9 Gorgeous Apartment Bedrooms That Are Fit for Bungalows
These bedrooms keep the hectic pace of city life at bay and seem to be designed for leisure, comfort and luxe living
While the living room is the star attraction of your home, the bedroom is your cocoon. So, naturally, along with being a comfort zone, your bedroom also needs to be the place you love to be in. Don’t worry, even if you live in an apartment you can have a bedroom that gives off the feel of belonging to an expansive home. All you need is to create a sense of space and pick furniture and décor elements that are focussed on providing comfort but with oodles of style. Here we list nine bedrooms that make such grand statements that they could easily belong to bungalows. Get inspired.
2. Retro and bright
Powder-blue walls and a variety of furniture pieces – this spacious bedroom reflects a retro style. Here, eclectic pieces fit together to somehow give a cohesive, vibrant look. The low bed and the side tables are so 1970s, as are the study table, chair and floor lamp. The mustard-yellow sofa is the statement piece of the room. Its colour and curves play against the angles of the wooden study table. All the colours in the room are balanced by the natural light filtering in through the white-curtained floor-to-ceiling windows that line the length of the room.

3. Quiet elegance
The use of muted colour tones and rich finishes impart elegance to this bedroom by Essentia Environments. The room reflects an intimate ambience, heightened by the brown colour palette. Accent lights have been placed strategically to enhance the mood. For me, the silver carpet with a dual surface – a scattering of shiny and fluffy bits – is the most interesting piece as it brings a textural element to the room.

4. Small is beautiful
A not-so-huge bedroom of a duplex apartment by Architecture BRIO shows how to make the most of the available space. See how the two angled corners of the room have been transformed into display and storage units by installing custom-made wooden racks. Even though the room accommodates many pieces of furniture within its limited size, there is a certain sense of spaciousness because of the light colour scheme. This well-put-together room could totally be a part of a bungalow.

5. Deceptive simplicity
An elevated wooden platform creates a double-layered flooring in this room and also works as the base for the bed. Simple and small things come together to create the character of this room – the cloth lamp, the artwork in charcoal colour. The feature that makes most impact is the accent lighting underneath the edge of the wooden platform and the stair. Any bedroom in a bungalow can take inspiration from this unique arrangement.

6. Vibrant balance
In this bedroom by Fadd Studio, see how red has been used repeatedly to balance out the black, be it through the furnishings, the lights, the accessories or the stained-glass window. The kilim-print chest of drawers and the wall hanging work well with the whole set-up, as they add depth with their patterns. The use of mirrors on the wardrobe doors builds an illusion of spaciousness and prevents the room from looking crowded.

7. Restful grace
This predominantly white bedroom by Shalini George Interiors gets a sophisticated sheen thanks to the use of soft hues. The abundance of white and access to natural light provides a spacious feel to this room. I like its versatility; with the walls and the furniture pieces kept neutral, all you need is to change the soft furnishings to give a new look to this room anytime you wish.

8. Airy and spacious
Part of an open-plan apartment, another design by Architecture BRIO, its airiness and openness is the defining character of this bedroom. The use of edgy, contemporary furniture further enhances the spacious feel – even foldable doors help take up minimal space. Only key pieces have been brought in and enough room left for empty spaces.

9. Delicate fusion
The accent wall covered in frames of vintage design is the showstopper of this bedroom by Moriq Interiors but there is another innovative aspect – the arrangement and choice of furniture. Instead of creating a seating space on the side of the room, the benches with cushion seats line up the two sides of the bed. A vintage backdrop to a modern bed – the room displays a fusion style in a rather subtle manner. Don’t miss the layered lighting created by the natural ambient light and the recessed lights focusing on the accent wall.

This bedroom by Moriq Interiors takes a rather unconventional route, be it in the furniture choices or their arrangement. I love the concept of a bed that’s hanging from the ceiling. This creative bed sets the edgy tone of this space, heightened by the monochrome wallpaper printed with skyscrapers. Continuing with the out-of-box design style, the side tables are unique too, with drawers apparently carelessly stacked on top of each other. The repurposed wood table with wheels and the jute rug bring an element of rustic but industrial style.
