Minimalist Design Makes Bedrooms Fabulous
You look around your bedroom and chances are you see a lot of clutter. Or, if you don’t, you probably just signed a lease or a mortgage and haven’t yet moved any furniture into your new space. What many new occupants will do with regards to their space is bring the furniture they had in their previous home into the new space. This, from a design perspective, is a terrible mistake. A well-designed home is built to take advantage of the area’s characteristics and that uniformity of purpose should also carry into the interior space.

Too often, occupants will ignore the lines, materials and setting of their dwelling and just focus on what comes up in real estate listings, such as square footage or the number of closets. When you have the ability to consider a wider array of options, or to consult with an interior design expert, you will be able to envision an entirely new set of possibilities for your space. The bedrooms of a home are certainly no exception.

A professional interior designer will look at your bedroom and try to incorporate as much function as possible into the form. The purpose of each element lends meaning to its shape and appearance. If you like the way a lamp or dresser looks in the catalog and that prompts you to purchase it, you may find out that it has an entirely different effect once it is placed in your room.

Bedrooms, in particular, require a depth of care and consideration as they are a location in your home where you spend a large amount of time. Aside from sleeping, it is not uncommon to spend time in your bedroom studying, meditating or just relaxing in the middle of a day. An uncluttered space with a high-efficiency concept will lend itself naturally to peacefulness and stillness of mind for you as the occupant.

When you decide that a modern, peaceful and sophisticated design is what you want for the bedrooms in your home, you’ll want to center the room’s appearance around contrasting light and dark colors, with an emphasis on white. Another staple in the minimalist design scheme is the use of organic materials. You might choose to accentuate your white-boxed floors, walls, and ceilings with a sandalwood furniture set and a wicker rug. Then, for a pop of color and keeping with the organic theme, find a slender elephant plant reaching out of a matching wicker planter.

Some would argue that predominantly-white minimalist design can come off a bit boring when you consider the vast array of colors, materials, and styles available for the new occupant of a space. Boring, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. If you are a very colorful person and couldn’t ever feel happy in a minimalist room, then you have your decision made for you.
