Bedroom Ideas for the Modern Bedroom

We all know how important a good night’s sleep is and set up an environment that’s conducive to sleeping well and awakening refreshed can help attain that goal. When we’re looking for bedroom ideas, it’s important to consider what type of rooms we’re drawn to. For those who thrive in sleek, uncluttered interior spaces, the stylish look of a modern bedroom may work well. 

Window Treatments

In a modern bedroom, window treatments that work best are those that feel like part of the room’s background such as shades, blinds, drapery panels, or sheers that are all functional but look great.

Furniture

 Keep furniture simple and to a minimum so as not to crowd the space. Modern means plenty of room to move around. Choose a bed that features straight lines and simple features. Even a padded headboard can be gorgeous but not overdone.

 When it comes to bedroom ideas, nightstands should be considered an essential not an extra, though here again stick to a design that has uncluttered lines. You’ll also need a storage piece with drawers (that storage may find a home in the closet if bedroom space is limited.) Comfortable seating with a side table nearby for drinks, and such are also “must-haves.

Area Rugs

 If your room allows, the ideal spot for an area rug is at the foot of the bed with the footboard or legs of the bed frame resting atop the rug. An area rug is another way to infuse color into a modern bedroom. The rug can be a single color or a mix of beautiful bold hues. Geometric patterns and straight lines look great in a modern, uncluttered space

Lighting

A modern bedroom (any bedroom really) needs a chandelier with a simple design or a ceiling fan if the room needs more airflow. Bedside lamps are also a necessity if you read in bed and for finding things in the dark.

Artwork

 Large scale wall art can be an excellent choice for modern bedrooms. A single large piece or two can give you that clean, uncluttered look you’re aiming for. A collection of smaller framed art may seem too busy. Wall art can also be used to infuse color into the space.

Bedding

For that clean, simple appearance, bedding is best when it’s more tailored. It can be luxurious without the frills and fluff. Comfort is the goal, but with an awesome stylish look. If you want to add toss pillows or shams, choose plain rectangles or squares without excess trim. Add color with a throw in a lightweight knit or soft fabric. That should give you the s handsome look you wish for.

Extras

Decorative accessories can be kept to a minimum while adding finishing touches to your modern bedroom’s decor and at the same time satisfying your need for order. Extras can also include necessities like a tray with beautiful water carafe with simple lines, along with drinking glasses. Sure, such a tray may look good, but it also serves a very functional purpose.
