140 Feature SMART CONFIGURATIONS Arranging your bedroom furniture largely depends on your floor plan, but the most effective setup is one where the bed, wardrobe and vanity area exist collectively and within close proximity. This is because these elements provide everything you need to kick-start the day. Locating the wardrobe and vanity area near the bathroom combines a daily necessity with another which in turn creates a multipurpose space that is both efficient and convenient for users. You do not have to go from room to room in order to search for a missing piece of attire or to put on make-up. This way, you can start the day right. Less time taken to prepare for the day means you can dedicate extra time for slumber. In other words, you can afford to hit the alarm clock, say “just five minutes more”, and snuggle in a bit longer. BE STORAGE SAVVY Clutter causes chaos. And in order to create a haven of calm, your personal possessions need a place they can call home. While rooms with more square footage can afford larger wardrobes, tighter rooms can take advantage of the space underneath the bed. Maximise space and minimise visual noise in your master suite by getting your contractor to build a bed frame with built-in storage. Or go all out with a raised platform bed – it provides you with camouflaged storage all across and underneath the decking without taking away precious space. DESIGN BY VERSAFORM When it comes to wardrobes, sliding doors need less clearance to open. STYLE TIP
