggressive products with abrasive particles to clean the cabinet.

Furniture with a matte surface less whimsical. At the same time, in the appropriate design, such cabinets look no worse than glossy models. The choice of one of the two options depends only on personal taste.

According to the type of doors, cabinets have differences:

• Cabinets with compartment doors very popular. Thanks to the roller mechanism, the doors move smoothly to the side, requiring no space to open them.
• Swing models can have an interesting design, be decorated with beautiful handles, but they are not so convenient. The doors of such cabinets swing open forward. Because of this, it is necessary to count on additional free space so that other objects do not interfere with the opening of the doors.

In terms of the shape and type of the design itself, the cabinets differ:

• L-shaped models most in demand. Parts of such a product are located along adjacent walls, forming an angle of 90 degrees. Usually one half of the cabinet is longer than the other. The edges of the product can be either straight or rounded. They are often in the form of open shelves designed for souvenirs and useful things. For small apartments, this option is considered the most successful.
• Diagonal models when closed, they resemble a triangle. Inside, they are very deep and roomy. Usually, a mirror is installed on the facade of such a cabinet to visually increase the space.

• Trapezoidal options are similar to the previous type of constructions. The only difference is that when closed, the cabinet has a trapezoidal shape.
• Five-walled - the most massive models. From the name it is clear that such a cabinet consists of five straight parts. Such options are appropriate only in spacious rooms. The spaciousness of the model allows you to use it as a mini-dressing room. The modeling of the interior space is not limited by anything other than size.
• Radius cabinets differ in smooth shapes. The bend can be concave, convex, or even wave-shaped. The absence of sharp corners makes such furniture safe, which is especially important for families with small children. And the unusual shape makes such products original even with minimal decor.

Depending on what kind of things the cabinet is intended for storing, it can have a different external shape and internal filling.

• For clothes a wardrobe is usually purchased. Inside there can be a hanger bar and various shelves. The contents of such furniture are usually hidden from prying eyes. Models with a mirror perform not only the function of visually increasing the space, but also allow you to evaluate the chosen wardrobe without leaving the closet.

• Book corner models are usually made of wood. They have a laconic design and many shelves covered with glass. Some options include document boxes as well as open side shelves for souvenirs.
• For storing collectible tableware and porcelain the display cabinet is intended. It can be completely glass or have closed drawers at the bottom. As a rule, such models are very elegant.

For the manufacture of white corner cabinets, I use a variety of materials:

• Wood. Solid wood wardrobe is the most expensive option. He is the most practical, reliable and solid. And its absolute environmental friendliness is an undoubted plus for many people. However, it should be borne in mind that the array increases not only the cost, but also the weight of the furniture. In addition, without proper treatment, wood is subject to deformation due to temperature extremes or high levels of humidity.

• MDF. Products made from this material are more affordable. At the same time, the quality of the furniture is at a decent level. Such cabinets are strong, durable and completely safe for people and animals. Models made of MDF can have a wood texture (for example, in the color "bleached oak"), or they can be covered with a special film with a matte or glossy surface.

• Chipboard. This material is the most budgetary. Manufacturers often combine it with MDF.

• Glass, mirror, metal, plastic. These materials are used to decorate products and create accessories.

In order to choose a product, you need to pay attention to many factors.

Before buying, decide what kind of things you need a wardrobe to store and where it will be located. The size of the future purchase, its design and internal content depends on this. Think about what shelves and drawers you need, and in what quantity, whether you need a hanger bar and other filling elements.

Corner cabinet can be cabinet or built-in. The second option saves even more space. Usually such models are made to order and used to decorate a small dressing room.

When choosing furniture, be sure to consider the style of the room. The wardrobe should blend harmoniously into a single concept.

If furniture is selected for a room decorated in a "palace" style, it should be as luxurious as the entire interior. Curly legs, carved volumetric ornaments, exquisite patterns, gilding and other details in the spirit of the Baroque are acceptable here.

Modern models are varied. The aesthetics of minimalism are expressed in glossy facades and an almost complete absence of decor. The originality of the model can be given by a combination of white with other colors (more often with black), illumination, unusual shapes (radius options).

The Art Nouveau style is reflected in the ornaments on the facades and mirrors, the unusual arrangement of open shelves and other interesting elements. Photo printing is also popular. It can be a photo of nature, flowers, animals, graphic drawings.

If the room is decorated in bright colors, it is better to choose a solid white wardrobe. If the decoration of the walls and floor is light enough, then you can highlight the furniture by choosing black and white colors, photo printing, drawings or gilding.

The texture can be matte, glossy or wood-like. The last option in a snow-white color is especially relevant for the Provence style. If you want something more natural, you can choose the shade "bleached oak". Depending on the manufacturer, this color can be either light beige or milky cream.

When buying an item from a store, consider it carefully. Check the smoothness and clarity of the mechanisms, the quality of fittings, coatings. When placing an order via the Internet, first read the reviews of the owners of the furniture of the selected manufacturer. Try to choose only trusted companies that have established themselves in the market.

A white corner wardrobe with glossy fronts blends harmoniously into a small, classic living room. Gilding with sophisticated patterns gives the model a laconic design a sophisticated look. It harmonizes with the frames of paintings, and with the decoration of the door, and with the metal of the chandelier.

The contemporary design in Art Nouveau style is adorned with an original black and white model. Despite the light walls, the cabinet does not appear faded. On the contrary, black staggered elements add zest to the interior. A chest of drawers and a bedside table, made in the same minimalistic design, complete the composition. Curtains and bedspread in purple tones dilute the atmosphere with bright colors.

If the wallpaper turned out to be too dark, and in the room you want to create an atmosphere of tenderness and romance, a glossy wardrobe with "openwork" patterns will come to the rescue. Rhinestone handles add a touch of glamor. A snow-white fluffy carpet and a light door are the finishing touches that brighten the atmosphere.

In the bedroom of a young football player, a corner wardrobe with a picture of a ball at the stadium will be very useful. Football star posters, a green grass carpet and an original ball-shaped chair create a unique style and mood.

In a small hallway, an elegant corner cabinet looks neat and stylish.Shelves for small items and souvenirs, open hangers for outerwear, closed compartments and mezzanines - everything is thought out to the smallest detail.
