A guide to creating a super cool urban bedroom
Our bedrooms are no longer mere pit stops where we drop in after a long and tiring day at work only to wake up in hurried circumstances and get on with the daily grind again. With the right furniture, color palette, and décor pieces, our bedroom can be transformed into a serene sanctuary where we catch up on emails, watch our favorite web series, and sometimes come up with brilliant ideas while we rest in our beds with our laptops. .
Some rooms double as home offices, which means most of us spend a significant portion of our lives in our rooms doing REAL WORK. That’s why creating the right kind of environment with the right kind of pieces is essential. Here’s our little guide on how you can set up a bedroom that’s both a personal island and a comfortable sleeping space.
1: It always starts with the bed
Of course, this is the duh-uh starting point of your bedroom story. Your bed is the star of your narrative, that said, it should be a well-developed character of your inner story, which means you need to consider your room design, practical needs, and style preferences before zeroing in on one. bed.
If you have the space, you can go for a grand master suite feel by opting for a larger-than-life piece, something like our queen bed with stainless steel elements. If your bedroom is more of a multi-purpose space that transforms into a guest room, living room, nursery, or home office in the blink of an eye, the Cubed Daybed from Innovation Living will lend itself just as well. as high impact as high impact. functional part.
2: Think of the usefulness
If you, like us, also have something BIG for that dreamy boutique hotel vibe, we suggest adding practical pieces to the mix to keep it simple and elegant. Bookcases, table lamps, bedside tables, poufs, benches, armchairs and two-seater sofas. Along with your anchor piece (bed), let practicality guide you in choosing other décor accessories for your bedroom.
3: Demarcate a rest area
Whether or not space is at a premium, a bedroom that has a nook dedicated to a small set of seating always delivers that elegant hotel appeal. As we said before, our rooms are more than just places where we stop to rest and catch our breath, we also do our professional work. So a comfortable set of seats that includes a side table to store your laptop and other essentials and a comfortable chair that offers a relaxing position will be a great addition.
4: Fix the dresser
Here you can let your personality shine through, whether it’s quirky, formal, fun, or anything in between. Adorn the surface of your side table, nightstand or dresser with pieces that give you the same effect as catnip on a cat. Boxes of trinkets that look like books, a couple of wacky knick-knacks, a golden ship, or anything that floats your boat. It would be great to create a vignette with some of your favorite trivia and have your own personal design moment.
