Minimalism, as an interior style, is gaining popularity. This is due, in part, to the fact that in a modern world, overloaded with information, a person wants sometimes to stay in the most simple and free space. A bedroom in the style of minimalism will help to get rid of the accumulated thoughts and stress for a day, relax and restore strength.
Distinctive features of the minimalist interior
Minimalism is a style that uses a limited amount of furniture and decorative elements. Designers strive to achieve the effect of fullness with light and air, lightness. But minimalism is not just the absence of things. This is the desire to emphasize their beauty and self-sufficiency. In the minimalist interior, the characteristic features of each individual piece of furniture or technology are brighter.
In terms of rational use, the minimalist environment has many advantages.
- In a simple and open interior it's easier to maintain order and clean. No dust - a good plus for the bedroom.
- Rooms not overloaded with furniture, look more spacious, which is important in small apartments.
- To change the character and overall impression of a minimalist bedroom is very simple - just change the bedspread on the bed and the decorative elements.
Color as a key element of
Traditionally, minimalistic interior is associated with white color. Indeed, such a bedroom will be filled with light and air and visually perceived more spacious. In addition, the white color of the walls is an excellent background for beautiful furniture and unusual decor items.
The effect, similar to white, produces many light colors: soft blue, pearl gray, light yellow. Warm colors are better to prefer if the bedroom windows face north or northwest. However, choosing furniture and textiles for color walls is more difficult: it is better to give preference to white furniture and curtains in the color of the walls.
In a minimalist bedroom, the walls can also be dark - chocolate, dark beige, gray. In this case, the color of the furniture and the floor should be selected as close as possible to the color of the walls.
Materials and invoices
In an interior that is not overloaded with details, the texture of the materials is perceived brighter, so the choice of coatings for walls and floor must be approached responsibly. The best material for the floor, however, as for all other styles, is a natural wood or a parquet board. Preference is given to wide boards, rather than shallow parquet. The wood species can be any, but the more expressive the pattern, the more neutral color is chosen for the walls. If you need a white floor, then it is worth to stop on a monophonic granite or a bulk coating, under which lay an electric or infrared warm floor.
The walls of the bedroom with an interior in a minimalist style should be smooth and monophonic. As a basis for the paint, you can use plaster or canvas of fiberglass.
Carpet in the bedroom is best avoided. For this, during the repair, care must be taken to thoroughly insulate the floor or to heat it. If it's difficult to refuse from the bedside mats, then you need to find monochrome ones, the same color as the floor covering or walls.
Furniture
To furniture for a minimal bedroom a number of requirements are presented.
- It should have simple shapes and do not attract attention, without ornaments and prominent pens. The facades are preferably monophonic and smooth.
- Enough minimum set: bed, closet( better built-in, as inconspicuous as possible), chest of drawers and chair or chair. Without bedside tables, you can get by or replace them with simple shelves at the head of the bed.
- Ideally, the color of furniture should match the color of the walls - so the bedroom will appear more spacious. An exception can be made for natural wood, but other colors and decorative elements in this case should be minimized.
Decor and Lighting
It's hard to imagine a bedroom without thick curtains. However, they should not attract attention to themselves. The best option - rectangular cloth of monophonic fabric, as close to color as possible to the walls. Traditional curtains can be replaced by roller blinds or blinds, so the window will seem bigger. A beautiful view from the window is one of the main decorations of the minimalist interior. If the windows are forest, park, sky without wires and antennas - then you do not need to hide them.
Traditionally, minimalist interiors use very simple lighting fixtures. A ball or a plate made of glass or perforated metal is perfect. You can use an unusual chandelier, for example, with chandeliers, but then the number of other decorative elements should be reduced. It is necessary to give up the temptation to make a multi-level suspended ceiling - it immediately destroys the feeling of simplicity and free space.
Tips for those who build a bedroom

- The surface of the chest of drawers, curbstones and bedside shelves should be free from jewelry, vases, caskets. Allowed 1-2 elements for the whole bedroom, which are consistent with the rest of the decor.
