Corner cabinet made of chipboard
So, the most popular raw material for making cabinets today is chipboard.
The main advantage of furniture made from this material is its low cost, which is based on the ease of production. In fact, the slabs are made from compressed sawdust.
Such material can ultimately take on a large variety of different colors to suit any need.
A special laminate material is applied to the slabs, which reduces susceptibility to any liquids and can withstand sudden changes in temperature, making a corner cabinet made of chipboard an excellent choice for a hallway room.
The main disadvantage is that this material contains certain dangerous resins that can release harmful elements, but this is not typical for a corner cabinet in a hallway, because such a reaction of releasing various resin vapors occurs only under the influence of very high temperatures, unusual for ordinary housing .

It is better to place a wardrobe in a small area.

Decor
Correctly chosen decor of a corner cabinet with a mirror allows it to harmoniously “fit” into the overall interior of the room. The following tools and methods are used for registration:
- Satin is colorless or tinted - the surface of the mirror is etched with chemicals until it loses its reflective properties.
- Decoration with patterns - the surface of the facade is etched according to a given pattern so that it becomes milky.
- Foiling with “metallic” gray or colored film.
- Three-dimensional internal pattern - to make it, a relief ornament is first applied to the glass, and then an amalgam is applied inside it.
- Sandblasting matting - the desired effect is achieved by applying many mini-scratches and notches.
- Photo printing is quite an expensive pleasure, but such doors with mirror inserts look elegant. You can reduce the cost of the process by using color posters based on vinyl film.
- Vinyl stickers - most often produced on Oracal film (Germany). You can purchase ready-made ones or make your own. They look like a stylish pattern applied with paint and do not interfere with caring for the coating in the usual way.
- Stained glass is the most expensive type of decor on a mirror surface. The color drawings are voluminous and very expressive.
Cabinets where the mirror occupies only part of the surface of the door panel look interesting. More often they are used precisely as decoration, and not for consumer purposes.
For the Art Nouveau style, you should use simple cabinets without unnecessary patterns and decor; it is permissible to choose furniture with colored mirrors. Modern is a more sophisticated direction. For such apartments, furniture with stained glass design and unusual patterns is suitable. Japanese-style cabinets with floral patterns and oriental landscapes on the mirrors are very interesting. Provence lovers should choose furniture with a façade decorated with floral patterns.

Typically, corner cabinets are installed in rather dark places, so internal lighting makes them more convenient to use. External lighting additionally creates a feeling of comfort (especially appropriate in the hallway or bedroom). Lamps use fluorescent or LED, since halogen ones are more dangerous from the point of view of operation and do not last long.
