And the main thing – if you want your clothes and shoes to be always in order, not rumpled and looked well and each thing has its own place you should make the cloakroom in your dwelling.
Many people think that it is possible to create the cloakroom only in the separate placement, for example in some free room. However the advantage of cloakroom is that any free space in the apartment should be used for its creation – the niche, part of room, corridor or other room.
Any cloakroom is a wardrobe of any size which differs only with the fact that it is possible to enter it. Both doors and partitions of the cloakroom can be made of natural wood, veneered and laminated wood chipboard, glass, mirror. Design and color gamut of doors and partitions should correspond to the common style of placement. For example the wood will blend with classic interior, glass and mirror emphasize the modernity of high-tech style and wicker partition of bamboo will become the wonderful supplement of country or minimalism.
Every cloakroom is worked out by individual project and has its specialties and original design but they are alike by inner filling. Most cloakrooms consist of the following system: the shelves and stands with various sections, bars for hanging clothes, wire baskets and roll-out and open cases. The cloakroom is obligatory equipped with several mirrors. Some hostesses put the ironing board what is very comfortable by the way.
Owing to the modern tendentious the cloakroom stopped being the luxury and became very necessary and useful placement. Therefore think carefully – maybe it’s time to free your house from useless bulky furniture and create comfortable conditions for you and your clothes.

In the end of 20th century the people became more sensitive to the feeling of nature. Being tired of fighting with the problems of ecology some progressive persons decided to create their own “ecologically clean” world in the limits of their house and free it from all physicochemical garbage.
The eco style in interior began to be discussed when the time for whole nature to be written into the Red book came. The design created not by the person but by the nature itself – this is what the eco style appreciates. Natural materials, warm and comfort palette of colors of ground, sand and bark, simply cozy furniture of modest wood with expressive game of lines on the saw cut of the board, rather coarse linen textile with rough thread webbed in the hopsack – this is what the refined simplicity of eco style consists of.
People who live in such interior become kinder and calmer – they begin to notice the beauty of the simplest things because they are close the person because of their nature, non-aggressive and romantic.
The houses built according to the principles of eco style are spacious and light. This is little furniture here, things and utensils hide in the niches and unsophisticated cupboards. This style leaves the owner a lot of free space for creation and possibility to satisfy the house with various things. Furniture and home accessories in eco style can be met mainly in the most expensive shops of the production of the famous designer firms.
Today’s furniture exhibitions often demonstrate the eco style in interiors like the style of life. Clothes for furniture and windows prevails white and beige, canvas-grey. The bouquets and fruit trees blossom on them. Refined decoration of textile blends wonderfully with the ascetic forms of furniture made of very light or very dark wood. Even sinks and baths now are made of wood; they are supplemented with the wicker cupboards. Dining tables are decorated with the dishes of simple forms made of glass or loam, wicker vases or wood accessories.
The famous words of Coco Channel that the fashion goes away but the style is forages suggest themselves. Moreover, if this style is dictated with nature.
