Elegant Storage Solutions for Small Bedrooms

Small bedrooms are wonderfully cosy, offering a snug and comforting retreat within our homes. However, these more intimate spaces can often present a challenge when it comes to storing our treasured possessions and everyday essentials. As we strive for the neat and clutter-free ambience that enables us to relax and unwind without distraction, those of us with smaller bedrooms must take a carefully considered approach to interior design.  

 

Create calm in the chaos with small bedroom storage solutions that not only allow you to make the most of the space, but also elevate your décor with a touch of comfortable luxury and exquisite style. Join us as we share our small bedroom storage ideas and explore the stunning Feather & Black furniture pieces that can transform even the most compact spaces, ensuring that your belongings are beautifully organised, and your living space promotes the peace of mind you deserve. 

Ottoman beds 

Ottoman beds are an ideal solution for small bedrooms, offering incredibly generous storage discreetly concealed underneath the mattress without taking up any additional floorspace. An intelligently designed hydraulic system allows safe and easy operation, so you can effortlessly lift and gently lower the mattress for quick and convenient access to your belongings. Every ottoman bed in our exquisite collection opens vertically from the foot of the bed, and as such they do not require range of motion on either side of the frame, making them exceptionally suited to a small bedroom space.  

 

The remarkable practicality of an ottoman bed does not come at the expense of beauty or aesthetics, as showcased by our wonderfully versatile range of styles. Add a touch of opulent glamour to your small bedroom with the sumptuous Ives Bed, featuring a cocooning winged headboard enveloped in a rich, textured fabric with five rows of exquisite deep button detailing for a beautifully feminine finish. For a contemporary twist on a classic look, our stunning Orla Ottoman Bed offers a relaxed yet refined feel that exudes rustic charm.  

Divan beds 

Like ottomans, divan beds make use of the area beneath your mattress to provide neatly concealed and easily accessible storage for your everyday essentials. Instead of lifting the frame to access the space, divan beds feature large, handle-free drawers that sit seamlessly within the base, allowing you to effortlessly retrieve your items from either side or at the foot of the bed. Divan beds are traditionally crafted from a wooden frame padded with soft wadding and upholstered in luxurious fabric, offering a supreme level of comfort.  

 

Our elegant divan storage beds are meticulously handcrafted in the UK by fifth-generation artisan bedmaker Harrison Spinks, ensuring exceptional long-lasting quality. They blend sumptuous luxury with incredible adaptability, enabling you to design a bed that perfectly complements your chosen bedroom décor. Both the Classic and the Premium Divan Bases are available in an array of stunning fabrics, elegant colours and heritage textures, complemented by a selection of beautifully crafted, coordinating headboards. Each style also offers a choice of three different drawer configurations allowing you to create the perfect small bedroom storage 

Storage furniture

You can further enhance the space in your small bedroom with meticulously designed furniture crafted to blend intelligent storage solutions with sophisticated style. Envisage a room in which every piece of furniture aligns with your storage needs and your chosen décor aesthetic, bringing a beautiful balance of practical functionality and luxurious elegance to your home. Select bedside tables with a slender, narrower profile and generous integral drawers, such as our Aubrey Bedside Tables, which add a touch of timeless charm to your small bedroom without overwhelming the space at the side of your bed. 

 

For a beautifully coordinated look in your small bedroom, our stunning matt black Casterton collection combines opulent elegance with clever storage. The Casterton Jewellery Chest features the spacious drawers of a classic tallboy along with a hidden compartment and concealed side panels to stow away trinkets and treasures. It’s perfectly complemented by the full-length Casterton Storage Mirror, with its discreet and elegant storage drawer. In small bedrooms where space won’t allow a full-size wardrobe, our beautifully compact, French-inspired Sienna 1 Door Wardrobe is the perfect solution to house your cherished garments. 

Tips and tricks for small bedrooms  

With a touch of imaginative thinking, you can create additional storage areas in your small bedroom to make the most of the space that you have available. Begin your journey by decluttering your belongings, letting go of the items that no longer serve you and keeping only those that contribute to your current lifestyle. Ensure that your existing furniture, including your bed, is the right size for the bedroom and consider removing or replacing anything that is too large or overwhelming for the space.  

 

Appraise your bedroom with a fresh eye, seeking out any areas that can be transformed into clever storage solutions. Perhaps you can hang clothing on the back of the door, add floating shelves above your headboard, replace table lamps with wall sconces or embrace the space in alcove windows with a beautiful blanket box. Select multi-functional furniture pieces that effortlessly adapt to your daily needs, such as a compact dressing table that seamlessly transitions into a workspace, a stylish bed that doubles up as daytime seating or a bedside table that can also be used as a bookshelf 

Small bedroom design inspiration  

Beyond your furniture, you can create the illusion of space by embracing a calm and neutral colour palette that enhances the natural light flooding into the room. Envisage cool grey, warm beige or dusty pink, adding pops of colour and texture with layers of luxurious accessories, such as velvet cushions and cosy throws. Adorning one wall with a deep jewel-inspired hue or a bold, patterned wallpaper can add a sense of depth in a smaller bedroom by drawing the eye through the space.  

 

Lighting plays an incredibly important role in smaller bedrooms, particularly those with limited natural light. In darker spaces, get creative with statement ceiling pendants, statuesque floor lamps or soothing uplighters to ensure every corner of the room is bathed in a soft and gentle glow. Place a full-length mirror close to your window to open up the space, reflecting and enhancing the sunlight. By following this guidance on designing a small bedroom, you can create a sanctuary that feels both spacious and wonderfully cosy.
