Content
Most often, the bedroom has a modest size, and this is not surprising, because in it the residents mostly sleep and sometimes just relax, so in order to save space, many prefer to install a sofa instead of a bed. Properly designed bedroom with a sofa allows you to put all the necessary objects and things into the room and create an atmosphere of relaxation and comfort.
How to choose furniture?
The modest size of the room can cause difficulties when placing furnishings, but should not prevent the creation of an atmosphere conducive to sleep and relaxation, so you should use some of the tips from designers:
- when choosing furniture, it is desirable to give preference to multifunctional models. As an option - a sofa with a built-in drawer for linen. This sofa is also a place to sleep and store things. Shelves at the head of the berth are not only convenient for arranging objects, but also are a stylish decorative element;
- sofas with rounded edges visually "eat" the space, so models of strict rectangular / square shapes are the best choice;
- so that the furniture upholstery fits into the interior of the bedroom, sofas with a material that matches / contrasts with the shades of the walls, ceiling, flooring are purchased.
The furnishings of the room should be compact and easy to use, so the wardrobe is an ideal choice. Sliding doors do not need space for opening, and mirror shutters visually increase the room.
The optimal models of sofas for the bedroom are transformers that keep the area free, and when disassembled, create a full-fledged berth.
Types of sofas by folding mechanism
When choosing a model, it is the type of folding furniture that plays a major role, because it determines the simplicity and ease of use. Four types of popular sofas for the bedroom can be distinguished.
- Retractable - in the process of transformation three parts of the structure participate (one of which is located in the back, and two are the seat). To lay out the furniture, you need to pull the seat. At the same time, the part located in the back of the sofa leaves. On the free space of the slats, the seat part is laid. Advantages of the model - the berth is pushed forward and when folded, the structure has a very compact size and an elegant look.
- Click-gag is a somewhat improved model of a sofa-book, as it allows you to fix the back in three positions: for sitting, half-sitting and lying down. The compact appearance makes this furniture a worthy option for placement in the bedroom of adults and children.
- The Eurobook has a simple transformation mechanism that allows children and the elderly to easily manage the model. When unfolding the sofa, the seat is pushed forward, and the back is lowered into the free space. Comfortable sofas with a box for linen are quite suitable for furnishing a room for a girl or teenager. A simple control system makes this model a long-lived among other designs.
- Accordion - popular due to its simple transformation device and small parameters.The resting place includes three folding sections, one of which is the seat, and the other two are the back. Unfolding principle: the seat is pushed forward, before folding the back section. Then the seat is raised to a characteristic clatter and lowered. An important advantage of the model is that the sofa does not need to be moved away from the wall.
The cost of the sofa plays an important role in choosing a model. A significant part of the price is precisely the transformation mechanism, so the savings do not always pay off, since a cheap folding device breaks down most often.
Sofa Shape
In small bedrooms it is very important to rationally use the area so that comfortable conditions are created for relaxation, therefore, depending on the layout of the room, choose direct or corner sofas. Each of these models has advantages and disadvantages.
Straight shape models
These sofas can be called universal, as they fit into the interior of any style. Folding and non-folding models are available. Non-folding sofas should be installed only in large bedrooms, where there is a full bed. In this case, you can only sit on the sofa, and it will look like an element of the situation that does not have special functional significance.
Sofas for the bedroom, as furniture for relaxation, it is better to choose transforming ones, since with modest dimensions they easily and simply form a full double / triple bed. In one-room apartments, where the room combines the functions of a bedroom and a living room, this soft sofa is an indispensable piece of furniture. Special comfort in the bedroom will create models with fabric upholstery. Velor will provide a soft and pleasant touch, the tapestry will create an atmosphere of dignity and tranquility, the flock will look modern.
Corner sofa
A bedroom with a sofa instead of a bed is a great option to keep the room space free. Corner models most fully meet this requirement, because most often the sofa is installed in a corner, which allows you to use the "dead" zone and leaves the center of the room free.
A beautiful range of furniture is simply amazing. You can purchase a sofa with sides that are different or the same in length. There are designs with complex geometry and components.
In a small bedroom, it is most rational to install a transformer sofa. It is a folding sofa in assembled form that forms the style of the interior, and in a folding sofa it provides a calm and comfortable rest in a full-fledged berth. It will be ideal if the design is equipped with a storage box, as this will quickly remove bedding.
From the many options for sofas for the bedroom, it is better to choose a model that has the following transformation devices: euro-book, dolphin, accordion. All these types of furniture assembled are compact in size, which is why they are popular with owners of small apartments.
Corner sofas are great for a teenager's room. The assembled sofa will comfortably accommodate numerous guests, and the disassembled design will serve as a spacious place for a teenager to relax and have a good sleep.
Ambient color palette
It is correctly selected shades that will create a harmonious look of the bedroom with a sofa. The color of the product determines how the bedroom will be perceived by the guests (although, in fact, only the owners should like it). Of the many rules for interior decoration, several important wishes can be distinguished:
- so that the sofa becomes the main accent of the interior, models with upholstery of bright and contrasting shades are selected;
- combinations of light and dark shades always look stylish. In rooms with walls of warm light tones, sofas with dark upholstery look perfect;
- plain upholstery material suitable for interiors in the style of hi-tech, minimalism. Colorful mood is typical for Provence, country.
Light pastel shades are considered a traditional palette of upholstery. You can put a sofa in gray or brown tones in the teenager’s room, and the girl’s bedroom will be decorated with furniture upholstered in olive, beige, white shades.
Bedroom interior with sofa: design guidelines
Near corner sofas, bedside tables can look ridiculous, so a great alternative for them is wide armrests with wooden overlays.
For a quiet sleep, it is preferable to place the structure so that the head is on the wall.
To the calm design of a small room does not become boring, around the furniture you can install bookshelves or equip a niche.
The place for the sofa should be chosen so that the bedroom furniture, when unfolded, does not interfere with the tenants' free movement. A 50 cm wide passage is sufficient for comfortable movement. If you take this recommendation into account, the product can be left unassembled for a long time.
A huge amount of furniture for sleeping can make it difficult to choose the right model. A non-standard way to solve the problem of choice is the “by contradiction” method. To do this, it’s enough to understand what you definitely don’t want to see in the bedroom. If the method does not help to decide, it is worth contacting professional designers. The specialist will competently take into account the wishes of the residents and the possibilities of the room.
