Furnishing the corners of rooms: 12 great ideas to draw inspiration from
When thinking about the furniture for a room, we hardly ever consider a set of furniture that includes corner elements. Traditionally, the various pieces of furniture used are positioned flush with the wall, and so the corners are rarely used. Or it can be that corner pieces cannot be easily found.
Notwithstanding this, corners can be usefully exploited with a bit of lateral thinking. Here are some ideas which could inspire you:

Corner shelves seem like an obvious solution, but they can really make the difference in rooms like the bathroom where extra surfaces are invaluable.

When creating a corner desk, you don't have to steal a lot of space using a triangular shelf: you can also run the table (which will be a series of shelves) along the wall, and at the top you can have a pentagon. It will also be easier to move between the two "wings" of the desk itself.
Corner shelves in the shower cubicle: small but indispensable in many cases.
A corner between two windows becomes the ideal point in which to set up a single-seater, perhaps inside the bedroom or in the office.
