Is great happiness possible in a small bedroom? Looking ahead - yes, it is possible! Let's get it right.

Ergonomics of space

Strange as it may seem, beauty and grace are subject to a clear logical construction - the ergonomics of space. And in order for the interior of a small bedroom to impress with its perfect form, it is necessary to adhere to certain standards of ergonomics - a rational way to live and interact in space.

Proper furniture layout

Regardless of style preferences, all ideas for furniture layout even in a very small bedroom should meet the following parameters:

• the width of the aisles should be at least 70-100 cm;
• the presence of direct passages between pieces of furniture and a minimum of turns;
• at least 50 cm of free space should be left around the bed on each side;
• if the bed is parallel to the window, the distance from the window to the bed should be at least 80 cm.

Important! If you are tempted by the thought “usefully” use the precious centimeters “stolen” by these requirements, be prepared for bruises and bruises: maneuvering between furniture, doing three bends in two steps - the task is not from lungs.

Bed selection and placement

The main character of the bedroom after the owners is, of course, the bed. When choosing the right bed in any style, you should adhere to the following tips:

• The bed should first of all be suitable for future owners, and only then fit into the interior of the bedroom.
• The length of the bed is calculated based on the growth of a person with a margin of 13 cm. Its width is the sum of the width of the person in the shoulders plus 10-12 cm on each side.
• The height of the bed should be such that the knees of the person sitting on it are bent at right angles; optimal height is 40-60 cm.

Important! You can only put a single bed against the wall. It is better to arrange the double one so that the passage to it from two sides is simple and convenient.

Cabinet installation

In a small bedroom, a closet is best taken outside. Due to this, a small room will become more spacious, lighter and easier not only visually, but also in fact. But often this is not possible. After all, the little bedroom in the apartment was not suddenly - as a rule, and the whole apartment is also small. Therefore, when installing the cabinet, you must adhere to the following rules.

• Open cabinet doors should not interfere with movement around the room. In order not to block the passage, the margin of the swing doors should be about 80 cm.
• A wardrobe with sliding doors or a built-in wardrobe is the most suitable idea for a small bedroom. At least 50 cm of space is required for the swing doors.
• Two narrow cabinets, located along the wall at a distance from each other, form an opening where the head of the bed, a chest of drawers or a dressing table with a mirror organically fit.

The color palette of a small bedroom

The traditional solution in a small room is the use of calm, bright colors that visually expand the space. It is soft beige, light coffee, sunny straw, gray-blue and, of course, white. It is in the bedroom that white extremely generously reveals its potential. And for very small bedrooms, the white color is salvation and a find. It is universal, balanced, very "spacious" and unpretentious. But the totally white bedroom is still a controversial idea.

Tip. White color in the interior of the bedroom should be used very carefully, so that instead of the Scandinavian style, for example, the “hospital”, “operating” style does not work out. Sterility and soullessness are inappropriate in the most private area of ​​the apartment.

A special emotional mood will be created by bursts of bright colors against the background of pastel colors: lavender, green, blue, brown, saturated yellow.

Floor, wall, ceiling

The ceiling of a small bedroom does not have to be bulky, so with intricate hanging structures you need to be more careful. But the stretch ceiling with a glossy surface will create a feeling of depth and height of the room.

Here it is worth recalling the white color. The snow-white ceiling without frills is a classic that will always look decent.

The floors in the small bedroom should also be preferably bright. A combination of two tones of the same color or similar colors is possible. The floor covering laid diagonally, whether it is parquet or laminate, will visually expand the boundaries of the room.

The walls of a small bedroom can be decorated by combining a light shade on three walls with one more saturated - on the fourth. A moderate, concise print is allowed.

Tip. Wall mural on one of the walls is a winning idea in a small room. A gentle abstraction, a landscape with a perspective, a city view from above are exemplary themes of such wallpapers that will create a feeling of depth and space in the bedroom.

Small bedroom furniture

So that the story of arranging a small bedroom is successful, you can take some ideas into service.

1. The basic rule of a small bedroom is that everything that can be taken out of it should be made. Only the bed remains untouchable, everything else should be subject to strict judgment - to be or not to be. A wardrobe, a chest of drawers, a table, chairs, armchairs may well live in other rooms, allowing you to use the bedroom for its intended purpose, and not as a universal room.
2. The design of a small bedroom involves compact pieces of furniture.
3. Place shelves, niches, hanging cabinets vertically on the walls, not forgetting the space above the head of the bed.
4. Arrange the furniture so that when you enter the small bedroom the first in the field of vision are “light”, oversized items.
5. Instead of chairs, use pouffes that can be pushed under the dressing table, freeing up space.

Lighting

In a small room, the traditional technique is very relevant - the addition of the main ceiling lighting with local light at different levels. The combination of diffused upper light and directional light flux in a certain area will allow you to vary not only the level of illumination of the room, but also the mood of its inhabitants.

Tip. Soft light will be created by translucent light lampshades, the lamps of which are directed up to the ceiling, and not down. For the sleep zone, dressing area and working area, its own local lighting is required: spotlights, sconces, table lamps.

Decor

One of the important techniques for decorating a small room is window decoration. Easy drapery of pastel colors from almost weightless fabrics instead of dense curtains is a great idea in this case. Organza, taffeta, Kisei unobtrusively preserve the secret life of the bedroom from prying eyes and do not burden the interior.

The bedroom is the legal habitat of decorative textiles: bedspreads, covers, lampshades, pillows look appropriate and justified here. But in a small room, you should still very carefully apply this technique.

Photographs, paintings, figurines, souvenirs and other trinkets must undergo even more stringent control on the right to be present in a small bedroom. Without reducing reasonable minimalism to excessive asceticism, you can graciously leave two or three beloved little things.

If, having familiarized yourself with all the ideas for arranging a small bedroom, you are still worried that your size is not king, check in practice all of the above. Feel free to experiment with what you have, and you will see what an interesting life will come in your bedroom!
