Corner furniture for the living room has a number of advantages
- Thanks to its unique shape, the wall perfectly utilizes precisely those parts of the room that are most often used ineffectively, and sometimes not used at all. For this reason, almost the entire building is located in the corner, and therefore the room is quite spacious.
- The wall is functional and holds a lot of things, even large ones. Every item in the living room will have its place in the corner closet.
- The wall fits organically into the interior. If desired, you can make it merge with the wall, thereby visually unloading the living room.
- The wall has a chic modern design.
The wall has many advantages, but there are still a couple of disadvantages:
- In the living room it is almost impossible to find an alternative location for this furniture set.
- The wall does not look the most advantageous in a living room with low ceilings.
Features of corner walls
A corner wall can hide defects in the corner of the living room, since it is this corner that is most often susceptible to the growth of fungus and mold due to frequent temperature changes. It can be case, modular or even compartment.
On a note!
Cabinet cabinets may include various compartments. Some closets do not have a compartment for clothes, but do have a TV stand. Other models have a shoe rack and a compartment for winter clothes or open shelves.
A corner wall can be placed not only in the living room - a fashionable trend a few decades ago was the installation of corner cabinets in the living room and even the bedroom. It is worth noting that the configuration and layout of the cabinet itself will significantly depend on the room in which it is planned to be installed.
The main advantages of corner furniture are:
- Space saving, compact;
- Various configuration options;
- Ability to independently plan departments;
- Spaciousness and functionality;
- The ability to zone the space in the room where the cabinet is installed, to highlight certain functional areas.
Built-in corner wardrobe in the living room
A built-in wall is a practical solution for a living room. The value of the wall is that it is made individually according to the size of the room, and clearly fits into its place in the room.
It is not an option to buy such furniture ready-made, because difficulties in selecting the ideal size cannot be avoided. When creating a custom built-in wardrobe, you can be sure that you will be pleased with the end result.
Criteria for choosing a corner slide option
Modern corner walls for the living room are made either to order or as standard at the factory.
The advantages of custom-made furniture include a completely exclusive design and a competent approach to thinking through all the elements. An individual drawing will be created based on the dimensions of the products planned for placement. For example, if the customer is a musician and he needs space to place various instruments in a corner cabinet, this can easily be taken into account during production. The disadvantages of custom-made furniture include their higher cost, since in this case all furniture parts in production pass through the hands of designers and technologists on an individual basis, because cabinet furniture must be clearly designed.
Ready-made corner living rooms are budget options. Their internal content most often has an average functional load, suitable for the needs of the average consumer. If there are no specific size requests, then corner modular walls with the ability to select individual elements will be an excellent choice for rooms of any size.

Materials and interior style with a corner wall
Choosing furniture is never easy. After all, they buy it for more than one year, so not only the design is important, but also the depth of the cabinets, the width of the shelves, color, decor, quality of material and fittings.
Classic
For large, spacious living rooms with luxurious finishes, furnished with expensive furniture, the classic interior style is typical, characterized by the presence of a variety of sideboards and cabinets, display cases and closed drawers. However, if there is an empty corner, it always doesn’t look very good, no matter how you disguise it. The idea of purchasing a corner wall for such a room would be the best. It is characterized by strict symmetry and simplicity of the shapes of the items included in the set. Classic furniture is made from the most valuable and rare types of wood, so most likely the selected wall will be made of walnut, rosewood, cherry, oak, or beech.
A veneered wall or one made of synthetic materials that imitate the structure of wood will be a little cheaper. The corner model of furniture in a classic style depends on the overall concept of the room design. The decoration will be dominated by gilding, cast fittings, bent or turned legs. Expensive models can be decorated with marquetry - a mosaic made of valuable wood veneer. As well as small images made by hand with oil paints by artists, without stamps.
Provence
For a small-sized Khrushchev building, you should not choose glamorous or pompous styles. More modest ones - Provence and others close to folk ones - will look organic. A corner wall in French country style will have a touch of antiquity. All items are most often installed on legs and are distinguished by a large number of various doors, sometimes with glass. The corner wall will be approximately the same. Provence style rooms are literally “saturated” with light. Therefore, dark furniture is not always suitable for them. It is preferable to choose even brown shades closer to beige so that gloom does not settle in the house.
Natural colors and natural materials reign in Provence. Cotton and linen fabrics are especially valued; their rough handwork is sometimes even emphasized. Ceiling beams made of timber with faint traces of processing are a common occurrence. Corner walls made of wood are usually painted in delicate, soothing colors. They are decorated with simple drawings - images of flowers, simple rural landscapes.
Modern styles
The corner walls of the original designs will certainly be noticed by lovers of ultra-modern styles such as hi-tech, loft, pop art, avant-garde and others that are at the peak of fashion. Most wall designs are characterized by multifunctionality; transformable cabinets are in use. The latest technologies and materials are used in production. The color of furniture can be the most unexpected - lemon yellow, orange, poisonous green. Such “explosive” styles are supported by a carefully thought-out overall design, balanced composition and precise details.
You also need to remember that in a living room with a low ceiling, an ordinary wall will seem too bulky. Therefore, it is better to choose a small corner with a small set of items. It’s good if its proportions are elongated horizontally, and one or two wardrobes are vertical, and with small dimensions. When upward-directed lines or objects appear surrounded by such a mini-wall, the room will be transformed.
Advantages and disadvantages
Corner furniture chosen for the living room has many positive parameters. This is due to the fact that it is installed in a certain corner of the room, without taking up much space and filling space that is usually not used for any purpose at all.
Corner furniture is selected for small rooms, and with its help it is possible to arrange all the necessary interior items without cluttering the space.
The main advantages of using the products include:
- various irregularities or other imperfections are hidden on the walls of the corners of the premises;
- corner designs are excellent space savers, which is important for small rooms;
- usually walls for the living room are chosen that are installed in the corner, and they not only accommodate many different items, but there is also space for installing a TV;
- furniture designs are produced that are spacious and convenient for use;
Even a large living room will look great with corner upholstered furniture. Manufacturers equip it with numerous shelves, compartments and other additional elements that increase the comfort of its constant use. Living room furniture with a corner cabinet with significant capacity is perfect for such a room. If it is available, there is no need to install another wardrobe in the bedroom, which will save space. The disadvantages of purchasing such furniture include its high cost, and this is due to the specificity of the design.
