Color or light?

Correct answer: both. A small room should not be swallowed up by shadows, which means that there will certainly be a chandelier on its ceiling, but not a sprawling one, but the simplest one. It’s good to hang a sconce in the corner, and put or hang bedside lamps next to the bed. Each of these designs should have soft lampshades, then a pleasant diffused light will appear in the room.

Decorating a small bedroom

“In the design of a more or less square bedroom, 12 sq. m. You can try to equip the built-in wardrobe structure "

In this small-sized interior, color will be the main factor. And this is not because the room is small, but because the construction of any interior begins with the choice of background.

Color solutions in the design of the bedroom 12 sq. m. will be taken according to two interior components:

  • Global surfaces (floor, walls, ceiling).
  • Furniture.

The main point in this will be the features of the architectural layout of the bedroom. A 2x6 room is more of a narrow corridor than a full-fledged area for relaxation.

The same items that appear in the room should be comfortable and, if possible, multifunctional.
