Large and spacious bedrooms might be luxurious but small bedrooms can cosily and succinctly provide us with all of the comforts that we need. This huge collection of 51 small bedroom design ideas comes with tips and stylish accessories to help you design yours. We’ll gather exciting inspiration for small sleep spaces from open plan interiors divided by split level floors and graceful portieres. Inventive studio apartment layouts show off some glass wall bedrooms, compact sleeping cubes, and lofted bed solutions. We’ll also discover a plethora of ideas for bespoke bed structures that expertly navigate the confines of space and provide useful storage spaces to boot.
Choose multipurpose bed bases. In small spaces, furniture should ideally work double duty. This bespoke bed base includes a staircase that gives rise to a row of wall mounted units. There are also deep drawers inside the base, headboard and footboard to maximise limited storage opportunities.

The studio sleep cube. When faced with the zoning challenges that an open concept studio space presents, a custom-built cube provides a cosy and practical solution.
Split level floors successfully communicate zoning too. This studio bedroom space is raised onto a luxurious stone slab to establish a clear divide in function from an adjacent lounge area.
Glass wall bedrooms supply sleep spaces with a comfortingly protective barrier, whilst still benefiting from natural light-share.
Glass wall rooms also allow the line of sight to pass through unobstructed, which makes the whole apartment feel larger.
Partitions can make or break a small layout. Use partial partition walls to visually mark the change in function without fully cutting off the floor area.
The Murphy bed. When a small room has to function as several different things, such as a work space or a lounge, a fold-away Murphy bed makes the ultimate space-saving solution.
Floating desks and vanities. When floor space is restricted, desks and dressing tables are best raised off the floor to avoid the clutter and tripping hazard of support legs. Better yet, combine both functions into one piece with a long work surface and a wall mirror.
Internally situated small bedrooms. This bedroom has no windows or natural light sources of its own and so borrows light from sliding glass doors on each side. Recessed perimeter lights help to brighten the overall look.
Shared TV viewing. So, you have a small studio apartment but look on the bright side, you only have to buy one TV! Aligning the bed behind the sofa gives both an optimum viewing angle. A simple portiere can be drawn around the bed when it’s time to rest.
A shallow attic space can be turned into a snug bedroom for a book lover with a few custom-cut wall shelves and a simple floor bed.
Pack and stack. Long, narrow homes require creative planning with modules and interlocking blocks. A bedroom nook can be lofted above storage space or even into void headspace above a bathtub or toilet in a neighbouring bathroom.
This lofted bed hovers above a stylish home workspace. Skylights give the homeowner a view of the stars at night and a bright wakeup call in the morning.
Fully utilise all nooks and alcoves. This small nook is just large enough to hold a double bed. However, by raising the bedstead up onto a mid-level platform, there becomes a huge storage space underneath. The elevated floor also facilitates access to a high recess, ideal for clothes storage, which would otherwise have been wasted.
Now you see it, now you don’t. This TV wall moves on an ingenious track system that slides closed in front of a Murphy bed, allowing the homeowner to enjoy a much larger living room or a divided layout.
Room for a friend. This small space accommodates two sleepers with basic, built-in bed bases and ample storage. A hammock outside makes room for one more!
Framed to perfection. A frame of book shelves, decorative nooks and a single wardrobe makes an attractive and practical containment unit for this small bedroom.
Fully-fitted. Sleek lines improve the appearance of a small bedroom. Fully fitted furniture can be fashioned to flow as one sleek piece around the room, like this headboard, bedside unit, window seat and modern desk combo.
Build a bed block. Wall-to-wall and fully stocked with storage, this wooden bed block is fully bespoke to the space. During the day, scatter cushions make the large bed into a comfy hangout spot. Two modern wall sconces serve the head of the bed with practical reading light.
Concealed storage and uplifting colour. Deep drawers serve as a concealed wardrobe in the base of this bespoke bed design. Brightly coloured cushions and throws make the small room appear cheerful and warm in the midst of a grey city panorama.
Tear up the rule book. Your home layout can be anything you want it to be. This floor bed butts up against a floor sofa to create a low-level, low-impact arrangement.
Blend with the backdrop. The bedroom goes almost undetected in this long layout, thanks to a built-in floor bed design that tidily frames the window.
Cubed and concealed. Solid wooden doors can be closed around this sleep cube to fully conceal it from the rest of the studio space during the day or when visitors are expected.
With a bedroom cube this pretty, you might not want to tuck it away.
Very small bedrooms can sometimes feel dingy and claustrophobic. A light colour scheme of fresh white and pastel accents will go a long way in producing a pleasant airy atmosphere. Linear wall lights cut a simple source of illumination.
Play with spatial perception. Geometric paint effects mislead the eye to produce space bending results.
Two-tone wall treatments produce successful space altering outcomes too.
Light permeable room dividers. Open wooden slats allow light to be shared through this thin room divider, both from the window and from a chic bedroom chandelier.
Looking for wall decor inspiration? You’ll never find yourself running late when getting dressed in the mornings with a large wall clock like this elegant modern piece.
In contradiction to small bedroom constraints, oversized headboard panelling can actually increase the sense of space.
In small bedrooms, wall art with big subjects can open the mind.
Another art idea that instils a sense of “space”.
Small bedrooms that are situated under the eaves may leave some people feeling a little closed in. Combat the effects of a low roofline with a sloping skylight.
Create contrast with opposing wall colours. The contradiction will build added dimension.
Boho style decor makes small spaces into cosy, colourful, and creative dens.
Embrace oddly shaped interiors with custom-fit closets.
Camping at home. This twin bedroom niche has a fun tent-like appearance, which ties in beautifully with its woodland view.
Communicate dual purpose with contrasting wall textures, no matter how small. The reading nook in this clean white bedroom is defined with a narrow frame of exposed brickwork, which completely transforms the aesthetic.
Another industrial inspired mini makeover, this time with a half-height room divider to achieve subtle separation from a lounge area.
Disrupt small spaces with a slice of unexpected colour.
Rise to the occasion. This bed base is designed with a rise on one side to encase a radiator and to create an inviting window seat.
Step inside. A solid wood chamber fashions a room within a room.
Double-sided dividers. This small interior is sliced by a double-sided bookcase design that forms the wall of a narrow bedroom. Behind the partition, a split level floor forms seating for a home workspace and an elevated bed base. More images here.
This 18 square meter living space features an L-shaped kitchen and desk combo to make a single fluid line around the perimeter. The white and black-framed bed design cohesively coordinates with wall cubbies that store the kitchen and office supplies.
Even though this headboard is inches from the sofa, the bedroom feels entirely separate thanks to a slatted screen and a raised floor. Window shutters smartly mirror the lightweight partition.
Is it a headboard or a dining bar? It’s both, and it provides great views of the TV.
Room width may be tight, but elegant bedroom pendant lights and eye-catching wall art provide a wealth of style.
Make slimline statements. A basic black electrical wire draws interest up and over this headboard area without eating up any precious space.

While these two distinctive home interiors differ in scale and colour palette, they find common ground in sleek modern decor, industrial accent walls, and open concept bedroom designs. The first of our two featured home designs is a soothing pale grey interior with rugged exposed brickwork and a slatted wall bedroom design directly off the living room. In colourful contrast, our second featured home interior comes alive with teal and bright yellow accent pieces that warm and uplift cool concrete industrial feature walls. A glass wall bedroom design opens up on two sides to fully meld it with the neighbouring lounge and kitchen diner spaces.
Located in Kyiv, Ukraine, this 83 square metre apartment features an open plan lounge, kitchen diner combo. The soft grey modern sofa melds tranquilly with colour matched living room walls.
A slatted wall clearly divides the bedroom from the main living space without obstructing its view altogether. The open concept increases the sense of space and light in the home, and achieves an easy flow. A rugged brick feature wall builds an aged, industrial effect across one side of the room, drawing focus to the TV.
The dark and sculptural lamp duo by the end of the sofa are Muffins floor lamps by Dan Yeffet for Brokis.
A light grey round rug almost disappears against the smooth grey microcement floor.
An arrangement of two small side tables and a rustic coffee table lay down solid black accents across the sea of grey.
A wide kitchen island draws across the open plan living room, with a dining table extension taking advantage of natural light by the window.
The dining table extension can be retracted over the sink in the kitchen island when not in use. This shift brings prep surface area close to the hob and clears floor space when the kitchen diner is not in use. A push down faucet descends under the cover.
A lengthy floor lamp stretches across the multifunctional island countertop.
A smaller version of the floor lamp draws the same linear aesthetic across the lounge area.
Open kitchen shelving displays organised rows of flatware, wine glasses and serving bowls.
Inside the master bedroom, a floor bed design incorporates an upholstered bedside unit. On the other side, a small side table is teamed with the Sampei floor lamp designed by Davide Groppi and Enzo Calabrese.
The industrial vibe is dominant inside the bathroom. The rugged, white-washed brick wall treatment we originally encountered in the living room now creates a feature wall behind the tub. Microcement floods the floor in here too, creating smooth contrast with the aged brickwork.
An illuminated bathroom mirror emits a fresh white glow onto the vertical tile behind the vanity. Black grout accentuates the precise tilework.
A slender floor lamp leans elegantly toward the bathtub, providing focussed reading light for long soaks.
Black fixtures complement the unique black marble bathtub.
The modern bathroom fixtures and Sampei floor lamp create sleek contrast with the rough brickwork.
Inside the kids’ room, an upholstered kids’ bed provides a soft landing for pillow fights.
Modern wood effect wall panelling builds a cosy wraparound with hidden storage spaces.
A Baymax plush toy leans up against a built-in bookcase, which is given contrast with black shelves & backing material.
A kid’s study area occupies the industrial style wall. A floating desk cuts cleanly across the brickwork.
This 57 square metre home in Moscow, Russia, is styled with raw concrete feature walls and colourful accents.
A round coffee table smoothly fills in the centre of the small space, without any sharp corners to knock into.
A short, central wall has been installed to accommodate the TV set and a floating tv stand. The TV wall’s small stature only partially obscures the glass wall bedroom design, enabling plentiful light share.
The plush grey area rug echoes the tone and shading of the living room’s concrete feature wall.
Following the L-shaped living room layout around the corner of the glass wall bedroom design, we come to the kitchen diner.
Directional kitchen pendant lights descend on a walnut dining bar, which achieves a floating effect on a transparent support leg.
Deep teal paintwork darkens the home entryway, whilst a small pouf provides a cheerful pop of bright yellow.
Floor-to-ceiling frameless mirrors climb behind the pouf and beside the entry door, increasing the sense of space in the small foyer.
A teal headboard wall continues the cohesive colour palette inside the bedroom. A grey upholstered platform bed carries the soothing grey element.
An extended headboard design fills the width of the room, and provides a mount for a floating bedroom vanity table.
The teal accent continues over the ceiling, fashioning a darkened, cosy cocoon. The glass walls of the bedroom open on two sides to create one square open living space.
A bright yellow vanity stool pulls up to the wall mounted makeup table. Industrial style pendant lights fall in front of the round mirror.
A walk-in wardrobe stands just off the home entryway, with space to stow away some cleaning equipment.
Yellow accents bring mellow warmth to the bathroom through a statement vanity unit and stunning, patterned wall tiles.
Wood effect wall tiles clad the wet wall.
A double workspace has been installed at one side of the lounge, alongside office storage units and a custom-built floor-to-ceiling bookcase. See more ideas for double seat workspaces.
