Whose bedroom is it?

Firstly consider the personality of the room's primary occupant. Different people have different bedroom furniture needs. And those needs may even change over time.Bedroom can be categories in to four different types according to the different age group & space necessity like master bedroom,kids bedroom,guest bedroom and Grandparent bedroom. Reflect the room's occupant in the theme, color, scheme, and furniture choices.

Room Layout

Before you buy, it's important to measure your bedroom to find out what furniture pieces it can comfortably fit. The ratio of room-to-furniture is crucial for a well-decorated room. The size of the furniture needs to be in balance with the size of the space. The size of your bedroom will dictate the amount of furniture you can purchase and thus will inform which type of bedroom set is the best choice for you. Thoroughly measure your room including door widths and window size. Window size is an important measurement because it will inform the placement of your bedroom furniture.

A smaller bedroom will feel cramped with too many large pieces, so a basic set may be ideal. Best fit for small-sized bedrooms will be queen or double size beds with built-in additional storage (drawers, shelves, boxes). If you have a larger room, an expanded set with many pieces might be the right choice for you.

Customizable bedroom suites are truly convenient — you can choose what furniture pieces you really need in your bedroom. It allows you freedom of choice, especially if your room is of non-standard size.

 Keep your bedroom's measurements handy as you shop. Each bedroom set option should have individual measurements listed for each furniture piece. Also, when you are in the showroom, you might look at a piece of furniture and envision it in your room. It can help to draw up a floor plan of your bedroom to see if and how certain furniture pieces can fit in your space.

 Decorating Style

Bedroom sets come in most styles, from contemporary, modern, traditional and casual/transitional to mid-century modern.You can choose to make the decor in your bedroom similar in style in order to create a cohesive and unified look throughout your house. Or you can have different styles in different rooms, or even mix pieces of different styles in the bedroom. There's no wrong answer here, it depends on your personal preferences.

Bedroom furniture, you'll want to incorporate your design with some calming elements that may include color, patterns, or lighting to help create a restful and serene atmosphere.

 Material

Bedroom furniture can be made from a variety of materials.This is important because the type of material is a factor in determining the quality of the furniture piece and the price you may pay. Bedroom furniture can be made from a myriad of materials, including solid wood with wood veneers, particle board, medium density fiberboard (MDF), and metal, marble, leather, faux marble and by-cast leather.

Wood is eco-friendly, looks nice,strong and durable, but expensive material. Solid wood can be carved to add exquisite details and design elements directly onto the furniture.  Plus, wood can be finished in a variety of colors that can naturally enhance the beautiful grain and textures of the furniture. Wooden furniture sets have a massive look and will be appropriate in spacious bedrooms. Products made from Teak,Rosewood, Oak and Mahagony will be expensive, but will last for a long time.

Rubberwood ,It is durable, strong, and is considered one of the most environmentally friendly hardwoods used in today's furniture industry.

Particalboard and MDF - imitation of wood, but are much cheaper. In appearance and furniture lifespan is much lower than natural wood. At the same time, a set of bedroom furniture made of particleboard has a lower price and is more toxic than the MDF analogue.

The bedroom sets from the chipboard and MDF have a special coating, which increases the resistance to moisture and mechanical damage. There are veneered and more expensive options. Different materials require different care. Wood bedroom furniture is usually easier to clean and polish than some other common furniture materials like particleboard, fiberboard, powder-coated steel or brass.

For a child's room that may need redecorating once a baby or toddler reaches school-age, particleboard or compressed wood is perfectly reasonable for nursery furniture.

Also, consider how often you will be moving the bed. If you plan on moving your furniture a few times, get something that can be easily disassembled and moved. A lot of MDF and particleboard beds are not designed to be disassembled and moved.

 Colour

When choosing the color of bedroom furniture, the color scheme of the decoration of the room, lighting and the size of the room will be taken into account. For a small bedroom it is desirable to choose furniture of light tones visually expanding the space of the room. For a more spacious bedroom, you can pick up kits and dark colors, which, on the contrary, visually narrow the room.The furniture for the bedroom of light colors gives the interior freshness and lightness, but any defect, scratch and dent will be evident. Such a set needs regular care.

Bedroom furniture of darker tones will hide defects and stains, but the dust on it is visible.In addition, the kit in dark colors gives the bedroom an original look. When choosing a dark-colored set, pay attention to the illumination of the bedroom: if the light is not enough, this will give the room a dull and even gloomy look.Dark tones are often found in furniture made in the style of hi-tech and minimalism. Light colors are widely used both in classical and in modern bedroom furniture style.
