Best Small Bedroom Ideas
Add a Statement Headboard
If you have a small bedroom, you can feel limited when it comes to introducing different patterns and textures. Too many components can overpower a compact space; however, by cleverly curating a selection of striking yet classic and functional pieces, you will find yourself with a room that feels spacious and uniquely yours. The Belle Rattan Queen Headboard Natural perfectly demonstrates how to employ this tip, boasting a rich, textural finish complete with scalloped edging – all in the serene natural shade of a natural wicker weave. A simple yet stunning addition, this piece effortlessly pairs with your bed frame to brighten and bolden your room in a matter of moments. It is also simple to maintain, with a quick wipe clean care routine that makes keeping your space perfect as easy as easy can be.
For a modern Bohemian approach, consider the Weave Queen Headboard from 1825. In keeping with the Belle Headboard, this style is crafted to add a signature edge to your aesthetic while seamlessly pairing with your most fundamental bedroom piece – the bed. The hand-woven finish of the natural rattan frame adds a distinct and dynamic sense of character to the classic piece, which you are invited to coordinate with the Weave Bedside Table for a neat, uniform look. This beautiful headboard fits with your bed, bringing even the smallest of bedrooms to life. Not only does it create a visual focal point at the back of the room, but it also paints a textural yet neutral statement up towards the ceiling, enhancing the openness of the vertical space. Subtle optical illusions are the ultimate smart and savvy hack to trick the eye into thinking a space is bigger than it is!
Use Mirrors to Mimic Space
Round, statement or floor-length mirrors are a fantastic addition to a small bedroom, especially when they are placed to reflect the natural light streaming in through the window. This will help to filter more light into your space, encouraging a brighter, airy feel that creates the illusion of a bigger room. Our Witts Timber Mirror in Natural White perfectly showcases how a subtle addition can tie the entire room together. In the visual style guide below, see how the elegant finish of the washed frame coordinates with chic, minimal bedroom essentials for a stylish look that enhances the impact of your space.
Lay the Foundations With a Rug
Practically speaking, rugs are ultra-soft under the foot and introduce additional warmth to your flooring. When approaching a rug from a design viewpoint, the right piece will lay the foundations for a cohesively refined and stylish space that makes the most out of the available dimensions. Additional layers of texture and tonal contrast anchor the room and bring in more interest, depth, and character without overcrowding the limited space. Expertly crafted from pure jute, our Suffolk rug is made by hand in a textural weave, ideal for introducing a relaxed, coastal-chic tone to the bedroom. It is woven in a tight finish for an additional level of durability, so you won’t have to worry about heavy-duty upkeep in your space. Be sure to layer your bed on top of a spacious rug to open up the space and, once again, trick the eye into seeing more space than there actually is. Choose the Suffolk in a selection of timeless neutrals in dimensions that work for your space for the perfect addition.
Choose a Neutral Palette
When it comes to maximising space, nothing does the trick like a light and breezy neutral palette. Neutral bedrooms are timeless and versatile, and they stop the space from feeling overwhelmed even when you are adding extra furniture into your formation. The New York Bedside Table in Small is designed in clean, modern lines and finished in a bright shade of white, so you can enjoy all the functionality of a bedside surface without overcrowding the room.
