Corner cabinet design +75 photos

The design of the corner cabinet should correspond to the general stylistic decision of the room and organically merge into it. When choosing furniture, first of all they are guided by the dimensions of the room. Corner constructions are wardrobes. This is a modern model, the doors of which, as a rule, are moving apart. You will not find a corner cabinet with a hinged design as in outdated versions. The fact is that for such doors it is necessary to free up additional space that cannot be adapted for other purposes. Models of corner cabinets differ not only in the material of the execution of the facades, but also in form, design features. Let us examine in detail what types are considered popular and what are their advantages.

Corner wardrobe options

By the nature of the design corner cabinets are divided into two categories:

• Inline. They are made to order after careful measurements of the area of ​​the room where the furniture will be installed. Cabinets do not have a floor, ceiling and walls. When installing the frame in which the doors are located, mounted in the wall "tightly". The main advantage of this design is the effective use of space. Among the shortcomings note the impossibility of transportation to another apartment or move when you move.
• Corpus. Furniture is assembled from wooden "shields" as a designer. If necessary, the cabinet can be disassembled and transported to another place. When you change the design, it easily moves in assembled form. Corner corner cabinet has all the walls as standard. In height, it does not reach the ceiling, which is a minus, because the built-in structures use for storage the space along the entire height of the area reserved for them.

Also, corner cabinets are classified according to the forms:

• Triangular. The design (both case, and built-in) easily fits into any corner. The wardrobe occupies scanty space and does not “interfere” on the way of the household. It may not fit into the premises of non-standard forms, where the walls are angled different from 90 degrees. Triangular cabinets are the cheapest coupe models.
• Trapezoidal. The design slightly "protrudes" forward, therefore it is not suitable for small rooms. One of the protruding walls of the cabinet is parallel to the opposite wall.
• Radius (radial). Corner cabinets have concave or convex facades that resemble waves. One of the most popular modern models. The interior looks stylish and impressive.
• Pentagonal. Remotely similar to trapezoidal, but have an “extra” angle. Differ in big spaciousness.
• L-shaped. They are ordinary cabinet cabinets of two rectangular parts, which "converge" in the corner and repeat its shape.

When choosing an angular design, they are guided by its filling, the area of ​​the room, the general stylistic design, the color scheme and the materials from which the rest of the furniture is made. Only if you take into account all the nuances you can buy a coupe that will organically fit into the design of the room.

Design and materials of execution of facades

The “face” of any cabinet is its facades. In angular designs they are classified into two types:

• Single filling. Only one type of insert is placed in the aluminum frame;
• Combined facades. In the frame have "dividers". They are filled with inserts of various materials. The combinations depend on the ideas of the designer and can be very different.

All materials used for the manufacture of facades, can be divided into two groups:

• Tree and its derivatives;
• The remaining materials.

The first group includes:

• Solid wood (oak, beech, cherry, wenge). Differs in durability and durability. These advantages are reflected in the price of the finished product;
• Woody veneer. Ideally imitates natural material, it is absolutely eco-friendly. The veneer has a low cost compared to solid wood;
• Rattan and bamboo. Thin layers of natural wood of these species are fixed on a chipboard or MDF panels. They have an unusual texture;
• Fiberboard, chipboard, MDF and chipboard. All materials are made on the basis of wood waste with the addition of fastening substances. The most inexpensive is chipboard, and the most durable - MDF.

Other materials include:

• Glass. Looks elegant and stylish;
• Plastic. Refers to budget options;
• Lamkomat (matte finish) and lacobel (glass painted from the inside);
• Mirrors. From the inside they are covered with a protective film against mechanical damage;
• Decoracryl. Special material that is made of two thin acrylic panels. Between them put flowers, leaves or twigs.

Single facades are also decorated with dividing slats, but they are filled with the same type of inserts. This composition is used to create a geometric pattern.

Doors for corner cabinets

The doors of the corner cabinet are, in fact, its facade. In panel constructions, walls, floor and ceiling are made of relatively inexpensive materials, and they do not save on the “outer” side. In the combined options use the following composition types:

• Classical. In this case, MDF, chipboard, wood and mirrors are combined;
• Diagonal. Doors adorn the dividers, which are located at certain angles to each other;
• Sector. In this embodiment, the doors are divided into many squares, each of which is filled with a separate material in various combinations;
• Geometric. On the doors are rectangles, triangles, trapezoids and other shapes;
• Wave. Dividers are smooth, curved lines.

In expensive styles, doors are decorated with genuine or artificial leather. Also they can be decorated with a panorama: paper deposited on the glass from the inside or vegetative pattern etched on a matte surface.

Filling cabinet corner configuration

The organization of storage spaces will depend on several factors:

• Cabinet dimensions;
• Estimated amount of things;
• Purpose of the components of the structure.

Internal filling is usually completed from elements of several types. They are assembled as a designer at the planning stage of the future cabinet. Combinations can be very different, but they are based on only four elements:

• Drawers;
• Mesh shoe storage;
• Open shelves;
• Sections for placing things on hangers with a horizontal bar.

For example, if the owners prefer to hang things on their hanger, then this area is maximally expanded, leaving much less space for the rest.

Some models of the L-shaped construction are additionally decorated with an open storage system consisting of shelves on one of the side walls.

Examples of corner cabinets in the interior

Corner wardrobes due to the variety of designs can organically integrate into the design of any room. Large models are suitable for spacious rooms. Narrow cabinets that look like pencil cases will not “eat up” a lot of space in tiny rooms. They are used to store clothes, books, household appliances and utensils.
It is important to know. To make furniture as inconspicuous as possible, and to use a larger room, use classic models of corner cabinets. Some of their facades are traditionally decorated with mirrors. The reflective surface will visually enlarge the room.

The hallway

In the hallway, the closet is a necessity, so as not to clutter other places for storage of clothes with outer clothing, it is hung inside the construction of an angular type. For small and cramped rooms there are triangular options. If the corridor runs into a blank wall, this furniture is placed under it. As an experimental option, the cabinet can be placed near the entrance door, if there is enough space from it to the nearest corner. The design should not only match the overall color palette, but also be in harmony with the rest of the furniture.

Usually in the hallway additionally have puffs or benches for pereobuvaniya. Furniture design materials should be in line with each other. Traditionally, the facades of the cabinet are made of mirrors, so that guests and hosts can evaluate their appearance before going outside. The filling section is dominated by a section with a bar for clothes on the hangers and “shoe” shelves. The latter can generally eliminate the need to install a cabinet in the hallway.
It is important to know. In some models, there are original designs of shelves. Folding mechanisms that are easy to open and allow you to organize a special order of storing shoes are considered to be a fashionable solution.

Living room

Cabinets in the living room are placed quite rarely. Now they are trying to move this piece of furniture to the bedroom, because the fashion for headsets, which are full of books and crystal, has long passed. In exceptional cases, corner cabinets are installed in this room. Mainly choose trapezoidal, radial and L-shaped models. The latter can be supplemented by a niche for TV, which will kill two birds with one stone. Open shelves on the side are used as a bookcase. Corner wardrobe is usually purchased to match the sofa or other large design objects in the interior (table, chairs) so that it does not stand out in the overall stylistic picture and does not look "lonely".

Child room

In the nursery usually use multifunctional furniture. This practice applies not only to rooms where two or more children live. Usually a small room is allocated for a child if the parents live in an apartment. On the market are complex corner models that are part of the headset. It has not only a storage area, but also a niche, a workplace, and sometimes even a built-in bed. Virtually every corner cabinet design for a nursery has open side shelves on one of the walls. They are intended to accommodate toys. The colors are dominated by soothing shades that are combined with a pair of bright accents. This idea is easy to implement in the combined facades.

Bedrooms

In the bedroom, a corner wardrobe often serves as a wardrobe. For these purposes, built-in structures are ideal. In the rest room, usually all the furniture is selected according to a neutral-quiet color scheme. This practice is especially relevant for tiny rooms. In tones prevail:

• White and blue;
• Soft shades of brown (sand, beige);
• Pink with white;
• Gray and a pair of bright blue, purple accents;
• Yellow, green and white again.

All these colors are found in the range of bedroom furniture. In the classic versions, corner cabinets are assembled from MDF and chipboard panels that imitate light-colored wood. Organically blends into minimalism, high-tech, modern and Scandinavian style white furniture decorated with glass or mirror. The “floating” bed harmonizes with the white, air-closet (suspended structure). The radial type is combined with round-shaped beds. The wardrobe is usually placed at the nearest wall next to the bed so that the owners can easily take the necessary thing.

Conclusion

Lack sq.m. - the scourge of modern design and at the same time a challenge for a professional designer. Corner structures were designed to save space and decorate custom rooms with taste. About 25 years ago, the first models of such cabinets were brought to Russia for testing, in order to test the market and identify the presence of demand.

The domestic consumer, unbalanced by spacious apartments, appreciated the novelty and after 10 years the corner-type structures began to be actively produced in our country. They gradually replaced the pedestals, dressers and outdated "walls", because the new furniture was spacious. Corner wardrobes became a real salvation for “cluttered up”, cramped rooms and a no less stylish solution in larger apartments.
