So, you’re renovating your bedroom – your personal centre of calm – want to refresh your furniture to create a truly transformed space, but are overwhelmed by the many options available?
You’re in the right place. In this guide to choosing luxury bedroom furniture, we’ll explore the many options available, help you choose the best kinds of furniture for your bedroom (or guestroom), and dive into our range of bespoke bedroom furniture.
As manufacturers of luxury bedroom furniture, handmade vanity units, and bespoke kitchen islands, we’ll be focusing on your bedroom’s big furniture pieces here.
Depending on the size of space you have available, your bedroom furniture should include any, or all, of the following:
With so many mass produced options available online, and a huge host of bespoke luxury bedroom furniture manufacturers, like Parker Howley, able to create whatever your heart desires, where do you start?
When picking any of the furniture items listed in the section above, consider the following points to ensure you choose the perfect piece for your bedroom.
Functionality/practicality and comfort are perhaps the most critical factors to bear in mind when creating a bedroom/guestroom design.
Start by establishing your practical needs and create a room layout. This will help you to clearly identify the types of luxury bedroom furniture that can support your practical requirements.
How do you use your existing bedroom? And how do you want to use your new space? Does your bedroom need wardrobes? Or do you have a dressing room to cover this function? How many bedside tables do you require? Do you have room for an ottoman and additional storage units, or will your bed need to include roomy storage drawers?
Would you like a multi-purpose space? Perhaps you’d like to turn part of your room into a reading nook with a sumptuous chair and table for your coffee, or transform an empty corner into an office space with a small desk.
In a room where comfort is key, choose headboards, chairs, ottomans, throws and cushions that soften your space and promote sumptuous comfort. Consider how you can break up the hard materials of your furniture to add texture to your bedroom.
The benefit of working with a bespoke manufacturer like us, is the ability to coordinate each of your furniture pieces.
We can work with you to create a stunning, matching or coordinated suite of luxury bedroom furniture.
Create an entire collection of plain/stained Oak, or painted Tulipwood units. Choose matching wood or quartz tops, match or tastefully contrast handles from the market’s leading brands, and choose the exact door and drawer finishes you desire, to create a room that looks and feels cohesive.
Oak and wooden bedroom furniture is a highly versatile material that works beautifully with a huge range of additional materials. Experiment with pairing your wooden furniture with leather touches, glass and even metal materials. Select hardware finishes (brass, gold, chrome etc) on handles, accessories, mirror frames, lamps and lighting etc based on your chosen school of design, and be consistent across the room.
Before diving into coloured mass produced furniture, or selecting colours for your bespoke manufacturer to realise, first consider your bedroom’s chosen colour palette.Are you opting for muted tones or bold colours on the walls? Perhaps you’re opting for a more traditional wallpaper aesthetic? Are you colour drenching? (bringing colour to your ceilings too)
Consider the colours and tones you’ll be using across the room carefully before identifying the perfect complimentary or attractively contrasting colour/stain of your luxury bedroom furniture.
The size of furniture online or in showrooms can be highly misleading – often appearing far larger when in your space.If you’re going bespoke with a company like Parker Howley, your chosen partner will likely guide you through the sizing process to ensure your bespoke luxury bedroom furniture is the perfect fit for your space.
If you’re opting for mass produced furniture, here is some help with sizing-up, to ensure you create a cohesive space that provides you with everything you need, while not looking cluttered.
Beds: Measure the length and width of the area the bed will be placed in, making sure you leave room to navigate around it.
Wardrobes: Measure the width, height and depth of the wall your wardrobe will stand against.
Storage Units, Chests of Drawers & Dressing Tables: Measure the width, height and depth you have available, again, accounting for space to navigate around the unit.
