- wood;
- MDF;
- Chipboard;
- metal;
- DSP;
- plastic;
- glass;
- mirrors.
Of course, the most durable material is wood: models of oak, pine look solid and are durable. Despite the fact that they are heavier than analogs of MDF and particleboard, these products are better, although it is not always possible to whiten them to a snow-white shade. Lamination of facade facing on chipboard and fiber plates and MDF is not a problem, and the materials imply a different type of surface (glossy, matte, smooth, embossed, specular, convex, concave).
The white color of the surface can be made by:
- PVC films;
- acrylic;
- special enamel.
Models are often performed with a combination of materials. For example, it can be products with glass doors, options with a mirror insert, plastic decor or handles. Buying often baffles, because the quality of raw materials is different, and advertising does not speak about anything.
To be sure, you should choose models from wood to the living room, options from chipboard to the kitchen, from plastic to the bathroom.
Color combinations
The white shade is universal in that it can be combined with different colors of the color palette. However, not everything is so simple: white does not like bright contrasts, as they simplify it. The companion added to it must be muffled, diluted, soft. If the product is performed in sharp contrast, for example, it is a black and white cabinet, a dark shade should be at a minimum, solely to emphasize the beauty of white.
The most successful combinations of white are the combinations with diluted shades of the pastel group: light pink, pale blue, beige, wenge. A good technique is the addition to white of a golden hue in the form of lines framing the contours.

How can you decorate?
Furniture decor is a separate topic. It is suitable for updating old furniture and is good in cases where the wardrobe is new. Manufacturers produce different versions of cabinets. However, not all that is for decoration, like this shade. Ludicrous and incomprehensible flowers will look inappropriate in white furniture, as well as incomprehensible stickers of different subjects and size.
If you want to decorate the surface of the cabinet harmoniously, you should take note of the techniques and rules of experienced stylists:
- the decoration has its own rules: it is not located chaotically, thoughtlessly and submits to the general idea of design;
- if the surface is smooth and has no relief, a self-adhesive film on a paper or film basis will be suitable, which can be glued over one facade fabric by repeating the reception in another piece of furniture of identical color (for example, pasting doors);
- than to paint yourself with acrylic paints, you can order photo printing in a shade that is present in the interior;
- the drawing on the surface must coincide with the theme of the chosen style and take into account the rules of dimension (a large print makes the room smaller).
If the interior has certain decoration details (in furniture, chandeliers, chairs, ottomans, etc.), you can order a similar decor individually by contacting a specialized workshop. Experienced specialists will always help you finish the work professionally, fixing it on the cabinet surface as if it is native, and the cabinet itself is part of the interior composition. In this case, you should not carry out the decoration yourself or attach it to the surface of the facade: the result does not always meet the expectations. It is better if specialists do it.
Beautiful examples in the interior
Placing a white cabinet is a creative and exciting process. To establish it harmoniously and appropriately, one cannot do without additional support, which in each case is individual.
The model of a laconic form without decor will relieve the bedroom of dark spots and will look original if it has top lighting and a ceiling of the same color.
The wardrobe will successfully fit into the interior of neutral tones, if on the facade of the furniture there will be a simple finish in a gray tint present on other furniture.
The model with mirror cloths harmoniously expands the space of the bedroom in beige tones, complemented by handles, like those of the main furniture.
A narrow wardrobe in antique style with carved decoration is appropriate in the interior of the living room, bedroom and even a corridor, if it has support in the form of furniture of a similar pattern or frame of paintings.
Coupling with figured mirror accents, embossed pattern and handles, stylized as precious stones, is a good accent of the bedroom in the Turkish style, with the support in the form of a luxurious chandelier with candles and crystal.
If there is a minimum of interior elements in the room, it seems too boring, you can save the situation by decorating the front of the closet with a print of Chinese themes: stylish and tasteful.
