Types of corner cabinets
There are two types of corner wardrobe in the bedroom: built-in or cabinet.
Built-in wardrobes in corners are the most spacious, as they do not have back and top walls, thereby filling the entire space, which is especially important for a small bedroom. Basically, such furniture is made to order, taking into account all the client’s wishes, be it the overall size, the presence and number of drawers, shelves, clothes hangers, and also the external design can be mirrored or made of another material, the doors can be hinged or compartment. You can come up with a cabinet design yourself, or you can use the services of specialists or find ready-made proposals. The main disadvantage is that built-in furniture is “afraid” of moisture, so it is important to constantly ventilate the room.

A cabinet corner wardrobe, unlike a built-in one, can be purchased ready-made, or can also be made to order. Why is it not convenient? The fact that the thickness of the walls often “takes away” much-needed centimeters, and it is more difficult to choose a suitable model. However, if square meters allow, then it is quite possible to choose a good, large hinged corner wardrobe that will harmonize perfectly with the overall design of the room.
As a rule, the price of custom-made furniture is higher than ready-made furniture. But it is not always the case. It all depends on the manufacturer, materials, and design complexity.

Functions of a corner wardrobe in the bedroom

Pine has a beautiful color and texture (although pine is sometimes given shades of other types of wood, for example, walnut), and it also has healing properties, exuding a pleasant, air-disinfecting aroma.
