Your bed is the centerpiece of your bedroom - it sets the tone for the space, impacts your comfort, and can even influence your sleep quality. While choosing the right mattress and bedding is important, where you place your bed plays an equally vital role in creating a restful sanctuary.
If you want your bedroom to feel calm and inviting, follow the command position principle:
-
Place your bed so you can see the door without being directly in line with it
-
Have a solid wall behind the headboard — perfect for showing off the craftsmanship of our handmade oak and pine frames
-
Keep your feet from pointing directly out the door for a more restful atmosphere
This creates a safe, balanced energy in the room, letting your Funky Chunky bed take centre stage.
Balance & Symmetry Matter
Our bold, chunky bed frames look their best when the space around them feels balanced:
-
Centre the headboard on the main wall
-
Give yourself space on both sides for matching Funky Chunky bedside tables
-
Leave enough clearance to move easily around the bed
Not only does this highlight the natural wood grain and artisan finish, but it also makes the room flow beautifully.
Avoid the “Sleep Stealers”
Some bed positions can disrupt your rest or hide the beauty of your furniture:
-
Don’t block windows – let natural light play on the warm tones of our wood
-
Avoid covering heating vents – protect both your comfort and your furniture’s finish
-
Steer clear of direct lines to bathrooms – noise and light can break your sleep cycle
