Bedroom design with panoramic, two or three windows

If there are several windows in the bedroom or a panoramic window, this is both a great advantage and a serious design challenge. On the one hand, the bedroom should remain a private seating area, on the other, it should acquire new functions. The key to success lies in competent light management.

The types of windows significantly affect the distribution of light in the interior. In a long rectangular bedroom, it is easier and more convenient to divide the space into zones depending on the lighting conditions. In rooms with a window on the side, it is more convenient to organize the space for rest and sleep. If the window is located opposite the door, this provides additional opportunities for the formation of a sense of perspective, including outside the room (when the door is open). And, in particular, in bedrooms with a semicircular window, you can use the right design to enhance the features and effects of classic styles such as baroque.

Bedrooms with panoramic windows provide an opportunity to play out the designer's imagination. Design options are appropriate both with light colors and with natural ones, for example, brown shades. In this case, a lot depends on the view from the window, since the bedroom with a panoramic window to a large extent continues and complements the landscape composition.

For a country house, decoration in the Scandinavian, Mediterranean or Provence style is well suited. In an urban environment, avant-garde, high-tech, loft will be relevant. This is all the more important, since panoramic glazing is often found in new buildings.

With such a relatively sparse layout, a number of important features should be taken into account. So, with the right approach, it is the windows that can become key design touches and create a suitable mood for the interior of the room. As a rule, rooms with two windows have a lot of light, and they can be learned to control. In well-lit areas, it is advisable to place, for example, an armchair, a coffee table, a sofa. This part of the room, in particular in a rectangular bedroom, can become a guest one. Or, if you like reading, a library. A bookcase with books will fit well here, especially in a long bedroom with an uneven window. Thus, the windows seem to divide the room into parts. Taking into account the types of windows, a mini-living room will appear near the first, and an office near the second.

On the contrary, in a well-lit part of the room, it is not recommended to put the bed on the right - the light will interfere with good sleep. It is better to organize the space for relaxation in the darkened part of the room. This will allow you to competently, effectively and tastefully use almost the entire footage. And one more thing - do not use partitions when planning, as they will impede the spread of light. Install screens if necessary.

In such bedrooms, you can create a real "kingdom of sleep" for yourself, open a wonderful panoramic view. However, drawbacks should also be retouched, for example, the possible presence of drafts. In addition, windows can absorb a significant portion of the living space.

It is better to divide a room with such a layout into several main zones. In the corner well-lit parts of the room, you can organize a living room or a library, put armchairs or a sofa, chairs, a coffee table.It will be possible to read there without using artificial lighting until late in the evening. Near one of the windows (it is better to cover it with thick curtains) the bed will fit well into the interior.

In addition, the window sills themselves, if insulated and covered with appropriate material, can be turned into an additional resting place. This mini sofa is perfect for naps or meditation. In this case, a stylish solution would be to paint the frame in an unusual color and hang bright curtains. However, for example, in Scandinavian interiors, frames are installed without window sills at all, which looks quite impressive, although it is not always a practical solution.

It is important not only to use the space efficiently, but also effectively. Stylish window decoration, selection of suitable colors will help in solving this issue. So, if the windows are small and close to each other, it is reasonable to use curtains. When placing windows on adjacent walls, blinds are ideal. If the windows "look" at each other, you can use drapery.

When decorating such a bedroom, it is better to use simple materials. Ordinary wallpaper, paint will do. The main thing - no complicated patterns - they can upset the light balance. The floor and ceiling should also not be weighed down with intricate ornaments.

As for the color scheme, it is, in many ways, a matter of taste, however, one should not forget that too bright colors due to the excess of light in the room can cause a feeling of discomfort. Pastel colors, soft colors will look good. Cool shades or natural colors are not excluded. Some of them may even be bright, but slightly shaded.

The overall style of the room can also include creative elements in an avant-garde spirit with its inherent contrast. Furniture of constructivist forms can emphasize the unusual taste. Another option is a more natural and natural Mediterranean style with rough fabric coverings. The Provence style, weighted with antiques, is also relevant here. You can also try to use the classics: return, in particular, to the Baroque or Rococo styles with massive partitions between the windows. The Scandinavian style with its practical naturalness is not excluded.

It is best to arrange all windows in the same style. Eclecticism in such a room is “enemy” number one. Both wallpaper and cornices should be similar. Depending on the level of illumination (in descending order), blinds, European (French or Roman) curtains, light textiles should be used. If the ceilings in the room are high, it is reasonable to cover the windows with curtains with a large pattern.

The color scheme can be very diverse. Bedrooms with three windows look good in pink and white decor. If the room is located on a high floor, high-tech style with its gray-white, muted, tortoiseshell shades will do. The loft style will also look beautiful. In general, minimalism is very useful here.

The main feature of a room with several windows, and especially with a panoramic window, is that it is almost completely visible from the outside. Consequently, one of the main design goals is to preserve comfort and privacy. Of course, you can always hide from the world with the help of curtains or blinds, but this does not negate the fundamental question of how best to orient the bed in the room.

In this regard, you should proceed solely from your preferences. It is important to decide for yourself what is more pleasant to see in the morning - landscape or interior decor. In the first case, beds with a high headboard are suitable - it will be pleasant to rest on them even in the afternoon.

We add that if the bed and the windows are separated by a sufficiently large distance, a chest of drawers or a fireplace will fit well between them. This will not only make the room more comfortable, but will also solve the problem of privacy. In small rooms, one cannot do without thick curtains and blinds. At the same time, it is in a cramped bedroom that it is important that the windows let in maximum light. Therefore, such a room should not be "overloaded" with furniture and decor. A workspace by the window will look good. It is reasonable to install a computer desk there. The countertop will also fit into such an interior. The "window sill-table" format is also suitable.

However, bedrooms with multiple windows or panoramic windows are an excellent field for design experiments. Even the most seemingly non-obvious solution here, thanks to the creative use of the possibilities of light, can turn out to be very successful.
