Currently, interior designers, offering different options for furnishing the living room, increasingly use for its design such a thing as a chest of drawers. Why? Everything is simple enough - it is convenient (by the way, this is translated from the French word "chest of drawers" - convenient), stylish, functional and absolutely not cumbersome. Of course, as with the purchase of any furniture, there are small subtleties in the choice of dresser in the living room.
Chest in the interior of the living room
With complete certainty it can be argued that the commodes are now experiencing their second birth - they are increasingly replacing the furniture walls. With their relatively small overall dimensions, the chests are still roomy, since they are a low cabinet with several drawers. In the living room, such chests of drawers can be used, for example, for storing table linen, family albums or, for example, Christmas ornaments. In addition, in the living room chests of this type are excellent in coping with the function of the TV stand. But in order to ensure that the combination of a chest of drawers and a TV set does not introduce dissonance into the interior of the living room, it is necessary to take into account the ratio of the sizes of these items - the width of the TV set should not exceed the width of the chest of drawers (according to the canons of interior design, wider items should be at the bottom).

Equally convenient is another type of chest of drawers - with drawers at the top and two or three-door lockers at the bottom. In the living room, a similar model of the dresser is usually used to store festive dishes and table linen in the lower part - in the closet, and in drawers - smaller objects, for example, cutlery. Another version of the dresser in the living room is a chest of drawers, which is the above described model with the addition in the form of a showcase. On the shelves of the storefront, you can effectively place elements of expensive dining set or original collectibles (for example, porcelain figurines).

Interior style and choice of dresser
Picking up this or that model of a chest in a drawing room, it is necessary to be guided not only own preferences, but to consider also a number of other parameters. First of all, the chest of drawers, if, of course, it is not an element of the living room set, it is selected in accordance with the style of the design of the room and the furniture already available in it. So, in the modern living room are appropriate chests, made in a modern style, usually of austere forms without any decor elements. For example, in a living room with a minimalistic or monochrome interior, a large, tall or squat bright chest of drawers will perfectly fit in, which will serve not only for storing many things, but will also become a kind of color accent.

And, of course, externally, the dressers in the living room, decorated in the style of a classic, are especially effective - usually on graceful curved legs; The facades are decorated with carvings, inlays or intarsia; often have a decor of copper or gilding and are made of natural wood.

Be sure to choose the furniture and take into account the ratio of the dimensions of the room and chest. A large, massive version is inappropriate in a small room. In this case, to save space in a small living room, you can, for example, install a corner chest - in this way the useful area of the room is released, the blind area of the corner is activated, and at the same time it is also possible to conveniently store things.
