Bedroom Design
When decorating your bedroom, you want it to reflect your style, and to be as comfortable as possible. The design variations may vary from your bedroom's size and shape, the amount of the sunlight it gets, and the additional functions you want your bedroom to have.
The size of your bedroom.
A bedroom furniture set for a small bedroom will usually include a bed, nightstands, a dresser and a chest. The bigger the size of the room is, the more additional furniture pieces can be added. If you have extra space in your bedroom, you can add another drawer chest, a couch, a coffee table, or even a table with chairs. But even if you have a large bedroom and plenty of space, try to emphasize the main use of the room, make it comfortable for you to get a good rest at night, or during the day.
The amount of the sunlight in your bedroom.
The light doesn't really affect the style of your bedroom, but the "feel" that your bedroom has.To keep a dark room lighter you can paint the walls in lighter colors, and choose a lighter furniture. Light colors also make the areas look bigger. Add more light colors to your bedroom to make it seem lighter and larger.
The additional functions of your bedroom.
You can use you bedroom not only as a place where you sleep. A bedroom could also be an office, a TV room, a mini-library, a breakfast area, etc. If the space of your bedroom allows you to use it during the day to read, work, watch TV, or do anything else, try to design your bedroom accordingly. When adding extra features to your bedroom, keep in mind, that it is still a bedroom, and you want it to stay convenient and comfortable for a good night sleep.
Bedroom is the place where you day starts, and where it ends. Make it comfortable and unique with beautiful furniture sets by Good Wood Furniture. Interior designers at Good Wood Furniture store will help you pick the perfect bedroom set, or any other furniture piece for your home or office.

Custom Furniture
The term "custom furniture" referring to custom made furniture is relatively recent. For hundreds of years all the furniture made in the world was custom, and even though there were matching pieces, every one was still one of a kind.
With the invention of machines, the furniture was easier to make, and the factories began producing hundreds of tables, chairs, beds, and all the other furniture pieces. The furniture was now cheaper, because of the automated process , and all tables and chairs from the factory were identical.
Nowadays it is easy to buy furniture of any kind and style, with hundreds of options to match the theme of your home of office. Browse the furniture stores to find matching tables and chairs, bedroom sets, and anything else to complete your interior design.
However, it is getting more popular to order custom made furniture. The most popular choices are the custom wall systems and storage solutions for homes and offices. When you have a one-of-a-kind home or office space, you want a custom furniture piece to make it unique and comfortable.

Green Your Bedroom for a Better Night's Rest
Sometimes, we just can't avoid breathing in things that could make us sick. We walk outside to meet a toxic swirling combination of car exhaust and other chemically-based fumes that may emit from lighter fluids, factories and even the everyday objects around us. It's true that the clothes we wear, the food we eat, and utensils we use at lunch and dinner may contain some kind of treatment that isn't necessarily good for us, but unless you want to live in a bubble or move off the grid into the woods and forage, how else can you survive naturally?
If one should start anywhere to enjoy a more natural, eco-friendly experience, it's the bedroom. This is your sanctum, a place where you come to wind down and recharge at the end of every busy day. It is important, since your body requires deep sleep to rejuvenate energy, to make sure you have few to no interruptions at night, and certainly nothing in your personal space that could cause you to get sick. When you prepare to green-up your bedroom for a peaceful existence, bear in mind that every element of living space - not just the bed - comes into play.
Draperies
As with most textiles, heavy drapes will come treated with chemicals designed to preserve the durability of the fabric. When these hang over your windows to block incoming lamplight, you may think you are helping set a sleeping mood, but the chemicals that remain stay with you. For a healthier, greener window treatment, look for curtains made of natural, untreated fibers like organic cotton, hemp or bamboo, or consider unpainted wooden blinds or shutters.
Greenery
A good way to keep healthy circulation in your room is to add a plant or two to your sleeping space. Live plants help with filtering your home air naturally, and even absorb some chemicals and reduce risks. Ask your local nursery about good options for keeping in your bedroom.
Bedding
A natural wood frame, a latex mattress topped with organic fiber sheets, and a natural pillow of components designed to help your head support (buckwheat, latex, etc) are essential in the pursuit of a natural night's sleep. Bear in mind if you have considered a fancier sleep system like memory foam, the mattresses may still have chemical treatments. It's best to consult with a green home furnishings company so you know what you're getting is the real deal.
Put everything together your bedroom for a relaxing, renewing experience. When you green your bedroom, a good night's sleep comes naturally.
