Beautiful Bedroom Benches Design Ideas, Inspiration & Decor

Designing a bedroom is all about bringing different elements together and ensuring that they work seamlessly. Like in every other aspect of interior design and planning, it is all about a blend of form and functionality to a precision. While small bedrooms and studio apartments are all about eliminating clutter and saving up on ‘leg room’ as much as possible, larger bedrooms pose an entirely different conundrum. Your bedroom needs to appear visually balanced and large empty spaces can create awkwardness and bland appeal.

Introduce New Shapes and Textures

A bench at the foot of your bed can be much more than a simple continuation of the print or color combination that your bed sports. At times, it can stand out from the pack by sporting a color or pattern that is alien to the theme you are using. While this helps in offering a beautiful contrast, this can be further extended by introducing a bench that also comes in a varied texture. For instance a contemporary bedroom that largely employs glass and stone gets a whole new look with a bedroom bench in wooden tones.

Blending in With the Bedroom Theme

For those who are not very high on introducing a contrasting element in the form of a bedroom bench, picking one that blends in with the current color scheme or design pattern is the best way forward. The fabric on the bench at the foot of the bed could sport the same pattern as your window drapes or even the fabric that your bed sports. A tufted bench is also an easy way in which you can class up the bedroom space.

Playing with different colors and patterns will help in achieving the right result.

Tuck Away All The Mess!

For those in the UK, get your bedroom furniture at Homebase and then get yourself a bedroom bench to help you hide clutter. Yes, you’re hearing right. With innovative current designs that are throwing up furnishings which multitask with ease, you can always use the bench at the foot of the bed to double up as storage.

This obviously helps in giving your bedroom a cleaner look. But there are plenty of other advantages that the bedroom bench brings in. It gives you some additional seating space and does come in pretty handy when changing your bed sheets. You can even use a couple of small ottomans to make up the bench.
