From Dreary to Cheery

▼ A tiny bedroom with bulky furniture that adds to space issues; the space is a lacklustre bedroom with little personality and dark green walls in a room that receives very little natural lighting.

From dreary to cheery, this project proves that any space can look brand new and inviting thanks to some new furniture and the power of paint.

The new floor plan accommodates a queen-sized bed, which allows this room to function as an inviting guest room. The new wall colour, combined with a pair of bedside lamps, light bedding and simple artwork visually fill the room with lightness. Accessories and decor are kept to a minimum, meaning the bed remains the focal point of the room.

The solution?

Installing a multifunctional bed unit which housed underbed storage drawers eliminated the need for a dresser and gives way to more usable floorspace. Wall mounted bedside shelves instead of nightstands create the illusion of more space.

This simple refresh was an easy solution to an uninviting space.
