Mad ideas for a bedroom

What ideas do designers offer to a person who decides to make his bedroom exquisite, unusual, such that in the evening he is enveloped in a blissful slumber, and the morning begins with a sense of delight? Can they surprise someone who has already viewed hundreds of directories?

Believe, can! In the abundance of offers, there are absolutely insane ideas for the bedroom, which seem too detached from reality. And in vain. For many of them are easy to implement, having received a new sense of comfort and drive from their own audacity.

On the contrary, some of the recommendations seem to be full of nausea – ideas so habitually sound, for example, about the bold color design of the bedroom. But did many try to follow them? Coloristic conservatism has tremendous inertia. Look around – either everything is in beige-chocolate, or everything is piebald and … boring.

So, let’s start with color ideas for the bedroom.

Stunning white

Nothing so affects psychological comfort as much as color. The lucky, fresh color of the bedroom gives instant happiness every morning.
And every morning can drive a person into depression that dull, inexpressive disgrace, which is often defined as “modest and practical.” No! Practically it is to be happy and get pleasure from every minute spent in the house, especially in the bedroom, so ideas about color design come first.

Total white is more than an idea, it is the philosophy of the bedroom. Such a vast, clean space in which borders, walls, corners are hidden – and the person remains – alone with himself. Or with someone who is especially dear to him.

Paradoxically, a more practical and “long-playing” solution is hard to imagine.
Yes, and you can get tired of white. But then the bedroom turns into a blank canvas, on which one-two colors you can set the rhythm, build a perspective, place the accents.

Important:
1. Do not use more than two colors (close shades do not count).
2. Do not get carried away – the predominance of white must be unconditional.
3. Avoid variegation: give preference to large forms.
4. Two or three colored objects – that’s enough.

Practical:
1. Faster and cheaper to change textile decor – curtains, bedspread, pillows, upholstery of a chair, carpet. Two or three subjects in the new color scheme will be enough to make the design and mood of the bedroom radically changed.
2. Exceptionally spectacular version – a bright designer chandelier, an armchair, a picture. They not only revive the white interior, but will determine its style and special refinement.

We recommend several non-beaten and spectacular color combinations.

White and red. Temperamental, erotic palette. Decisively puts emphasis on the most decorative element, whether it’s a metal openwork bed, an old grandmother’s chair or a pop art painting.

White and yellow. Spaciousness and freshness. Lemon shade fills the room with air and coolness. Egg-yellow color warms sun spots.

White, yellow and gray. The embodiment of elegance and sense of style.

White and gray-blue. The atmosphere of romance, dreams and amazing peace. In this color scheme you can create a truly royal bedroom.

White and black. A little black: wallpaper with a thin pattern, floor lamp, black and white photographs – and in the white bedroom there are outlines, a perspective appears. Such a defiantly elegant interior is easily animated by one bright thing, the color of which is in the mood.

White, lilac and beige. Cozy, feminine palette. Warm and noble. Here, as nowhere else, hand-made and floral motifs are appropriate.

White, chocolate and turquoise. A saving option, if you want to leave something in the white bedroom from the furniture of the dark wood – then in addition there is enough turquoise upholstery or an accessory of turquoise color.

Extravagant bed

Why not? The bed is the center of the bedroom, so let it be luxurious, let it embody the most daring design ideas!
Consider the three most fashionable designs:
1. metal;
2. a bed-podium;
3. Hanging.

Metal bed
In the trend – metal beds with high openwork or trellised backs. After many years of domination of minimalist bed-tables, they look extraordinarily attractive.

Perhaps the interest in metal beds is associated with the popularity of the styles of Provence and the loft, but this is an excellent idea for the Art Deco bedroom, the Boho, the Oriental Arabian and even the Scandinavian tradition.

I must say that, due to the lightness of the openwork design, such a bed seems to take no place in a small bedroom, leaving enough air and space.

An important detail: as a rule, it is so elegant product that it is no longer necessary to look for some other elements of author’s design in the room. Of the additional accessories with such a bed will be an ideal ensemble of forged lamps and vintage furniture samples.

Bed-podium

The apotheosis of minimalism is a podium bed. It would be more correct to define her like a mattress on the floor. This idea is not new – millions of new settlers just so began life in a new apartment.
The idea is that when you build a podium in the bedroom and put on it an excellent orthopedic mattress, you can not only emphasize the asceticism of the interior of scandium, but also optimally use the space of a small room. In a small apartment under the podium is often arranged storage system.

In large apartments the podium emphasizes asceticism, democratic interior, and also plays an additional role – zoning the sleeping place.

Suspended bed

A hanging bed in the bedroom is a completely crazy idea from the point of view of practicality and comfort, but it can be safely given the first place in the nomination “originality”.
What prevents a traveler, nostalgic for the tropical jungle, or a lover of adventure novels, to arrange in his bedroom such an unusual bed? A wooden bed, suspended on ropes, will perfectly blend into the safari style. And swaying on chains – in the eastern interior, filled with the spirit of fairy tales “Thousand and One Nights.”

It need not be a swinging design. For the Scandinavian style, a rigid fixing of the bed to the ceiling in the form of a metal or wooden frame is suggested. This “air” performance looks very avant-garde and facilitates the cleaning of the floor.

Vintage headboard

One of the most recent ideas is to focus on the head of the bed.
Until now, this was recalled in two cases: when they made out the bedroom in “royal” interiors or in modern, expressively decorating the wall behind the bed. Now, designers offer to imitate a high royal headboard near the bed practically regardless of the style of the bedroom.

The idea is bold enough, but effective. And comfortable. Especially for those who love sitting in bed watching evening movies.

1. The site of the wall is covered with material that mimics the skin, often – using rivet-studs. Cozy and comfortable. A universal solution for any of the popular interior design directions.

2. The same, but with upholstery textiles – velvet, velor, silk. It is better to use high-quality synthetic fabrics, easy to wash and durable.

3. A wooden covering in the form of a bed back is attached to the wall.

Simulating a high “old” headboard is a great idea, an incredibly spectacular decor of the artistic bedroom.

The focus is on the ceiling

In the bedroom, the ceiling can be given a special decorative role. We offer a choice of three ideas for a bold design of the ceiling:
1. Fretwork.
2. Painting.
3. Fabric drapery.

Stucco molding
A mixture of styles is welcome, and in such areas as art deco, loft, boho, modern, one can not do without it. Nevertheless, in the modern interior, when decorating the ceiling with a relief cornice, a bubble or a free molding composition, try to avoid excessive pomposity.

Technically, decorating the ceiling is not difficult – using polyurethane or gypsum blanks, which are glued to the ceiling, primed and painted.

By the way, in the white bedroom, rich stucco molding can become the main expressive element.

Painting

Frescos – exclusive and extremely expensive decor, creating an atmosphere of bohemianism. A democratic alternative to hand-painted on the ceiling of the bedroom was a large-format printing for stretch ceilings – nothing restricts the imagination of the decorator, it can embody the most daring ideas.

Fabric draperies

Unexpected idea – to cover the bedroom ceiling with textiles. Unexpected, but insanely attractive. Such draperies cover, as a rule, not only the ceiling, but also the walls, creating a tent or alcove effect.
It is easy to see the origins of such decor in a boho-explosive mixture of luxury, poverty and Roma romance. And in the Indian and Arab traditions, light silk canopies adorn not only the sleeping bed, but also transform the interior of the majestic stone palaces.

Despite the exotic ideas, drape the ceiling and walls of the bedroom is not so difficult – just remember the technology of stretch ceilings and take into account that pulling the fabric, as a rule, is not required. On the contrary, folds and draperies will only enrich its structure.

Light: intimate and impudent

Light is a great illusionist. In a small bedroom, he is able to move the walls, in the spacious – to create a cozy secluded corner, to give a sense of enchanting holiday or peace and tranquility. In order to achieve a sense of free space, light is directed to the walls and ceiling, and to create a cozy nest – the bed is highlighted.

What kind of fashion ideas for lighting a bedroom you need to know by all means?
The most pleasant soft general lighting is the illuminated ceiling. To do this, you can use a chandelier, or spotlights, directing the flow of light upward, as well as two-tier ceilings with illumination. Bedside light is also quite traditional, classics of the genre – symmetrically located lamps on the bedside tables or sconces.

And the lighting of the box is an unlimited area of ​​experiments. Here are a few ideas for a bedroom:
1. Instead of general lighting, you can concentrate a series of ceiling lights above the bed. Immediately it becomes clear that the owner is sorry to spend the night time for sleep.

2. Imitating the high headboard, it is enough to step back from the wall and mount hidden lights in it to create a soft romantic illumination, which will cope well with the role of a night lamp.

3. Enchanting effect creates a backlight from below, and if you arrange it under a hanging bed – it will be fantastic!

4. All sorts of magic effects – like the constantly improved starry sky and luminescent glowing patterns on any surfaces – are still in the trend.

Bedroom – the territory of experiments

Nothing inspires designers to unexpected ideas like interior design of a bedroom, especially if the customer and the budget does not limit the flight of fantasy. This is prompted by the ambiguity of the premises – it can become a refuge from problems and stresses, or a place of romantic dates. Will help to relax or reveal all aspects of sexuality.

In each person, the artist, the creator, the creator, the desire to create an unusual bedroom is able to awaken his imagination. The ideas that are proposed in this article are just a springboard to one’s own creativity, in which there are no prohibitions and restrictions.
