Choosing a style
Everyone has their own personal preferences. We will give only a few recommendations..
- The classic style is one of the most popular. Stucco moldings on walls, ceilings, patterns, curls, draperies, pillows, gilding. Adult option, atmospheric, cozy.

- Modern is a modern style. Simple shapes, clear, smooth lines, laconic colors. Decorating is discouraged.
Lounge in Art Nouveau style
- Hi-tech – bright colors, shiny metallic surfaces, lots of light. Such an atmosphere is not conducive to relaxation. This style is the worst option for a bedroom. But young people might like.

You can adhere to a single style, or you can combine them with each other..
Color scheme
For a vacation spot, you need to choose colors that will please the eye, help you relax. Avoid flashy, poisonous shades. Always focus on your chosen style.
This room is very small, but due to the white color combined with green and pink shades, the bedroom seems to be quite cozy.
Designers recommend using light, calm colors. If the windows face north, use warm shades to compensate for the lack of sun. In very light rooms, feel free to use cold colors..
This cool color design can be easily implemented in a sunny bedroom with south-facing windows.
Finishing
Finishing materials depend on style and color scheme. It is important for health to use environmentally friendly materials.

Small bedroom interior
In a spacious bedroom, you don’t have to worry about functionality. Little ones shackle our creativity. However, there are loopholes here too..
- Consider storage space. It can be hidden shelves, storage boxes, mezzanines.
- Corner furniture takes up less space, frees up the center.
- Light walls, mirrors, large windows visually increase the space.

Decoration and decor for the bedroom
Use two or three muted colors. Focus on the decor. Each style includes its own way of decorating: paintings, tapestries, textiles, pillows, flowers, candles. Choose according to your taste. You can make decor items with your own hands. Photos, figurines or wall murals will add atmosphere to the bedroom, make it individual, finished..

Bedroom furniture
If the bedroom is a place to sleep in a minimalist style, a bed and a chest of drawers are enough. If this is a multifunctional room, then in addition to places for storing clothes (wardrobes, dressers), you may need a desk, cabinets or shelves. The lady will need a dressing table.
Built-in wardrobes built into drywall niches helped to visually “dissolve” the storage systems in the interior.
Make sure the furniture design matches the overall style. You can’t put a pompous four-poster bed with curls in an Art Nouveau bedroom. It will look ridiculous. But some combinations can be very beneficial and interesting. Trust your taste.
Retro furniture is not cheap, but you can turn your old one into a vintage one: glue it over with a cloth or decorate it with applique
Zoning and Planning
If a room performs several functions, it is logical to zone it. This can be done in several ways:
- Color zoning. Sleeping area and work area are designed in different colors.
- Zoning with curtains. Curtains attached to the walls separate parts of the room in part or in whole.
- Arched zoning or zoning by wardrobes. Visually creates the impression of a passage to another room.
- Podium. Discreetly separates part of the room from the rest of the space.

Before starting work, at the design stage, make a plan. It is not necessary to have the skills of a draftsman. There are a huge number of computer programs that can help you plan your room, zone it and arrange virtual furniture..
Even a simple drawing will help you determine the size and arrange the furniture correctly.
