Master Bedroom: 5 Principles of Arranging Your Furniture

Truth be told - it is hard, especially if you're not sure what you should be doing to achieve the desired result. However, with the right principles in mind, you'll be able to get a wonderful master bedroom layout and all that without stressing too much. If you wish to find out more, keep reading.

So, without any further ado, let's just jump right into it.

Use Wall Space for Storage

Having too much furniture in a single room can create the impression that it is cluttered, which is probably not the look you desire for your personal space. That's why the first thing you need to do when it comes to your master bedroom is to reduce the overall amount of furniture. You can do that by using your wall space for storage.

Find some lovely shelves or wall units, as they will allow you to effectively use the vertical space in your room, which will give you more space on the floor to arrange the rest of your furniture. Instead of a cluttered room, you will have some neat and tidy space.

Bed - the Focal Point of the Room

Some people seem capable of doing anything in their power just to not make the bed the focal point of the room. However, even if you successfully manage to create such a layout, the whole room can appear oddly disjointed. Instead, aim for an opposite effect; the bed is a dominant object in the room, and there's no point in pretending otherwise by adding other objects, drawing attention, and cluttering the room.

When making the bed a focal point of the room, your main goals should be to make it as esthetically pleasing as possible. You should start by choosing the right mattress, which is an individual matter, as for some people, a Lull mattress will be the best choice, while for others, it might be a DreamCloud mattress. Take your time to understand different types of mattresses so that you can make the best choice for yourself.

Keep a Gap between Pieces of Furniture

By maintaining a gap between different furniture pieces, you can create the illusion of a spacious room - even if your master bedroom is not the biggest. Additionally, it will prevent the room from looking cramped or cluttered.

Generally speaking, it's good to keep a five-inch gap between the furniture. However, we understand that it can be difficult, or even impossible, to do, especially in small rooms, which is why keeping the gap as big as possible should be enough.

Keep the Wardrobe and the Bed Apart

The bed and the wardrobe are the two biggest pieces of furniture in a bedroom, which is why it's important to keep them apart - if they are too close to each other, they can dominate the whole room, and make it seem unbalanced.

A good alternative is a walk-in closet, as it reduces the amount of space occupied on the floor. Also, it is an excellent choice if you are going for a minimalistic or Scandinavian design, which have been popular for a few years now.

Draw It before Moving

When arranging furniture in any room, you will have to move it several times in order to find a layout that will best suit your taste. However, this can become tiring sooner than you might think. Luckily, you can easily avoid it. Just draw the layout beforehand!

Drawing your ideas on a piece of paper allows you to see which piece of furniture would best suit which place. Also, if you plan to buy some new items, it will enable you to see if they will fit into your bedroom. The thing is that sometimes the room seems bigger than it actually is, so having a plan with all the measurements is an important step.

Final Thoughts

Arranging the furniture in your master bedroom is not difficult - as long as you know what you are doing. With the right principles in mind, creating a perfect layout that will be not only esthetically pleasing but also functional, shouldn't take much time. Good luck!
