Layout
With skillful planning, a full-fledged wardrobe room can be placed in any room of the apartment, even the most compact. The type of layout can be selected in accordance with the type of premises and individual preferences, the following layouts of storage systems are distinguished:
- angular;
- linear
- n shaped;
- parallel.
The corner layout is suitable for any size of the room, as well as any type of dressing room - both open and closed. In accordance with the name, cabinets and shelves are located in the corner of the room. The visual zoning of such a wardrobe is made using sliding doors, if it is closed, or different from the rest of the room, by the type of design of the floor and wall surfaces.
For corner layouts, open shelves and hangers are often used, as well as corner drawers. To clothes on the shelves did not look messy, stylish baskets and wardrobe trunks are used. The corner layout is convenient in that it can occupy any free corner of the room, whether it be a corridor, a bedroom or a living room, regardless of the size of the area. Such a layout is especially relevant in the design of small wardrobe rooms.
A linear layout is used when placing a wardrobe in a niche or near a blank wall. At the same time, it can be separated from the rest of the room by sliding doors like a sliding wardrobe or in other ways:
- gypsum board partition with integrated door;
- tight curtain on the ledge.
Or the wardrobe can remain open, as often happens when decorating an apartment in the loft style. A home wardrobe, decorated with a P-shaped layout, is often found in long bedrooms, when both parts of the room are balanced by the division into a sleeping area, as well as a storage area with a partition or screen. With this method, the dressing room occupies three adjacent walls, one of them may even have a window - in this case, the wall is decorated with open shelves or low chests of drawers.
Layout in a parallel way involves the location of cabinets, shelves or hangers along two walls opposite each other. This method can be used if the room is spacious enough and wide, because it requires at least 50 cm for the convenience of opening cabinet doors or pulling out drawers located opposite each other. Different types of layouts are presented in the photo design projects of wardrobe rooms.
Filling
It is necessary to fill the wardrobe room with furniture and storage places in accordance with the functional affiliation:
- rods for outerwear must be present, located at least 1.5 meters above the floor;
- rods for dresses, shirts, blouses, located at a height of not less than 1 meter;
- the presence of scrubs is required;
- for storage of shoes, you can use open shelves or shoe racks with closed doors;
- drawers for storing linen, socks, small items of clothing;
- hats can be stored in baskets or drawers located on shelves;
- for storage of accessories you can provide hooks or small rods, as well as boxes.
Accordingly, the place of storage is chosen for the items of clothing: shoes should be located below, hats on the upper shelves, clothes - in the middle on bars, shelves or drawers.
Filling a small dressing room can be completed with a full-length mirror, as well as a bench, and if the room allows, you can place a small sofa, coffee or dressing table. Part of the dressing room is complemented by an ironing board attached to one of the walls of the cabinets. Thus, it is quite simple to do the filling of the wardrobe room with your own hands, purchasing components individually or as a single set.
Lighting and decoration
Any type of room with a dressing room should be equipped with good lighting. This means that there should be a lot of light, while it should not distort colors. An ideal option would be the presence of central lighting in the form of a chandelier, as well as spot lighting, organized by numerous small ceiling lights. Thus, a soft, diffused light that does not leave shaded areas. If the wardrobe is open, it is possible to install a light panel.
It is important that lighting fixtures illuminate each of the storage compartments.
The design of the open locker room should be made in accordance with the style direction of the rest of the interior. The presence of photos with examples of dressing rooms design will help determine the style. A closed dressing room leaves the will of imagination, but, given the functionality of the room, it is advisable to design it in the style of minimalism, classic or loft.

- the smaller the area of the room, the more open shelves and hangers there should be. Often, everything is done the other way around;
- if the furniture is purchased before the layout, as well as the size of the dressing room, is planned, it may simply not fit inside or fit in color, style;
- do not make out the dressing room with a color scheme or style that is completely opposite to the rest of the design of the living area;
- in order not to get lost in your dressing room, it is necessary at the planning stage to mark out the location of outerwear and the rest of the wardrobe, and also to separate the place for storing women's and men's clothes;
- the number of hangers and clothes rods should exceed the number of shelves and racks.
