Breathing Room

Stop cramping your style - turn a cluttered bedroom into your dream space

If you're constantly trying to avoid your cramped bedroom - or if there's just not enough room for you and all of your stuff - maybe it's time to make some changes. Open up your space and create a welcoming bedroom by staying cool, calm and collected.

Start weeding

"People tend to hang onto things they don't necessarily need, such as too much furniture and accessories," says Katie Hixon, owner of Katie Hixon Interiors, Inc., in Columbus, Ohio. Take a thorough look at what's in your bedroom and keep things to a minimum. For those items you just can't let go of, consider storing them on permanent or temporary shelves in closets. And when your closets are full, remember the space under your bed.

"For single or full-sized beds, you might try raising the bed up with bricks to create more room for boxes and crates," says Marcia Connors, ASID, co-owner of Growing Space Interior Design, in Canton, Mass.

Chill out

While you don't have to paint the walls white to make a room feel spacious, Hixon says dark hues can pull the walls in. "The conventional wisdom is that light colors make things look bigger," adds Connors. "Plus, physiologically, cool colors are more restful since they make blood pressure and body temperature go down." Opting for light blues or light greens might be better choices than oranges, purples or reds, which increase blood pressure and body temperature, she notes.

Pull it together

According to Connors, less furniture is best in small rooms. "However, some people have their home office, TVs, reading area, or exercise equipment in their bedroom since they don't have other areas to put them," she notes. In this case, she suggests keeping fabrics and furniture coordinated to give everything a unified look.

Lighten up

Incorporating well-balanced lighting can really open up a small space, says Hixon. "Place several lamps throughout the room - maybe put a petite lamp on each side of the bed and a few larger ones in the corners of the room for consistency," she says. If you have overhead light, Connors says a white ceiling fan with lights against a white ceiling can make a room feel larger.

Remember to utilize your windows too, notes Hixon. "Let natural light in by keeping window treatments lighter weight and more minimal," she says. "They can still be full length with a privacy option, just not heavy to the point that they overcome the entire room."
