Workplace in the bedroom
A bedroom is a place in which a person regains his strength: not only physical, but also emotional. It is important to choose the design and decoration of the room, contributing to the relaxation and removal of psychological stress. To arrange the bedroom, a quiet, bright, isolated room, as far as possible from the kitchen, is suitable.
The organization of the workplace in the bedroom has its own advantage: a calm, quiet atmosphere will allow you to better focus on the lesson. In the absence of a free room for the workplace, its location in the bedroom is the best option. In this case, the interior can be equipped in such a way that the two zones - the working and the bedroom - do not conflict with each other, look harmonious and submit to a single energy.
The color scheme of the room and interior items
People from ancient times began to notice that color in a certain way affects the human psyche. So, for example, red, orange and yellow have an exciting and stimulating effect, while blue has a relaxing effect.
For a bedroom combined with an office, it is better to choose light, neutral colors:
- gray: a great choice for a combination of two zones. This color does not burden the psyche and vision, and against its background it is easy to hide the imperfections of the room or to highlight significant details of the interior.
- olive: another “calm” color. It balances the emotional state and relieves stress. When choosing this color, several features should be taken into account: olive absorbs light well, so there should be enough lighting; it is better not to choose dark tones, they can turn a room into a "swamp".
- cream: a good option for a small room, as it is able to visually expand the space. It has a soft emotional effect, gives strength and confidence.
These colors in combination with white will create a favorable atmosphere for both leisure and work, as well as reconcile and bring together both zones.
To dilute pastel colors and revitalize the room, you can use the bright colors of some home decoration. For example, a bedside table, a work chair and a lamp on an orange table “collects” space into a harmonious, modern and original composition.
The principles of the arrangement of zones in the room
To optimize the space of the room, it is important to correctly position the pieces of furniture that form the working and sleeping area. A well-designed layout of the room will allow the zones to fulfill their mission in a quality manner: to provide a comfortable sleep or productive work.
Sleeping area
There are general recommendations for the equipment of the sleeping area:
- it is better to place the bed in the opposite part of the room from the window or in the darkest part of the room. It is important to consider the convenience of approaches to the bed: they can not be cluttered;
- the bed should be placed along the room, head to the smaller wall without a window;
- It is not recommended to place the bed opposite the door;
- according to the rules of ergonomics, the distance from the edges of the bed to the walls should not be less than 70 cm.
But we should not forget that there are exceptions to all the rules, sometimes it is better to place the bed on the diagonal of the room if it is not possible to provide convenient approaches. In some cases, you can put a bed under the window, if the geometry of the room does not allow you to choose a different solution.
Work zone
It is better to equip the working area in the bedroom by the window. Adequate lighting will help create a working mood.
A good functional solution would be to combine the windowsill with the desktop. This will save space and properly split existing zones.
Another option for the location of the workplace is to connect to other functional pieces of furniture: racks, chests of drawers or cabinets. Such a solution will hide the working area and create the main emphasis of the room just like a bedroom. For example, a workplace as part of a cabinet:
Workplace combined with a dressing table:
In a composition with shelves:
Classic lovers will find the standard solution: a hazelnut-colored desk. In this case, it is better to position it in the opposite part of the room from the bed in order to maximize the distance between the zones from each other.
At the same time, the working area in the classical style exists independently and does not require support from the entire premises.
Interior elements in the room
In addition to color and furniture, lighting and additional interior details play a decisive role in the visual perception of a room. When choosing calm colors of the overall finish, it is recommended to dilute the composition with saturated details. It can be textiles and decor elements.
Creating a cozy atmosphere is important for the sleeping area, soft rugs, pillows and bedside lamps can help.
The working area must be well lit, so curtains or curtains on the windows are contraindicated. The ideal solution would be blinds and screens.
A work table should not be cluttered with unnecessary details: a table lamp and a computer are the necessary minimum for productive work. And it is better to decorate bedside tables or shelves with decorative elements.
