The bed is the focal point of any bedroom. Queen beds are particularly popular because they’re comfortable and provide adequate space for most couples. The additional 16 cm of width and height compared to double mattresses also makes them the perfect upgrades for most adults. Check out the different types of queen size beds on our catalog:
This decision seems simple but is usually the hardest. Answers are often contradictory and sometimes need a little exploration. One popular belief is that the bed should be placed against the main wall. This is partly true but isn't always the best solution because bedroom layouts differ.
For example, if you have a square floor plan, it’s best to place your queen bed at the center of the main wall. The central position gives the room focus and leaves adequate space to place bedside tables. It also gives you lots of flexibility when decorating the rest of the space.
However, if the bedroom is rectangular, place the bed against the longest wall. Sometimes the longest wall is adjacent to the door, or gas pipes may be fitted against it. If so, it’s best to place your queen-size bed against another wall while ensuring it’s the focal point of the bedroom.
Also, experts recommend placing the bed as a free-standing object if the bedroom is large and harmoniously proportioned. The premise is to alleviate the emptiness of the vast space and the lack of furniture in the huge space. You also want to consider other features like windows, fireplaces, and built-in wardrobes because they have a significant impact on where you place your bed. If the wall space is limited due to such features, it’s best to place the bed in the corner. The placement ensures that attention isn't distracted from any other eye-catching decor or furniture in the room. And if the bedroom is spacious, consider placing the bed at an angle to make a bold statement.
