Why is designing a relaxing bedroom so important? 

Sleep hygiene is a term that includes both your sleeping habits and your environment. Maintaining good sleep hygiene can improve both the quality and quantity of sleep you’re getting, and optimising your bedroom for restful sleep can make a huge difference to the way you feel each morning. The good news is that boosting your sleep hygiene doesn't need to be difficult!

Decluttering can supercharge the serenity of your bedroom 

If your surroundings are cluttered, it can be difficult to switch off and truly relax. Begin your journey to bedroom serenity by removing any item that doesn’t need to be there. From here you can work on organising the items you do want to keep in your bedroom, taking care to ensure that everything has a dedicated place. 

Incorporating built-in storage can help you to keep your bedroom tidy, as you’ll have all the shelves, drawers and hanging space you need. If you already have plenty of storage but it could do with a bit of TLC, installing replacement bedroom doors is a simple way to breathe new life into your space

Choose a restful colour palette

If your bedroom needs rather more than a simple declutter, it can be helpful to start by thinking about the colours that you find relaxing and mood-boosting. Neutrals, soft greens, dusky pinks and pastel blues are all soothing colours which are renowned for minimising stress and promoting relaxation.

Pro Tip: Choose relaxing colours throughout your space, as this will create a cohesive design that feels considered and purposeful. Replacement bedroom doors come in a number of soothing colours that will work beautifully in a relaxing sleeping space, such as the Bella Pisa in dove grey, pistachio green or blush pink.

Select a comfortable, high quality mattress 

A comfortable and supportive mattress is one of the best investments you can make for your bedroom. When choosing your mattress it’s important to consider your sleep style, as stomach or back sleepers generally benefit from a firmer mattress that offers plenty of support whereas side sleepers typically prefer a softer mattress.

Pro Tip: You can also add an extra layer of comfort to your mattress by adding a mattress topper.

Use lighting to create a soothing ambience 

Every room can benefit from overhead lighting, particularly when it’s dressed with a beautiful and stylish shade. However, spending time in a brightly lit room before bedtime can negatively impact the quality of your sleep, which is why we recommend installing dimmer switches that allow you to control the brightness of your bedroom. 

Additionally, carefully positioned table lamps and wall-mounted sconces can help you to establish a soothing atmosphere, particularly when they are fitted with bulbs that emit a warm light. 

Use blackout curtains to support your sleep-wake cycle 

Blackout blinds, curtains and shades block out all external light, which can help you to maintain a consistent sleep schedule. They can also be easily pulled back to allow natural light into your bedroom during the day, which is also essential for boosting your mood and maintaining a regular circadian rhythm.

Dress your space with comfortable materials 

From selecting high quality bedding made from breathable materials that support temperature regulation, such as bamboo, linen and cotton, to positioning a comforting rug beside your bed so your feet don’t touch a cold wooden floor as soon as you step out of bed, dressing your space with comfortable materials is an excellent way to ensure your bedroom is a gentle and nurturing space that you want to spend time in.
