Queenswood Road - Master Bedroom

Drawn Interior Design

Space was at a premium in this 1930s bedroom refurbishment, so textured panelling was used to create a headboard no deeper than the skirting, while bespoke birch ply storage makes use of every last millimeter of space. The circular cut-out handles take up no depth while relating to the geometry of the lamps and mirror. Muted blues, & and plaster pink create a calming backdrop for the rich mustard carpet, brick zellige tiles and petrol velvet curtains.

Compact CHIC

STUDIO CREATIONS - Roberta Tricarico A&D

La camera da letto è un piccolo rifugio di stile e funzionalità, dove ogni dettaglio è stato studiato per unire eleganza e praticità. Il letto contenitore su piedini offre comfort e massimizza lo spazio di contenimento, mentre la parete della testata con color block blu crea un punto focale deciso, intenso e accogliente. Sospesa sopra la testata, una finta trave nasconde gli impianti e ospita lampadari pendenti, che diffondono una luce morbida verso il muro, creando un’atmosfera intima e scenografica. I comodini cilindrici iconici della Kartell aggiungono un tocco di colore e personalità, contrastando con la sobrietà degli armadi e del cassettone, progettati per ottimizzare ogni centimetro di contenimento senza appesantire visivamente lo spazio. All’ingresso della stanza, la libreria a vista accompagna lo sguardo, nasconde elegantemente la spalletta dell’armadio e introduce un ritmo visivo leggero e contemporaneo. La TV sospesa completa l’ambiente con discrezione. Il risultato è una camera accogliente e raffinata, dove i colori, le luci e le superfici dialogano tra loro, trasformando lo spazio in un rifugio intimo e funzionale.

Studio Uno

Mihaly Slocombe

Studio Uno is an unexpected sanctuary for our client Naomi, a full-time carer and mother. Lying behind an established Brunswick terrace, it takes the shape of a meticulously designed Dependent Persons Unit. Naomi lives with her adult daughter, who has very high support needs. The nature of their circumstances means that living together under one roof isn’t always feasible. Naomi needed a certified DPU that met a simple brief: a dismantlable but quality retreat with warm, robust materials and a calming ambience. We’ve packed as much enduring quality and thoughtful design as possible into a compact footprint. Carefully engineered, the dwelling’s lightweight structure and internal linings enable it to be readily disassembled, transported and rebuilt elsewhere. It replaces the fence at the site’s rear, with its upper mass leaning into one corner to minimise impact on the neighbours’ skyscape. Inside, blackbutt timber and hoop pine plywood dominate the palette to create a warm, low-contrast and relaxing environment. The ground floor features dual sliding doors connecting to the courtyard and laneway, with a versatile living area between for retreat, Naomi’s art practice and above all, peacefulness. Lining the wall is a simple kitchenette, cabinetry, and a clever door concealing the bathroom. A staircase leads to the loft bedroom above, made deliberately cosy and secluded by the dwelling’s tapered form. It’s punctured only by a small window to the lane and a skylight above, offering light and ventilation without compromising privacy.

Small Bedroom Ideas and Designs

Need design ideas for a bedroom? With these small bedroom ideas at Houzz, you’ll have all the inspiration you need to style your space. Yes you have a small bedroom, you may not be able to fit all your ideas into a room this size but it doesn’t mean you have to scrimp when it comes to style.

What can you do with a small bedroom?

Even with a small room, there is still so much you can do to make the most out of your space, without making it feel cramped. With a small bedroom, you really have to choose your pieces carefully. Sometimes this means only adding the essentials, or finding clever ways of combining multi-use furniture that takes up as little space as possible. A small bedroom can still look good and be well designed and doesn’t have to be boring and dull. Browsing through the many ideas on our site can help you decide what it is you want to create with your room.

What colour is best for a small bedroom? What colour walls make a room look bigger?

So you want to know what colour to paint your small bedroom, or if you’re not using paint, what colour would work on your walls? This depends very much on your tastes and preferences but there are some colours that will instantly make your small bedroom look much bigger. White is one of those colours. It is light and airy and works as a blank canvas when designing your room. You can always count on clean white walls to really brighten and open up a cramped bedroom (particularly one that gets good natural light). If you find white too stark, a warmer colour such as cream or beige also works in a similar way. It is light enough to really open up your space without drawing the walls in (not what you want in a tiny space). Darker colours do not work well in small bedrooms as they will make the room look even smaller. If there is another colour that you particularly like, then a light or pastel shade will help to make the room look and feel more spacious.

Maximise your space to make your small bedroom look big

With a small bedroom, making the most of natural light is a must. Use simple window treatments to allow as much natural light in as possible. The goal is to keep it airy. Simple blinds work well rather than long curtains. When it comes to furniture and furnishings, look for items that can double up as something else. For example, shelving that can also be artwork, a desk that can also be a dressing table, a bookcase that doubles as a room divider - the possibilities are up to your imagination. The size and type of bed you choose should also fit in with the room size. Day beds (which can double as a sofa) and Murphy beds (wall beds) are also great choices for small bedrooms as they take up less floor space, making your room appear larger. There are so many things you can do with a tiny bedroom to make it cosy and still functional. Use these small bedroom ideas to inspire you.
