In this blog, we delve into luxurious design concepts, upscale furnishings, and decor ideas.  Each tailored for transforming oversized bedrooms into sumptuous havens of comfort and style.

Consider your concept:

Interior design encompasses a diverse array of concepts and styles, each offering a unique aesthetic. Among the most popular interior design concepts are:

Minimalism: Characterized by clean lines, neutral color palettes, and a focus on simplicity, minimalism emphasizes decluttered spaces and a sense of tranquility. Furniture and décor are purposefully selected to serve essential functions while promoting a sense of openness and calm.
Scandinavian: Inspired by the design principles of Nordic countries, Scandinavian interiors prioritize light, airy spaces infused with warmth and coziness. Natural materials such as wood and textiles are prominent, while neutral tones and pops of pastel hues create a serene and inviting atmosphere.

Industrial: Drawing inspiration from urban lofts and warehouse conversions, industrial design features raw, unfinished elements such as exposed brick, concrete floors, and metal accents. Utilitarian furnishings and salvaged materials contribute to a rugged yet stylish aesthetic, with an emphasis on functionality and authenticity.

Bohemian: Known for its eclectic and free-spirited vibe, bohemian design celebrates creativity, color, and cultural influences from around the world. Layered textures, vibrant patterns, and an abundance of plants and textiles create a relaxed and eclectic ambiance that encourages self-expression and individuality.

Mid-Century Modern: Inspired by the design ethos of the mid-20th century, mid-century modern interiors showcase sleek lines, organic shapes, and minimalist silhouettes. Iconic furniture pieces and retro-inspired décor elements evoke a sense of nostalgia, while bold colors and geometric patterns add a playful yet sophisticated touch.

Go Big on Bedroom Furnishings:

At the heart of any luxury bedroom retreat lies the focal point: the bed. For an extra large bedroom, consider investing in an emperor bed—an oversized mattress fit for royalty. These grandiose beds offer ample space for stretching out and sinking into luxurious comfort, enveloping you in a cocoon of relaxation. Pair your emperor bed with an exquisite upholstered headboard adorned with intricate detailing or sumptuous fabrics to add a touch of glamour to the space.

In addition to the bed, incorporate a selection of lavish furnishings that enhance both style and functionality. A statement-making chaise lounge or tufted loveseat provides a cozy spot for lounging or reading, while a sleek vanity or dressing table offers a designated area for grooming and pampering. Select furnishings crafted from high-quality materials such as rich woods, polished metals, and supple leather to impart a sense of luxury and refinement to the room.

Upscale Décor Ideas:

To complete the look of your luxury bedroom retreat, adorn the space with upscale décor accents that add texture, depth, and visual interest. A larger bedroom is the perfect place for an extra large bed.  You could go Super King size or go fully decadent with an Emperor or Caesar size beds. Emperor usually range from 6ft 6in up to 7ft square with Caesar beds landing at 8ft up to 9ft square. Shopping for the right size bedding for these sizes will be a challenge on the high street but is something we can dress for you without a problem. Of course, consider dressing your emperor bed with only the most sumptuous linens, plush duvets, and decorative pillows in luxurious fabrics to make it the star attraction of the room. Layering textures and patterns creates a sense of dimension and indulgence, while incorporating accents such as crystal chandeliers, gilded mirrors, and sculptural art pieces adds a touch of glamour and sophistication.

Enhancing your Super Sized Bed:

When it comes to the bed in your extra large room there is really only one choice.   The centerpiece of any luxury bedroom retreat, the emperor bed demands attention and reverence. To enhance the overall look and feel of the bed, start by selecting high-quality cotton bedding in. Opt for crisp, Egyptian cotton or more lavish 1000 thread count sheets, in fact any with a high thread count will give unparalleled softness and comfort. Layer on a plush duvet or comforter filled with premium down or synthetic fibers for added warmth and luxury.  You can find a range of Emperor Duvets here.

Draping the bed with a luxurious bedspread or coverlet adds an extra layer of sophistication, while coordinating accent pillows and shams in complementary hues and textures tie the ensemble together beautifully. Consider embellishing the bed with decorative throws or blankets crafted from cashmere, faux fur, or velvet for an added touch of indulgence and warmth.

Transforming an extra large bedroom into a luxury retreat is a testament to the homeowner's discerning taste. By incorporating opulent any or all of the above ideas, you can create a sumptuous haven that exudes style, comfort, and sophistication—a true sanctuary for rest and relaxation. With careful attention to detail and a focus on quality craftsmanship, your luxury bedroom retreat will serve as a timeless expression of indulgence and refinement for years to come.
