Give your white bedroom the wow factor…

A bedroom is one of the most used rooms in your home, and whilst the majority of that time spent is whilst we are asleep, choosing the right tone of white when decorating it is key to a good nights sleep.

White is certainly an ideal colour palette for a bedroom, as its calming properties will induce sleep. Choose soft and warm whites to ensure that your bedroom feels cosy and inviting, rather than the cooler tones, which could have the opposite effect, leaving you with a somewhat sterile and cold bedroom.

It’s also the perfect colour choice if your bedroom is small, as the reflective qualities of white will ensure that the room feels light and airy. That’s not to say that a bigger bedroom shouldn’t be decorated in white. A large bedroom can take almost any colour, but a compact bedroom may feel even smaller if decorated in a darker shade.

Even just a hint of pink in a bedroom gives it a feminine feel.

Choose a style

Deciding on a theme or style can be tricky. Do you want a feminine, pretty scheme for your bedroom or a more minimal, Scandinavian feel?

Storage

If you’re choosing white for your bedroom colour scheme, the chances are it’s because you want it keep it feeling spacious. It might seem obvious but storage in a bedroom is essential. Randomly scattered clothes over the floor or an occasional chair is certainly not conducive for a good nights’ sleep. 

We all need somewhere to hang our clothes, but the amount of storage required for a guest bedroom will be very different to that of a master bedroom. A guest bedroom might be where you choose to store spare bedlinen, towels or even duvets, whereas a dressing table may be required in a master bedroom along with plenty of wardrobe storage.

That’s the beauty of having sliding wardrobes. Whether you want more hanging rail space, shelving or even internal concealed drawers, the interior combinations can be selected to meet your requirements and needs.
