A contemporary bedroom that’s got it all

Lack of space or just loving lying horizontally sometimes means the bedroom is often the best place to really wind down and pamper yourself after a long day. But how do you make your bedroom a calm and relaxing place for sleep, while also having a cosy space to watch your favourite TV series and eat snacks? \

A lounging and sleep centre

Start by investing in a comfortable bed. Choose a mix of textiles to get the right comfort when you need it. Boost the lounging style with a throw or two and lots of cushions to amp up the snugness.

A sleek storage corner

To get the most lounging potential out of a small space, check your storage. Which is where this coordinated wardrobe and chest of drawers come in, creating a flexible space that can hold most things easily. Add KOMPLEMENT interior organisers in the wardrobe and SKUBB boxes in drawers to make a home for your belongings that’s so neat it might be hard to resist showing it off on social media.

Take a fresh look at your coat stand

Give a coat stand a new lease of life in the bedroom by using it to keep clothes you wear frequently – like a favourite sweatshirt or dressing gown – extra accessible.

TV that’s part of the bigger picture

Want a TV in your bedroom, but don’t want it to be the main attraction when it’s off? Make it part of the decoration. Surround it with a collage of posters and pictures in colours and shapes that work with the décor of the rest of the space. The result? A joyful wall that sets an easy-going atmosphere when the TV is off, and won’t detract from your watching when it’s on.

Roll in the snacks

Tucked away beside the window this trolley brings a lively flash of colour to the corner. And as keeper of containers full of treats and snacks, it’s ready to wheel them over when you feel a bit peckish.

Show it off or hide it away

Make room for your stuff with a wall of storage. With its colour block look that mirrors the shapes on the TV wall, these high cupboards help increase the illusion of space. Taking doors off some of the cupboards adds depth as well as creating little personality-packed cubby holes for mini-collections and books. And the best bit? Simply shut the doors on everything you want to make instantly invisible. Magic!

Create a space that’s sleep- and cinema-ready

Clean and curtain-free, a window dressed with a blind helps to keep the modern, blocky theme going throughout the whole space. And as a bonus it helps the room look larger too.

Your calm sanctuary – with snacks

Soft candy colours and closed storage help create a mood that mixes vibrant energy with calm and cosy. It’s all down to a balance of comfort and function, with the upholstered bed delivering on both fronts. Small details like the trolley and handy bedside shelves keep things nearby (hint: treats and TV remote), so everything is in place for hunkering down.
