How to Kickstart a Good Bedroom Design Project?


Dear friends,

Any room in your home is primarily a space within walls, floorand a ceiling. When the structure or the apartment getsconstructed, the architect and the structural contractor hastaken all the care that it is stable and can withstand outsidenatural forces like, earthquakes, heavy winds, rainfalls, etc..

Amongst all other rooms the bedroom is a space where comfortlevels have to be kept maximum. But the word comfort is a relative term. The meaning of comfort is not just a sleep of8 hours. A good sleep inside a bedroom is a bare minimum expectation which can not be ignored.

But comfort varies from person to person. For someone itfeels good by just sitting in a rocking chair, sipping a cupof coffee and enjoying good view around the house or forsomeone it could be listening to good music or watching nightsky full of stars.

So when it comes to design any space many aspects come intoconsideration. Design is not just arrangement of furniture,choosing color schemes, deciding textures/finishes etc..Ithas to deal with "feeling good" about the space.

Of course all these factors when used in a unique way, canturn out to be a great design. The above mentioned "feel good" factor comes about by selecting a "theme" based design.

When we try to look towards the empty space through a theme, everything gets a definition and can be dealt uponeasily.

Let's see an example.

If I decide to decorate a bedroom which is empty, first Iwill have to decide on a particular style to execute. If it'smy own bedroom then I must know what kind of style best suitsmy personality. This choice of style will greatly influence,the kind of furniture, color scheme, finishes I use.

Here I can go for contemporary style/oriental style/countrystyle. All these have a unique set of parameters right fromthe layout of furniture to what diameter should I use for thecurtain rods.

A design deals with a big view starting from furniture layout and goes in-depth, deciding with each and every minute detailsof linen. All these affect the final expression, which isrequired for "feeling good". All these detailing will changethe moment to shift from your theme/style.

That's why by fragmenting the entire design process into themeoptions can make the process easier and gives a direction tostart the execution of any project.

If you are designing for someone else, it's a good idea tofirst know your client's likes and dislikes. I mean hispersonality, his hobbies, his job profile, etc... Rememberthat HE is going to use this room, it's his baby.

Of course once you start with a theme, it normally happensthat you will get more richer and creative ideas duringprimary sketching process.

I hope this article was helpful.
