High double beds

High bed - a bold decision. Not everyone will decide to put such furniture at home. But with a well-thought-out design, high double beds can become not just an interior decoration, but also an incredibly functional thing.

When people do not want to put a classic bed or a sofa in the bedroom, something “modern”, like a low couch, almost flush with the floor or a stylized bed on wooden pallets comes to mind. High beds are not so popular, although they have great functionality.

In particular:

• This is a great solution for a small bedroom. Yes, yes, a large and bulky bed under a bed has drawers and cabinets in which a lot of things can be arranged. In fact, the bedroom does not have to buy and put a dresser or wardrobe. There you can place bedding, personal items. Often there are shoes or items of clothing out of season.
• It looks very pompous and "with a claim." Such furniture will make everyone think, inventing a design, or even hire a specialist. But everyone who even sees the corner of your bedroom will be delighted.
• A good solution for those who can not tolerate drafts, or when the apartment "pulls" the wind on the bottom.

Most often, such furniture is made to order. To do this, you need to carefully measure the room and decide how much of this space will take the bed.

You can decorate it richly - a canopy, a lot of pillows, bedspreads with tassels and ruches are perfect here.

If the bedroom is large enough and there is a place to store other things, then you can order a bed with high legs. She has her own charm. If you plan to create a storage system inside, you will need to think in advance what and how you will store there.

Of the shortcomings of such models can be noted bulkiness, the inability to quickly move the bed. Such a model should not be acquired by people who love to do a permutation without end. High bed can make the room dark, so it is best to put it in a bedroom with a large window, light walls and high ceilings.

The most important purpose of the bed is rest and sleep of a person. Therefore, no matter how beautiful it is, the most important thing is its convenience. The bed must be “tested” - lie on it, try to climb and get down. If the model is really tall, you may even need a small stepladder - such things look very nice in the interior.

Be sure to consider the slatted bottom and carefully consider the choice of mattress. All this will make the bed as comfortable as possible.

Feng shui fans will have to reject the idea of ​​a storage box - according to the rules of this Chinese “science,” air must circulate freely under the bed. It is better to buy a bed with high legs. It can be beautifully decorated with a veil, but under the bottom you still do not need to store anything.

If a bed is for two, be sure to think about how it will be possible to approach it - in theory, it should be possible to climb on it from two sides. Accordingly, ideally, it should stand in the middle of the room so that the passageways to the left, right, and at the foot are free. Allowed to put the bed closer to the window, but there must also be a passage.

If the high bed has drawers at the bottom, then enough space should be left on both sides - the drawers should have space to be pulled out. Be sure to think about the presence of bedside tables. If the bedside table does not allow to open the box, then it is worthwhile to find another model of the bed. Another option is to abandon the bedside tables and hang small shelves on the sides of the walls. You can set an alarm clock on them, put your phone, watch, hand cream, glasses and your favorite book. It is very important if you have a high bed hang small sconces on both sides. This will create additional sources of light and complement the interior.

You can create many styles with a high bed, but the best will be classic, oriental and American:

• Classics presupposes mostly light colors. The bed must have a back and foot. The back can be rectangular, figured.Decorated with intricate carvings or carriage stitches. If the foot of the bed is not, you can put a small bench in the legs. A furniture set will look very good if there is a chest of drawers or a locker in the same style along with the bed in the room.

• You can try to create a bedroom in the Provencal style. To do this, it is worth picking up a high forged bed (or with wrought iron details) on the legs. The headboard and footboard of such furniture are decorated with twisted metal patterns. Both black and white look equally good.
• American style high bed looks solid and solid. This is quite massive furniture (and is done, by the way, very often from an array). "American" bed always has a back - wooden or covered with cloth. Very good on the headboard looks carriage fastener. The headboard can be very high - almost the entire wall. Such models are best ordered with drawers at the bottom - the style allows it.

• To create an atmosphere in the bedroom of the fairy tales "1000 and 1 Night", you can purchase or make a high four-poster bed. It can be located on column supports on four sides of the bed, or it can be attached to a ring located on a sheet. Both look equally luxurious.The headboard and footboard of such models are usually figured, intricately decorated and replete with ornaments. In such an interior (Turkish, Arabic, Indian) a high round bed will look great. It usually does not have a headboard or sides on the sides, so it must be large enough not to fall in a dream.
