How to furnish a small bedroom

Article titles
Today, having a small bedroom is not uncommon. In modern houses, more space is usually dedicated to the living area at the expense of the sleeping area. However, this does not necessarily mean that you have to give up on having an aesthetically beautiful and functional bedroom. Contemporary design is in fact able to exploit all the available centimetres with furnishing solutions that increase, even only visually, the available space.

Furnishing for a small bedroom

So, where to start when furnishing a small bedroom? In these cases, it’s essential to have a complete overview of the available space, measuring every centimetre and identifying tailor-made solutions. Adok offers made-to-measure designs that are perfect for furnishing compact bedrooms. The result? A custom wardrobe with the quality of a handcrafted piece, but at much more accessible prices. Let’s take a look at all the available solutions.

Sliding door wardrobe

In a small bedroom, hinged doors are more of an obstacle than a solution. That’s why, in a compact sleeping area, the ideal choice is undoubtedly a wardrobe with sliding doors. This option is both functional and aesthetic: the key advantage of sliding doors is that they don’t take up floor space, which increases walkable surface and visually opens up the room.

From an aesthetic point of view, there are various finishes and colours to choose from — from mirrored to two-tone doors, and even smoked glass options for those who want the look of a walk-in wardrobe while still maintaining separation from the rest of the room. As for colour tones, light or neutral shades are recommended to avoid weighing down the space visually.

When it comes to wardrobe size, Adok’s modular system offers full customisation, allowing furniture to be tailored to the exact space available — without compromising on looks or impact.

Linear and open walk-in wardrobe

We have just mentioned walk-in wardrobes, and for a very specific reason. They are in fact a possible solution even for those who have to furnish a small bedroom. The dream of having an open wardrobe becomes reality by choosing a walk-in wardrobe in a linear style. A made-to-measure rack system makes it possible to customise compartments, shelves, integrated chests of drawers and equipment, in order to adapt the storage space to the specific needs of the master of the house.

The alternative to the rack structure is the vertical system, which is particularly suitable for lovers of minimalist style. The walk-in wardrobe, in this case, is built around specific uprights (which can be installed either on the wall or on the ceiling) on which shelves and equipment are then designed: shelves, chests of drawers and trays can be combined according to the tastes and needs of those who will then use the space.

In both solutions, the absence of doors works in favour of the square footage: the sleeping area gains living space, both actually and visually.

Bed with wainscoting

Now let us move on to space-saving solutions for the bed in a small sleeping area. The watchword here is “lighten up”: eliminate the superfluous without affecting the aesthetics, but by weighing each element down to the smallest detail to create an eye-catching impression.

The perfect bed for a small bedroom is undoubtedly the one with wainscoting: contemporary design has reinterpreted this classic element by depriving it of its pompous quirks to bring it back to the essentials. The wainscoting becomes a perfect wall headboard, because it masterfully interprets contemporary hyper-functionality without forgetting the beauty of the details.

The solution proposed by Adok is the Side model, a double bed composed of a three-sided sommier, available in three different variants. From the simplest wooden version, which represents the most minimalist option, it is possible to move on to higher, fabric-covered alternatives. Completing the picture is the headboard made of suspended and beautifully backlit panels. The thickness is minimal, making this one the solution of choice for those who want to gain space in a small bedroom.
