Bedroom design: do it yourself

Modern trends in the design of rooms, and in the design of the bedroom as well, are the absence of unnecessary things. The furnishings are thoughtful and laconic; after placing all the furniture and accessories, there is free space. This is not bad - there is no feeling that something is pressing on you, which contributes to a good rest. If the design of the bedroom is developed taking into account this trend, it should turn out well in any case. If over time you feel that you are really missing something, you can always add the missing element.

In order for the interior of the bedroom to look, it is necessary to adhere to one style in the design. This makes it easier to decide on a color palette, to choose furniture, textiles and accessories. The actual design of the bedroom can be anything, just the most popular at the moment are more concise: modern style or modern, minimalism, hi-tech and oriental or Japanese. The design of bedrooms in one of these keys is chosen by the youth. All of them are characterized by clear lines, the color scheme is often expressive, built on contrasting colors. Respectable people gravitate towards calmer and more comfortable interiors. This atmosphere is created using the classic style, as well as Provence or Scandinavian. Creative people prefer the more extravagant - loft, Art Deco.

Bedroom in modern style

The main rule of Art Nouveau is simple forms that are repeated in different objects. Due to variations of this form in furniture, wall decoration, accessories, a dynamic and, at the same time, laconic design is created. The second rule is that the lines are clean and smooth, without curls and excessive embellishments. Furniture is only necessary, everything that is possible is removed from the eyes. The built-inwardrobes or dressing rooms.

The decoration of the walls in a modern style bedroom is mostly plain or with a subtle graphic pattern. In general, the rule is the same: brevity. One dominant color, one or two, maximum three for emphasis. Moreover, the dominant colors are chosen light, dim. Such "fadedness" is diluted with bright accents.

One of the latest trends is a wall in a brighter color, sometimes in a contrasting color, sometimes in the same color, but in a bright shade. In the bedroom, they usually accentuate either the wall near which the bed stands, or the opposite one. It depends on what you want to pay attention to.

 

Another direction is vertical stripes of a different companion color. Sometimes, instead of accentuating the wall with color, some kind of graphic image is applied, often - photo printing. Plots are also chosen modern, especially popular are photos of the night city, or some others. Then all other items are chosen in the same range as the wallpaper.

The modern style may have some idea that reflects the master's worldview, his habits and interests. For example, some touches of any ethnic direction - eastern, Scandinavian or any other, marine theme, forests ... yes, any that is consonant with your current state.But then the color scheme must be selected from their inherent gamut, or make it neutral.

 

Modern-style bedrooms are often more masculine. The absence of "embellishments" and unnecessary details is what the strong half likes, and also the fact that it is easier to maintain order in such a room.

The design of a bedroom in a modern style can be implemented even in small areas: the absence of unnecessary details and simple lines create a feeling of additional volume, which is good news.

Minimalist interior

This trend in design is characterized by an even more rigid approach to the amount of furniture. There are very few details, just what is needed.

There is also a more strict approach to the choice of colors: almost all furnishings and accessories are made in one color, and so that the design is not boring, monotony is broken with various textures and textures. For example, walls - alternating glossy and matte stripes of the same color, textiles with an interesting texture, etc.

To prevent the interior from being too orderly and austere, you can add a few touches to dilute the monotony. The photo above is a photo wallpaper, an unusual-shaped armchair, textured textiles - a carpet and a bedspread. In the photo below, graphic images on the wall, interesting bedside tables and plants with unusual trunks add variety.

As you can see, here, as well as in modernity, some idea may be present. It is she who brings individual features to the rather cold "clean" style. For example, in the photo below, thanks to the characteristic binding on the doors of the wardrobe, a hint of oriental cultures appears in the bedroom design.

Another style where it is easy to arrange a room for men and a little more difficult for girls, but it is well implemented in small bedrooms, because in addition to a bed, there can only be a wardrobe and a couple of bedside tables. Everything else is hidden or taken to other rooms. As a result, even a small room looks spacious.

Hi-tech in the bedroom

This style is considered not very suitable for the bedroom: it assumes the presence of bright colors, shiny surfaces, metallic details. Agree, it really is not the most suitable environment for relaxation. But when it was young people who stopped before such arguments: the interior is very dynamic, which appeals to the active part of society.

As curtains in such interiors, Roman or roll ones are often used. They are most consonant with the main ideas of the style. The colors are mostly white, gray and brown. The abundance of light is very important. It just has to be a lot.

But the shiny surfaces in the design of the bedrooms almost do not befit even in this style. If there is, it is mainly on the ceiling, maybe in some finishing elements. If you allow some mixing of styles, you can get an interesting symbiosis, as in the photo below.

Classic bedroom design

Do you want a chic interior in the bedroom? You need to pay attention to the classic style.For young people it is too pompous, but mature people like it because of the atmosphere of comfort and coziness. Here they already use chic fabrics, draperies, furniture with gilding and curls. All the attributes of the classics have a place to be.

A characteristic feature of the furniture are high headboards with rich decoration. They can be wood or upholstered fabrics, leather. A banquette or a small sofa in the same style can stand at the foot.

The gamma when decorating a bedroom in a classic style also remains predominantly restrained: only gold tones and traditional ornaments on the walls are added. In this case, plant motifs are more appropriate, but highly stylized. For example, as in the photo above.

Stucco molding may be present on the ceiling and walls: various moldings, columns, frames, pilasters. All of these elements look good in spacious rooms with high ceilings, as does the abundance of draperies on the windows.

 

For more modest dimensions, it is recommended to use more modest curtains (about what curtains for the bedroom are and how to choose, read here).

Provence

This style is more common in women's bedrooms. In Provence, floral ornaments and frills are often used in textiles and on walls. All this is typical for the beautiful half of humanity. Colors - blue, pink, lilac, sometimes green shades. This style is for romantic people: it is very soft and exciting.

 

But in the same vein, a more austere interior can be made, although it undoubtedly belongs to the same style.

The same style can be more rustic: it is not only in cities that people live there. It fits perfectly into interior of a wooden house: Beams are welcome in this design, wooden walls are tinted in light shades.

Japanese interior in the bedroom

One of the most distinctive cultures is attractive Japan. Everyone has heard about the cramped conditions on the islands, and therefore all traditional items are laconic. Colors - gray, brown, white, red. The dominant ones are usually light shades of gray, white, sometimes beige, all the rest are for accentuation in small amounts.

Very often you can see the imitation of traditional partitions made of rice cloth and bamboo - few people can build a house out of wood: not only is it not cheap, such partitions take up a lot of space. Therefore, light partitions delimit the space into rooms. In our reality, they turn into a decorative element: this is how they decorate cabinet doors, ceilings and decorative panels.

Pay attention to the shape of the beds. They are usually very low and made of wood. The base is painted, as a rule, in a dark color, in size it is decently wider and longer than the mattress laid on it. Another characteristic feature is the absence of a headboard. But this option is not suitable for everyone. The photo below shows an idea: how to get out of the situation, make a headboard and not greatly violate the style.
