Decorating ideas for a cosy bedroom that can slow down the time

It’s a busy world to live in, but this is one room where you set the pace, regardless of anyone else’s agenda. Do you want to wind down? Be our guest. Want to make time for togetherness with the kids and a good book? Feel free. Define what “quality time” means to you? Just do it. This is your room to create, so make room for yourself.

Sometimes a corner is all you need to create your own space

Well, a corner and GRÅFJÄLLET dressing table. It fits into any tiny space and works with every style since it’s classic and modern and neat all at once. It’s the place where you’re allowed a little time on your own, taking care of yourself. A bookshelf is another way to create serenity in the bedroom, even without opening an actual book.

A bedroom is a room for resting, not only sleeping

Never underestimate the power of a bookcase and a good armchair. Obviously the bookcase can be filled with stories of all kinds and lengths, and STRANDMON armchair will keep you comfortable no matter how long the story. Considering the ongoing competition from TV, mobile phones and computer games that want to catch your attention, you’ll be amazed by how a really good book can spellbind both the reader and the audience. This combination of a bookcase and an armchair is also the best way to give your bedroom an unmistakable sense of relaxation, long before you go to bed.

The perfect bed comes in many styles, sizes and qualities

The colour of the sheets, firmness of the mattress, height and density of the pillow, you name it! Making a perfect bed is a matter of many choices, but it’s not complicated at all. Just take your time to feel how you’d like it. Need extra storage as well? IDANÄS upholstered storage bed has big drawers underneath!

Taking the “closed” in closed storage to a whole new level

Sharing a room doesn’t mean sharing every single drawer. There might be some things you want to keep to yourself, for personal or safety reasons. SOLSTOL cabinet lock is easily mounted to any drawer or cabinet. As soon as it’s in place, that drawer or door can only be opened with the included key card or other cards of your choice.

A wardrobe that’s been improved for more than 30 years

PAX wardrobe as we know it was introduced in 1992, even if versions of both the name and the system has been around since 1955. Regardless of which year should be regarded the birthday of this versatile system, we can all agree that it has aged with dignity. PAX has been improved, altered and new features and accessories have been added almost every year. Today the possibilities to custom make different solutions are almost endless. To make a long story short: Years of improvement has made PAX pretty close to perfect – for you!

Adding a room at home has never been easier

GRÅFJÄLLET room divider provides the privacy that might be needed for someone sleepy to come to rest at night. When everybody is awake and running around again, it only takes seconds to fold and put it away. The fabric is easy to remove and replace with a different fabric, as we’ve done here!

Relaxation for both body and mind

Can you feel it? The calm colourscale gives the room an atmosphere that almost automatically makes you want to take a deep breath and wind down. There’s still room for creativity and personal details that make every corner someone’s favourite, but they all have the main theme in common: Relaxation.
