Improve the Feel of Your Bedroom
Everybody is aware of the massive change that can occur in a room when you alter the colour of the walls. Another overlooked way to change the way a room looks is to change the flooring, a purple rug can make a great alternative to exposed floorboards or lino.
A great way to change the feel of a room is to modify its shape. Occasionally this can present quite a challenge. Some rooms have ceilings which are not in proportion to the width of the room which can look strange - a great way to combat this is to install a false ceiling with down lighters. Whenever you find a toilet directly next to a bathroom its always a good idea to remove the parting wall. Conversely adding a parting wall where necessary can always be a great way to bring a space back into proportion.
A very useful way of increasing the apparent size of a room if it is quite thin is to hang large mirrors on opposing walls. Small mirrors also go a long way to achieving the desired affect and can often cost the fraction of the price of a huge mirror. The genius of it is your brain is fooled into believing the space is much larger than it is for the fraction of the cost of moving a parting wall. If the room in question is big enough you could utilise the space by building a mezzanine level.
In any living space you should always make sure the furniture you have is comfortable. If your room is one designed to relax in make sure that the furniture you choose for it allows you to relax.
