Revamping your bedroom, whether it’s your first “grown-up” set in a new home, a growing child’s space, or a long-enjoyed sanctuary, can feel like a monumental decision. There are countless manufacturers, styles, finishes, and configurations, and knowing which pieces will fit your style, lifestyle, wardrobe, and even room, can be a lot to figure out.
However, selecting the right bedroom furniture set can establish a foundation for years to come, transforming your personal space into a tranquil, organized retreat where you spend a significant portion of your day. While style can evolve, entering the shopping experience armed with knowledge about primary pieces can help you curate the perfect combination to suit your needs.
Let’s explore the essential components of modern bedroom furniture sets:
These beds add a cozy touch to bedroom furniture sets, with options ranging from upholstered headboards to full upholstery. The tufted detailing often enhances the luxurious feel while absorbing sound, contributing to a peaceful atmosphere.
Many beds have the option to incorporate storage drawers into the base, making them great for keeping extra bedding, shoes, or even seasonal clothes tidy and in easy reach. In most cases, the bed must be purchased with storage already built-in, but there are some kids’ beds where storage can be added after purchase.
If you have multiple kids or simply have a child who loves sleepovers or wants a separate space for bedtime stories, a bunk bed could be a fantastic choice. Bunk beds come in a wide variety of styles and have fun features and updated designs ensuring both safety and enjoyment.
Open nightstands keep your room feeling modern, airy, and light, but can also look cluttered if you place too much on the exposed shelf. If you don’t need much storage space, or plan to keep your books and technology organized by your bed, then these are wonderfully fresh and accessible options.
Providing additional bedroom storage space with 2-4 drawers, these nightstands offer a more substantial presence and keep items out of sight for a tidier appearance. They can still be very modern in design but have a bit more substance to them than an open nightstand.
Hiboys are vertical modern bedroom dressers with 5-6 drawers, perfect for narrow walls or closets, helping to keep clothes sorted and organized. The number of drawers can be practical for helping keep clothes sorted and organized.
Offering ample storage space, modern bedroom dressers are substantial units that can accommodate clothes, blankets, and even jewelry, with options for adding decor or mirrors. These units need a wall of their own to stand against but have the added benefit of a lot of surface area should you like to add some decor or organizers.
Door chests are a fun storage option that gives you essentially the drawers of a Hiboy in combination with the versatility of a closet. Door chests can use barn door rollers (like below) or more concealed slides, depending on the overall style, and typically behind the door is a tall storage space with a rod, a set of shelves, or additional drawers.
Armoires and wardrobes are both vertical storage lockers, typically with 2-3 doors and a combination of shelves and drawers inside. These units are the tallest in bedroom furniture sets, truly making a statement while providing extra storage space.
Storage ottomans are a fabulous choice for any room of your house, and the bedroom is no exception. Serving as both seating and bedroom storage, these ottomans are perfect for the foot of the bed, offering a streamlined solution for seating and extra blanket storage.
If you don’t need extra bedroom storage, an airier bench may still be a welcome choice at the foot of your bed. Not only does it offer seating for getting ready in the morning, but it adds a “finishing touch” in creating a welcoming, stylish space.
Vanity bedroom mirrors can come square, portrait, or landscape, and are a nice option if you plan to get dressed and/or do your hair and makeup in your bedroom. They are large enough to give you a good look at least the top half of your outfit and are a great way to help a space feel bigger.
Floor mirrors can simply be full-length mirrors leaned against a wall or they can be more substantial units (like the one below) that sit on a stand and may even contain hidden storage for accessories. Floor bedroom mirrors let you see your entire outfit before you walk out the door to embrace the day ahead.
