If you belong to that group of people who stand out for their energy, activity and dynamic lifestyle, then you will surely like such a bold interior solution as high-tech bedroom decor.
You won't be disappointed with this high-tech décor with excellent functionality, unusual furniture made of glass and shiny chromed metal. Why? Yes, because all this is very relevant for young people living in a crazy pace of the changeable modern world!
Characteristic features of the style
This direction is characterized by conciseness. It should be traced not only in the design of the global surfaces of the room, but also in pieces of furniture, as well as the smallest accessories. In the decor of such a bedroom you will not see floral prints and curtains with frills, everything here is always simple, practical, strict and restrained. Do not think that the atmosphere of an oasis of relaxation will turn out to be too ascetic; on the contrary, in such a solution, the room looks simply ultra modern.
When working on a high-tech interior, be sure to follow all the key steps:
- All surfaces in the room should be as smooth as possible. Sometimes they are allowed to have an unobtrusive, slightly noticeable texture characteristic of a plaster coating. Also, the walls can be given the appearance of painted brickwork.
- High-tech bedrooms should only have modern furniture, because high technology does not recognize retro and vintage.. The same rule applies to household appliances present in the rooms. In this regard, the assertion that hi-tech is the style of progressive and very wealthy people who can afford to keep up with progress becomes more than relevant.
- The window zone in a newfangled interior is never decorated with curtains, curtains, curtains. There is only room for all sorts of blinds. However, designers make allowances for the specifics of the room, so in the bedroom, if desired, curtains of a simple cut, sewn from light fabrics that shimmer with a metallic sheen, can be used.
Color nuances
The high-tech bedroom is most often decorated in black. Such interiors are good in various variations of gray or in light pastel colors, such as:
- Sand.
- Beige.
- Ivory.
However, do not be naive to believe that this is where the choice of color palette ends. The main background of the room can be quite diluted with shades of blue, red, green, pink, yellow. The only thing to be wary of is rainbow busting. The abundance of colored inclusions, randomly located in the decor, will quickly tire your eyes. As for the presence of drawings and colorful bedspreads, they are completely out of place here. The exception is drawings with contrasting geometry, which are allowed on carpets and curtains.

Ceiling Armstrong
This suspended ceiling structure is assembled from metal elements:
- fittings;
- chrome pipes;
- bolts.
That is why it fits very organically into the context of the main decor. Do not try to equip this unusual ceiling in too pretentious form, because its purpose is simply to give the bedroom a touch of originality, and not turn it into a space module.
Stretch ceiling
This high-tech ceiling finish is optimal. The interior gravitates towards the brilliance of steel and metal, so the ceiling canvas should also have a glossy sheen. A stretch ceiling is not just a great opportunity to decorate a bedroom in a demanding high-tech style and hide the defects that ceiling surfaces always have, but also the best way to correct the perception of space as a whole, which is very important for rooms with low ceilings and a small area. The reflective properties of glossy matter will undoubtedly contribute to an increase in the height of the walls. Stretch ceilings in metallic style will look very impressive in the newfangled decor.
Floor
Flooring is best done from wide boards in the natural color of wood or laminate in light cold tones. The texture of the floor in a stylish decor should not attract attention and stand out. The most durable and environmentally friendly material for finishing this surface, which, in addition to beauty, will add coziness to the interior and make hard high-tech comfortable, is parquet.
Linoleum and ceramic tiles can also fit into the decor, but designers prefer not to use them in high-tech bedrooms.
If you cannot do without these materials, then remember that linoleum with its color should not resemble a wood cut, and a system called “warm floor” must be laid under the tile, otherwise it will be very uncomfortable to stand on such a coating, not only in winter, but also summer.
Walls
As already mentioned, high-tech vertical surfaces are distinguished by their smoothness and should have neutral colors. Fans of colorful interiors can complement the main palette with rich colors of green, red, yellow spectrum.
The walls of the bedroom in a real high-tech style can be “dressed” in wallpaper, all that remains is to choose their metallized options with a good reflective surface effect. Such decoration will emphasize the style of the situation. In addition, these types of wallpaper have proven themselves in operation, because they are very durable and easy to care for.

The design of the bedroom in this unusual stylistic decision must be planned. It cannot be created on the go, as they say, as the card falls. This is important not only in color games, but also in furnishing. You need to accurately calculate what specific furniture will be needed in your bedroom and not go beyond the agreed upon for any item.
Hi-tech is akin to minimalism, so it is disgusted by the environment overloaded with furniture. In this aspect, it is rational to select multifunctional designs in the decor. If you take a bed, then it should be of a modern shape, ideally be able to change its geometry, and also be equipped with a headboard adjustable in height. Speaking about the closet, I would like to note that it can be very modest in size, but impress with roomy ergonomics.
The perfect filling of the bedroom in an ultra-fashionable high-tech style will be transforming furniture, which:
a) beautiful
b) easy
c) mobile.
If you can get by in the bedroom with one bed, a chest of drawers and bedside tables, the situation will only thank you, because in hi-tech even a modest dressing table can easily deprive the interior of conciseness.
Does this approach bother you? But think about it, because the bedroom is a place with a specific purpose. Here you need to rest. So why turn a room into a furniture warehouse? And the minimum of items that are lucky enough to get into the interior should be distinguished by simplicity and geometric shapes, as well as clear lines. Forget about carved handles and decorative fittings, because from now on in your bedroom there is a realm of metal, plastic and glass.
The question arises: what then will make the bedrooms in this strict high-tech style cozy? The answer is: products with upholstery. You may well put an armchair in the room in the original exterior, the main thing is that its textiles are in harmony with the general background of the situation.

Hi-tech style strives for asceticism, so does it really need to be decorated? Imagine yes! Accessories in the form familiar to us, of course, will not be present in it, the role of decorative elements will be taken by expensive equipment and monochrome photographs in stylish frames. In such an interior, a sophisticated mirror or an aquarium in the appropriate design may well appear.
back to index ↑Mirrors and high-tech
In the considered stylistic direction, mirrors play a special role. With their help, space is masked.
The secret of this design trick is that high-tech bedrooms never use small mirror inserts.
Decorators take a huge mirror canvas and hide one of the walls behind it.
No less successfully expand the space and large floor mirrors. In this case, the effect is somewhat different. The wall does not completely disappear into the mirror - the mirror simply becomes the prototype of an open door or an imitation of a doorway. Those present in the room, looking through such a “door”, will be sure that there are more rooms behind it.
You can also play with space in this way: one rectangular mirror sheet is placed against the wall of the bedroom, made in high-tech style, the second, absolutely equivalent, is opposite, and the third mirror is placed at a certain slope. The result is a whole football field. Beautiful, unusual, but with the use of mirrors in the sleeping space, you still need to be careful, because their abundance often creates discomfort and arouses anxiety.
back to index ↑Hi-tech lighting
The style is towards bright lighting, so do not limit yourself and boldly create multi-level lighting systems. With all its love for rigor and geometric accuracy, high-tech lighting prefers decentralization.
The main source of light supply will be a chandelier, but additional lamps can be halogens, string or built-in lamps, LED strips. All this is mixed, combined and hung on stands, brackets and other original fixtures. The main thing is to illuminate the bedroom space in high-tech style evenly and in different directions.. What is also important is to use lamps that emit cold or "lifeless" white light.
back to index ↑Conclusion
Summing up, I want to once again focus on the specifics of the stylistic features of hi-tech.
- The construction of the interior is based on a combination of light and space.
- The original feature of the decor is the absence of accessories.
- The unusual technogenicity of the situation stands out.
- In the environment you can see only ergonomic, modern, multifunctional furniture.
- The overall decor is always done in cold and restrained shades.
In fact, these stylistic interiors are more common in the offices of institutions, and their decor is not at all associated with home comfort. But it is worth awakening your imagination and making quite a bit of effort, as you yourself, without realizing it to the end, will become the owner of a luxurious high-tech bedroom. Is this not a miracle of design thought?
