Modern bedroom furniture is an increasingly popular choice. Here are some tips to use when decorating around them.
• Less is more. Modern furniture looks best with the fewest pieces possible. A platform bed with a built-in nightstand on each side are really all a room needs for a serene place to sleep. At most, add one lamp and a single piece of artwork. Much more than that and the room will start looking cluttered.
• Keep the colors monochromatic. Paint the walls a simple white or grey and match that shade in your window blinds. The black contrasts in the bed will set the walls off dramatically. Keep the bed linens neutral, with the exception of one pillow in a bold color.
• Keep the room free of clutter. Make up the bed each morning. Put laundry and books away as soon as possible. Take dirty dishes and glassware to the kitchen right away. Make a habit of taking these steps to keep the room as peaceful as possible.
• Use organic linens, flooring and window treatments. Today’s “green” movement is ideally suited toward modern furniture. Simple styling reflects the “back to basics” philosophy.
• Add a simple piece of greenery. A single green houseplant adds just the living touch needed in such a serene space.
• Take time to enjoy the space. In today’s breakneck world, everyone needs a sanctuary. Modern bedroom furniture is a great way to create such a place. However, it is important to take the time to appreciate the simplicity of the elegant surroundings. Take a moment each night to take a deep breath and admire the well-designed space and relax at day’s end.
