Home Styling 101: Creating a Minimalist Bedroom

Urban Presentations’ Senior Property Stylists Katie and Dorothy’s latest project.

Minimalism is so much more than just another way to turn your home into a space that truly feels like home. The main purpose of minimalism is to rid your spaces, and your life, of unnecessary stuff. Minimalism is the perfect way to create a blank canvas, clearing your home and mind of clutter.

Minimalist bedrooms have been trending for several years now; and for good reason! As the main place we go for rest and relaxation, our bedrooms can be a place to recharge and get away from it all. Want to create your own minimalist bedroom?

Here are our top tips to creating your own minimalist bedroom:

Decluttering your space is key in creating a minimalist bedroom. Your first step should be setting aside some time to go through cupboards, drawers and shelves, asking yourself, do I need this? Or as Marie Kondo has taught us in her book The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up, does this spark joy?

Stick to a Neutral Palette. It’s no secret that we love a neutral colour scheme! One of the many reasons we adore neutrals is for their relaxing nature. If creating a minimalist space is your goal, neutrals are about to be your best friend — and for good reason. Neutrals are as versatile as they are relaxing. For more photos and inspiration, take a glance at our gallery.

Keep it symmetrical, choosing clean lines in your furniture whenever possible. Part of minimalism is avoiding spaces that feel “busy,” which means keeping things symmetrical when possible. But does avoiding a “busy” space mean creating a boring space? Absolutely not!

Patterns and textures are a great way to keep things interesting and unique in a minimalist space. When sticking to neutrals and avoiding busy, asymmetrical lines it might feel like your options are limited when it comes to creating a space that’s interesting and unique. That’s where patterns and textures come in! Utilizing varying patterns and textures is the perfect way to make your space your own while keeping it minimal.

Remember the mantra: less is more! Need we say more? We think the photo below from Urban Presentations’ Senior Property Stylists Katie and Dorothy’s latest project says it all:
