A children's room is a special room in the house, which must be completed according to all the rules and in accordance with the wishes of the little resident. The space in this room should be as free as possible for games, and the furniture should be comfortable and include a lot of things and toys. For a small room, installing a corner closet is ideal, in which you can successfully place all the children's things without overloading the space.

When choosing elements of a corner structure, you should not limit yourself to ordinary shelves. You can think of drawers of different sizes, baskets, wardrobe lifts, rods, hooks.
Pros of a corner cabinet

Based on the photos available in the catalogs, children's corner cabinets can be selected for children of any age with a wide variety of taste preferences. They will effectively change the space of the nursery and give the room individuality. True, ordinary cabinets are also quite diverse - you can see this by looking at our photo selection.
Advantages of a corner cabinet
There are several reasons why a corner type design is chosen for a children's room:
- Possibility to choose the location of shelves and drawers inside.
- Reliability thanks to installation directly to the wall.
- Spaciousness, thanks to which all the things and accessories that the child uses will fit inside.
- Variety of products offered. At the moment, the furniture market offers many models of corner cabinets, including compartments, for children's rooms with different designs.
Advice! To visually enlarge the room, you can purchase a structure with a mirror, but it is worth remembering that installing such a structure in a room with a small child is prohibited.
Primary requirements
The environment in the nursery must be thought out in detail so that the child is not injured. The sliding wardrobe is the main piece of furniture that should be given special attention. To ensure safety, this piece of furniture must meet the following requirements:
- Environmental friendliness of the materials from which the cabinet is made. The seller is obliged to provide supporting documentation upon the buyer's request. You cannot install a wardrobe made of chipboard in a children's room. For its processing, a formaldehyde-based composition is used. Poison fumes cause serious problems with the nervous system.
- No dangerous bends or sharp corners.
- Equipping doors with anti-jump devices and deep rails.
- Proper operation of all mechanisms.
- Sturdy, high quality fittings.
- Mirror and glass inserts must be durable, with reliable fastenings.
Types of designs for corner cabinets in a children's room
This piece of furniture, depending on the cost, can be luxury, prestige, economy or elegant. For the children's room, it is recommended to purchase multifunctional furniture that combines several elements.
With wall
A corner cabinet combined with a wall should be ordered in order to create a seamless furniture space. It is possible to make it from several modules, then make a set from them. These include pencil cases, cabinets, a computer desk, cabinets, and shelves. This option looks bulky, but actually frees up space and saves it. The material for making products should be chosen to be practical and easy to clean.
For the convenience of a small child, you can install a special ladder or stand.
With bed
A wardrobe with a bed provides for a sleeping place located below or above. There is an option with a bed that can be retracted into a special section during the day. The optimal material for making such an idea is birch, oak and ash. The kit can include upper shelves above the bed and additional structures on the opposite side. The design of the side part suggests the arrangement of open shelves for storing books, souvenirs and photographs.

Built-in wardrobe in a niche - an economical furniture option
Variety of corner cabinets
Choosing a corner wardrobe for a child’s room is not so easy, because now there are many types of furniture of this type. Depending on the cost, products can be divided into luxury, prestige, elegant or economy class. Nowadays, those products that combine several furniture elements and can perform several functions at once are gaining increasing popularity. Below we will present such options with photos.
Corner cabinet with wall
To create a seamless furniture space in a children's room, a corner cabinet combined with a wall is often installed. For simplicity, you can order several necessary modules, from which you can then create the necessary set, depending on the wishes and requirements of the child and parents. Such a set of furniture elements can consist of a cabinet, pencil cases, a computer desk, cabinets and shelves of various configurations.
Many people are afraid that such a design will take up a lot of space, because at first it looks very cumbersome. But this is absolutely not the case and, having installed it in the nursery, you can see how the set frees up space, rationalizing it. Thus, you can save a lot of free space by installing modules in full height, and storage space in the lower part. It is worth considering the fact that the furniture material must be chosen as practical as possible, so that it can be cleaned of various types of contaminants, and also so that it can withstand mechanical stress from a child.
Important! If necessary, you need to install special ladders or stands for the baby’s convenience.
Corner wardrobe with bed
For a child, a bed with a wardrobe is just a dream. The sleeping place can be located both below and above, representing an attic equipped with a special ladder for going upstairs. It is also possible to put the bed in a special section during the day when it is not in use.
The ideal materials for such a set would be birch, ash and oak. These types of wood are hard, so only they can withstand the impact of a child on furniture. It is better not to purchase products made from soft wood. And when installing MDF or chipboard in children's furniture, you need to pay attention to the quality of the material and the absence of harmful substances.
Usually the closet is located on the side of the bed and has such advantages as spaciousness, the presence of many convenient shelves, and convenient arrangement of necessary things.
This set can include upper cabinets that are located above the bed, as well as additional structures on the other side. There are also often open shelves on the side for storing books and souvenirs.
Here are some designs of corner wardrobes with a bed:
- Combined with a bunk bed. This option is very convenient for families with two children. Inside you can place the things of both children and not worry that there will be no place for them.
- L-shaped kit. These options are designed for 1 child and consist of a wardrobe and 1 bed. At the same time, they take up little space, freeing it up for games.
- With additional work space. Such corner sets combine sleeping, working and storage space. Usually the bed is located on the second level, and the workplace is under it. This set is distinguished by its spaciousness and functionality with a fairly small footprint. Perfect as furniture for a small room or as a children's corner in a room with parents.
- Loft type bed. This furniture set is designed for 1 child, but the bed is always located at the top.
Corner wardrobe
There are children's rooms that do not have a large area. It is very difficult to fit any furniture into them and you have to save space. Corner wardrobes are ideal for such rooms. This solution will help save a lot of free space and accommodate all the necessary children's things.
Important! You can install such a cabinet even if there is a bed or any other piece of furniture next to it that could interfere with the swing doors.
A corner wardrobe can be simply triangular, or it can be created in a rounded version. In the latter case, it is made convex, concave or combined. Furniture companies also make cabinets based on individual designs. By installing a corner cabinet of an interesting shape in a children's room, you can create a truly original interior that will interest the child and his guests. This option is shown in the photo.
Built-in corner cabinet
You can fit the cabinet into any niche, if the room has one, and place it in any corner. With this design you can hide any communications. The only disadvantage of such a set is the inability to have access to all sections of the cabinet at the same time.
Advice! If you want to save money, then it is better to install a built-in wardrobe, since the cost of material is much lower compared to buying a full-fledged wardrobe.
The designs of built-in wardrobes are triangular, trapezoidal and L-shaped. The second type is considered the most spacious, but it is not always suitable for small rooms where an L-shaped design fits best. These options are more compact and convenient for a child to use.
It is especially worth paying attention to the interior contents of the cabinet. It is best to focus on placing shelves and cabinets in which you can hide toys or laundry. You should not take up a lot of space in the closet for hanging outerwear, since it is mainly stored in the hallway.

About furniture - recommendations from psychologists
Many psychologists believe that room design influences the character and emotional state of children.
The main guideline for choosing a wardrobe for a nursery is the child’s behavior. For those who are hyperactive and restless, you need to select furniture in which all the details are harmoniously combined and balanced. After some time, parents will be surprised to notice changes in the behavior of both young children and teenagers - they will become more balanced and calm.
A child who is uncommunicative and withdrawn will be helped to loosen up by bright furniture with playful details. Very soon it will not be difficult for a boy or girl to find a common language with their peers.
If it is difficult for a child to maintain order, parents can choose a closet with a large and varied content. Drawers, hangers, shelves will help you neatly fold clothes, store toys in their place, and arrange books in a certain order.
It is also important to pay attention to the choice of color. Many parents are afraid to choose a white design for their children's room. However, according to psychologists, this color is optimal for the base shade, which is easy to match with bright, rich colors. In addition, white helps to calm down and has a gentle effect on the emotional state, in contrast to contrasting shades - red, blue.
White and beige are neutral and universal colors for children's rooms. But you cannot allow them to be the only ones present in the children’s room; such a design should be diluted with splashes of bright accents.
As additional ones you can use:
- Red is the color of energy and cheerfulness. Best suited for inactive and lethargic children. In the nursery, the number of red items should be minimal.
- Orange - resembles red, but has a softer effect. Promotes the development of creative abilities, creates a feeling of comfort, and also activates the child’s appetite. In the room you can put a wardrobe, the doors of which are painted in orange tones.
- Yellow is the most successful color for a nursery. Helps improve mood, increase attention, develops intuition.
- Green is the color of nature and peace. Paintings in its tones above the bed, curtains, and closet decor in emerald shades help the child calm down and relax, but an excess of this color can cause a deterioration in well-being.
- Blue – relieves stress, improves sleep, however, the predominance of deep shades prevents the child from concentrating and also causes a feeling of discomfort.
- Blue is similar in its effect to green, but when used in large quantities it distracts attention. It is better to use the shade to decorate a recreation area or sports corner. A wardrobe in blue tones can be placed next to the bed.
- Purple – the attitude towards it is ambiguous. On the one hand, it is the color of creativity, but on the other, loneliness. When buying a purple cabinet, you need to choose the lightest shade.
Note: if you are not sure that the chosen color will be appropriate in the room, but the child insists on his choice, offer a compromise solution - a light shade.
