As many of us do not have a design education, and almost everyone has the desire to formalize their dwelling, sooner or later we have to place difficult tasks on our shoulders. For example, if it concerns furniture, the primary task is to pick up spacious furniture, while it should not take up much space and carry some aesthetic function - in other words, be beautiful. But all doubts fall away when the decision is made to place the built-in in its house.

These giants carry some kind of attractive force. Probably, because they are really super-spacious and functional, besides, they are extremely beautiful - the facade of these cabinets can be any. But we will talk about decorative properties and design a bit later, and now let's define the advantages and disadvantages of built-in cabinets.
Of course, there will be more pluses than minuses. This is the opportunity to fit them into empty corners, niches;and it is rational to use every meter of the area due to the lack of walls, height to the ceiling and sliding doors;and the ability to close unnecessary beams, columns and communications.
Of the minuses, it can be noted the impossibility of sliding doors to provide access to the entire contents of the cabinet, because the leaf only moves to one side and only one half of the cabinet opens. It is also worth noting that sometimes the sliding mechanisms come into disrepair, so pay due attention to this moment - choose only high-quality mechanisms. Well, another such cabinet can not be moved, but this can hardly be called a disadvantage, since a bespoke closet will hardly fit into another place.

And now let's see what kinds of built-in wardrobes are and where they are usually placed.
The name "built-in closet" in itself means a wardrobe built into the wall, that is, it has no roof, no side walls, simply the shelves are placed between the "native" walls of the room and covered with a beautiful facade. It is very convenient and economical, because in the construction of such a construction there are no costs for the material intended for side walls, floor and roof. In addition, the face saving space, especially for small-sized apartments, which takes into account every centimeter of living space.
The closet can be built into a niche, in a corner or placed at the full length of the wall.

Corner built-in wardrobes
Most often they are used as furniture for the hallway, as often in miniature hallways there is no possibility to enter a full cabinet. But also such cabinets can be located in children's rooms, bedrooms and even living rooms. In the form of corner cabinets can be divided into:
- L-shaped - in this case, each cabinet as it consists of two separate cabinets with a common point of contact;
- triangular - when the cabinet is built into the corner of the room and closed by a single facade;
- trapezoidal - from the triangular are distinguished by the presence of side shelves, which is why similarity with the trapezoid.
The last two types of the cabinet are quite roomy, and it's good if they fit in the hallways. But if not, then in the living room or in the dressing room such a cupboard will contain quite a few necessary and not very necessary things. Here it is necessary to dwell on the dimensions of the room. If they are not very large, then the best variant of the corner arrangement will not be a triangular one and certainly not a trapezoidal one( for such a cabinet you need space), but a L-shaped view. It has compact dimensions, besides, it is not difficult to reach any thing.

Cupboard built-in niche
It can be placed anywhere: in the corridor, dressing room, living room, nursery, bedroom, home cabinet, in general, there,where there is a niche. As a rule, such a cabinet does not have side shelves, it fits exactly into the niche, and from the front side only the decorative facade - the door remains visible.

"Filling" for built-in closets: shelves, drawers and other accessories
The internal filling built-in wardrobes can differ almost unlimitedly. And you know what else is good? If you make a built-in wardrobe to order, then you can order any filling of shelves and drawers. But in fact, depending on the purpose of the cabinet, its internal contents will be different.
For example, a wardrobe in the hallway should accommodate the outer clothing of all family members, so most of it will be reserved for the hanging rails( sometimes referred to as the trempel).But in the bedroom, children's room, the outerwear will not be, but there will be a lot of other clothes and necessary items in everyday life: large and small. Therefore, the cabinet in these rooms is often filled not only with ordinary shelves, but also with retractable( of different heights), as well as drawers and baskets, so that no one thing is lost, and it can be quickly found.

In the bedroom( and sometimes in the room of a small apartment), you can find a wardrobe with a built-in bed. Such practical furniture not only fits perfectly into the interior of the room, but also combines several functions.

What can I say about the decorative component of the facades of built-in wardrobes? The fact that such doors can transform any space, because they can be not only wooden, but also glass, mirror. Doors for the built-in wardrobe made of laminated chipboard can be attributed to the economy-variant, since they do not carry a decorative load, but more cope with the main task - protecting the contents of the cabinet from extraneous views.
But glossy and frosted glass doors, as well as mirror doors, are most accurately selected for the interior. They are able to "revitalize" the space, add color and brightness to the room. In addition, facades with excellent reflectivity, for example, as in the mirrored built-in closet, play a function of expanding the space, because everyone knows the ability of the mirror to reflect the situation of the room.

What else you need to know about the decorative function of doors? The fact that they can be not only with a monochrome pattern, as in the case of sandblasting the mirror, but the facades can also be colored - here we are talking about photographic prints and frescoes with the effect of "antique".On the facades of the mirror surface, you can apply any drawing, and choose the way to transfer it.

Well, at last, let's determine where you can buy or order such a miracle cupboard? To begin with, you can buy it ready - various companies, including the Internet, sell ready-made wardrobes with certain sizes. But it is much more interesting to order it according to individual sizes and personal preferences, so that it fits exactly into your room for design and interior filling. To do this, you need to call the company for the manufacture of such cabinets and call a gauger at home. The remaining problems will fall on the shoulders of the manufacturer. And for those who have golden hands, it will be interesting to own a version of such furniture, because the built-in closet with your own hands is easy.
