Fitted bedrooms needn’t be one-size-fits-all and bland to be functional. Here’s how to reimagine your bedroom fit outs for a stylish, clutter-free and easy-to-use haven.

It is not just about the display of possessions; it is about creating interior beauty through the juxtaposition of textures, colours and scale.

Repurposing Old Ladders into Stylish Shelving Units
Do you ever think how a beat-up old ladder can suddenly increase in value when it comes to looking for a new addition to your fitted bedroom? For me, the look of good, quality wood is a dead winner, and I couldn’t wait to get a spare ladder out of the old cupboard and garage and into my new fitted bedroom along with my bed, mattress and bedding set. You see, I love a good bit of upcycling, and I’ve been changing the old up a touch with some new ladders I reclaimed and turned into fancy new shelving units. If you’re thinking of turning some old ladders into new styles, here’s what I suggest as far as styling goes…
Perhaps leaning some old ladders up against a wall, and allowing them to form themselves into the focal point of a fitted bedroom, is just the right touch to add some rustic style to whatever you’re concocting, while enabling redundant covered space to come into full harness – after all, what better to place your own miniature retro-kitsch marvels and favourite collected books upon than these multi-gifted, individuated open shelving units, triple landmarks in terms of being ‘stylish, ecological, and achievable’; what more could an individual want? Above all, surely it is this wonderful aesthetic and ecological synergy that should convince everyone.
At this point, I decided, my climbing pole was not so much an extension for reaching up as their, material object that would connect the aesthetics of romance with the mundane practicality of DIY.
Utilizing Crates for Rustic Shelf Appeal
Import some of the outside world into your fitted bedroom: crates can help you retain a utilitarian lifestyle right into sleek contemporary bedroom furniture. Scavenged crates suggest a story of use beyond the furniture world, and can lend that lived-in character to minimalist modern living.
Open shelving with the crates works perfectly but you’re also adding a bit of decorative detail to the functionality. If you like, you can mix crates of different sizes together, or paint them different colours to add a bit to the aesthetic of a room, working against the harsh straight lines of potential fitted bedrooms. Stack them vertically, or horizontally, dependent on the configuration of your room, and it’s best to keep them open for maximum access to whatever’s inside. Pair your rustic shelving with some timeless knick-knacks of their own – think antique bric-a-brac, or storybooks poking out of the boxes.
Creating Corner Shelves for Space Efficiency
In the modern world, where apartments are becoming part of life on a daily basis, using the space effectively has become a major concern. Keeping this in mind, the solution lies in using the space effectively and effectively. This can be only possible if it utilises the dead space into a beautiful corner shelf attached to the Indian corner. These not only bring the beauty to dead space but are also handy aids in keeping our rooms neat and tidy.
If your space corner shelves are one of your main concerns when it comes o fit, not o for you a wardrobe, but the right amount of storage, you will discover that not only will they solve all the storage problems but also they will make you fitted bedroom looking neat and tidy. Books you would like to have with you yet to display but not ruin your sight, pictures, targets special for you, collectibles or your dozens of indoor plants you just could not bare to stay away from, but That you would like to bring in your room now? Here they are: visible yet not in your way, not messing the whole place but letting you have the freedom to believe your room is full, yet tidy and little organized. Thanks to the endless possibilities today you can have yours made to measure, to perfectly fit in the atmosphere of your room endow you with that feeling of neatness, tidyness and that little equilibrium you may need in arranging your space.
DIY Picture Ledge: The Perfect Shelf for Displaying Artworks
Until DIY Picture Ledge, no one has made this key expression of the giant blank canvas which in fitted bedrooms is actually just a wardrobe, to such a level of fashion and customisation. It’s not only that Picture Ledge is a shelf of course. If it were, it would just be art for art’s sake. It’s that Picture Ledge is a flying winged picture gallery, permanently parked wherever you choose to put it, which is to say providing an essential expressive channel in which can sit your most loved photographic tableaux, kitsch bric-a-brac and poured-over artwork with love.
Because it is a slim, clean-lined picture ledge, rather than the individual pictures, you can swap the artwork at will – a narrative, if you like, that you can edit, or move, or transform, or renew according to how you feel, or whether it’s the spring or summer or fall. The stuff in here will make your fitted bedroom look less fitted, but it is also a personality-loaded creative shrine – a happenstance of stuff that will also provoke interesting conversation when you let friends investigate the shrine – your little living-room temple. A homemade dressed-up picture ledge is storage that is nice to look at, but also nice to treasure – as good to sink into the comfortable homely feel as any kitsch stag head.
Upcycling Old Drawers into Unique Wall Shelves
Repurposing charity shop castoffs into new interior pieces is not only great for the environment, but, if you’re up to date with interior design, it also makes your fitted bedroom uniquely yours. What better example of subtle interior details that can be turned on their head than the old chest of drawers. The principle is that, once painted and fitted with brackets (which can be found in any discarded item!), they offer ever more options for fitted bedroom shelving, wall-mounted or on the doors.
If given the right treatment, parts of a mongrel great dresser or desk, previously ugly because of their neglect and possibly timeworn peeling, can be made as signature pieces. Hang them on your walls as bohemian cloaks, bulging on all sides with books or framed treasures or little gewgaws and suddenly any slick design will take on some whimsy, a bit of character and perhaps – like the smallest of Shaker wonders – create yet more storage space. A kind of romance to taking ‘retro’ to ‘revolution’, heightened in the quirky whimsy that increases the looks of your fitted bedroom.
