Gainsville is a designer furniture store offering a fantastic range of bedroom furniture in Melbourne. We thought this guide might be a handy way of helping you arrange furniture in your bedroom.
Arranging furniture is an art. That’s not to say that it’s best left to the pros, though. Everyone can design their own perfect space with just a little bit of thought and a lot of experimentation.
Before you start deciding where to put what, think about the furniture you’re using and try to use only the pieces that are necessary for the room to function.
This is especially important in smaller spaces – using fewer pieces will make the room look and feel a lot more spacious.
Another quick tip before you get started: Don’t buy new furniture until you’ve arranged the pieces you already have.
That way you’ll know the exact furniture you need, along with the dimensions and style you’re looking for.
It’s a good idea to experiment with different arrangements on paper before you start pushing furniture around the room. That way you can eliminate some options that won’t work without potentially scratching your floor or walls while moving your dresser for the 100th time.
Measure everything, as well as the dimensions of your room, then sketch out a couple of different options.
While figuring out how to arrange furniture in your new bedroom, think about your lifestyle. This could really affect where your furniture ends up.
Plan your walkways. If your bed is blocking your path from the dresser to the mirror, you could end up frustrated. Traditionally, beds are placed on the wall opposite the door or the largest one with no windows. Find a spot for your bed that makes the most sense to you, just make sure you can open and close your bedroom and closet doors. Placing your bed under windows is fine, however you may feel the cold drafts through winter.
When you’ve found the spot you think works best for your bed, arrange everything else starting with the biggest furniture item followed by smaller ones.
There are a lot of guidelines when it comes to how to arrange furniture, but there’s no wrong way to design the layout. Just figure out what works best for you and your space.
If you want, try experimenting with different layouts during your first few weeks living in your new place. When you hit on one that works, you’ll know it.
