Your bedroom is one of the most important rooms in your home, and should be made as comfortable and calm as possible in order to enjoy a wonderful night’s sleep. In this article, we’ve created the ultimate guide to choosing the right upholstered bed for your space, as this is another thing you’ll need to get right to achieve that perfect relaxing place to unwind in.
Because upholstered beds are also deemed upmarket, they are great for adding value to your household bedroom if you were ever to decide to sell. This makes them worth investing in, but only if it’s one that suits you and the people using it down to a T.
If you’d like to find out more information or have any questions regarding our products, make sure to contact our helpful team today. We know our beds inside and out, and we cover a range of unique requirements, from bedroom sizes and colour palettes, to materials and sleep requirements.
Comfort
An upholstered bed has a bed frame that’s made of comfortable materials like woven fabric, suede, velvet, or faux leather over a layer of padding. Offering a soft-yet-firm backrest to prop pillows against, the upholstered bed makes for a typically more comfortable bed than traditional styles of beds.
Upholstered headboards are well-known for their added back support for when you’re sitting up in bed, making those evening reading sessions and morning cuppa moments even more welcoming. Soft fabrics and materials used for upholstered beds create a much more comfortable experience for sitting and sleeping. The softer headboards and footboards work miracles for when you’re ready to lounge around in bed, and maximise comfort for movie watching and switching off from daily duties.
When choosing the right upholstered bed for your space, look at the material options you think would be most suitable for you and consider your day-to-day comfort.
Visual Appeal
Interior décor shows off our style, charisma and personality. Upholstered beds are fantastic for pulling a room’s intentional style together as you can choose from so many different styles, colours and materials. Not only does your upholstered bed need to suit you for comfort, practical and maintenance value, it needs to suit your choice of aesthetic appeal for this space.
An upholstered bed can create an elegant focal point for your bedroom living space, while taking on hundreds of permutations and looks. With so many fabrics, shapes and colours to choose from, you’ll be able to achieve your desired feng shui, while creating your new favourite place to relax in.
As well as this, remember to consider your choice of bed spreads and accessories to spruce up your bed when you feel like changing the room’s tones to follow seasons and trends. You’ll soon find that an upholstered bed can be the stunning gift that keeps on giving!
Think Practical
One thing many people desire in their home is more storage space. As households grow and you collect more clothes and personal items over time, the need for storage can quickly become a necessity. As well as being a stylish addition to your bedrooms, many upholstered beds offer a wide range of storage options to help you keep your things in order.
A bed with storage can help with the room’s aesthetic, giving a clean and elegant finish (due to your clothes, shoes and other bits and pieces being in their organised place as opposed to on the side, windowsill or floor). Opting for an upholstered bed with storage can also create a sleeker and minimalistic looking bedroom by eliminating the need for extra or any freestanding furniture such as a chest of drawers or bedside drawers. It’s a great way to get your things organised and hide away messy looking items, while also making your bedroom look bigger!
From storage in the form of drawers to ottoman beds that can be lifted up for storage underneath where the mattress sits, we’ve got multiple options suitable for your home’s specific need for storage.
Maintenance
We all know that whatever upholstery or furniture we invite into our home will need some form of cleaning maintenance required. So, before choosing the right upholstered bed for your space, consider a variety of materials and colour to avoid a high-maintenance addition to your household.
When it comes to low-maintenance materials, you have many options to investigate before you make your choice. Faux leather and leather are known for being easy to clean, while wool, suede and velvet can be more difficult to maintain and clean once marked. Polyester, olefin, linen and fabric are advantageous materials as they don’t soak up moisture, making them stain as well as being mould and mildew-resistant and longer-lasting when it comes to keeping your upholstery bed as good as new.
Regarding colour, lighter shades of fabric and material can show up stains, marks and oil from the back of your head much easier than darker shades. We’d recommend considering either a material that’s light and easy to clean, or a darker material that disguises dirt and might be more difficult to maintain.
