Bedroom Furniture Buying Guide

Your bedroom is your personal space. It's your special haven where you can take it easy and let everything hang out. You relax in your bed after a long day, and prepare to face another day. This is why it is important to make your room as cosy and comfortable as possible.

To furnish your room, and create the perfect mood and ambience, you need to consider several things. These include the size of the room, the colour theme you prefer, and your budget. You want furniture that you can use for a long time; thus, you need to get the right pieces.

Buying the Right-Sized Luxury Bedroom Furniture

When selecting pieces to complete your bedroom puzzle, the size of the room matters. For one, you or your kids wouldn’t be comfortable sleeping in a cramped room.

You need to make sure that your bed or your kids’ bunk beds, as well as other bedroom furniture, fit well. Note that the bigger the room, the more area you can play with. However, not everyone is lucky enough to have the benefit of space.

Another factor to consider is if there are existing furniture or you just want to add or replace some pieces. Refrain from getting a lot of large pieces as it will only crowd the room, and it is supposed to be a space to rest and relax.

If the bedroom has unique angles and alcoves, work with these. For example, you can position the bed frame there or place a bedside table. If you want a king-sized bed, measure the available space to make sure that the large bed is suitable for the room.

After you have decided on the bedroom essentials, determine if you still have space for any extras you want to include. Make sure that the additional pieces wouldn’t unnecessarily cramp up the room.

Maximising the Available Storage Space

Aside from being a place to rest, the bedroom is also where you store living essentials like your clothes, bed linen, jewellery, and other personal stuff. Determine how much storage space you will need. You’ll be surprised at how fast space disappears once you start transferring your clothes and personal effects.

Your clothes consist of pieces that vary in style and size. Based on all the clothes you want to keep, find out how much wardrobe space you need. If the room is small, you can consider wardrobes without doors, and instead have drapes or something similar for cover. This way, you can eliminate swinging doors that can only limit your movement.

With a little creativity, you can easily find extra bedroom storage space. For instance, a modern bedside table usually has drawers that you can use for small pieces like jewellery. The wardrobe also has some space on top. Just make sure not to stack things too high. Not only would it be an eyesore. It also poses risks of falling and causing injury.

If you’re furnishing your kids’ room, the right bunk beds can be a great space saving solution. Single-tier models offer lots of space for storage underneath, so it is easy to keep the bedroom all neat and tidy. Beds for small children usually don’t occupy a lot of space, leaving more storage space to use.

Your Personal Style Matters

Your bedroom reflects your personality. Like most people, you spend around 60 hours in the room each week. This is why you want to be at ease each time you step into your bedroom.

If you’re a minimalist who prefers modern designs and clean lines, let your décor show your preference. If you are on the traditional side who likes the look and feel of wood furniture, then adorn your room with wooden pieces.

Also, keep in mind that there’s no rule that requires you to have furniture in the same style, colour, and type. You dictate the tone since it is your own space.

While you cannot buy all the furniture you need in one go, you can add pieces one at a time until you complete all the furniture you have in mind. Start with the essentials first, like the bed and the wardrobe, and complete the rest when you have enough budget.

Must-Have Items for the Bedroom

While people have varying needs and preferences, there are some items that are necessary to have in the bedroom. These include the following:

Bed

Whether it is for adults or for kids, the most important considerations when looking for one are comfort and size. The bed must be of the right width and length, and have a strong frame that can support a restful sleep.

Chest with Drawers

Whether you want a modern or traditional set, make sure that it has enough space to organise and access your linen, underwear, and other small clothing pieces.

Wardrobes

Make sure that your wardrobe is nowhere near any moisture in the room as it is supposed to keep your clothes warm and dry. You should choose a shape and size that will fit the available space, and the amount of clothes you need to store.

Extra Furniture and Décor

If there is some extra space left, you may want to have a dressing table with glass mirror where you can sit as you prepare for work or to go out. It should also provide some extra storage space where you can put your smartphone, books, glasses, or other essentials that you need to be within reach while you’re in bed.
