Read MoreGreat bedroom ideas does not apply to only big spaces to express functional and beautiful design.
Interior design experts at Elements ID Consultants prove that size is not comparable to supreme style. In fact small bedrooms may be a blessing for a better night’s sleep. Stimulating activities like watching television and work disrupt sleep patterns. So the less you have in the bedroom, the less there is to do but – sleep. Here are ways to amplify that cosy bedroom space.
Layer textures
In smart bedroom ideas, headboards are a great way to establish a bedroom’s theme and palette. This room’s statement wall in herringbone wood introduces earthy tones in the room. The grey upholstered headboard reinforces the colour scheme while offering a cosy texture to the mix.
Add a creative storage
Bedsides are an essential space often overlooked in bedroom design. Extended side tables from a bedhead allows helpful tabletop storage for glasses, clocks and phones. The space underneath can be maximised for books and such.
Neutral palette
A neutral palette is ideal for small bedrooms and visually opens up the space. Stick to one shade and apply throughout for walls, floor and furniture. Opt for white beddings and a neutral drapes which can achieve a layered look without relying on bold pops of color, which can feel cluttered.
Lighting strikes
When space is a constraint, consider hidden lighting in a drop ceiling feature, behind custom wall units and down lighters. Keep cables well-hidden to accentuate a clean and uncluttered silhouette.
Under bed storage
Consider storage under the bed to free up floor space. There is so much real estate underneath! A customised bed frame that includes drawers underneath keeps the room looking neat and organised. Keeping the bed against the wall also maximises on floor space.
Use vertical space
When in doubt, go upwards. Add floating shelves for a display showcase and storage system. With a desk built in, you have a neat study nook.
