How to equip a rectangular bedroom?

In modern apartments, bedrooms with a rectangular layout are often found. How to equip such a room will be discussed in our article.

It is necessary to plan a rectangular bedroom so that an important requirement is observed in the process of furnishing it. Arrangement of furniture elements should not be carried out along long walls in order to avoid the effect of stretching the room. Then the room will be perceived as very narrow, and it will be uncomfortable to be in bedrooms of this shape.

Many modern designers tend to argue that the correct layout of rectangular bedrooms should look like U-shaped or L-shaped shapes. Such a project is able to use the space of the room in the most rational way. In addition, there will be an area in the room for the free movement of people or the installation of additional decorative elements.

If the owner decides to equip a rectangular room, then first you need to decide on the materials that will be used in the decoration.

In this case, the walls with a window should be covered with wallpaper in a dark tone. The rest are decorated in light colors.

Many designers tend to use a glossy material when decorating a rectangular room. Walls or furniture can be decorated by placing mirrors on them. Especially popular is finishing for painting or further plastering.

You can improve the decor of the window opening with the help of wide curtains made of dense material. However, do not forget that windows are usually installed on the narrow side of the bedroom.

To solve the problem of decorating narrow bedrooms, vertical stripes come to the aid of the owners. And you can also paint long surfaces of space in pastel colors. Today, peach, pink, light green and beige colors are very fashionable. Wood trim can be found in expensive interior design. Many wealthy people often choose redwoods or expensive dark woods.

In rectangular bedrooms, flooring is usually made in the form of parquet or laminate. In rare cases, linoleum can be used. Floor material can be used when zoning space. In order to create zones in a room, it is necessary to put parquet in one direction in the first of its parts, and to apply a different layout in the second part of the bedroom.

A sophisticated and innovative solution will be the diagonal type of parquet laying.... This provides the visual effect of expanding the room. The use of various materials is allowed in some areas of the rectangular bedroom. To decorate the central part of the room, you will need to purchase a square carpet or lay out a square pattern from parquet.

In the old fashioned way, ceilings are allowed to be painted white. But, according to experts, the room will find comfort and warmth if the ceiling is painted in beige, blue or gray. Stretch and false ceilings will look great. Thanks to the glossy coating, the floor ornament can be reflected on the stretch ceiling. At the same time, the room visually expands and gains volume.

Color films are often used to ensure color matching. To create the original design of a rectangular room, you will need the correct selection of lamps that should harmoniously fit into the stretch ceiling.

The use of asymmetry in the arrangement of furniture, the design of the wall covering, the ceiling will help to bring originality and sophistication to the interior of the bedroom. In this case, an important aspect will be the place where the bed is planned to be installed. It is recommended to install it both along and across the room. Everything will depend on the width of the room.

It is possible to install the bed on a specific podium. At the same time, there should be enough space on both sides of the bed. The bedside table at the head of the bedroom set will look very elegant. If the area of ​​the room is small, then it is recommended to place the bed along the wall partition.

A window seat located along a narrow wall can be arranged as a work area. The area of ​​the room is completed with a table with a laptop, bookshelves or special furniture for books (bookcase). In the central part, place a TV and arrange elements of upholstered furniture.

Often, in a room with a similar layout, the location of the windows is provided on the long side of the room. Based on this, rectangular bedrooms require a different approach to design development. Let's start with the dressing room. In this case, sliding wardrobes are recommended to be installed in the area of ​​a narrow partition. With such an arrangement, it is necessary to ensure that the colors of the furniture match the tone in which the walls are finished. If all the above requirements are met, the elongation of the premises disappears, and the bedroom takes on a natural square format.

It is strongly not recommended to decorate a rectangular bedroom in the Baroque, Empire or other similar direction of palace origin. Simple rectangular bedrooms simply don't have room for that sophistication.

Possibility of finishing the space in country style. In its specificity, it resembles the interior of European country houses, the structure of which includes natural ingredients and a light beige tone when decorating. One of the obligatory features that emphasize this style is the use of cotton types of textiles: plain or printed bedspreads, plaids, curtains, tablecloths and others.

In the country style, massive furniture sets with forging elements must be present. To decorate the room, it is possible to use paintings with neutral subjects, handmade in accessories, ceramic dishes.

Minimalism as an interior style, it is famous for its simplicity of execution, laconic forms and free space. In terms of color, such a room is finished in white and light shades. It is customary to use plaster, natural wood, imitation of stone as a finishing material. Regarding furniture, it should be noted that it should look very simple and as functional as possible. It should not contain any unnecessary elements. It is ideal if the furniture occupies no more than 35% of the room in terms of area.

Scandinavian style tends to include simple, comfortable placement and play of light. One of the main colors of this style will be milky, white, and other natural shades. The interior should have bright pillows, a blanket on the bed, original flowers in pots, and exclusive figurines. Vintage decor elements are in a qualitative way combined with new ones - this is permissible provided the room is decorated in this way.

Like minimalism, the Scandinavian interior looks exquisite in large areas. But in a small rectangular bedroom, he will also look great.

Due to the harmonious combination of white and green tones in the decoration, the room does not seem too narrow, but looks light and airy.

In this case, there is a clear visual separation of borders by color. The contrast of white and red colors, as it were, divides the room into two rooms, separating the sleeping area. The bedroom looks stylish and modern.

Shiny walls and ceilings visually expand the space, adding lightness and airiness to the bedroom.

If the apartment is one-room, then the berth can be separated by a rack, as in these examples. Thus, the owners have not only a separate place to sleep and rest, but also a small living room.
