Corner shelving

An excellent version of cabinet furniture , which is used to store items for various purposes, is a rack. It consists of multi-tier shelves and other compartments that minimize the occupied space and are convenient in terms of access to stored items.

Application of corner shelving in the house

This kind of furniture is multifunctional, but will cost more than a direct option. This is because the corner rack is usually made to order, given the size of the room and the place where it will be. In addition, with corner models you need to be cautious enough when it comes to very small rooms. After all, too massive a rack can visually further reduce the room. However, if you correctly calculate its dimensions, it will be an excellent assistant in the visual increase in space.

This type of shelving will be in demand in almost any room. First, it is an indispensable option for a library located in the living room. The corner shelf for books can also become a decoration for the children's room. The kitchen corner will undoubtedly benefit from such an acquisition, especially if it is a corner kitchen. Perhaps, the most popular such furniture will be in the nursery, because there is an urgent need for daily cleaning things and bringing order. Children's corner shelving will occupy very little space, but in its functionality it will be better than any chest. Also in this room you can consider the option is not a full-fledged rack, but the usual shelves, which will be in the corner above the table or bed. As for the parent bedroom, here, too, it will be nice to save space with corner shelving, which perfectly fit into the corner above the bed or in front of it. After all, a full double bed often takes up most of the room, but things need to be folded somewhere

.

In addition, do not forget about the back rooms in the house, which also requires the presence of shelves and boxes. This is a pantry, a balcony, a loggia. Often they do not have a large quadrature, so a small cabinet is what you need. For such premises it is best to choose an open corner rack from which you can quickly get the necessary tool or box.

Classification of racks according to the material of manufacture

There are two most common types of shelving - metal and wooden. You can find more and plastic models, which are much cheaper. However, at home, excessive use of plastic is not recommended, because it is not environmentally friendly. The metal corner shelf is ideal for utility rooms. Because there it will be affected by sunlight, dampness, precipitation (in the case of an unglazed balcony or loggia). They are very durable and reliable, but they are worth a lot. It must be remembered that the metal can rust, so it must be pre-colored.

For rooms in the house are good corner wooden shelves, which look beautiful, as well as environmentally friendly. True, their cost will be rather big, therefore furniture from a natural tree is acquired infrequently. Mostly modern houses prefer MDF or chipboard shelving. They look good, you can choose many different colors "under the tree." Their cost is much lower than metal or made of natural wood.
