The bedroom is the most intimate and private place in the house. The atmosphere in it should set a person for a calm and he althy rest. The furniture in her interior sets a certain mood and often the quality of sleep depends on her right choice.
To correctly choose furniture, you can seek help from an experienced designer. But this is not at all necessary, because, following some simple recommendations, you can easily create a set of bedroom furniture yourself.
What furniture should be in the bedroom?
A standard set of bedroom furniture includes the following items:
- bed;
- chest of drawers;
- bedside table;
- dressing table;
- closet.
Furniture should not clutter up the space in the room. Having only the necessary things in the room will ventilate it better and make it look cozier. Excessive workload of the room will create a mess, in which it will be uncomfortable to sleep.
Material
Bedroom furniture can be made from wood, MDF or metal. In somecases it is possible to use plastic models. But the best choice is, of course, wooden furniture that can last for centuries.
Wood is a material that requires careful care and proper processing in production. Not every type of wood is suitable for making quality furniture. The best furniture is made from materials such as:
- ash;
- birch;
- beech;
- nut;
- cherry.
A quality wood bedroom furniture set can't be cheap. If the goal is to save money, you can pay attention to MDF products. This is a good and more affordable alternative to solid wood. It is much more democratic in production, which directly affects its cost. Furniture made from this material is presented in a variety of colors and has a variety of shapes.
It is recommended to pay attention to metal furniture last. Aluminum fittings are not very durable and will not be able to last for a long time. At the same time, iron furniture made of high-quality alloys has good strength and long service life. However, in terms of aesthetics and environmental friendliness, it is significantly inferior to wooden counterparts.
How to choose the best color?
Pastel colors are best for the bedroom. It is recommended to select furniture in ivory, with milky shades or pale peach. These color schemes will be perfect.
Colorwalls are also of great importance. For example, if there is an excess of sunlight in the room, wallpaper made in cold colors will be an ideal choice. The northern room will look better with wallpaper in warm colors.
When choosing furniture, the dimensions of the room should be taken into account. If the bedroom is large, it is recommended to choose furniture made in dark colors. Wallpaper is also recommended to be selected according to this rule. When choosing furniture for a small bedroom, light colors should be preferred. If this rule is not observed, visually the room will look too gloomy and crowded.
In the children's bedroom it is recommended to choose furniture in light pink colors. This will create an atmosphere of comfort for the child. Such furniture will go well with pale blue or light green colors.
Green color calms and pacifies. Nowadays, eco-style is gaining more and more popularity. The interior of the bedroom, made in this style, is perfectly complemented by yellow and other warm colors.
A good solution would be to choose furniture in brown shades. This color promotes good sleep and can be used as a base color. But the red color, although it symbolizes passion, does not fit into the interior of the bedroom at all. It excites the nervous system, due to which a good rest will be impossible.
Classic or modern
The first thing to decide when choosing furniture is style. Now the classic style and modern style are more popular.
Furniture forbedrooms, made in a classic style, are made of precious wood. The emphasis in such a bedroom is always shifted to the bed. This is the key element of the interior that attracts the most attention. Custom-made products can add originality to the interior. In some cases, vintage sketches may be used for this.
Modern style is characterized by light pastel shades. Bedroom furniture in this case is distinguished by its large size. It can be made from wood or metal. In such a bedroom there may also be a table, chairs, a dressing table and a chest of drawers. Furniture can have a mirror or glossy surface. A bedroom with light-colored furniture and a glossy surface will look spacious.
Bed selection
Modern beds can have various mechanisms built into them. For example, back massage devices or headboard lifts. Beds can be laid out or reclined. With drawers available, they can also be used to store clothes, linen, and other items.
When choosing a bed, special attention should be paid to its back. It is she who determines the style of the product. For example, if the back is wooden and carved, this indicates a classic style. In the event that the back has clear lines and is characterized by a complete absence of patterns, it will be a great option for a modern bedroom.
When choosing a mattress for a bed, it must be “tested”. Right in the store you need to lie down on itdifferent positions to make sure that it will be comfortable to sleep on it. The highest quality mattresses are distinguished by their orthopedic properties. Using such a product, you can minimize the load on the spine.
When choosing furniture for a small bedroom, you should pay attention to folding beds. They will help save space in the room.
How to choose a wardrobe in the bedroom?
What to choose: wardrobe or simple swing? If the bedroom is very small, then a compartment will be the best choice. In a medium-sized room, you can use a wardrobe with hinged doors. If there are free corners in the room, you can choose a set of bedroom furniture with a corner wardrobe. This will make better use of the available space.
Spaciousness is one of the main qualities of a closet in the bedroom. It should have not only shelves, but also hangers, trousers and drawers. Be sure to have a mirror, which is located outside the cabinet or inside. The mirror located on the facade at times expands the space in the room. This should be taken into account when choosing a closet in a small bedroom.
Built-in lighting can also be very useful. For example, it can be convenient when the closet needs to be opened at night. Simple light bulbs often burn out. Therefore, it is best to give preference to more reliable LED lighting.
Bedside tables and wardrobes
Undoubtedly, the main items in any bedroom are the wardrobe and the bed. But if in itthere is no other furniture, the room will not be cozy enough.
First of all, you should think about purchasing a small bedside table or cabinet. Also, a chest of drawers can be included in the set of cabinet furniture for the bedroom. Putting things in it, you can significantly unload the space. A dressing table will fit well into the interior of the bedroom.
You can hang shelves on the walls. However, do not force them with a large number of different items. The space in the room can become congested. Because of this, the atmosphere of peace and comfort will disappear.
Bedroom furniture for a teenage girl or boy should also include some additional items. For example, a desktop where you can do homework. Also in such a bedroom there may be large soft toys.
Conclusion
When choosing a set of bedroom furniture, first of all, you need to pay attention to the quality of materials and color performance. The bedroom is the most intimate place in any home, the atmosphere in it should be calm and peaceful. Keep this in mind and don't go overboard.
