Wardrobe rooms of small sizes: 31 photos

Not everyone is lucky enough to have a spacious walk-in closet the size of a regular bedroom or slightly smaller. Do not be upset, someone does not have it at all - it is simply impossible to allocate precious meters. But the room is necessary, even necessary - there are a lot of things, even more accessories.

So it’s better to have such a small room than not to have it at all. And to develop a project, and then to realize the design of a small dressing room, you can easily even in Khrushchev for 2-3 sq.m.

This question is asked by women, girls who cannot allocate a decent room for clothing. That is why they go to extremes and put wardrobes, bedside tables and shelving.

But even a small dressing room is still preferable, and here's why.

  • The apartment will become much more spacious. After all, cabinets, chests of drawers, shelves for shoes, hooks for bags and hats will not stand along the walls. All things will lie in a specially designated place.
  • There will be more order. Even if you accidentally throw a thing on the back of the sofa, sooner or later it will be transported to the dressing room.
  • Entering the dressing room, things are immediately visible and there is no need to rummage through narrow shelves, turning everything upside down.
  • Here you can use all the walls up to the ceiling, and not the space that the cabinet dimensions allow.
  • In the dressing room itself, instead of cabinets, you can install open shelves, put chests of drawers at the bottom, and a vertical hanger in the corner. Both a mirror and an ironing board, which previously peeked out from behind the door, will fit here.
  • Things that are neatly laid out on shelves or hanging freely on trempels, as practice has shown, retain their original appearance longer.

Choice of layout

A dressing room or dressing room in the English manner can be organized with your own hands in a separate room, giving it a balcony, closet, and in the bedroom itself, fencing off a corner. Sometimes, for the sake of such convenience, a bathroom is combined, and the vacant meters are used for what was intended.

The layout of the dressing room is chosen depending on the place where it will be.

  • corner. Cabinets, racks and shelves are installed along two adjacent shelves. The dressing room can be with a mirror and a vertical hanger in the corner. The third side is a screen or sliding doors. Such a dressing room can be arranged in the bedroom, and the bed can be placed as a headboard to this partition.
  • L-shaped. One side is the entrance. The other two are formed by adjacent walls. The fourth is an additional wall. This is a piece of furniture - racks with closed rear walls.
  • U-shaped. This is the most optimal layout, since three walls are used. Boxes and racks, rods in two rows (the top row of clothes is lowered by a pantograph), shelves, drawers - you can store everything you want in them. In addition, such a layout will also adjust the bedroom.
  • Parallel arrangement. Racks and shelves are built into opposite walls.
  • Linear. The difference from the previous one is that only one wall is involved. Dressing is somewhat reminiscent of a closet, but without division into zones and without traditional furniture content.

The last two options can hardly be called dressing rooms in the full sense of the word. But if the task is simply to compactly place shoes, clothing and accessories, then why not.

We select a style

A dressing room is a place that stylistically should resonate with the room next to which it is located, for example, with a bedroom.

Agree, the design project of a classic dressing room in a rustic bedroom, or high-tech shelving and the classic furnishings of the bedchamber, will look ridiculous.

However, having beaten the same racks, having played with the color of the finish, dissonance can be avoided.

  • Minimalism, loft, hi-tech. These are racks with metal supports and the same or glass shelves.
  • You can get closer to the classics if the frame and shelves are made of wood. But glass shelves will also work.

Dressing rooms have their own interior style - boiserie. This is when the shelves are attached not to the frame installed along the walls, but to the wall itself. Practical, since the room is not weighed down by vertical racks.

But not every wall, especially drywall, will support the weight of the shelves along with the contents. Then you can put special cabinet modules for dressing rooms, samples of which are in furniture catalogs.


Arrangement of a dressing room

In a small dressing room, ergonomics are important, so choosing furniture for it is especially scrupulous.

The design is stationary or rod (racks).

  • Cabinets under the ceiling without doors - ideal.
  • Racks with compartments of different heights and widths are also a great solution. The depth is selected taking into account the purpose of the department - for shoes or accessories, for folded things or for outerwear.
  • Pull-out lockers with a bottom for underwear or crossbars for scarves, trousers.
  • Storage system for coats, blouses, jackets. It is estimated that a height of 0.5-0.7 meters is enough for short clothes on a coat hanger. For outerwear, dresses, you will need already 1.5 m. Since we use the entire height of the walls, it is reasonable to place these two departments on top of each other.
  • You will need shelves for bags (but they can also be hung on a vertical hanger, the hooks of which run in a spiral), crossbars or shelves for shoes, shelves for folded clothes (sweaters, T-shirts, bed linen, etc.), drawers for gloves.

It is worth leaving a place to store umbrellas and an ironing board. And put baskets on empty shelves.

  • Light colors of finishes and contrasting furniture look good.
  • Choose practical material.
  • Shoe boxes, extra covers, bags are not needed. Them in the trash.
  • Sort out clothes carefully. Maybe it's time to part with some.
  • Lighting is predominantly spot. A chandelier in a small dressing room will look bulky.
  • Consider ventilation. There is no window, so access to fresh air is limited. Don't wall to ceiling.
  • If the dressing room has a window, then make sure that the sunlight does not spoil things.
  • Mirrors, glossy or chrome surfaces will make the room bigger and brighter.

Remember that the Dressing Room is not a pantry, so litter it regularly. And then it will be a stylish and functional room.
