Minimalism style bedroom design
Characteristic difference minimalism style is expressiveness and utmost brevity, and, in all aspects: in colors, the presence of furniture, decor and accessories. In general, this style is intended for lovers of space and ease of space. This style is especially good for cramped apartments, which in panel houses is perhaps the only opportunity to transform and add free space and lightness to the interior. For fans of the classics, the minimalist interior looks poor.
What should be the design of the bedroom in the style of minimalism
If the style of minimalism is characterized by expressiveness and, at the same time, conciseness, and, moreover, talk about the standard of a minimalist bedroom, then this, of course, Japanese style, from which a low tatami bed is borrowed, as well as a decor of natural shades with a minimal amount of furniture. The fact is that you can take different styles as a basis, equipping a bedroom in the style of minimalism. For example, it can be a classic style or high-tech, or a modern urban style. Based on the chosen direction, the selection of furniture and accessories is formed. If the classic is taken as the basis, then the furniture should be wooden, and the accessories should be classic. If the basis is high tech stylethen the furniture should already be out metal, glass or even plastic. Ethnic minimalist bedroom involves only natural materials or, at worst, very high quality imitation and, accordingly, ethnic decor. In this regard, for a start it is necessary to determine the direction, namely, the style that will be taken as the basis.
Minimalist colors
First of all, I want to note that no more than three colors should be used in the interior design. Usually, designers work in general with one color, and in most cases, non-color tones are used, such as white, black, gray and cream.
The classic technique involves a combination of white with a pastel neutral hue, for example, with gray or light brown. By the way, this option is a win-win. Or we can do without white, just take a combination of two neutral colors - it will look no less impressive. Well, if you use the third color, it is best to introduce it as an accent according to the principle: the brightest tone should fall on small surfaces, and two neutral colors fall on all other interior items and are evenly distributed among themselves.
However, you can do this: additionally highlight large and medium surfaces in two different colors.
Minimalist materials and finishes used
Regarding materials, we can say that here they must be perfectly processed, regardless of whether it is wood or stone. For decoration, as a rule, wood, stone and leather are used - materials that are natural and durable. However, chrome steel is also allowed, as is linoleum.
As for the walls - in the style of minimalism, they must be monophonic, regardless of the type of decoration, whether wallpaper or simply painted surface - no drawings and ornaments.
A simple geometric design is allowed only on the ceiling, for example, if you lower it around the perimeter and build in the backlight. However, it should also be simple, devoid of complex structures.
For flooring, the most suitable is parquet board or carpet. And just like the walls, the flooring should be without a drawing, a neutral color.
Features of furniture in the style of minimalism
Regarding furniture, we can also say that it should merge with the floor and walls. This is an ideal option, in which the impression of airiness and spaciousness is especially created. It must be closed modular cabinets, as well as podiums and drawers with absolutely no decor (no carving or painting). Furniture should not be bulky and large. There should not be any things in sight and no excesses. The bed should have a simple and concise shape, without decor. By the way, the beds have a central place in the interior. In most cases, this is a platform bed, the head of which is either completely absent or has a minimum of design.
The bed can also be on a stationary podium equipped with a storage system. The main thing to remember is that the difference between a minimalist bedroom is a low bed without a canopy, without a headboard and canopy with simple side tables on both sides.
Minimalist Bedroom Lighting
Lighting is one of the most important elements in the design of a minimalist bedroom. Light in this case should be as much as possible, while its sources should have the utmost conciseness. Chandeliers are absolutely not welcome, but spotlights as a main lighting are very recommended. If there are bedside lamps, then they should also be extremely simple. In general, the light should have two main centers - this is by the bed and by the closet. Wardrobes should be well lit with built-in spotlights. The bed can have a wall sconce or a lamp on a night table with dim lights. It can be a lamp with a large lampshade, located on the bedside table.
Textiles & Accessories
From textiles in the bedroom in the style of minimalism there is only bedding and a plain blanket. Even on windows it’s best to install jalousie or ordinary shutters and dispense with curtains. The walls should also be empty, only three to four decorative details are allowed.
A minimum of things on the bedside tables, except for an alarm clock and a table lamp. In other words, the style of minimalism has a number of strict requirements, because The decor should look monochrome. Well, its main characteristic feature is a complete order, a minimum of objects and a maximum of air and space.
Regarding accessories, it should be noted that a modest decoration of the head of the bed is allowed with the help of a panel, picture or several images in frames located on the wall.
If desired, you can create a niche. And this, perhaps, is all of the accessories. Well, maybe one thing - two house plants, no more. Everything else is unacceptable.
