Bedroom in oriental style

The bedroom is the most comfortable place in any home. It is designed for quiet intimate relaxation of the owners of the house, and strangers never enter it. Therefore, most often the design of this room is created at the behest of their soul, choosing exactly the style that will contribute to enjoyment during a night's rest in a quiet space of bliss and comfort.

At the present time, bedrooms in the oriental, Arabian style have really become very popular. They are distinguished by their external splendor, wealth and splendor of decoration. Oriental flavor fascinates and beckons. Refined, graceful, decor makes such a bedroom mysterious and truly fabulous. Representatives of the beautiful half of humanity are especially inclined to choose this style, because many women dream of creating a cozy corner associated with a thousand and one nights of the mysterious Scheherazade.

Creating an oriental style in a bedroom requires a lot of space and high ceilings. When planning to choose this design, it is worth weighing the pros and cons. It is also worth considering the main differences between the oriental style in the interior:

• floor covering with natural stone tiles;
• wall covering with high quality decorative plaster;
• arched windows and doors;
• a large number of handmade carpets;
• many draperies made of velvet and silk;
• massive furniture made of natural wood with elements of carving and painting;
• household items and decor that emphasize the oriental style.

Most often for room decoration in the oriental style, colors of a red-blue scale are used - with a predominance of colder shades... For those who prefer an exceptionally warm palette in design, experts recommend using sand or apricot shades. By adding gold paint to the interior design, you can also increase the oriental flavor, but the main thing here is not to overdo it. Gold color is recommended as an additional color to the main one.

You can choose white, silver or pearl in partner colors.... An important detail of the classic oriental style is the decoration of the walls in the same vein with the ceiling, so that they form a single indestructible composition. As a rule, the ceiling in the eastern bedroom is painted in blue tones, seeking an association with the firmament. At the same time, multi-level ceilings, decorated with intricate painting or carvings, look great.

Very important details when decorating the walls in the bedroom are a wide variety of niches with smooth lines, which are also done at different levels. Subsequently, the obligatory attributes of the oriental style are placed in these recesses - weapons, lamps, large flowerpots, gilded dishes, inlaid boxes and other trifles, without which it is impossible to create a magical atmosphere of the East.

The oriental style requires all pieces of furniture to be of impressive size. At the same time, the use of plastic, as well as surrogates, is not allowed - all furniture should be made only of natural wood. It can be finished with mother-of-pearl and richly decorated with intricate carvings. In a spacious room, dark wood furniture will look better.In a smaller room, it is better to choose light or combined furniture, but the emphasis should still be on light colors.

When choosing a bed for an oriental-style room, remember that it should be wide, with a large, beautiful headboard (and not too high on legs). No matter how large your bed is, it should not take up the entire space of the room. It is very important that there is enough free space to accommodate the necessary accessories and easy movement.

If you are used to sleeping on high beds, then you can get out of the situation by placing a sleeping place on a special raised podium. The most important symbol in the design of a pleasant and oriental-like mysterious resting place is, of course, the canopy; not a single Muslim bedroom can do without it. This attribute will not only decorate your sleeping place, but also give it a special comfort, intimacy, providing a sweet and restful sleep throughout the night.

In addition, it is recommended to use additional draperies indoors., with the help of which it is easy to hide flaws in the design and make the atmosphere softer and more enchanting. When choosing textiles, pay special attention to its color and texture. To create a fabulous atmosphere of the East in the design, translucent silk fabrics and soft velvet, bright saturated colors are suitable.

If you are not too tight on money to accentuate the atmosphere, you can use more expensive brocade for drapery. It is very important to choose the right bedspread for your bed. Since the bed occupies a significant space of the room and attracts the eyes, its decoration should very harmoniously fit into the overall atmosphere of the style.

To fully complete the image of an oriental fairy tale in your bedroom, you just need to fill the interior with classic Arabic household items. Most often, bronze and copper are used to make items that decorate oriental design settings (lamps with carved lampshades, large floor vases, wall dishes). Clay and ceramics, decorated with traditional painting, are in second place in terms of use in oriental interiors.

For oriental design also it is typical to decorate the room with many decorative pillows of different sizes and colors, which can lie not only on the bed, but also on the curbstones, on the chest of drawers. Sometimes they will be appropriate even on the floor. The main thing is to select all accessories by color (either adhering to a single color scheme, or playing on the contrast of colors - to create certain accents in the design). It will be nice if you place soft ottomans or a small sofa with low legs in the bedroom.

The finishing touch of the Arabic flavor in your bedroom will be scents and incense, characteristic of the inhabitants of the East, which they use as aromatherapy. With the help of certain essential oils, you can create a wonderful atmosphere, feeling like a real queen or sultan. But the main thing here is to observe the measure so that too exciting aromas do not interfere with a sound and full night's sleep.
