Furniture modules are a convenient and beautiful solution for small spaces. They move apart when needed, and "hide" the rest of the time. Folding tables and chairs, convertible wardrobes, armchairs - they are all best friends. So the free space is saved, and there is enough functional furniture.
Under the bed
Why not get ideas abroad? For example, use the impressive space under the sleeping area to store seasonal items or bedding. It is especially convenient when the bed has built-in storage. If they are not available, wicker baskets, plastic containers or roll-out boxes on wheels will do. Lift furniture is also a good option.

Especially desperate people can raise the bed to the second tier of the room. For example, install it above your desktop. Yes, you have to climb up the stairs and unlearn how to toss and turn in your sleep. But there will be an additional area! And in general, if the height of the ceiling allows, let the whole bedroom "grow" upward. Wardrobes with mezzanines, bunk beds, hanging shelves - everything will come in handy in the battle for free space!
Focus on the walls
Another interesting solution that does not overload the interior is built-in wardrobes under the ceiling. Such furniture is painted in the color of the walls. However, the main thing is not to get carried away with the depth of such a repository.

The idea of placing shelves around a window opening, filling the wall, is not new either. Such a rack saves a lot of space. There is no need to spend money on slopes: they are replaced by sidewalls. And instead of a window sill, they equip a small cozy sofa.
The space above the headboard is also undeservedly ignored. Hanging shelves and shelving can be used there for accessories and oversized items. For example, for hairbrushes or cosmetics. And for little things - hanging pockets. The rack is designed as an extension of the bed or painted to match the color of the wall. Otherwise, the overhanging boxes will "crush".
Expanding horizons
The windowsill can also be useful. If the height from the floor to it is about 75-80 centimeters, a wide tabletop is installed instead. It turns out a full-fledged workplace.
If the layout allows, the countertop can be extended to the entire wall. The resulting area is easy to fill with cabinets or drawers. Sometimes it is even used as a TV stand.

Is the windowsill low? It doesn't matter - you get a place to relax! For example, a coffee table for reading books. The optimal height is about half a meter. If the bed is next to it, the extended window sill will become its logical continuation.
Multifunctional furniture
A small bedroom needs multifunctional items. Instead of the usual wardrobe, there is a model with facades that folds like an accordion. Instead of a coffee table - a chest or a pouf with a storage system.
"Unobtrusive" light
Sometimes even a bedside lamp takes up a lot of space. That is why a pendant lamp is preferable in a small bedroom. It looks original, copes with the duties perfectly, and even saves space. An equally good option would be a wall sconce.
In addition to the listed tricks, it is advisable to zone a small bedroom. By cleverly using separation techniques, you can get a lot of free space. Sliding partitions, high racks and screens will help in this matter.
