Bedroom Design Ideas Single Bed – If you have a small bedroom, you will know the true meaning of the word “sleep”. Maybe your full-size mattress will give your bedroom the feel of a bouncy castle (or, more accurately, a padded room). Or maybe the 12 inch gap between the foot of the bed frame and the wall needs a back partition to compete with.
. But a small snooze space doesn’t have to be a nightmare when it comes to interior design. “I love small to large bedrooms,” says ELLE DECOR A-List designer Michelle R. Smith. “[My youngest son] Bash refuses to sleep in his bedroom because ‘it’s too big.’

Small bedrooms—like other intimate spaces like powder rooms—offer unique creative opportunities. In fact, “the busier the better,” says Smith. “If you have a plain white wall, how is it different from the closet?” Instead, she recommends creating comfort with striped or floral wallpaper that enhances the space. Smith also recommends sconces instead of lamps and leave room for a side table, although a simple stand will do. After all, “you just need a bathroom and your phone.”

Interior designer Peter Dunham’s Parisian pied-à-terre may only be 300 square feet, but that doesn’t mean he skimps on style. In the ELLE DECOR bedroom, the A-Lister just got smarter about the space, choosing pendant lights, a high hammered copper headboard and a small bedside table to store bedtime reading material. “This is my aerial in the sky in Paris,” Dunham told us.
If you are on a tight budget, consider buying one investment for your small bedroom, such as a particularly beautiful mattress or throw. Here, ELLE DECOR A-List designer Andre Mellone chose matching throw pillows, a choice that ties in with the colors of the rest of the room, creating the feeling of being buried in a cozy cave where nature opens up.

Lacking DIY wallpaper installation skills? Too shy of bright colors? Tapestry can be a solution for your small bedroom. Just hang one behind your bed for an extended headboard and a rich sense of chic painting. Here at his private estate, ELLE DECOR A-List Titan Robert Couturier shows us how it’s done.
Gallerist Valentin Goux told us that he “didn’t do white walls,” but he certainly did white ceilings in his bedroom in Paris. Here, the light ceiling not only brightens the small bedroom, but also helps to reflect the light coming from the two-sided windows beautifully because of the soft light.
Limited space doesn’t mean you can’t sleep like a queen. Check out this bedroom in a luxury Aspen home designed by ELLE DECOR A-Lister Patrick Mele for proof. Here, the designer installed a beautiful butterfly motif on the bed. The structure does not take up an ounce of extra square footage and has the great effect of creating a “room within a room.” Does this mean we can call our apartment a two bedroom apartment?
If fabric rugs aren’t your thing, consider a bed frame that adds architectural interest. Designer Sam Sacks kept this Toronto bedroom crisp and white to make the custom four-poster bed the focal point of the space.

Whether you choose a shirt or decorate a room, vertical stripes create the illusion of height. In the bedroom of her New Orleans apartment, designer Michelle R. Smith covered the walls in classic blue Lewis & Wood tapestry. Dark blue velvet blankets and charming vintage artwork create a cozy storybook quality setting.

We’re especially obsessed with this wild cheetah print, courtesy of designer Lori Deeds. Bruschwig & Fil’s classic Les Touches print adds Palm Beach charm with a surprising neutrality.
Elegance is the name of the game in Lindsay Stall Falconer’s beautiful bedroom. In addition to gray, gray, white and high gold in classic fabrics, she upgraded the look with a pair of vintage lamps.
