CREATING THE STYLISH, COMFORTABLE ROOM OF YOUR DREAMS
Creating the Stylish, Comfortable Room of Your Dreams – the most personal Room of the House
Bedrooms are a true reflection of personal style. They are not just a place to sleep, they are somewhere to retreat and relax. For many of us, the Bedroom is probably also an area for the storage of clothes, shoes and bags and often it’s the only place to which we can escape busy family life to read, relax, exercise or study.
There has been a dramatic resurgence in the appeal of Leather Beds. Contemporary yet timeless, the use of leather in bed designs is more popular than ever and is undergoing a significant revival. With the range of Leather Beds shown here, you can create a room with function and flair. The Otto Leather Bed gives a bedroom a deep sense of calm. This beautiful bed is so versatile it looks good with anything, dressed to the full with beautiful linen or laid bare in its full glory to let the accompanying bedroom furniture do the talking. For a real statement mix it with the striking look of satin to convey a real feeling of luxury. Satin bedding is a superior fabric that will wash beautifully and look stunning all year round. Its texture is a compliment in any room. Satin perfectly encapsulates the look for this season – striking yet practical. The bold headboard of the Quadratus adds real character and a strong contrast can be created using Leather-effect wall panels on the wall behind the bed. The caramel leather headboard and satin pillows in dark chocolate colours, set against the natural tones of the stone floor, create the perfect ambience.
Key to any Bedroom is a cosy armchair, chaise longue, or sofa. It makes a Bedroom a haven in which to relax at any time of the day. Many of us like to study in our bedroom and it’s not always ideal to sit propped up in bed. Leather or Suede Cubes are a must for propping up your feet or to act as a small coffee table, or even bedside table. They are extremely versatile in a Bedroom.
Use Mirrors to create an illusion of space. Floor Mirrors when placed opposite a window almost doubles the amount of light in the room.
Texture adds visual interest to the room and can be created by draping a casual throw over the end of the bed. Whatever the style of your bedroom, the bed will always be the central feature and is likely to be the most expensive item of furniture. An important aspect to remember is to turn your mattress regularly to make sure it wears evenly.
Flattering Lighting is essential. Harsh overhead lighting should be avoided. It needs to create a warm soft glow. Several overhead-ceiling spots ideally on a dimmer switch and several Table Lamps can achieve this. The Glass Lamp base shown here is elegant and certainly makes a real statement.
Avoid clutter. Minimalism is difficult to achieve. But discarded clothes and a clutter of shoes really spoil the look of a contemporary bedroom. The less clutter you have in a room and the fewer colours a room contains, then the more noticeable the different textures and shapes become.
Timeless elegance summaries all the bedroom furniture shown. Capable of complementing any style.
