Lifestyle
The bedroom serves as a daily retreat and is integral to people's sense of comfort and well-being. Bedroom sets offer comfort when the design is responsive to the users’ lifestyle. Sleeping patterns are fundamental to determining the type of bed. Beds that are shared should be sufficiently roomy to allow undisturbed sleep. Even single sleepers may choose a larger bed at the onset than try and upgrade it at a later stage.
Features
Features like a headboard with bookcase or a nightstand with provision for portable lamp bring value-addition for those who like reading in bed. Kids' bedroom beds with rounded corners offer increased safety. Shelving units and desks for bedrooms create a study area.
The bed mattress is most critical to a good night’s sleep and highly dependent on personal preferences. It is best to personally try out a mattress before buying it.
Based on your lifestyle, you may feel that some items of a bedroom set are redundant and you need not spend on them.
Room size and storage requirements
Bedroom sets can include a range of items like bed, mattress, bedding, comforter, dresser, jewellery armoire, night stand and even small desks. The number of items and their size must be selected, keeping in mind the room measurements and the clearance requirements between these items. For smaller room sizes, it is recommended that you pick multi-functional units like storage beds and limit the number of items of the set. Storage beds may contain drawers or compartments. High platform beds can also be used with under-the-bed storage options. Beds with headboard storage can augment storage potential of a bed.
Decor
The aesthetic aspects of a bedroom set can be based on your personal taste. A wide variety in designs is available ranging from the antique to the contemporary. A good starting point is the selection of the bed since this is the largest piece. You need not be limited by having to choose all the items from the same set. You can consider designs which allow easy compatibility with other sets or existing furniture items. Express your personal style by choosing a bedroom set to suit your lifestyle and the bedroom setting.
