Narrow bedroom design

Ways to increase space

There is one real way to increase space - another layout (joining a balcony or an adjoining room). It is troublesome, expensive and not always affordable: either there is no balcony, there is no “extra” room for unification. It remains to increase the space visually - with the help of decoration, furniture and decor.

Division into zones

Or zoning. The narrow long room must be divided into two parts - a sleeping area and a place for rest / a work area / a place for storing clothes (a dressing room). In a narrow bedroom, it is appropriate to select the border with a thin partition or a small shelving, and better visually - using different colors on the wallpaper.

A great solution would be to create an accent wall.

Pay attention to the fact that the emphasis is on a long wall, and not on a small and narrow one.

However, on a small wall at the head of the accent looks good.

The real project of a narrow bedroom with a loggia is made in a classic style.He combined two rooms, which allowed to create a working area on the balcony.

A small 2 × 4 bedroom looked hopeless, but no - see for yourself. The designer skillfully combined the box with a pair of drawers for storing things and decor. Nothing extra!

Decor

He is often underestimated, but in vain. After all, all these mirrors, paintings, blankets and pillows visually transform the space - and even increase it. To increase the narrow bedroom, use a mirror - large, under the style of the room. Place it over the headboard (very good if the mirror is approximately the width of the bed). Instead of a mirror, you can use gloss - for example, decorative panels and even wall cabinets with a shiny surface.

If there is a window at the head of the bed, move the mirror to any of the wide walls.

In Khrushchev will look good picture with the prospect of a wide wall. It will visually expand the room and create an accent.

Recommended interior styles

Scheduled repairs in a narrow bedroom are no reason to give up your favorite style. You can embody any of them even in a small room - see for yourself.

  • Provence looks good - light, airy and fresh interior in light shades. Pay attention to the harmony of colors: green walls are combined with pillows and vases of a similar shade.

Vintage rooms are particularly original and are ideal even for a small area.

  • If you want something more modern, look at the selection of bedrooms in the style pop Artwhere the latest trends and pop chic are combined with retro.
  • Difficult to create in a small bedroom classic style and its subspecies (English, Renaissance, Baroque)Since these options require large pieces of furniture and large areas. If the bedroom is quite spacious (albeit a bit narrow), then the classic has a place to be.
  • Style modern in a narrow room will be very helpful.

Whatever the size (and shape) of your bedroom, you can create an interior of absolutely any style in it. It is important to consider the features of the chosen style and follow it. In provance a lot of textiles are welcome, and not very long curtains in the bedroom will be useful. The loft is characterized by minimalism, natural materials are used for the decoration and furniture. In such rooms it is quite possible to do with finishing the accent wall with natural stone.

Ideas for zoning rooms

Loft style bedroom seems cozy and stylish. due to the successful selection of warm and cold colors. Please note that the central (narrow) wall is warm, the two side (wide) - cold. Their combination visually expands the space.

Excellent idea - the location of the bed in the back of the room and a “game” with two colors (blue and white). Contrast is created by white and “black” (blue). Complements its snow-white textiles, and dilutes - brown wooden furniture.

If the room is narrow, then this is a good opportunity to create a cozy bedroom thanks to curtains. They can be used as partitions or simple decor.

An interesting idea - the location of the bed in the center of the room, closet - in its headboard.

Zoning a long room with one window at the end of color is the best idea. The sleeping area can be indicated by a dark color, the second half - more light, contrast.

A good variant of the interior in a rectangular room - a bed and a small rack. In this room organically looks modern.

Color spectrum

The light (snow white or beige) bedroom is a classic of the genre. Light shades visually make the space larger and hide its imperfections.Want to get a relaxing atmosphere - boldly paint the walls in white or beige, and it can be diluted with bright accessories, like textiles and not very large furniture (armchairs, dressers).

They say that the dark color of the walls - not for the bedroom, and certainly not for the narrow. Nothing like this. Brown or gray, blue or black - all of these options are ideal for creating an intimate setting, they will blur the boundaries of the room. How many squares in it, no one would guess. Only to paint all 4 walls in black designers do not advise. Choose 1-2 walls and paint them dark. Do not forget about the contrast and make the other two surfaces lighter - white, beige or accent.

The contrast (or accent) wall will help to visually expand the walls - it can be alone. It must be supplemented with textiles from the same color range.

Finishing materials and wallpaper

In a narrow bedroom you need to use several colors (and even textures) of wallpaper. Designers recommend that a narrow wall be ennobled with warm shades of beige, yellow, and brown. They visually bring the wall. The other two parallel long walls should be painted in cold colors - frosty white, gray, blue, lilac (to visually separate them from each other and expand the space).

Short walls can be decorated with horizontal stripes, which create the effect of wide walls. Window on a small wall curtain curtains with vertical stripes, you get the same effect.

To decorate the room, use light shades of wallpaper and floor coverings. Dark floor will make the room even smaller.

Selection and placement of lighting in the room

Lighting advantageously emphasizes the proportions of the room (albeit artificially created). For a narrow bedroom is not suitable spot lighting, located on its perimeter. This design move is suitable for a square room. The best choice would be a classical chandelier (strictly in the middle), as well as a pair of floor lamps made in the style of the room.

Cold daylight in the bedroom is not needed. Prefer fixtures with a soft diffused light. A window in the bedroom is a very good option; it is this that gives a large proportion of the lighting during the day. The window should be open or not cluttered with furniture - a chest of drawers, a wardrobe, a shelving with books.

The quality and amount of lighting in a very narrow room is indirectly affected by mirrors, with which the space looks both bigger and lighter.The mirror in the bedroom does not need to be placed opposite the bed, better - at its base, on one of the big walls or where there is more light (at the window or near the chandelier).

How to choose furniture: the rules of arrangement

The main piece of furniture in the bedroom is the bed. No sofas and couches will replace the full double bed with orthopedic base and elegant back (or functional - with shelves for books). The bed is usually installed at the window, parallel or perpendicular - it depends on the dimensions of the room.

In the narrow bedroom you can arrange a bed parallel to the long walls - this is how the ideal square shape of the room is created with the help of furniture. It is very important that the bed is approached from two sides (at least half a meter), otherwise it will be impossible to fill it in the morning or put the bedside tables. If the bedroom is extremely narrow and so small that the bed is the only furniture that fits in it, place it in the corner (farthest). The bed in the corner looks quite cozy, and the next corner can be occupied with a small chest of drawers or a table for storing small things.

Bed with a podium suitable for a narrow bedroom - the elevation in the room will create the desired square and zone the room on the sleeping area and a place to rest. Place the podium with a bed away from the entrance to the room. The hill with an integrated mattress should be in the back of the room.

Visually expand the space of the bedroom will help the mirror - place it at the head of the bed (if there is no window there), but do not hang right in front of the bed (bad sign). Psychologists, astrologers and others do not recommend hanging in the bedroom a lot of mirrors, to see yourself in a dream or whenever you get out of bed. The mirror is located either at the headboard or at the other end of the room.

If the meters allow, then a wardrobe can be placed in the bedroom. It would be better if it is a coupe full-wall to the ceiling. The closet is ideal even for a tiny bedroom in which you relax and dress, store personal items. It will be invisible at first glance and will create a square-shaped room. The design of the coupe does not interfere with everyday life and does not "steal" expensive meters. It can become a whole accent in the room and help in its zoning.

Speaking about the storage system, do not forget about the beds with a lifting mechanism or drawers. They significantly unload a small apartment and allow you not to install another wardrobe in the bedroom, not clutter up the balcony. You can equip the storage system directly above the bed - a pair of wall cabinets looks harmonious in the interior and takes the load off the floor.

A desk with a chair in the bedroom is an option chosen by many. If the house does not have room for the office, you can equip it near the bed.

The basic rule of placement of furniture in a narrow bedroom - do not put everything along the walls. Leave room for space. For a more or less square room, designers advise arranging furniture with the letter P, but better with the letter G. If you choose the first option, then put massive furniture on one wall (desk, chest of drawers, dressing table), and on the second, lighter (armchair, chair mirror

It is important to furnish the room with furniture in the same style, but it is not at all necessary to use the same materials. Let the bed be metal, select the wooden dresser. This is the perfect solution for country music.

Choosing textiles

For a narrow bedroom suits textiles with a geometric print - stripes, rings, squares.Be sure to use a strip: horizontal on the bedspread or vertical on the curtains.

You can choose a single set of textiles for the window and bed. In a narrow space looks very good round pattern.

Very good, if all the textiles in the bedroom will be harmonious and executed in one color. Bed linen, rugs, bedspreads and pillows with a print are the best choice for the bedroom.
