Consider the pieces you choose for your bedroom because you need to be selective, buying furniture that will contribute to the visual whole. Try not to pick ornaments or pieces of furniture that will create a messy or cluttered feel in your bedroom.
Dressers, nightstands and armoires: you name the style and you shall find it. Color and texture: pick something that you like and see the best effect.
Consider Your Needs
And it has to be comfortable while looking the way you want it to – a balancing act between style and function that can be achieved by gauging the size of your room, defining your style, setting a budget, specifying priority pieces and materials, and thinking about how it will be assembled. A bedroom arrangement that looks the way you want it to and adapts to your day-to-day needs is one that can truly serve as a private sanctuary.
Fine-tune your aesthetic by narrowing your search by style: from dark stained classic wooden pieces that will bring traditional elegance to your new look to light-coloured wooden furnishings that bring casual, welcoming warmth to any room. Glamour awaits you when you opt for mirrored or tufted furniture pieces while dual-tone finishes and crystal knobs & pulls will bring style to the mix.
Think about storage, too. A dressing table is a crucial piece of bedroom furniture, but if you are short on space, choose one with slim drawer consoles protruding from its surface.
Style
Whether you desire a more refined contemporary approach to your bedroom furniture or are looking for a warm rustic look, your bedroom furniture choices, from both the colour and fabric or texture to the smallest of fine details – from finishes in wood to nail head trim or tufted upholstery – the bedroom furniture you select is a not-so-small reflection of itself.
Now that you’ve determined your size, it’s time to consider the type and quantity of furniture you need to make it function properly. While a king bed could easily overpower a bedroom on the small side, a queen-sized bed could comfortably turn your large bedroom into a warm and comfortable nest. Likewise, bedroom storage space can come in the form of a dresser or nightstand with drawers. Any accessories you add to add your defined aesthetic also fall into this category. Décor such as rugs and artworks or a bed canopy that offers a luxurious retreat of its own accord are also a great way to pull the look of your space together.
Materials
Once your bed, dresser and nightstands are selected it’s time to pull it all together with a large mirror to reflect more light and an area rug with softer elements like carpet tiles or a plush fabric to soften your feet. Bedding including sheets, pillowcases and duvet covers complete the scene bringing coziness to the space as well as adding a unique palette.
In addition, accent chairs, or vanity units, might also be a great option if you have plans to use your room in a certain way. Another good idea, if possible, is to try out furniture in person before making a purchase decision – sit on, lie in and lounge around on furniture to make sure that it meets your expectations, and examine things like the drawers, doors etc, making sure they work well before committing to any purchase.
Opt for wood hues that suit your decorating sensibility, whether that means reclaimed oak for a lodge-like feel or walnut for a modern edge. Dress up standard pieces with decorative details such as nail head trim or tufted upholstery.
Comfort
Bedrooms are private, quiet places in need of good furniture if they are to become the places you relax in after a long day. Choosing furniture as an expression of your style and personality, as well as for the general look and mood of the room, will make it easier to turn your bedroom into a refuge.
Put together pieces in soft, neutral hues that work with bedding and other home accents that may already exist, or use colour blocking (bold, colourful accent pieces) and seat one’s ass.
Sample-test each piece for comfort by sitting and lounging long-term on chairs and beds. Many stores offer in-home trial deliveries to make life easier for you. If you’re happy with your selections’ comfort, measure up each piece for your bedroom capacity – how much can you fit before it looks like a clutter-fest and windows and doors can’t open?
Test It Out
When buying for a bedroom, you might want to add a finishing touch by buying a dressing table. Aside from keeping clothes in order, a dressing table helps to reduce clutter and provides a place to store fresh sheets as well. For big bedrooms, opt for a one or multi-drawer console from tabletop to the floor, while for small spaces, go for one with slim legs instead.
Test out bedroom furniture before buying, and that includes more than sitting on chairs in a showroom; make sure to test out sleeping on beds, and opening and closing drawers to mentalise about possible problems and concerns you might not have paid attention to if you had just visited a showroom.
