one Make a dressing table
There is often not enough space for a dressing table, especially in small bedrooms. You can equip it … in the closet. And IKEA Pax wardrobes are quite suitable for this purpose. See how you can put a mirror above the countertop, and equip drawers for storage below it. To make it easier to find the right thing, the boxes can be transparent.

5 things from IKEA that can deprive the interior of individuality
2 Leave an open wardrobe
Facades are quite expensive, and IKEA Pax looks profitable and beautiful even without doors. It is enough to choose the right internal filling — mix sliding transparent shelves with closed drawers. It is with the Pax prefabricated system that this is not difficult — it is assembled according to the principle of a constructor from the necessary elements.

3 Choose facades in the color of the walls
A walk-in closet can be made less noticeable by choosing its outer surfaces in the color of the walls. For the same purpose, give up noticeable handles, and the furniture seems to dissolve in the interior.

four Install mirror facades
At Pax, you can also choose mirrored doors. The big advantage of mirror surfaces is that the room looks 2 times larger. A modern solution is to choose absolutely all doors with a mirror facade. The mix of mirrors and a plain door is no longer relevant.

5 Use doors instead of wall panels
An atypical solution that will help to “disguise” wardrobes in the interior. IKEA Pax fronts are sold separately and can be used in this way — attached to the wall instead of wall panels. It turns out a stylish solution in the spirit of neoclassicism.

6 Build cabinets under the stairs
Even if there is enough space — as is usually the case in duplex apartments or private cottages — the space must be used to the maximum. And the idea of arranging additional storage space under the stairs just suits this purpose.
7 Make wardrobes in the attic
According to the principle of the storage system under the stairs, it is possible to equip a dressing room on the attic floor under a sloping roof. To do this, you will have to trim the frames, but the number of drawers and shelves can be varied according to your desire.
eight Install double wardrobes
Two identical storage spaces that sit on either side of a TV area, bed, or sofa don’t look as bulky as if they were side by side.
9 Make an accent wall
Choose contrasting facades that fill the entire wall, and they will become the main accent in the interior.
ten Customize the cabinet by changing the facades
Frames can be left from IKEA — this is really more budgetary than many other options, but you can show imagination with the appearance of furniture. The simplest, but at the same time quite expensive option is to make them to order. For example, in this room, teenage girls chose soft pink.
The option is more budgetary, but at the same time original — to attach … curtains to the facades. For example, in this case, the curtains were glued to the plywood, and the plywood to the doors.
eleven Apply moldings
Ordinary moldings can transform plain IKEA Pax doors. After that, you can paint the doors in the desired color along with the moldings.
12 Attach new handles
The more unusual the handles, the more individual any furniture will look. New handles can be made in the length of the entire door.
13 Use drawings or leftover wallpaper
They can be glued to the front of the cabinet to give it a new look.
fourteen Combine IKEA Pax with kitchen sets
For example, as the designer did in one of her projects. To install cabinets up to the ceiling, they added kitchen frames — like mezzanines. And they were inscribed in a niche by sawing the facades in width.
