Make Me Home No.4

Welcome to Make me Home edition 4.

Weve been doing the dining, living and kitchen already and i guess its proper to feature a bedroom as well. This time, i want to feature a bedroom which is so typical to a filipino setting where the bedroom is shared by siblings. It is a common fact that due to limited space and budget, room sharing is an option to a modest family. Though privacy may be a little bit of a problem when sharing a space, intimacy and healthy relationships can be strengthen by sharing a room with someone who are dear to us.

This room may be bit of a challenge for me. When i saw the room, i thought, a bed with a pull out will definitely solve the small space problem. But, its kinda ackward for someone to sleep on the pull out right? In fact, sleeping in a pull out is just an option for a sleep overs. It will be greater and even righteous to give a bed to everyone so they can have a space of their own. So i envisioned a "chic retreat style" for this bedroom. This will definitely livened the space and give this room character.

A turquoise painted wall will be perfect for this small space. This paint color will brighten the space and make it bigger. The paint color will never be outdated since this color will definitely suit all ages and all gender.

Wood trims in white will definitely make a statement. Trimmings will run on the center of the wall all the way to the window to box that very unpleasant sight and to highlight this feature. Choosing trims with flowers design will be consistent on the chick retreat style for the room.

 A wooden blinds will be installed in the window. This will definitely screen too much sunlight and will give privacy yet freshness vibe to the space. Browns in turquoise will give the space a more relax look.

A floor to ceiling curtain in a patterned green color on both sides will widened the window. This will give an illusion of a bigger window thus making that wall a little bigger. I choose the combination of green and turquoise to tie the curtain together with the wall color. Geometric pattern was chosen to balance the design of the trim to make it more appealing to both sexes.  A black rod will be a nice contrast to the patterned curtain.

Two frames will be added on both sides of the wall and above the two beds for an added punch of color. Pictures of natural scenes, ornamentals, woods or even scenery will make a conversational piece. This frames should be identical in size and should be in black and white. Black color will popped on a turquoise wall.

Two single size bed with a wooden headboard will replace the existing bed. The two beds will be placed on the original position.

The bed painted in white, and covered with dainty floral pattern in yellow and green will be nice to tie up with the design.

A white nightstand in the middle of the two beds under the window will be added for additional storage. The bed frame and the nightstand should matched in design for a more cohesive look.

 A nice and simple black and white table lamp will be a nice addition to the space. I chose a sleek table lamp to a cleaner look on the night stand.

 A simple black vase with yellow flowers will be cohesive on the color palette.

These accessories on top of the nightstand will bring color to the space and are essentials for a bedroom.

And to finish the look, a small rug in between the beds should be added. I chose a horizontal designed rug in between the bed to visually widened the space and make it seem bigger. A black and white rug will contrast the dainty floral pattern on the bedsheets and will tie in the frames above the bed. This will unify the look of the space.
