A clothing treatment apparatus includes: a cabinet; a first clothing treatment chamber for accommodating clothes in the cabinet; a machine chamber for supplying steam or air to the first clothing treatment chamber; and a door assembly for opening and closing an opening. The door assembly includes: a first panel having a second clothing treatment chamber for treating clothes formed therein, the first panel being open at one side and being pivotably connected to the cabinet; a second panel for opening and closing the open one side of the first panel; and a partition plate, disposed between the first panel and the second panel, for applying pressure to each of the clothes placed on the first panel and the clothes placed on the second panel.

A dryer includes a pressure plate and a plurality of heating bulbs configured to emit short wave infrared radiation. A hood of the dryer is coupled to an exhaust vent and a fan. One or more sensors of the dryer measure a drying parameter corresponding to at least a portion of an article to be dried. One or more sensors in the exhaust vent monitor the air being drawn from under the hood and through the exhaust vent. A controller receives data from at least one of the sensors, and uses the data to regulate operation of each heating bulb independently of other heating bulbs of the dryer.
