Many people in modern apartments claim a small bedroom causes inconvenience. But, with the right use of the space, they can avoid discomfort and other issues. Although your bedroom has limited square footage, you have to arrange furniture strategically. Moreover, you may add modern storage solutions and decors to make the room appear spacious.
Today, we’ve compiled a list of the best ways to optimise the space in your small bedroom.
Invest in a side table and a tall wardrobe
You can maximise the storage space in your bedroom by installing multifunctional furniture. Replace your bulky nightstands with a sleek piece of furniture. The colour scheme of your side table should match the existing colour combinations. Your new furnishings need to blend well with current furnishings to avoid distractions. You may also install a tall wardrobe that reaches the ceiling. Symmetrical full-height closets on each side of your bed will make you feel cosy. Sliding wardrobes also help you save some space – no more doors opening outwards.
Push to your bed close to your room’s wall
Your bedroom will appear more spacious if you move your bed from the centre to the side. Try to reduce the space you leave on a particular side. For instance, you should not centre the bed with equal space on the sides. Rather, you have to move the bed to your right-hand side. If your bed is placed against the wall, create a pile of pillows.
Order custom-designed furniture
If your room shape is odd, order custom-designed furnishings. Standard rooms have a square or rectangular shape where you can easily accommodate large furnishings. For example, if your room has an A-frame design, choose a dresser that easily fits into the space.
A custom-designed desk is a perfect choice for rooms with a small alcove. You may look for online retailers specialising in custom bed furniture.
Hide the clutter
Your bedroom is a personal space where you want to feel cosy. With proper storage systems, you can maintain tidiness in your bedroom. Hide the unattractive items while keeping the essential objects accessible. Some people invest in nightstands equipped with drawers to keep everything organised. Your laundry basket can also be kept hidden behind the closed doors of a tall wardrobe.
Use headboards for displaying items
You can make the best use of the headboard by organising small items. So, the space behind the bed must not go to waste. If you have showpieces or decorative elements, use the headboard to display them. However, to hide them, you may choose a headboard with closed doors or drawers. A taller headboard will also provide more storage space.
Match the drapes to your wallpapers
Another way to make the space look bigger is to match wallpapers to curtains. If the wallpaper and drapery designs are almost the same, they will maintain consistency. It will also distract the viewer’s attention from the space size to the design.
So, these are some ways to use the optimal space in your bedroom.
