Dear friends, today I am going to share with you little secret that I have experienced myself recently. It's a simple trick which is almost every time overlooked. This simple trick has proven to be a very comforting experience for me. Let's look at it from scratch. In any interior space in our home, furniture plays a major role as far as comfort qualities are concerned. Furniture is the first thing that we see. When we say that a room is occupied it is primarily occupied by furniture. A room without any furniture pieces in it is absolutely useless. The overall volume of the furniture elements directly affects our comfort factors in a room. If we consider the case of bedrooms here, a double bed is the commodity that occupies maximum space. Just imagine if we remove the double bed from your room what will happen? the room will start looking bigger because of the perceived volume. Now here is a little trick you can try? Instead of using a full sized double how about using a platform bed? A platform bed is nothing but a bed with less height than a full sized bed. So what's so special about it? Because of the reduction in height the overall volume of the bed as compared to other furniture pieces is less. Because of the less volume of the bed the bedroom is perceived bigger in size. In addition to using a platform bed if bright color combinations are used such as white and yellow, a small bedroom is perceived as a slightly bigger room. A normal double sized bed normally measure something around 1800mm(L)X1800(W)x450mm(H). But a platform bed has a slightly less dimensions in plan and the height is about 15" that's about 380mm above the floor level. This creates a less volumetric furniture piece which is visually more light in weight than a full double sized bed. Platform beds are available in wooden as well as steel structures. Many manufacturers specifically manufacture mattresses and other accessories that would specifically help the easy and comfortable use of the platform bed. Depending upon the design/material/finishing qualities a good price range is also available. Being light in weight it can be easily moved and transported to any location within a room. If you are looking for a easy and affordable way to furnish your bedroom, then a platform bed can be a better choice that would fit into your budget and create a better aesthetically visual quality.
