Create a 5 star bedroom with contemporary furniture
Have you ever wondered what makes staying in a luxury hotel feel so special? Of course there is the element of escapism with new and unfamiliar surroundings, but is also the experience of luxury bedroom furniture, quality linen and every detail taken care of that contributes enormously to the feeling of indulgence and relaxation. Naturally, having someone else to take care of the laundry and maintenance of the room does play it’s part in the luxury, but even when the romantic break is over why not take inspiration from the key elements to create a more luxurious, sensual and relaxing haven in your own home.
The most important part of a bedroom and often its main focal point is the bed itself. The prime area for sleep, intimacy and relaxation it is arguably one of the most important purchases you will need to make. For all-out 5 star luxury, it has to be a King size or better still a super-king frame. U.S king size beds tend to be 14cm larger than UK super Kings so it is important to purchase the right sized mattress and appropriate sized linen when you buy your new bed. If you have a large enough space, why not opt for large bed on a swivel frame for a stylish focal point and instant wow-factor.
The second most important feature of a relaxing bedroom is adequate storage. Having lots of clutter and busy detail not only serves as a distraction to your sleep, it goes against the ethos of simple clean lines that make a luxurious modern bedroom work so well. As we are all constantly being reminded of, we all have more shoes, clothes and general ‘things’ than ever before all contributing to the constant battle with clutter. The truth is, those with enviable modern bedrooms don’t have less things, but have adequate storage that keep them stylishly organised without detracting from the main focal point of the room. A great solution to this is to have custom walk-in wardrobes installed for your own specification and needs.
If you don’t have the luxury of extra space for large walk in wardrobes, consider investing in fitted wardrobes with mirrored sliding doors as a chic but equally useful storage alternative. This will make the maximum use of space while creating the illusion of a larger and lighter room. If your bedroom is on the smaller side it is also worth considering choosing a high gloss lacquered finish in a paler shade to further reflect the light. If you are still pushed for adequate storage it may be worth opting for a storage bed with an easy lift function enabling you to access your possessions with ease.
