Space-Saving Solutions: Choosing the Right Bedroom Furniture
Having a compact bedroom does not necessarily equate to cluttered space. Smart furniture and a dash of creativity can make compact bedrooms as sophisticated and royal as any other room in the house.
Furniture companies are constantly finding clever ways to design furniture that can easily adapt in smaller settings. In this blog, we will discuss various types of bedroom furniture that are suitable for smaller spaces.
Accessing Your Space and Needs
Before we start with the cleverly designed multipurpose furniture, let’s get over some of the boring stuff. Here are some things you should consider before purchasing your furniture.
-
Measure the length, width, and height of the room and take notes of any windows and doors in the room.
-
Having a floor plan can help you visualise the furniture placements.
-
Your final step is to make a list of all the furniture you need.
Assuming you have bought a new house and require all the furniture, here are some of the best furnishing options:
Smart Furnishing Options for Compact Spaces
Double Bed/Queen-Size Bed
Price - ₹54,999
While single beds seem like a logical answer, it most probably is not, unless you live alone. If you have a family, double beds or queen-size beds are the best option. These beds are quite comfortable for two people. A queen size bed with storage option like this ‘Royaloak Rome Italian Queen Size Bed With Hydraulic Storage’ is perfect as it can also be used to store bed sheets, pillows, luggage, and shoes. King-sized beds are out of the question because of their size.
Sofa Beds
Price - ₹32,000
If you stay alone, a sofa bed is much better than a single bed, especially if you have a television in your bedroom. You can use it as a sofa for binge-watching your favourite show, and as a bed for sleeping. It can also serve as an excellent choice for hosting house parties and providing additional seating for guests. This ‘Royaloak Penang Malaysian Sofa Bed in Melamine Finish’ is a perfect example of a sofa bed, and guess what? It comes with storage.
Wardrobe
Price - ₹89,999
Considering you have a compact bedroom, your wardrobe can’t be too big, like a 5-door wardrobe. We suggest a classy 3-door wardrobe with storage like this ‘Royaloak Tivoli Italian Sliding Wardrobe 3 Door’. This Italian wardrobe also has 3 drawers, which can be used to store makeup kits, perfumes, and electronics, while the wooden shelves can be used to keep handbags, and showpieces like this ‘Royaloak Mother Baby Elephant’. The wardrobe also comes with 2 cabinets that can be used to store luggage, old clothes, or toys.
Dressing Table
Price - ₹13,999
Dressing tables are versatile pieces of furniture that are compact and versatile. We are obsessed with this ‘Royaloak Tivoli Dresser’. This compactness blended with the visual appeal of this dressing table makes it perfect for smaller spaces. For a smaller space, any furniture with a store is a blessing. Moreover, the mirror in the dressing table reflects light, which improves the aesthetic appeal of the room. This dresser also comes with a small stool, which can come in handy when getting ready.
Tips for Maintaining a Minimalistic and Spacious Look
-
Declutter Regularly: A compact space can look messy and cluttered in no time. It is important to declutter and get rid of unnecessary items. This is where furniture with storage comes in handy.
-
Opt for Multi-Functional Furniture: Choose furniture with built-in drawers, foldable desks, and modular wardrobes to reduce the need for additional furniture.
-
Stick to a Neutral Colour Palette: Light and neutral colours for walls, furniture, and decor create a calm, open atmosphere, making the room feel more spacious and airy.
-
Use Mirrors Strategically: Place mirrors or your dressing tables opposite windows or light sources to reflect natural light, making the room appear larger and brighter.
-
Simplify Decor: Focus on a few key pieces, like artwork or plants, that add character without overwhelming the room. Avoid excessive decorations to maintain a clean look.
