Let's try to figure out how to fit a large and round bed into the interior of a modern bedroom.

"Tiny Size"
In old houses there are rooms that are truly microscopic in size. Or the residents themselves make a two-room apartment out of a one-room apartment, leaving a small nook for a bedroom. Usually there is only a bed and a small dressing table. It is almost impossible to decorate such a room, and if you don’t play with the decoration, there is a high risk of visually reducing the space even more. But there is nothing to lose - the bed can be anything you want, without regard to the rest of the furniture and accessories.
To make a small bedroom original, just add a round bed. You can create an ironic interior by choosing a classic lush bed, but it is better to stay true to minimalism and, saving space, choose the simplest round model without a podium. If you really want additional decor, choose a small contrasting headboard and colorful pillows for it.
A diverse range of round beds
Round beds have a fairly wide range of models. A variety of characteristics will help you create your own individual bedroom interior:
- a wide range of colors for furniture finishing;
- wide range of models;
- design features;
- variety of mechanisms.
Round beds are divided into two main types:
- models with a round mattress;
- models with a rectangular mattress.
The second option for beds is usually preferred by those people who want to have round furniture, but doubt its comfort.
This classification is carried out according to the shape of the bed. There are beds with and without a headboard. The stores offer beds with armrests. This greatly increases convenience and comfort while sleeping. According to the variety of headboards, round beds are:
- round;
- straight;
- corner.
As for size, furniture is selected from the following features:
- If a round bed is intended for a children's room, then in this case the diameter should be no more than two meters.
- If a bed is chosen for a married couple, then its diameter must be at least 2.5 meters. Almost all round beds are bulky. If you want to avoid this effect, then you should choose models without built-in drawers. In addition, you can create the effect of floating in the air. This can be achieved using lighting.
If the dimensions of the furniture do not scare you, then you should definitely consider models with linen drawers. You can store clothes, pillows, blankets and blankets in them. For this, various opening systems are used:
- sliding doors;
- roll-out boxes;
- drawers.
Parameters and equipment: what to look for
There are several characteristics that are evaluated when choosing a round stock. First of all, pay attention to the following qualities:
- Size . A round bed, the size of which is less than two meters in diameter, is considered a children's (teenage) bed. The model with a diameter of about two meters corresponds in area to a standard single bed. If you are looking for an option for two, focus on models from 2.5 m.

Advantages and disadvantages
The unusual shape of the bed gives the interior a special character. But the shocking appearance is not the only advantage of this piece of furniture. Let's look at its other advantages:
- Dimensions . A round stock is typically much larger in size than the standard rectangular stock. This bed will be comfortable for people of any height. Depending on the diameter, the bed can accommodate several people. This need may arise if relatives come to visit or parents are used to sleeping with the child. And even for one person this option will be as comfortable as possible, because you can sleep on it, positioned in any direction.
- Mood . A round bed is associated with a cozy “nest”. It creates an atmosphere of romance and harmony in the room.
- Style . Even if the bedroom is a purely intimate place and guests do not enter it, the owners themselves will be pleased to be in a stylishly furnished room. And if this is a studio apartment, then there is no doubt that your friends will appreciate the originality of the decor.
- Zoning . The round-shaped sleeping area attracts attention, becoming the central element of the room. In studio apartments, this nuance is especially important for proper zoning of the room.
- Safety . The absence of sharp corners allows us to consider this bed model the most successful for a child, because it eliminates the risk of impacts and damage. And even for adult beds, this quality can be important, because children often run into the parent’s bedroom.
However, this type of furniture also has disadvantages that are important to consider when choosing the shape of the bed:
- Size . Large dimensions can be a disadvantage under certain circumstances. This bed is not suitable for a miniature bedroom. In a small space, the sleeping place will seem unnaturally large and bulky, and moving around the room will become very inconvenient.
- Difficulties in selecting accompanying elements . Anyone with a round bed will have to order a special mattress for it. After all, most manufacturers produce only ordinary rectangular mattresses. Difficulties may also arise with the purchase of bed linen and bedspreads.
- Difficulties of addiction . Despite the attractiveness of rounded shapes, it is psychologically difficult for some people to immediately readjust and calmly fall asleep on such a bed. It may take weeks to get used to.
- Price. Round models are usually in a higher price segment than regular beds.
