People who prefer a calm ambiance in their bedroom often find it challenging to achieve this by selecting minimalist bedroom furniture. Our experienced salespeople at Casa Eleganza are happy to provide ideas. But before you can start shopping, you have three bits of homework to attend to:
-
Take everything out of your drawers and closet
-
If you haven't thought about an item or used it in six months, consider putting it into a donation pile. If it's in poor condition, toss it.
-
Now look at your bedroom decor and furniture. Is something too big and clunky, or simply doesn’t harmonize with a space? Find another home for it, and make space for your new design.
You will find that getting rid of clutter significantly improves the overall “vibes” in the space. In Feng Shui, messy spaces create stagnant energy. You are opening your space to the free-flow of Chi (positive energy), and preparing for your new furniture selections.

Low Profile
Just the Essentials
The Bed
Of all pieces of furniture in your bedroom, your bed is the anchor piece. The minimalist approach to a bed comprises low-profile, platform, and simple frames, like those we offer at Casa Eleganza. If the bed has drawers underneath, all the better.
Nightstands and Storage
Look for small, functional nightstands. These also usually offer some type of storage area. Keep everything streamlined by designating spots for essentials like a sleek lamp, your clock, books, and phone. Remember you're laying things out to fit your bed, not vice versa. Keep proportion in mind. Large items take over a room, while items that are too small leave a sense of things being undone.
Each piece of furniture has a place and purpose. Think about timelessness, versatility, and organization.
Neutral Color Palette
Think beige, gray, earth tones, and white. Add to that an accent or two using pale green, black, and dark blue. For fun, have a bright headrest pillow. Use art sparingly, but a few plants are welcome.
Material
Nothing glossy, and don’t mix too many materials, textures, and fabrics. Good choices include leather, linen, metal, and wood
Benefits of Minimalist Furniture in a Bedroom
For people who carry a lot of stress, a minimalist bedroom is soothing. It’s not “busy” because there’s plenty of negative space. Studies show that a restful environment helps you go to sleep more quickly.
Don’t like to clean? The minimalist bedroom is for you. Since you’ve already decluttered, that’s out of the way. Because there are fewer surfaces, you only need to do a little dusting.
