Make The Most Of Your Bedroom With 5 Design Secrets They Don’t Want You To Know

A bedroom renovation is one of the most satisfying ones to undertake because it is essentially a personal one. The bedroom is not usually on display, and it is a room where you can inject some of your own personality without fear of design criticism.

If you are about to renovate your space, you will find some bedroom design secrets here that will make it a success. The overriding principle of the project is to make the room a peaceful, clean, uncluttered place that is conducive to healthy sleeping patterns. It isn’t as hard as you may think, if you know how to go about it.

Here are my top tips.

Make It Tidy

It is essential that your new room must be clutter free, and all of your clothing and other items are organised and stowed away properly. The best solutions to both these problems are fitted bedroom furniture and sliding wardrobes. Nothing comes close to the versatility of these marvelous constructions. It is worth losing a few feet of space from one end of the room if that allows the rest of the area to be clean and tidy. The wardrobe can run the entire length of one wall and be as deep from front to back as you wish. There are many inventive solutions to go inside the wardrobe for storing clothes, shoes, and anything else. Because there will be drawers installed in there too, there is no need for separate furniture units. Even the dressing table can be put behind the sliding doors if you request it from the company building them.

Use Lighting Techniques To Set The Mood

Most modern rooms make use of recessed LED downlights in the ceiling. That is unsurprising because these wonders of modern invention are perfect for their purpose. The bulbs are dimmable, last for years, cost very little to run, and give excellent quality of light. Of course, you must provide proper task lighting at either side of the dressing table mirror. The overhead light causes shadows that change the way you look when you are applying makeup. Use table lamps for reading and any other time when the main light source is too harsh; those too can Make use of LED bulbs.

Calm Decor

There is no need for a feature wall in bedrooms. White is an acceptable colour to paint the walls. You may think otherwise because it is bright, but in the evenings it provides a suitable surface for shadows cast by the lamps. If you think white walls make the room seem cold, as many do, use a neutral shade instead, such as ivory or beige. Vivid colours excite the mind; the opposite of what we are trying to achieve here.

Use Rugs

If you have a laminate floor instead of carpet, use some luxurious rugs to step on to when you get out of bed. The mornings are difficult enough without the cold harshness of imitation wood setting your day off to a bad start.

Window Dressing

I strongly advise you to use heavy drapes instead of modern blinds at the windows. Many of them bring a commercial look to the room, but drapes make it appear homely and add to the feeling of warmth that you are trying to cultivate. Pretty windows make your bedroom so much more calm and romantic.

If you address all of the above points correctly, your bedroom will be much more attractive than it was. It may be a room you enjoy spending time in instead of just a place to dress and sleep. That’s all for today, I hope you found my advice useful. Until next time, sweet dreams.
