An important role in the interior of the bedroom is a bed. It can be the most bizarre shape, for example, round or oval, be made of wood, metal or leather, painted in bright and juicy colors or resemble a gentle cloud. It is important when choosing a bed and its decoration. There is not always enough bed linen and bedspreads, sometimes you need additional decor. We want to draw your attention to the canopy bed - its different designs and styles are able to fit into any interior. It will not only decorate the bedroom, but will also become a place for relaxation, as it is pleasant to rest on such a bed, sheltering in the embraces of translucent canvas fabrics.
How to choose a canopy bed
Choosing canopies on the bed, it is important to correctly combine them with the styles and orientations of your interior.
So, a spacious room with a high ceiling, in which there is room not only for sleep, but also for day classes, will decorate beds with a canopy of classical shape. Given the style of the interior, gravitating to the "historical" theme, the rigidity of the geometric skeleton can be softened by graceful waves of thin, almost weightless fabric. A bed under a white, silky drapery, like a fairy-tale sail, conjures romantic dreams.
To transfer this image, curtains are suspended to the top of the frame, which can be closed if desired. On the juicy background of the walls, in contrast to the head of a dark wood, small assemblies of light matter are particularly expressive.
For classic interiors, the canopy design on an adult bed with carved wooden supports will certainly fit. Classics like a solid tree, so this bed will fit very well in an elegant interior.
If someone inherited a solid wooden bed with carved backs and a weighty canopy on massive pillars, one should treat its design with a touch of subtle humor. The original blanket, made in a motley patchwork technique, visually compensates for the severity of the structure. A cloth lambriken with a figured edge, framing a canopy, will remind you of the distant times of feudal campaigns. Solid stands have a functional purpose - you can get off such a high bed, only by holding on to strong supports.
In a modern interior use a wooden bed with a canopy is also possible. Smooth, correct lines of construction without carving and ornaments, often made in dark color, perfectly match with the white flying curtains curtain.
The interior of the canopy can be not only wooden. The top of the structure is often made of draperies, for example from a fabric gathered in a fine fold and tied in the center in the form of a tent.
To create a certain mood, the color of its interior is important: the optimistic ocher gamma smooths the "dictates" of impressive elements from the stained tree. But nevertheless, the high carved headboard and the chiseled pillars of the "prehistoric" bed dominate the decor. To ensure that the bed does not "crush" other elements of the interior, all draperies are performed in a close color palette: curtains on the windows and bedspreads are solved in the same scale as the fabric of the canopy.
The interior of the four-poster bedroom is also suitable for oriental styles. So, the original look in the African interior of the bed of bamboo with a design for the canopy of the same material.
Suitable for safari style in the interior of a massive four-poster canopy made of precious wood. Add to this situation the wooden floors and animal skins near the bed - and a magnificent safari design is created.
Canopy forms for bed
A rich historical heritage sets the theme for improvisation. Today's versions of the canopies are infinitely diverse. In their outlines, three main trends can be clearly seen:
- structures on supports, characterized by the outline of the bed and the space above it;
- suspended structures, including console ones, where the main decorative role is played by the canopy;
- are arbitrary compositions that only draw an abstract image.
Most often in shops you can find a bed with canopy of such forms, as shown in the picture below.
But it is important to understand that these are not the only possible options, as the canopies and canopies above the bed can be arbitrarily bizarre, even curved, which can be emphasized by various means.
It does not matter if the canopy of the canopy almost rests against the ceiling - the delicate "stole" will fix the situation by softening a light cloud of partial shade with a contrasting transition between the light ceiling and the bed frame. It is interesting that the translucent style of the canopy can be supported by a "fun" embroidered coverlet.
Another rather complex canopy design, in which the semicircular "pediments" rise above its flat "ceiling", creating the illusion of the tent outside. Such a "dome" is an excellent find for a high two-level bedroom: thanks to it, the bed not only is not lost in space, but also occupies a worthy place in it.
Externally unsightly canopy racks can easily be masked by original "garlands" made from buffets fabric. In this case, the "sculptured" draperies echo the complex shape of the curtains on the windows. The carcasses are made of motley "summer" material, and the headboard and the back of the canopy are tightened with a modest one-ton cloth.
You can not hide the graceful skeleton behind the magnificent folds of the fabric, sometimes it is enough to emphasize it with light drapery. Actually, the canopy in this case and not - only a metal frame, a thin fabric in the corners and no canopy.
It is important that the bed headboards are combined with a clear contour of the main frame. The meaning of such scenery is exclusively in aesthetics, in witty comparison of the hard texture of blackened metal with the whiteness of tender matter.
Cantilever and cantilever designs of four-poster beds are noteworthy. To the wall above the head of the bed is attached a small rounded frame, which supports a luxurious drapery. On the contour the fabric is trimmed with a thick fringe and taut brushes of a darker or more contrasting color. If the window opening is similarly designed, the image of the bedroom will be more expressive. This styling of the canopy is not of practical value, but the delightful forms reflect the desire for originality and harmony.
Console construction can be arranged not only above the headboard. The sleeping place, oriented along one of the walls of the room, will decorate the symbolic canopy over one side of the bed. A narrow double-sided canopy seems to embrace a small bed. An interesting color solution, both the canopy itself and the interior in general, executed in gentle soft combinations.
