With 2017 well underway maybe it’s time for some changes in the bedroom?
If you’re wondering what to do with the space then don’t worry, we’ve got you covered.
We’ve been thinking about what works in the bedroom and what doesn’t, as well as what’s expected to be popular this year, and compiled a list of must have attributes for the best bedrooms of 2017. So read on and learn how to revamp your bedroom ready for the year to come.
De-clutter your life beginning with your bedroom, by opting for a more minimalist, Scandinavian style.
In recent years we’ve seen a trend towards creating open, fluid spaces in the home that connect to the outdoors, so when it comes to bedroom windows – the bigger the better. Extensive use of glass in the bedroom’s design will ensure a lovely, light-filled room that feels spacious and open.
Bringing a piece of art into the bedroom will help you to create a highly personal space that you feel connected to. However, avoid quote artworks as they’re becoming tiresome, and the trend is expected to die off this year.
A comfortable bed is an essential attribute in the bedroom, and the headboard can be a great, creative means of decoration. If it suits your room’s style try an upholstered headboard as they’re expected to be the more fashionable option in 2017.
The bedroom is becoming a more multi-functional space, so think about the different ways you might want to use your bedroom this year. Perhaps include a comfortable lounge area like in the example above, or incorporate a small study into the design.
Bring a little nature into your bedroom by integrating some rustic, reclaimed wood into the space. Not only will the wood create a connection with the outdoors, but it’s environmentally friendly and fashionable!
A neutral colour palette is expected to be a popular choice for bedroom décor this year, and looking at the cool, high-contrast design above – by interior designer Laura Yerpes – it’s easy to see why.
Striking, one-of-a-kind wallpaper can help you to create a really unique bedroom.
So far the points we’ve covered in our list all concern current trends and what’s expected to be popular this year, but the most important element in any creative process is the creativity itself! Design your bedroom in a way that speaks to you, and shape a space you're most comfortable in.
Finally, breathe life into your bedroom with the introduction of some fresh flowers or potted plants. If you’re wondering which plants to purchase, then check out which plants will be trendy this year.
