Bedroom Makeovers: Bed Time

Since most of the time spent in the bedroom is spent in or on the bed, it should be treated as the room's design starting point. Where you want your bed positioned, what you want to see when you wake up and the design of your bed all need taken into consideration.
Wake me up
Before you can even think of where you want to position your bed you must first think about. Will morning light waken you gently, or glare into your eyes? Will there be drafts? Will you be able to reach a light switch? Where will you put a book? Will an overhead fixture shine in your eyes? Your bed is your one true sanctuary and should be as relaxing as possible. Take your time until your bed is the way you want it to be.


The right position
Take all of your furniture out of your bedroom until you are left with just the bed. Now you can play about with the bed. Move it around the room until you are happy with it's position. Remember that you have to bring your furniture back in so you must allow space for them. If all of your furniture doesn't fit but you want to keep your bed in it's new position think about cutting back on some of your things.
