Bedroom furniture is designed for relaxation; it should be comfortable, functional and attractive. But how to choose it correctly so that it really fulfills its functions and creates a feeling of coziness and comfort?

What furniture is needed in the bedroom

Before deciding on a design, think about what kind of furniture you will need: for some, a bed will be enough, while for others, a computer desk will be needed for work. This will save you from unnecessary expenses and thoughts: why did we buy this?

By the way, there is no need to buy a designer set: inexpensive bedroom furniture in a modern style will reflect your individuality just as well, and its service life can be quite long.

Why should you buy a complete bedroom set?

Before we get into the step-by-step guide to purchasing these important bedroom furniture pieces, let's first cover the basics.

Why even consider a complete kit? There are two reasons for this. Firstly, bedroom sets must match each other. A traditional five-piece bedroom set typically includes a bed and headboard, a chest of drawers, two nightstands and a mirror.

All these elements are perfectly designed to provide a uniform and beautiful look that will ultimately make it easier for you to decorate your entire bedroom. Secondly, we all know how difficult it is to find different pieces of bedroom furniture that match the design.

A set of bedroom furniture minimizes the search for the right design. With just one purchase, you can easily get everything you need for your room.

Bed

The central place rightfully belongs to the bed; the whole design idea is built around it. In its location, you must follow some rules:

approaches to the sleeping area must be clear on both sides;
lack of radiators and window openings at the head;
do not place the bed opposite the entrance.

Choose sizes based on the number of vacationers and personal preferences, especially since the industry offers a large assortment: one and a half, single and double options.

There is no point in saving on space: we are talking about proper rest. An excellent solution would be to purchase white bedroom furniture in a modern style.

Contrast, emphasized by textiles and decorative items, is popular and in demand today. And the room itself, thanks to the color, will visually increase and create the illusion of “airiness”.

Room size

Pay attention to the available space. What is the best place for a wardrobe? A good sized cabinet should be at least two meters long. How much space is left for a bed? Plan the layout of your bed, storage cabinets, walk-in closet, and desk if you need one.

What size bed is needed, or will one crib be enough? If you have a large bedroom, you can even create a small sitting area. Bunk beds take up less space and are a good furniture option for children's bedrooms.

The right size furniture can make your room look beautiful without being too cluttered.

Closet

The second most important element of the decor will be the closet. Traditionally, it is located opposite the bed, however, individual preferences, layout and size of the room can make adjustments to the location.

Configuration and internal practicality are determined independently. We only note that the models come in straight, angular, built-in, with sliding doors and hinged doors - the main thing is that the closet can accommodate the entire wardrobe.

Materials

Bedroom sets are made from chipboard, wood, MDF, plastic, and forged products are also popular. The choice of material affects the design and ultimately determines the price of the furniture.

Laminated chipboard

A common and budget option is furniture made from chipboard - sawdust and composites, pressed into boards using a special technology and covered with lamination. The decorative layer is textured to look like stone, wood, metal, with different textures: smooth, shagreen, matte and even high-gloss - this allows you to make furniture in different styles; for classic bedrooms, sets of valuable wood species are in demand: oak, ash, wenge, exotic varieties and etc. In modern interiors, slabs with a glossy finish are more often used.

Despite the affordable price and the ability to cut out curved parts, the limiting factor in purchasing products is two nuances:

surfaces, including facades and headboards, will be absolutely flat; textured patterns cannot be applied to the material, except by gluing decorative plastic or metal elements;
the ends are treated with an edge that differs slightly, but slightly, from the color of the base material.

Furniture made from chipboard is a great opportunity to furnish a bedroom inexpensively

Tree

Bedrooms made of solid wood can easily be classified as expensive and luxury models. The highest price is observed for exclusive, custom-made handmade models, with carvings, inlays, and unusual finishing: high gloss, patination, brooching.

Modern woodworking allows us to produce no less beautiful and high-quality furniture, including carved furniture with 3D volumetric, complex patterns. Automation of production has made it possible to reduce the price of solid wood bedroom furniture, but it has not lost its aesthetics and quality. The only significant difference is that furniture is produced in batches, and not piece by piece, like handmade furniture.

Sets, with proper care, are durable, made from expensive species and are passed on from generation to generation; over time, the value only increases, which fully justifies the high price of the products.

Solid wood furniture is the highlight of the interior

MDF bedroom furniture

MDF is cardboard pressed into a board; the front layer is of particular interest:

PVC film with different textures and a huge palette of colors is an inexpensive option. Surfaces should be protected from heating by sunlight, otherwise the decorative coating will peel off. It is possible to mill MDF, apply a textured pattern, imitate a panel like on wooden products; a thin film delicately covers the design. New solutions are interesting: a figured profile and inserts for it. Manufacturers assemble from parts beautiful paneled facades, headboards, footboards, mirror frames, paintings, which at a quick glance cannot be distinguished from wooden products.

In terms of decorative properties, plastics are not inferior to the variety of films, but they are much more practical, although they are more expensive, thicker, and it is impossible to create a textured design.
Enamel is an aesthetic and durable coating, used in the manufacture of modern furniture, especially popular among Italian designers. Bedroom furniture is made from smooth matte and glossy parts; a more expensive option is elements with a three-dimensional pattern applied to the base with a special router. Bedroom furniture coated with enamel with special effects looks especially impressive: high gloss, thanks to which the lacquered surface appears very deep, metallics, flat effect with sparkles, mother-of-pearl.
Many people recognize only natural materials, solid wood is expensive, veneered MDF helps out - it is practical, easily tolerates changes in humidity in the room, and can be restored. With high-quality manufacturing, a non-specialist is unlikely to distinguish veneered furniture from solid wood. Complex carving is not possible, but panels, inlays with metal, stone, and artistic surfaces made of valuable rocks are available.

Forging

Forged bedroom furniture can be called timeless; in terms of price and aesthetics, it is comparable only to solid wood. Beds, tables, shelves and individual elements: bases, chair legs, decorative details on cabinet doors look elegant, light and airy. From the point of view of interior design, forged furniture is specific, it cannot be called universal, it is suitable only for creating certain styles: Provence, colonial, modern, and is often used in eclecticism.

Forged furniture looks openwork and airy

Let us note that combined furniture is the most practical, affordable and does not lose aesthetics. Invisible parts are made from cheaper laminated chipboard, and the front parts are made from wood, veneer, enamel, etc.

Additional furniture

For the convenience of the owners and to place accents in the bedroom, you can place ottomans, decorative pillows, and floor vases, if space allows. Many people like to watch TV before bed or have a weakness for a lot of small decor.

In this case, a modern-style bedroom wall will be the best option. It is functional, made of light and durable materials, does not weigh down the space, fits perfectly into any interior and solves many problems: storing things, books, dishes, equipment.

By the way, if you are planning to purchase furniture for the living room-bedroom in a modern interior, then the purchase of some items is worth reconsidering. For example, in this situation it is more practical to use a sofa, and you can completely abandon bedside tables.

Correct and convenient arrangement of furniture

You need to think through the details before purchasing. Determine a place for bulky items: cabinets, beds, so that you don’t have to rearrange them. They should not interfere with opening the entrance and balcony doors or windows. If the room is narrow, the bed should not have sharp corners.

Draw the room to scale, indicate architectural elements: windows, doors. And start “playing” with furniture. Consider ergonomic principles. Leave passages of at least 0.7 m, do not place the bed opposite the window if the window faces east.

Think about the design in advance

Let's consider the basic principles of arrangement:

The bed is placed with the head of the bed against the wall to create a feeling of peace and security.
Leave two aisles near the double beds. Do not install them sideways to the wall.
Do not place the bed near a window, avoid direct drafts.
Place a dressing table or mirror on the side of the bed.
In large rooms, diagonal arrangement gives exclusive comfort.
Place bedside tables near the beds.
One bed along a “blank” wall.
Place the cabinet close to the wall so that it does not block the passages.
Place your desk near a window for good lighting.

The corner cabinet option is convenient for small elongated rooms. It is roomy and takes up little space .

Open wardrobe

You want to make the task as easy as possible. Computer programs and phone applications make work easier. They are not complicated. Enter the dimensions of the room, indicate the location of window and door openings, and the sizes of objects. The program automatically provides several options for functional placement.

Modern style

To understand the subtleties of the interior, let’s look at the main features characteristic of the modern trend. Designer bedroom furniture in this case has soft, muted shades of beige, brown, or will be white, graphite or gray. The forms show straightness and clarity.

Materials in the interior “get along” perfectly: artificial with natural, textured with monochrome, textured with smooth. The main thing is that they are of high quality and last a long time.

The idea is to deny “canons and attachments”, and preference is given to human convenience and maximum functionality of objects. That is why zoning is a fundamental “building block” in the architecture of modern surroundings.

Thanks to more than half a century of history, this style has combined many trends. What furniture to choose so that the decor matches the overall concept?

Kinds

When determining what kind of furniture should be in the bedroom, it is taken into account how many people live in the room, what their age and material wealth are. For each person, such interior items are selected that he will certainly use in this room. There must be a bed and furniture designed for storing clothes. For a woman, a dressing table and bedside tables are considered mandatory. The choice of each element must be thoughtful and careful, so as not to disrupt the style of the room and ensure a competent choice of each element.

Bed

For a bedroom, the central and indispensable element is the bed. It is designed for comfortable and regular sleep. Taking into account how many people will sleep on it, it can be single, one-and-a-half or double.

Modern manufacturers offer huge and roomy beds, characterized by unsurpassed comfort, but they are intended for large rooms and have a high cost.

There are certain requirements for the bed:

it must be of optimal size so that it is comfortable to sleep on;
for it, you will certainly purchase a high-quality mattress of the required hardness in accordance with the requests of the direct users;
you need to choose the color of the headboard in advance so that it matches the color scheme of the entire room;
the base must be orthopedic to ensure not only comfort for sleeping, but also its safety.

If the room is too small, then you can choose transformable furniture for the bedroom. In this case, instead of a bed, a sofa bed is chosen or a folding structure is purchased.

Various materials are used to make a bed, and you should definitely pay attention to this factor, since people spend a lot of time on this furniture. Inexpensive are structures whose frame is made of chipboard or MDF. Expensive and high-quality beds are made from natural wood or metal.

Bedside tables

For comfortable use of the room for its intended purpose, special bedside tables must be installed next to the bed. They can have different sizes, shapes and colors. When choosing them, the main factors are taken into account:

material of manufacture;
colors that match the color scheme of the room;
spaciousness, since these bedside tables are often used to set an alarm clock, stack several books or store other items that should not fall from the furniture;
height corresponding to the height of the bed.

When choosing a bedside table, people most often pay attention to the color of the furniture and their design, since their functionality is considered low in any case.

Dresser

The bedroom is used for sleeping and changing clothes, so a chest of drawers or a closet designed to store numerous things and objects is certainly installed here. The chest of drawers is used to store a woman's cosmetics or other small accessories. It may have different parameters. To create it, wood, chipboard or other materials can be used. It is desirable that it be made in light shades. It is not allowed to take up too much space in the room, as otherwise it will not be possible to arrange other interior items.

Wardrobe

It can have different shapes and designs:

a corner one is suitable even for a small room, and it is often included in a set with other interior items in the room;
built-in, for which various niches are used, often found in numerous apartments and usually remaining unused for any purposes, and the walls can act as the sides of such a chest of drawers, so you will have to install doors and equip the structure with shelves;
narrow, suitable for any room, and before choosing it, it is recommended to decide where it will be located so that its dimensions are suitable for the prepared space.

Bedroom furniture should be beautiful, comfortable and made in the same style to make being in the room pleasant. A wardrobe is most often included with a bed and chest of drawers or some other furniture. This ensures the location of a full-fledged bedroom set in the room. The photo design of such a solution is located below, and such bedrooms really look attractive and interesting.

Table

If the bedroom is large enough, then both the most necessary interior items and some additional furniture can be located here, which has a positive effect on the comfort of using the room for its intended purpose. Choosing bedroom furniture often leads to purchasing the optimal table.

The table can be:

low magazine design;
a folding product, and it can be unfolded if necessary, and the rest of the time it is in an assembled state, so it does not take up much space;
a standard table on which flowers, a computer or other items necessary for storage in the bedroom are located.

The table can be included in a set with other furniture, so it will not stand out in any way in the interior. It can even act as its decoration if it is equipped with different carved legs or other additional decorative elements. It is important that it is of high quality so that various objects do not leave stains or scratches on its surface.

Cushioned furniture

What furniture to choose for the bedroom? Initially, the most necessary interior items available in this room are determined. After purchasing and installing them, it is determined whether there is still space for other products.

If the bedroom is large enough, then it is allowed to install additional upholstered furniture or a whole set of these structures.

A small sofa or chair is usually used as upholstered furniture in the bedroom. The rocking chair fits perfectly, providing high comfort in this room. When choosing such a design, the design style of the room is taken into account. Upholstered furniture includes an ottoman, installed next to the dressing table and used by a woman for various purposes.

Minimalism

This is the choice of those who intend to use the room for only one purpose: sleeping. The name exactly matches the characteristics:

lots of open space;
use no more than two primary colors;
minimum amount of furniture;
correct geometry of shapes;
a small number of decorative items;
predominance of natural textured materials.

Practicality and functionality on the verge of asceticism is the motto of minimalism. Cabinet furniture for the bedroom in a modern style will allow you to accurately comply with the principles of this trend. It is functional, practical, and has a huge number of design and color options. In addition, there is a great opportunity to purchase individual items at a low cost.

How to choose a furniture manufacturer

Buying furniture is quite an expensive pleasure, so each of us treats its choice with special care. First of all, decide on the budget that you are willing to allocate for the purchase.

Next, try to decide on the desired manufacturer. A good manufacturer has a number of useful services and popularity.

Provide a guarantee

You definitely need to pay attention to this criterion. And not only for the warranty period, which should not be less than 1 year, but also its conditions. The latter must clearly indicate which cases are considered covered by the warranty and which are included in the exclusions.

The terms of warranty service are specified in the contract. They can also be indicated on a separate coupon or check.

There are certificates

Quality certificates are a must. Don’t take the sellers’ word for it; be sure to check the safety of the material from which the product is made, the quality of the fittings and fasteners.

Brand popularity

The largest and most popular companies have more experience and the ability to attract highly qualified specialists to create their products.

Country of origin

The modern market for cabinet options is represented by factory models, both foreign and Russian. It must be said that options from foreign companies have a higher cost, while domestically produced products are often not inferior in quality.

High tech

It has absorbed all the main trends of modern style, diluting them with the presence of “high technology”.

The use of interactive home assistants in the form of climate control devices or robotic vacuum cleaners and smart watches is justified by the very idea of the emergence of a trend.

In order to emphasize your desire to be a “guest from the future,” designers boldly use glass, stone, metal and cool colors in the design.

A bed on chrome runners with lighting around the perimeter, bedroom wardrobes in a modern style with mirrored glass fronts, lamps with metal fittings, black and white photographs on the walls - the ideal embodiment of technological and laconic high-tech.

Sets for a girl's bedroom

For a child, the bedroom should be cozy and safe. Color helps to educate a child. Different shades affect emotions, help you concentrate or relax, and promote harmonious development. Headsets cannot be standard. They differ depending on age, temperament, hobbies.

For a child, the bedroom should be cozy and safe

The color scheme is usually chosen by adults. But already at a young age, children express their preferences. A little higher we talked about white bedrooms. This color is suitable for girls. It goes well with pink and light green, blue.

Newborns need a safe environment. The bed is comfortable, with a high-quality mattress. Choose neutral, calm colors. Avoid sharp parts. The fittings are tightly connected to the parts. Do not choose a playpen cover with poor quality paint. Babies love to chew on objects that are around them.

After 2 years of age, turn the room into a play area with colorful decor. Buy a crib with a small side, a low cabinet, a table for creativity, a box for toys.

Color helps raise a child

From the age of 5, girls love doll houses. Give the room a fabulous interior: a four-poster bed in the shape of a carriage. For a lover of adventure and active games, an interesting option is a 2-story bed with a ladder and a slide. The baby needs to be taught order. The room needs spacious shelves, cabinets or drawers for toys. Buy a transforming table, it “grows” with its owner. In such an interior the baby will be comfortable until she is 10-12 years old.

During adolescence, preferences change, personality develops, and color and design preferences appear. The interior should not distract from studying. Choose comfortable furniture: beds with an orthopedic mattress, a high-quality work chair or armchair. Otherwise, health problems will arise.

The interior should not distract from studying

Constructivism

In many ways it has something in common with the high-tech style, but has its own nuances. Rationalism in everything: inexpensive materials, primitive furniture almost hidden from view, open space illuminated by large windows, contrast emphasized by monochrome colors.

It would seem that the simplicity and restraint of the direction is accessible to any creatively thinking person. However, it is precisely this apparent simplicity that carries an important message: not a person for furniture, but furniture for a person, requires titanic labor and painstaking work.

Modular bedroom furniture in a modern style will fit perfectly into this interior. You can independently select and place blocks where you consider their presence necessary. In addition, purchasing ready-made elements from

Bed dress

First of all, the mattress. Nowadays, in the vast majority of cases, orthopedic mattresses are used. There are single, one and a half bedroom and double sizes. By type - spring and springless mattresses.

Innerspring mattresses use blocks of both connected and independent springs. In springless mattresses, the main part is the filler. It can be coconut guillemot, sisal, latex.

In terms of firmness, there are soft, medium-hard and hard mattresses. When choosing a mattress, you should make sure that all materials are natural and environmentally friendly.

The textile industry produces sheets, pillows, and blankets in huge quantities. When choosing, it is important to consider several factors: the material must be natural, dense, environmentally friendly, and neutral in color.

There can be several pillows: large, medium and small. Many housewives and needlewomen decorate them with embroidery and frame the edges with patterned ribbon. It is these seeming little things that create the coziness, peace and comfort that we strive for.

Vanguard

A great way to express yourself. When decorating a room in avant-garde style, you don’t have to hold back: bright colors, different geometric shapes, extraordinary decorations - each thing should be endowed with individuality.

With such an abundance of possibilities, it is important not to go too far, otherwise, instead of a well-thought-out concept, you will end up with a vulgar set of unrelated objects.

It is important not to clutter the room, because spatial freedom remains one of the main principles of direction. To do this, many use the illusion of being in different dimensions: a bed on a podium, a staircase to nowhere, a pedestal.

The best manufacturers of bedroom furniture create amazing models of unusual shapes and colors, the originality of which is emphasized by paintings with abstractions.

laminated chipboard

The cheapest option would be a set made of chipboard. The material is made from pressed waste lumber, mainly shavings. The top is laminated with a layer of paper impregnated with melamine. The color and texture of finished furniture can be very different - the laminated chipboard production technology allows this. Disadvantages of the material:

The structure of the board is relatively loose. After many years of operation, this becomes the reason for screws and screws to become loose in their sockets.
In the process of pressing chips, binding materials are used, which can subsequently release formaldehyde.
Despite the fact that it is possible to produce a wide range of models, furniture made from chipboard in stores is monotonous and therefore recognizable.

Pop Art

Glossy bedroom furniture in a modern pop art style will fit perfectly into the overall picture of the interior. This trend began with the turbulent 50s, when any item unnoticeable in everyday life could easily and naturally become the center of design thought. The distinctive features were:

bright colors;
neon lights;
contrasting colors;
simplicity and conciseness of furniture of unusual shapes (for example, a round bed);
posters with the most unexpected images: comic book characters, tin cans, animals;
color restraint of the ceiling and floor;
acid textiles.

A bedroom set in a modern style can be anything but boring: rounded shapes, bright upholstery and a lot of gloss.

Advantages of ready-made bedroom sets

Purchasing a ready-made bedroom set is much better for the buyer than ordering scattered furniture. There are a number of reasons for this.

General consistency with style. All elements of the set are made either in the same or in matching colors, and also match the specific interior of the home.
Modularity. Bedroom sets can be further expanded by installing the furniture you like.
Time consumption. Purchasing a ready-made set of furniture will save the buyer a large amount of time, which he would have spent on searching for individual interior elements that match each other.

Buying a set of bedroom furniture can save a lot of time

Variability. According to his preferences and budget, the buyer will be able to choose the most suitable set.
Choosing furniture for the bedroom is quite an important task. After all, the quality of sleep and the overall impression of being in the bedroom will depend on it. But, with the proper approach, the selection process will not be difficult and incomprehensible, and the buyer will be as satisfied as possible with its result for a long time.

Ecostyle

The increasingly popular destination is of interest to many people who are tired of the bustle and dust of the city. The main idea here is to maximize the connection between the interior and nature:

using only natural materials - wood, stone, glass, rattan;
maximum natural light;
textured furniture of simple shape;
soft shades of sand, beige, green;
a lot of living greenery;
use in the interior of aquariums;
natural decor: stylized driftwood, unusual stones.

Italian bedroom furniture in a modern style, made of natural wood, will fit perfectly into the interior. Manufacturers guarantee environmental safety and long service life of items.

This style is suitable for people who care about the environment and their own health.

There are many trends in modern style, and it doesn’t matter which one you prefer. The main thing is that your furniture pleases you for a long time, and you can relax with health benefits.

Assembly

All furniture is delivered unassembled. Accordingly, after bringing it into the bedroom, you should start assembling it. Step-by-step instructions are provided for each headset model. If her instructions are followed exactly, the furniture will not be difficult to assemble and will last as long as possible. And if you don’t have time for assembly or lack confidence in your abilities, you can order it from specialists. Masters of their craft will cope with the work as quickly and efficiently as possible.
