Create a calm and pleasing bedroom

  • Styling Your Bedroom — This is one of the most essential parts of your home, as you spend a third of your life in it. Even if you pay much less than that, make every hour and minute count by creating a calming sanctuary that'll leave you feeling refreshed each morning.


First of all, yes the number one tip! Do not buy your bed and bedside tables as a matching set.

A balanced and visually pleasing room needs a variation of light to dark, wood to fabric, layers, straight to curves and shiny to texture. In other words, avoid 'matchy-matchy'.

Second, when it comes to correct bedside height. Your bedside table top should be level with the top of your mattress (or as close to as possible).

When buying your bedsides separately from your bed, (always buy your bed first), measure from the floor to the top of your mattress to consider the correct bedside table height.

Next. Consider the scale of your bedside tables in relation to your bed. You don't want a huge king-size bed with really tiny bedside tables.

You also need to choose which will be the hero in the room. Does your bedhead have a huge amount of detail, dramatic in colour or perhaps it's highly textured? Then make your bedside tables plain... of course, this then goes vice versa if you prefer your bedside tables to be the feature.


Finally. Your bedside tables should appear to float off of the floor (not meld into it) so make sure they aren't the same depth, colour or even material as your flooring.

Imagine stepping into calm and abundance...in every space in your home.

 

Does your home feel like it needs a fresh new vibe?

Maybe you've collected lots of inspiration for home decor, picked up some amazing pieces from your travels, and even have amazing furniture you love...yet somehow they feel cluttered rather than cultured.
 

That's because just like anything else, you need a plan. 
 

The best plan combines styling, colour, and function to create spaces in your home that brings an inviting ambience of balance and harmony.

Whether you're planning a reno, renting a property, or preparing one for sale, it's time to create a feeling of calm, zen, and abundance in your home.
