Should bedroom furniture match?
Designers often say that your bedroom furniture collection should look like it has come together organically, rather than all at once in a set. It is not necessary to match your furniture. However, wildly differing styles will jar. The best look is furniture with a similar finish but from varying ranges.
How should I lay out bedroom furniture?
The following tips will give you ideas on how to lay out your bedroom:
- The classic bedroom layout involves placing the bed board of your bed against the wall opposite your door, roughly in the centre. This produces a feeling of safety, as well as symmetry, and puts your bed as the centrepiece of the room. As bedroom dimensions can vary, this may not be convenient.
Also, consider your view: if your windows are large and look out over a beautiful vista, you may wish to place your bed facing the windows.
- Try to avoid putting your bed under a window. It will prevent breezes from blowing over you during the night and reduce the chances of weather affecting your bedding. This is also another time when feeling secure is an issue; most people do not like an entrance point to the room being so close to their head.
- If you have artwork hanging over a piece of furniture, make sure that the furniture is wider than the art, or you risk making the artwork seem ‘top-heavy’.
- Placing a bedside table either side of a double bed is a safe and practical solution. However, if you balk at the symmetrical look, use a bedside table (usually a small, square set of drawers) on one side and a long, low chest of drawers on the other.
- A long bench at the foot of the bed can be great for getting dressed while also looking good in the room — if you have enough space.
- A chair is always a nice addition when you want to spend time in your bedroom but do not want to lie on your bed. However, do not make it a dumping ground for bags, discarded clothes and change.
What is the best way to place furniture in a small bedroom?
By following some simple tips you can make the most of the space you have to create a warm and comfy bedroom that still reflects your own style:
- Most people don’t like to push a double bed completely up against the wall, and by leaving a small gap along the side you can maintain full access from either side and still save on space.
- If space is an issue but you are lucky enough to have a walk-in wardrobe, put a chest of drawers inside.
- For small rooms, make the most of the height by using tall and narrow wardrobes and drawers.
- Use high shelving to maximise space; also, fill awkward-to-use alcoves and small indents with shelves that fit snuggly.
- To make the room seem lighter, use lighter colours for your furniture, décor and bedding.
- Mirrors hung around the room will give the perception of space.
