When decorating a bedroom in a modern private house, a style that more closely resembles an abandoned room is increasingly used. The main subject of the bedroom’s interior is the loft-style bed, which can occupy the entire space or be compactly located in the natural recesses of the room.

The characteristic nuances of style

Loft - a special style in the interior, which is simple, practical and minimal. He was born in America during the financial crisis, when the free attics of closed enterprises began to be occupied by poor creative intellectuals with a great flight of imagination. They had everything in the attics that could be used as furniture. As a result, the interior turned out more reminiscent of a cluttered corner with rough walls.

There are a number of features by which you can accurately determine the loft:

1. The use of only natural materials (wood, brick, glass, stone, metal);
2. Minimalism and multi-level placement of furniture;
3. Simplicity in design and decoration. For example, a mattress can be stacked on pallets, inside of which many details can be placed;
4. Convenience and maximum comfort. No matter how the bed is positioned, it is important that the mattress is comfortable, the mat is soft, and the room is adequately lit.

When decorating a loft room, the designer can move away from the canons and add one or two elements that do not correspond to the chosen idea. The main thing is that the object is combined in a color palette. When placing furniture, you should not try to hide the pipes and ceilings - they acquire a special chic in a non-standard interior and become part of the idea.

Types of construction

Depending on the needs, the loft bed is selected single or double. Its size varies from 0.8 m to 1 m - for a single place and in the range of 1.40-1.60 m - for a double.

At the location of the berth can be located:

• In the niche of the wall, either be hidden with the help of a screen or false panels;
• On a small hill. In this case, a good option is to build a podium from metal structures, wooden arrays or pallets;
• In the center of the room, acting as the main piece of furniture;
• Under the ceiling on a lift;
• In the attic. In this case, the berth is located on the second tier, which can be reached by stairs.

Frame designs can be different:

1. The classic version of minimalism is a wooden bed with legs;
2. Two-tier - a decent option for a children's room. On the first tier there is usually a desktop or a wardrobe;
3. In the form of a sofa. This option is used with limited space or when combining the kitchen and bedroom. Loft sofa bed is made similar to a bed;
4. Imitation platform.For such a bed, a frame is made of wood or metal. The design can remain open or draped with fur, leather, fabric;
5. The mobile frame can be made independently using pallets and castors for furniture. This option is convenient for cleaning or with frequent rearrangement;
6. The floating structure is suspended from the ceiling using ropes. Such a bedroom must be very carefully filled with other pieces of furniture so that they emphasize the original design;
7. Frame with built-in drawers, called a cabinet. This model saves free space in the room and allows you to place many necessary things, hiding them from the eyes of others;
8. The effect of a hovering bed is created using a design where the legs are located closer to the center, due to which they are not visible;
9. There are also retractable structures mounted on casters under the main berth. Such models are used as an extra bed and are put forward as needed.

The original structures made of timber seem sloppy, but they need to be made in compliance with all technical safety requirements.

Do not forget about comfortable sleep. When choosing non-standard models of bed frames, it is important to take care of a high-quality high mattress. It should be orthopedic and smooth out some irregularities of the rails.

Colors and Appearance

To achieve maximum approximation to the style, you need to pay attention to the selection of colors and the quality of materials used to create the interior. The original style is characterized by gray, beige, brown and other natural shades. They will maximize the simplicity and comfort of the room. With such shades it is easy to combine various home decoration.

One of the interesting loft bedroom interior items is the canopy. However, dense coarse weave fabrics or lightweight plain textiles are used for it. On the bed itself, it is better to put a blanket or a dressed-up animal skin if there is a tree in the interior. Skins are also used for bedside rugs. Equally important is the selection of textiles for a berth. When designing a bedroom, it is important to adhere to several rules:

1. Soft suede is only suitable for decoration of decorative pillows and bedspreads;
2. For bedding, natural fabrics are considered an ideal option: linen, cotton in soothing colors without patterns and ornaments;
3. Basic colors for the bed: white, gray, beige, brown.

Shiny fabrics and vibrant saturated shades are not compatible with the loft style.

Bed for children and teenagers

If the loft style was chosen for the design of the children's room, you must first talk with the child to find out how comfortable such an original atmosphere will be for him. The loft bed can be white, and the rug or decorative pillows can be bright colors. Usually used for contrast:

• Red;
• Green;
• Blue;
• Brick.

For little princesses, you can combine gray with a light pink tint. Looks good and the combination of white with calm herbal. Quite often, a two-level bed is used in this style. This allows you to distinguish between zones of games, study and rest, as well as save space in a cramped room.

Original ideas

The interior of the loft makes it possible to embody the imagination of the designer. Rough concrete surfaces, welded and forged elements, unusual decorative elements (for example, an old basin in the form of a flowerpot) can be present in the most unexpected combinations. Beds can differ in a variety of headboards. It can be a standard classic or unique design developments:

1. If the bed is made in the form of a podium, the head of the bed can be a regular piece of wooden board. It can be left in its original form or varnished.The second option will be more accurate, and untreated wood will emphasize the naturalness and environmental friendliness of the interior;
2. The head of the loft bed can be made of wooden slats, knocked down in a canvas or in the form of a fence (with gaps). To achieve harmony in style, from the racks used to make the head, you can build other interior items (for example, photo frames);
3. Another option for a headboard could be an ordinary brick wall, which will become a clear sign of style;
4. If the bed is metal, the headboard is also better made from metal tubes. The metal elements of the bed can be “aged” and look more like old models;
5. The headboard in the form of bookshelves looks original. Such a model will be as functional as possible, since various trifles can be stored inside it.

The metal bed should not be too decorated with decoration elements. The frame is better to choose the simplest, and the headboard should differ in strict forms.

In the design of the bedroom, the furniture looks artificially aged. If it is not possible to purchase it, then anyone can make a bed in the loft style with their own hands, which would mimic an antique interior item. To do this, you can take old wooden boards, boxes, pallets. To emphasize the peculiarity of the furniture, various inscriptions resembling markings on drawers are applied to the legs and headboard.

In the presence of imagination and courage, wooden boxes, stumps, old stairs and even old car tires will help to design a sleeping place in an original way. The main thing is not to forget about the main signs of style and look at the familiar things outside the box.
