Getting Started If your plans arc still in the formative stages and you're unsure of where to start, it's a good idea to scout around for ideas by consulting some design design or remodelling publications. publications. Depending on your space and budget limitations, you'll be able to sort out your preferences and you should be able to get some indication of the costs associated with such a project. Other than a sleeping space, ask yourself what purposes you'd like the room to serve. Do you want it to do double duty as a combined bedroom and sitting room? Do you want to have a portion of the room designated as working space for those work-at-home nights? Perhaps you want to have special space for a television, stereo or simply curling - up with a good book. You might also like your own private adjoining adjoining bathroom or perhaps an adjoining dressing area that leads to the bath area. You should also determine whether privacy and quiet are ultimate priorities. If so, you'll want to incorporate some sound muffling devices - especially especially if your bedroom is located located close to the major activity hub of your home - the kitchen or family room. Thick carpeting is an effective effective tool in muffling sound. And windows on busy streets or close to adjoining properties can be covered with fabrics that will help deaden sound and act as effective insulation barriers as well. Furniture If new furniture is also included included in your plans, it's a good idea to visit several showrooms long before you get too far in the planning process. process. This will give you a realistic realistic idea of the size and feel of the types of pieces you'd like to incorporate. A four- poster or sleigh bed, for instance, instance, might look a little larger larger in real life than what you had initially envisioned. It pays to be realislir Pick pieces that arc comfortable, comfortable, reflect your tastes and lifestyle - and stay within your budget limitations. Using Existing Space If you want to work within the existing space of your present bedroom, you'll obviously. obviously. be more limited in the scope of your project. However, However, keep in mind that windows and doors can be replaced or installed in new locations. Walls can also be removed, or new ones can be installed. You can also incorporate a number of techniques to make the room look larger than it is - by going with a monochromatic monochromatic color scheme, or installing a few large mirrors. The installation installation of new, larger windows can also open up a room a great deal. Focal Point Since a bedroom's primary function is for sleeping, experts experts suggest that the bed act as the focal point of your bedroom. bedroom. They also stress the importance importance of a good-quality mattress. mattress. Ideally, there should be enough room in your bedroom for a couple of bedside tables. But if space is at a premium, there are several innovative ideas - like headboards with built-in, fold-away storage compartments - that you can incorporate to make the most effective use of existing space. For ideas, talk to a decorating consultant or check out some remodelling publications. Design experts also suggest that you allow between two and three feet of clear space on either side of the bed so it's easier to access and make up. Adequate access room should also be left for items like wardrobes, wardrobes, dressers and dressing tables. tables. Lighting is also an important important consideration which is sometimes overlooked in the redecorating process. Most likely you'll want to have ade quate lighting for reading in bed. You may also require task lighting if you plan to incorporate incorporate a work area into your bedroom. bedroom. With a little foresight and ingenuity, you can transform your bedroom into a cosy, secluded secluded refuge from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
