The main ways of arranging furniture in the bedroom
There are three basic furniture layouts in interior design:
- Symmetrical;
- Asymmetric;
- Circular.
We also need to choose one of these schemes in order to properly furnish the bedroom. You can arrange everything in your own way. But you’ve probably tried this before. Otherwise, they would not be looking for a way to make it more beautiful. Therefore, now in detail about each of them, in order to choose the most suitable one in the future and test it in practice.
Symmetry
When you square bedroom and the question arises, how to arrange bedroom suite , ideal balanced circuit. Paired objects or furniture of the same size are installed opposite each other. For example: two bedside tables located on both sides of the bed are a symmetrical way of arranging furniture.
Psychologists say that the symmetrical scheme is ideal for perfectionists, people who are pedantic, inclined to organize order in all their affairs. Symmetry creates a cozy, calm atmosphere – it is difficult to think of something more suitable for organizing a quality holiday.
Asymmetry
Have you got an irregularly shaped bedroom with niches like knightsbridge bench, indentations and complex layouts? Apply an asymmetrical arrangement of furniture. Its essence is to select a single focal point in the room, and arrange the rest of the objects around it. A bed can serve as such a point. It is installed as it is convenient for you, and the rest of the items are scattered in the corners and niches.
Designers recommend, when choosing an asymmetric arrangement of furniture, adhere to the principle of a swing, alternating high and low objects: a low bed with a soft back and a high wardrobe, a low pouf – a chest of drawers higher.
Round
The universal method of arrangement is circular, suitable for rooms of any layout and area. Here, too, one focal point is needed, around which the rest of the objects are collected. But furniture doesn’t have to be that focal point – sometimes it’s just a carpet.
General recommendations for arranging furniture in a compact bedroom
Let’s first decide what kind of furniture in the bedroom is indispensable. It is with her that we will deal in attempts to correctly and conveniently distribute everything:
- Soft bed;
- Cupboard;
- Chest of drawers, bedside tables;
- Mirror.
If a large wardrobe is already in another room, then it is not necessary to put the same in the bedroom, you can get by with a chest of drawers for the most necessary things, for example, for storing linen. And if you order a bed with an orthopedic base and a lifting mechanism, with a linen niche under the base, you can also store non-seasonal clothing there, etc.
When the area of the bedroom allows, it will be completed with a banquet, ottoman, dressing table.
When arranging all this furniture in the room, it is important to adhere to certain rules:
- Even in the smallest bedroom, a passage of at least half a meter should remain between pieces of furniture, otherwise you will have to stumble over the foot of the bed, on the chest of drawers – not a very pleasant prospect, as for a room where, in fact, everyone should rest, and not count bruises on their legs.
- It is generally advisable to leave a meter wide space in front of the chest of drawers, so that you can stand in front of it, and fully extend the drawers when necessary.
- Before putting furniture into your bedroom and trying to figure out where to place it right away, measure the room, sketch it out on paper or in an online planner, and try to arrange the furniture first. Moving objects on paper is much easier than in reality.
