Have a space exclusively dedicated to organize our clothes and accessories, beyond the usual cabinets and comfortable, it may be unusual or even sometimes sounds like something never seen outside the big screen. Today I come to convince you that this is a misconception. In any home, no matter how limited your space, you can make a place for this purpose. You just have to follow these five fundamentals to design a dressing…

1) Delimiting space

The first decision is; of course, choose a location for our dressing room. The starting point is to know the space we have and solve the dilemma between dedicate a separate room or reserve a section within a room with another function. In the first case, we can use to sort order that “surplus” that many houses have room and ends up being a junk store that do not fit anywhere else. In the second case, which is where I want to focus to be more likely, we must turn to divide rooms, which are perfect for screens or shelves modulated. To create a space within the best rooms are, by size and by logic, the bedroom or bathroom if you have enough measures; however, we can also take traffic areas like a long corridor or a new use for unused corners.

2) Optimizing storage

The main feature of a dressing is its functionality. To get it is very important to combine different types of storage, so I recommend you start by making a sketch on how to divide the different sections. The first will distribute the garments per season, to leave more hand most used at the relevant time and divert less accessible areas so that we use less frequently or not at ‘re going to need until after the current season. If we have high ceilings and yet, few meters wide, we must make the most of a vertical distribution and use elements such as attics, substantiates and, importantly, an easy ladder to move and even, if possible, convertible in chair.

It is also important to combine open spaces closed. The drawers and doors provide a sense of order and ensure greater cleanliness, but the open sections are much more visual and practices. Seek balance between the two and separation systems EMPLOYEES as curtains instead of doors, which will give the whole that intermediate point.

3) Choosing auxiliary

Once you’ve configured the furniture or main modules, add small auxiliary furniture that will make easier the organization: jewelers, shoemakers, coat racks. To complement, also elegiac a seat to be more comfortable especially when put on; I recommend you opt for a bench or stool to occupy the smallest possible space, plus many of these items have dual function and can be used as a trunk to add additional storage space.

At this point you can also decide if the dressing can also turn devote to other purposes, such as use as ironing room or toilet.

4) Accessories ordered

The protagonist of the dressing is clothes, but do not forget all our accessories, from handbags and shoes, more optional things as jewelry and hats. For them, add baskets, bags, boxes, pull-out shelves or hangers that keep them in order.

5) Projecting light

Finally, pay attention to lighting space. If there is a window in the room or the chosen corner, we learn to modulate the natural light to seize it but obviously we will not dress with the curtains open. Choosing a focus correct artificial light is important: the whiter better, to see the colors of the clothes perfectly, but if we had power, we risk turning the cramped space. If space permits, ideally complement conjunction with a standing mirror, a key element in a dressing room.
