Today we will talk about comfortable and attractive corner tables, which are in great demand among modern buyers.

Today, not every person can boast of a spacious housing large footage. This is especially true of the owners of city apartments. In the conditions of a constant lack of free space, we have to treat each square meter with care and deliberation. Especially for such layouts, many manufacturers nowadays produce corner tables.

Thus, you can significantly save free space in the home, despite the large dimensions of such tables, since the need to install 2-3 separate tabletops will simply disappear.

Today the furniture market is literally overflowing with various models of tables with angular designs. Let's take a closer look at all possible modifications of such popular and relevant furniture.

In our time, a person spends the lion’s share of free and working time at the computer. That is why the tables designed for the installation of such equipment on them today are more popular than ever.

There are two main types of such interior items:

• models with a diagonal orientation, which imply that the face of the person sitting behind them will be directed to the corner part;
• diagonal-parallel options, working for which the user can sit both in parallel and diagonally with respect to the wall.

The first option is more compact. Most often, owners of small dwellings address such interior items. However, such small-sized products have their drawbacks: they do not provide for the possibility of installing additional drawers or shelves.

Diagonal-parallel designs are more functional. They can be equipped with almost any necessary additions. But It is worth noting that such models do not differ in democratic size, so they can be located only in spacious rooms.

Without a desk can not do if in your home there is a business office or a room in which the student lives. Corner desks are often equipped with various functional additions. Classic are corner designs with a bedside table and a wardrobe. Above such a workplace, many people install shelves (their design can also be angular).

Thanks to this structure, it is possible to speak with confidence about the practicality of such desks.Working and learning behind them will be as convenient and productive as possible, since all the necessary components will be next to the user. It can be textbooks, notebooks, magazines and other similar things.

Modern manufacturers produce student corner tables that have an interesting and unusual design. This can be a model of bright and juicy color or a laconic design in a futuristic style for a teenager.

Especially popular and functional deskswhich can also be used as computer. In them, one half is reserved for written work, and the other - for the use of a laptop or desktop PC. As a rule, the second part of such furniture is complemented by compartments for storing disks and various office equipment.

Interestingly look and are convenient in operation kitchen angular tables. There are several types of such useful constructions:

• Dinner table. Such furniture is usuallyIt is installed in the corner of the room and saves free space. The disadvantage of the dining tables is that they are unlikely to accommodate more than 2 people.

An interesting design boasts a corner bar tables. As a rule, the width of such models does not exceed half a meter. The basis of such options is often supplemented by built-in wardrobes and shelves. In such equipment you can store dishes and kitchen utensils.

Comfortable dressing tables are most often placed in bedrooms. However, such furniture in the corner design is much less common classicalrectangular and square options.

Corner dressing tables are divided into three types:

• Outdoor. Such instances can be easily located almost anywhere. They are securely and efficiently fixed on the floor with the help of four supports (legs). It is worth noting the mobility of such products. They at any time can be rearranged to a new place, without making great efforts.

• office under the system unit should not be less than 23 cm;
• work area for the user - not less than 60 cm;
• the smallest bedside table size is 40 cm.

The maximum dimensions of the corner furniture are limited by the length and width of the main triangle. With a diagonal orientation, if the size of the long tabletops on the sides reaches the greatest value - 120 cm, the length of the hypotenuse becomes 170 cm, which is not a convenient option, therefore in such instances it is best to install open shelves along the edges.

With an extended perpendicular orientation of the worker, one of the extreme worktops and the angle remains. Here, the lateral part can have a size of 130–140 cm, and the second is almost completely assembled from add-ons and cabinets with drawers or open shelves.
