Opt for a built-in shelving
Having standing shelves often consume much space, and block walking area, especially when you have a smaller bedroom. Hence, we recommend opting for shallow built-in shelving fitted into the walls, mostly behind your bed wall, helping you gain storage space & free up walking area.
Opt for a shelving unit that is at most 12 inches deep. Having built-in shelving behind your bed will eliminate the need for extra storage furniture like side tables and cabinets.
We recommend placing the bed in the middle of built-in shelving, so you have ample walking space on both ends of the bed.
For the small bedrooms, take built-in shelving to the ceiling, making the ceiling look visually higher and the room wider in space. Opt for the built-in shelves colour as white or a light contrasting colour to your room walls to create depth layering.
Mirrored Closet Doors
Mirrored Closet Doors are one of the best psychological tricks to make your small bedroom look prominent. Opting for mirrored closet doors will double your room’s visual square footage.
