Colors for a small bedroom
Colors, especially those on the walls, significantly affect the perception of the room. Due to the small size, but also because the bedroom is a place of relaxation and tranquility, opt for light and subdued colors. All shades of white will work perfectly, which optically enlarge and brighten the interior. You can also bet on delicate gray, universal beige and subtle pink or blue. If you want to also include bold colors, add them by using accessories.

Multifunctional solutions
Choose furniture that works well in several roles. A seat can also work as a stool at the dressing table and a place to store pillows inside it. Choose a bed with a drawer for bedding. Moreover, you can buy a folding bedside tables or standing mirrors with a shoe shelf.

Saving space
A great solution is also to create a built-ins around the bed. This way you don't have to waste closet space and all clothes will have their own place. Choose sliding doors, especially if there is a bathroom next to the bedroom. Also pay attention to the bed. A lower model without a large headrest will not overwhelm the space and will allow you to use the wall behind it, for example, for hanging a bookshelf.

Optical illusions
Don't overwhelm the interior with heavy forms. Opt for simple furniture with a light form. Here, minimalist, modern, Scandinavian and japandi styles will work perfectly. The interior will also seem larger if there is a lot of light in it, both daylight and that from a variety of lamps. The use of a mirror is already a well-known arrangement trick. It's great if the sunlight arriving from the window side will be reflected in it. You can also create a glass wall, which will make the bedroom seem more open and thus also larger.
