Bedrooms should be a tranquil retreat reflecting your own personal style, while providing plenty of storage space. Just small changes to your bedroom furniture can completely transform the look and feel of your space. So, to help you get inspired, here are some great bedroom furniture ideas to suit rooms of all shapes and sizes.
Create a Spacious Atmosphere with Small Bedroom Furniture Ideas
When exploring bedroom furniture ideas, particularly for small spaces, the main thing to consider is how you can maximise the appearance of space in the room.
Not everyone is lucky enough to have a spacious bedroom. However, with some clever bedroom furniture ideas, you can achieve that light and airy atmosphere. With smaller bedrooms, space is a key, and making sure you opt for furniture with legs, whether that’s a bedside chest, like the Jewel 2 Drawer Midi Chest or the Dynasty 2 Drawer Bedside Chest in Stone Finish, is a great way to maximise the room. Alternatively, a dressing table, like the Sofia Dressing Table in Silver Mirror is another solution for your bedroom storage needs.
Mirrors play a pivotal role in small bedroom furniture ideas. Whether hung on the walls or as free-standing mirrors, they reflect light, creating the illusion of a larger space. This simple addition contributes to a brighter and more expansive atmosphere within the room.
Most smaller bedrooms come with limited storage options, so when you’re searching for bedroom furniture inspiration make sure you’re looking at ways to maximise your storage, whether that is through an ottoman bed, or making use of awkward corners by placing mirrors, baskets, or even an accent chair in them.

Stay Organised with Space Saving Bedroom Furniture Ideas
No matter what size your bedroom is, everyone can benefit from bedroom furniture ideas that help you stay neat and organised. This keeps the focus on your room’s aesthetic and makes your daily routine run smoothly.
Where space is a premium, sliding door wardrobes emerge as an excellent bedroom furniture idea. These wardrobes can store all your clothing items, while requiring minimal floor space. These can also be customised in a choice of sleek gloss finishes, warm wood tones or mirrored panels to suit your interior style.
You can complement your wardrobes with matching ottomans and blanket boxes. To achieve the ultimate organised bedroom space, you can even use an ottoman storage bed to conveniently stow away blankets or out of season clothing.

Make a Statement with Upholstery and Bedding Ideas
Upholstery can be a quick and affordable way to completely transform the look of a room. Adding blankets, bed throws, cushions and pillows allows you to personalise your bedroom furniture on a budget. It also means you can easily update it to stay on trend.
In small bedrooms, colour schemes play a key role in creating the illusion of space. Neutral shades are among the best bedroom furniture ideas for smaller rooms, as they contribute to a light and airy atmosphere. Adding pops of personality can be achieved through accent cushions, bringing in touches of colour without overwhelming the space. Another impactful option is a statement headboard, injecting a sense of drama into the bedroom while serving as a focal point.
Of course, the best bedroom furniture ideas start with the right mattress as a foundation. Our Best Mattresses Guide can help you find yours.
Illuminate Your Bedroom Furniture with the Right Lighting
Once you’ve discovered your ideal bedroom furniture, it’s time to illuminate them to really show them off. Lighting is a key but often neglected element of your bedroom space. A carefully chosen lamp or ceiling light can tie in with your interior design theme or draw attention to certain areas of your room.
One of the simplest ways to transform your bedroom lighting is through table lamps. Whether it’s a statement shape or a more understated, elegant addition to your bedside table, these can be both practical and stylish.
