How to make a dressing room in a small room: 12 nuances - INMYROOM
Dressing rooms are rapidly gaining popularity. And this is understandable. More things can be placed in the dressing room, it is more convenient to look for them here and you can try on right away. But if the apartment is small, do you really have to give up this possibilities? Not at all necessary. Let's Note that when choosing dressing room, we get rid of bulky cabinets, walls and chests of drawers, which take up less, if not more, space. In addition, modern wardrobe systems allow you to create a small smart dressing room even for 3 squares. The main thing is to think things over carefully. Let's get it straight Now.
1. Registration address
In a small apartment, as a rule, each square meter and yet you can find a place for a dressing room. Activate the empty niche or closet. The latter is in many standard apartments. Highlight in room corner or fence off under dressing area along the wall. If the room is elongated, feel free to “bite off” the strip. Space will acquire a more regular square shape, and a new functional room will appear in the apartment.
2. Design project
Start with design project. At this stage, it is necessary to take into account all the details: the size of the room, materials used, stylistic decision, filling and lighting. You will have to look through the catalogs, look photographs and think carefully how many things do you have, how and in what storage is best. I'll probably have to do a few sketches. future dressing room with various options for placing internal filling and repeatedly discuss them with friends or professionals.
3. Borders
You can hide the dressing room behind plasterboard partitions. Also for building additional walls use frosted or clear glass. A lighter option is to fence off the dressing room with blackout curtains. Makes the task even easier a light screen made of matte translucent fabric or a mirrored screen. And It doesn't have to be all the way to the ceiling. And for the most accurate and pedantic, you can consider the option of an open dressing room. Conditional start of the zone can be designated as a chest of drawers or a pouffe.
Open wardrobe systems - stylish and interesting, but if you want to flaunt your fashion collections, perfect order must be observed in the exposition. Like in a boutique, you have to sort out all the things by colors, texture, style, so that the clothing exhibition becomes a highlight rooms.
4. Sesame, open up!
If the dressing room is very small, then the width of the door should be at least 80 cm. This will provide freedom of movement and comfortable access to any of the items. Swing doors in conditions of space saving are not the best option. A compartment doors or accordion doors are a very suitable alternative. Material for doors can be varied: wood, plastic, glass, mirror. Also louvered doors and fabric curtains are popular.
5. Stylistic decision
A small wardrobe is part of the room, so the style of its design must match the overall design of the room. Do not limit the zone to others flooring or contrast with the color scheme of the room. Color and the texture of wardrobe furniture should also match the overall style.
Dressing room - one of the design elements of the room. If opening its doors, there is the feeling that the room has become larger, brighter, more interesting and filled with new life means the project was a success.
6. Inside contents
The “stuffing” for the dressing room can be made to order or you can buy the filling for the dressing rooms in the furniture hypermarket. Standard the package, as a rule, includes multi-level bars with hangers for dresses, suits, shirts and outerwear, mesh baskets for bedding and towels, tie brackets, compartments for trousers and skirts, closed drawers for the bottom linen, shoe racks, drawer racks, hooks and rods.
If space is very limited, plan as many open spaces as possible. shallow shelving. However, include several closed drawers in the project. First, they protect and keep the most delicate, for example, underwear. Secondly, wardrobe systems, including part of the closed drawers, look more stylish and elegant.
Shelves, racks and drawers can be placed in the room L-shaped, U-shaped or parallel. For a small rectangular dressing room is the best option - L-shaped location.
It is also important to take into account the division of the dressing room into conditional zones. The dressing room can be divided into 3 zones: lower (height up to 0.6 m from the floor), middle (height from 0.6 to 2 m) and upper (from 2 to 2.5 m).
In the lower area it is convenient to place shoes, vacuum cleaner, iron, tools. Here, in special closed boxes or drawers can store linen and jersey. The middle one is responsible for storing things everyday use: coat hangers, trousers, skirts, belts, ties, hats, gloves and handbags. The upper zone is usually used for storing out-of-season clothes and rarely things used. For example, there may be a skateboard, skates, Christmas decorations and a waiting "high point" suitcase.
7. Design hacks
Creating such a serious project on 3 squares, do not avoid design hacks. On shoe boxes you can do photo stickers. So find the right shoes and boots will be much easier. Boxes with You can sign with different small things. Hats are sometimes hung on clothespins to linen rope. Looks stylish! The pantograph bar will help you easily get things, stored in the upper zone. Special fabric pockets will become a home for necessary little things. And for storing handbags, you can use special cases-pockets.
8. Lighting scenarios
The dressing room needs to be illuminated on several levels. as top lighting in a small dressing room is most convenient to use compact ceiling lights or built-in spotlights that are mounted on around the perimeter of the room. You can also install the backlight on individual drawers and shelves. First, it is significant will simplify the search for this or that thing, and secondly, it will make the room more spacious and smarter. For these purposes, it is best suitable for LED spotlights. They are economical, reliable, look luxurious and modern. But from halogen lamps in the dressing room is better refuse. They are heated to high temperatures and in a limited, filled things in space, can be fire hazardous.
9. Fitting room
It's great if there is a mirror in the dressing room. big wall-mounted or attached to the wall. You can immediately try on evaluate the selected set. But if the size of the room of this option is not leaves, you can hang a mirror on the door outside. Or let it be the door mirror sliding design. And you can arrange a "fitting room" at the exit of their dressing area by installing there is a large mirror in a beautiful frame. Nearby you can put an elegant chair or a pouffe for trying on shoes.
10. Special Atmosphere
Create a sense of beauty and comfort in your dressing room. Throw on the floor is a fluffy rug. Buy beautiful chests, elegant baskets and designer storage boxes Arrange clothes by color and style. Choose a center exposition, its "chip", a source of special pride, whether it be a collection of shoes, hats, handbags or dresses and focus your attention on it by directing a stream of light on it.
Take a closer look at how the stands with clothes and shelves with accessories are arranged in your favorite boutiques. Maybe you can arrange something similar in your dressing room? For example, bags can be hung on a straight horizontal metal rod. It is both comfortable and beautiful. On a free shelf, find a place for a small bouquet or a couple of fashion magazines. On the mirror, write with a marker or even with lipstick an inspirational phrase or a line from your favorite poem.
11. Important point
it is stored a lot, it is important to take care of the ventilation of the room. Location shelves should allow air to circulate freely between things. room you need to ventilate regularly, but it is better to install a small built-in a fan, like in a bathroom, which will turn on at a certain interval. However, if in the dressing room louvered doors or curtains are installed, this is optional.
12. Reset
The dressing room needs special care. Necessary make sure that each thing has its place. At the same time, you need to regularly review content.

1. Use your kitchen to store your jewelry. Beautifully designed small cups and saucers can be great containers for your jewelry and bijouterie.
You can store them in the drawer or display them. A cake stand, for example, or small food trays can be great for storing cosmetics or your perfume.
2. Recommendations for arranging a dressing room. Scarves, tied to the simplest of rod holders, will not only look great in your wardrobe, but will also help you quickly find your favorite models that you wear most often.
Even if there are no clear changes of seasons in your area of residence, there are still clothes that you rarely wear - you need to hide them away, put the most popular items in your looks and accessories in the foreground.

A soft shade of pink that you would never use to decorate the walls of a large room, it will look great in a modest dressing room.
In such an environment, it is not only pleasant to store clothes, but it is also interesting to select new looks.

Go beyond that and use open shelving as shoe storage systems. Purchase several wicker baskets to store your accessories in, sorting them by color or style, whichever makes it easier and faster for you to find them.
Organizing your belts, scarves and other additional wardrobe items will not only save usable space in the dressing room, but also save you time.
A small ottoman will not take up much space, but it will be very useful when you put on your shoes.

Place this coat hanger right in your bedroom with only the most popular pieces on it. If there are ready-made sets of clothes on the counter, then you can save a lot of time in the morning when you are going to work.
7. Use doorknobs as curtain holders. An interesting design technique for small dressing rooms with small cabinets is the replacement of doors with curtains.

Add some glamor to your walk-in closet with a shiny, original design handle.
