Small Master Bedroom Décor Tips

Posted on: January 25th, 2019

A small bedroom doesn’t have to limit your decorating ideas. Instead, choose strategies that work with the space you do have rather than against it. These simple, yet effective, décor tips can help you create a master retreat that is stylish and comfortable.

Make Use of Your Space

When working with a small bedroom, it’s important to understand how to use the area available. It can be tempting to want to add more things into an already tight space, but the key is to keep things relatively simple. In this way, you don’t overcrowd the room or make it feel smaller. Some ways you can do this include the following:

• Install built-ins for additional storage and décor
• Place the right size rug under the bed
• Frame the bed in a headboard nook

 

Expand Your Horizons

A small room doesn’t have to feel tiny and closed in if you use the right interior design strategies. In fact, a sleek, four-poster bed frame without a footboard can add some extra height to your room and open it up. Mirrors also reflect natural light to open the room and give it a sense of being larger than it is. No matter what size room you are working with, adding height can make it feel more spacious than it actually is, thereby expanding your space.

Choose the Right Colors

There is no hard and fast rule about which colors can be used in a bedroom. That being said, using the right color palette can make a small space feel larger while creating a master bedroom you feel comfortable and at ease in. Some color schemes you can choose from for a small room include the following:

• Brown and white for a sophisticated, masculine space
• Navy, cream and gray for an elegant retreat
• Green and white for a peaceful feeling

 

Add Dimension

While a small room leaves less space to work with, that doesn’t mean it has to be dull and flat. Consider adding in some pieces that add a bit of texture and dimension. This could be a throw blanket at the foot of the bed, an intricate lamp, patterned accent pillows, patterned curtains or even some greenery. Each of these, when used in the correct proportion to everything else in the room, creates a cohesive space.

Small Bedrooms Can Be Beautiful

Just because a bedroom is small doesn’t mean it can’t be designed beautifully. Using décor tips and strategies that work in the small area mean the room can be stylish, functional and just as attractive as the rest of your home.
