If you're renovating your room or moving in a new space that is not big enough to put all the things you want in it, then putting fitted bedroom furniture is the solution to your problem.
But before you start shopping for furniture, make a plan first that includes a list of the things you want from a bedroom. These include the things you want to do here like watch TV, a place for you to work, or if you just a plain room where you can sleep. Do you want a big bed or lots of storage? And also the theme you want for your bedroom. Make sure though that all your plans are feasible.
The Plan
Begin by sketching a plan of the structural elements such as windows, doors and chimney breast- essentially all the things that are immovable. After which, you can experiment on the position of key pieces i.e. wardrobe, chests, and beds whilst keeping in mind to allot space for drawers to open and to walk around the bed.
Heart of the Bedroom- The Bed
Choose the biggest bed possible since disturbance from a partner is one of the common causes of sleep complaints. Position it in an obvious area and put the headboard up against a wall but some lateral thinking might free up some valuable space. Even if you don't believe in feng shui, it's still better to plan your room so that you’ll not end up placing your bed right behind the door since this can make your room feel quite closed in.
Built-in Options
Fitted bedroom furniture is an ideal choice since it goes from ceiling to floor allowing no gaps for dusts to enter and make the most out of awkward areas like slope ceilings. Furthermore, when you opt for full height wall, you can make useful high cupboards for storing little used items such as extra beddings and hats. And what’s best about fitted bedroom furniture is the luxury you have of choosing your own coordinated motif.
Wardrobe matters
The secret behind a relaxing bedroom lies behind cupboard doors. So it is necessary to also allot time in planning the inside of your wardrobe where you'll discover how many closes you can fit in with hanging rails, drawers with dividers, full extendable drawers, and double-height hanging rails.
Flooring
Given that your bedroom receives a lot less traffic than other parts of the house, you have the luxury of putting more textured carpets like a loop-pile and opt for lighter shades. Laminates and wood floors, either engineered or solid, are fast becoming popular choices as bedroom flooring and can also be combined with underfloor heating.
The overall look and atmosphere
Your bedroom is your own little private place so you have the opportunity to reflect your personality on its appearance. Don't be afraid to mix and match wild colours and motifs and add glam elements like mirrored furniture and metallics.
Nevertheless, keep in mind that your bedroom is the one place where you should feel completely relaxed so make sure to minimise if not totally avoid distractions (TV, computer) or have them built-in so you can hide them when not in use.
