Creating the perfect living space is a smart balance of colour and coordinating furniture and the bedroom is no exception. Your bedroom should be the perfect space for relaxing and sleeping and therefore should get something of a priority when it comes to decorating. There is nothing relaxing about trying to sleep in a mishmash of colour and clutter, so it is time to take control and get your bedroom up to scratch. Bed SOS has some great ideas for making sure your bedroom is the perfect space.

Decide on a Theme

There are lots of great themes for the bedroom but remember that colour can change the mood. Bright and acidic colours are perfect for living spaces but as a bedroom can make it hard to switch off and relax. Softer, muted colours work well in a bedroom with perhaps a splash of brightness on a feature wall. So, your first challenge is to pick your colours. Blues, purples, cream and chocolate all work well in a sleeping environment. You could opt for plain walls, and patterned curtains and duvet cover or vice-versa but again there is an argument for keeping it chilled and mellow as loads of patterns and colours can send the brain into overdrive and make it much harder to sleep.

Pick a Bed

In most rooms, the bed will be one of the most significant pieces of furniture. Certainly, in a room with a kingsize bed, you are looking at a large bed that can either make or break the whole look and feel of the room. There is such a wide selection of bed bases on offer that you have scope to really personalise and set the scene. Wooden bed frames tend to be more imposing that metal so if space is a premium you might want to consider opting for the latter. A divan bed is designed for practicality, and often they are not the best looking, but these can be hidden with valance sheets. Bed makers are getting on board with the idea of using the bed to make the internal decor work better, and therefore you will find a range of coloured beds in various finishes. Velvet beds have enjoyed a run of popularity and feature upholstered frames in a variety of colour to give the room an opulent look.

Consider Storage

The other useful features of many bed frames are the storage they offer, so as well as finding the colour and style of bed that best compliments your decor, have a think about storage. Whether you opt for an ottoman bed or one with drawers you can really make a room look bigger by removing clutter into the storage offered by the bed. This gives you space to store clothing or other things that you struggle to accommodate, and the room look is not impeded in any way. With so many different styles and colourways on offer finding the perfect bed to match the colour scheme of your room should prove to be a fun and enjoyable activity.
