Tips for Designing Your Bedroom for Better Sleep
Your bedroom is one of the most
important rooms in your home, because it has such a large impact on your
daily life. A bedroom that
creates a sensation of peace and harmony when you enter it will
contribute to a better night’s sleep, which will help you to face your
day feeling fresh and invigorated.
Here are some tips for designing a bedroom that will help you to
get a great night’s sleep.

1.
Choose Calming Colors
Colors have a strong impact on
our mood. Some soothe and
relax us, while others make us feel excited and awake.
Designing your bedroom to take advantage of naturally calming
colors can make you feel like you are entering an oasis of peace in your
own home. Blues, greens,
pastels, and neutral tones like sand and beige are good choices. |
2.
Use Subtle, Diffused Lighting
Bright, harsh lights create
exactly the kind of environment that you want to avoid in your bedroom. For a more romantic atmosphere, choose diffused up-lighting to
brighten your room while reducing glare.
You can even consider accent lights with colored bulbs, or
throwing a translucent scarf over a lamp shade to play with colors in
your bedroom. Use task
lighting such as a lamp on your nightstand for activities such as
reading, which require more light.
3.
Surround Yourself with Sensual Fabrics
Above all, your bedroom should
be a source of comfort and luxury.
When you sink down into your bed, your senses should be delighted
with how your sheets and blankets feel against your skin.
To this end, surround yourself with fabrics that feel luxurious
and sensual. Down
comforters, high thread count cotton sheets, or a satin duvet cover can
make a remarkable difference on your sleeping patterns. |
