The dressing room is a very convenient and useful «invention» of mankind. Every thing here lies in its place, which can extend their service life, and you can always find what you need, without rummaging through bulky cabinets, calmly measure it on and put it in place. It is not surprising that many women, and some men, dream of such a room. If you are one of these people, then this article is for you..
Let’s start with the premises. If you have purchased an open-plan apartment, there will be no special problems finding a room for a dressing room. You can also use a pantry or closet, and if there is no separate room, «cut off» a part of the room or corridor and place racks with sections or wall panels with shelves, rods for hangers there. If it was possible to find a separate room, then doors are put («accordion», swing, sliding «, if not, a partition is used. Usually for partitions or doors, wood panels, laminated chipboard, PVC panels and even glass are used. The use of mirrored partitions or doors visually will increase the space. Decoration of the dressing room, including doors and partitions, depends on the general style of housing.
How to fill the dressing room? First of all, you need to divide the room into zones for placing things. They differ in height and are divided into upper (above 190 cm), middle (60-190 cm) and lower (up to 60 cm from the floor). It is recommended to place things in the upper zone that are not worn very often. For example, winter hats, scarves, etc. can be removed there for the summer. Slightly lower — at a height of 130-190 cm — you can lay out infrequently used things and blankets for possible guests. The lower zone is mainly for shoes that are not often used, which are stored in drawers at a height of 25-40 cm. The middle zone, which occupies a height of 60-130 cm, is the best place for things that you constantly wear.
Most of the dressing room is usually made up of compartments where clothes are stored on hangers. Rods for hangers are installed at a height of 140-190 cm, moreover, a compartment for hats with a height of at least 17 cm and a depth of 24 cm is equipped above the rod.
It is advisable to store shoes on a shelf 35 cm deep and 10-45 cm high, which is located in the lower zone..
What if there is no separate dressing room? Take advantage of modular cabinet furniture, which will allow you to make a small dressing room in the bedroom or hallway. Today there are many companies that produce wardrobe furniture, and it is recommended to contact them to find what is right for your room.
As for the storage system, you can use a mesh one. To do this, a carrier rail is attached to the wall or partition, on which the components are freely hung. The guides can be shifted sideways, and their length and shape depends on the selected shelves.
