Modern Small Bedroom Ideas

  1. Wall-mounted bedside tables: Say farewell to bulky furniture crowding your compact bedroom. The slender EKET shelving system mounts neatly on the wall beside your bed for a hovering bedside table that's practical and pretty. Pop your lamp and book on its slim shelves so everything you need is within arm's reach.   
  2. Fold-down desk: Our savvy NORBERG wall-mounted fold-down desk is the ultimate space-saving solution for cramped bedrooms. Craving a cool and contemporary look? This minimalist desk folds neatly against the wall when not in use, so you can still have room to move. With a quick flip down, it transforms into a sleek workstation that blends beautifully into your pared-back modern bedroom. Finish your work, fold it up and reclaim your room! 
  3. Vertical storage: Grow your storage vertically and maintain those clean lines your modern aesthetic longs for. Our modular EKET system and LACK mount gorgeously on walls as shelving or narrow cabinets. Arrange clothes neatly in a floor-to-ceiling PAX wardrobe or display treasures on the SKADIS pegboard above the bed headboard. Vertical is the new horizontal in modern small bedrooms!
  4. Mirror magic: Our PLATSA wardrobes with sleek mirrored doors make your room feel more spacious and airy while complementing your modern minimalist look. Hang an oversized mirror opposite your window for double the daylight. Or opt for multifunctional mirrored cabinets to add storage with a side of glamour. 
  5. Clever curtain separation: Get set for bedroom bliss with our VIDGA curtain track – no drilling or heavy hardware required. Effortlessly create separate sleep and living zones within petite spaces. These lightweight tracks and curtains assemble in a snap to carve out privacy nooks or divide two areas while maintaining an airy, open feel. 
  6. Customised PAX wardrobes to make space more effective: You can either use our PAX online planner to browse yourself or book an appointment and have some help making the most of your wardrobe space.
