To equip the interior of the room, if you decide to separate the dressing room from the main room, there are two ways:

1. On one wall. This method is a compactly assembled storage system along one of the walls. Leave shelves and shelves open - this will save space. The space that remains - use as a fitting room or to move around the dressing room.
2. On two walls. This method provides an arrangement of the filling along two walls. This option is as capacious and compact as possible. It will be easy to enter such a system for storing things, but using it as a fitting room will not work either. This method is perfect for those who want to fit as much as possible the things of all residents.
