How to pick up the furniture in the bathroom

Making the bathroom - it's a very important question.It is not only the appearance of the room, but also a functional point.Combine both of these criteria can be difficult, especially when it comes to small spaces.However, furniture stores and building supermarkets offer a wide range of different solutions for even the most complex tasks.About how to choose the right furniture for the bathroom, and will be discussed.

Theory

When it comes to the bathroom, the first thing that comes to mind - it's a relaxing shower or bath in the foam.However, what is good for man, bad furniture.Moisture vapor temperature differences result in disrepair even expensive products.There are several reasons:

• improper purpose,
• failure to comply with production techniques,
• ignore domestic rules of care for furniture.

no secret that the furniture is going to be developed and to meet specific needs.By design, the dining table is very different from working.Even if things look alike externally, according to the method and materials of the assembly they will differ.

materials Features:

• The most popular wood furniture.This trend has developed historically and is still relevant.It is important to understand that a tree - a living material, which is very sensitive to sudden changes in temperature.Even if the board treated with moisture protection impregnation, it is still very quickly will become worthless.Therefore, in the bath, it categorically does not fit.
• Next in popularity, building material - plywood.Like a tree, it is subject to fissuring.In addition, significantly more sensitive to the flag.
• chipboard - is glued sawdust, they completely duplicate the shortcomings of previous versions, in addition to repair the corrupted furniture is impossible.
• or MDF fibreboard - is the only material that meets the harsh operating conditions in the bathroom furniture.The technology allows us to give the plate resistance to moisture, it is not absolute protection, but will prolong the service life by several years.

There are certain options, when the furniture is made of galvanized steel or stone, a closer look at them on.

Important: MDF properties depend on the impregnation, so when buying furniture should always be given in her passport, that the water-resistant plate, otherwise the product will become worthless after a few years.

Practice

Furniture in the bathroom should be primarily carried out with maximum quality.On examination, pay attention to the product:

• gap on the front labels of contiguity corners,
• mounting method,
• presence legs for cabinets,
• plate thickness,
• thickness of the protective coating.

Raw MDF looks quite unattractive, so its paste special vinyl or acrylic facades.Most often - a PVC bases which are cast plastic panels.They are resistant to humidity, but if the seams are conspicuous cracks gradually wets the steam base plate, and it begins to swell, which in turn will lead to peeling damage the facade and complete furniture.

Much less MDF foundation poured liquid acrylic, resulting in a monolithic coating, which is one hundred percent protection from moisture.Such furniture is rare and is quite expensive, but it extends the life of at least ten years.

In both cases fundamental importance to the thickness of the slab itself.According to the standards it should not exceed two cm. In all other cases, you can be sure that you sell furniture, collected from artisanal low-quality materials.The same holds true with respect to the protective coating, the thickness of which rarely exceeds 1 mm.

for flooring products is important to have enough legs.This not only simplifies the cleaning process, but also protect against the accumulation of moisture under the nightstand.When it comes to hanging lockers, it is desirable that the retention mechanism is not intended to breach the protective cover (often sold as - is screwed to the wall rail, which by means of special hooks hung cabinet).

Where and how to buy?

To buy furniture for the bathroom, it is better apply to the construction hypermarket.As a rule, provided there are certified products have a guarantee of quality and a passport that allows you to understand how much the product will last a long time.

addition tog, the area of ​​these stores allows you to simulate a real space and clearly demonstrate how the item will look in the real world.This not only helps determine the choice, but also prompts a number of original design choices bathroom.

Prices in hypermarkets are much lower than in retail stores and is only slightly inferior to the market.Another unquestionable advantage - a huge range of products.This diversity not found anywhere else, except in the elite, specializing specifically in this product stores.

Tip: Before going to the store at least some clever design, because it is better to buy a complete set of bathroom furniture.This will save on shipping.

second place, to which you should pay attention to the market.There is much less of the goods, but there are a lot of non-standard options that are suitable for small rooms.In addition, there is an opportunity to bargain and save a few hundred rubles.Lack of only one - the lack of quality assurance.

Specialized stores sell mainly luxury goods.Trading ordinary tables and cabinets are not profitable, because their price is higher than the competition, so the buyer offer a truly unique furniture.The cost of appropriate and can be up to hundreds of thousands of rubles.

Another option - bathroom furniture to order.Suitable for those who created his own design project, which will need to implement custom forms and solutions.Handicraft masters quite a lot, there are ads in the Internet and in newspapers.The total cost of production is higher than in a hypermarket, but you implement your ideas.

Tip: turning to untested workshop, to provide better working their own material, and warn you that you pick pruning.This will protect against that as furniture panels will be used ordinary, nevlagostoyky MDF, whose cost is much lower.Some advance for the work you will take for sure, but full payment must occur only after an act of acceptance and transfer of goods.If you have something does not suit, alterations must be carried out by a workshop.

Ideas for design

Question bathroom design largely depends on the shape and size of the room.Large rooms offer two options:

• classic,
• minimalism.

Classical notion of collective and suggests that she suite installed permanently, and the whole composition is built around it.The first thing worth considering is the cabinet under sink.It performs two functions, hides supply of communications and serves as a place to store household chemicals.Consequently, the inner part must comply with these requirements.External design should match the color.Experts recommend:

• blue and white,
• white and black,
• white and red.

Suit and other colors, but it is desirable to withstand the range of only two colors.It not only looks beautiful, but also creates a comfort.

After cabinet is installed, proceed to the different shelves, lockers, etc.References to the selection, are the same.Classic implies maximum functionality, so the selection criteria are subjective enough, as long as you feel comfortable.

Minimalism - a modern fashionable solution.Bath on legs set in the middle of the room.On one wall is a washstand.Last piece of furniture, which say, ladies dressing table.The color scheme involves dark colors and minimal lighting.Style helps create an atmosphere of sacraments and privacy, but actually looks good only in the premises with an area of ​​20 square meters.m.

In small bathrooms imagination is very limited area.So instead of furniture bowl set various shelves or niches.Curbstone needed only for washing hands, and that is true if the household chemicals have nowhere else to store.For more details about how the looks bathroom furniture will help the photo.

Custom solutions

Under furnishings understand not only products of wood and derived materials, but also any other solutions to decorate and optimize space.It will focus on glass and stone.

Glass, usually used for the production of shelves.The modern market offers the most diverse palette of colors and shapes.With these products create a unique and original, and most importantly, very functional composition.Glass refers to the eternal materials, since the only thing that can damage it mechanical damage.Another drawback - the salt coating to be removed regularly.

Glass is becoming more and more popular.Also the tables are already starting to produce various tables and dressing tables.They originally fit into any interior and allow you to forget about the problems with moisture.

Stone - the world's first building material.Fashion it never disappeared.It is even more versatile than glass.Today, it applies not only natural but also man-made stone.Furniture, made in a style quite rare in Russia, and is specific to England.

makes it, as a rule, with their own hands.To do this, collect the desired structure of brick and sheathe its boards made of granite, marble and Corian (Corian).It looks very rich and unusual.In terms of value, it costs even cheaper than MDF furniture.

Another good and newfangled solution - a niche.Using profiles and drywall easily create absolutely any designs.By the walls of the assembled door, as a result, it turns out quite nice and non-standard furniture.
