The bedroom has lost its identity to some, now that it is no longer relegated for sleeping only. Master bedrooms have been turned into master suites, accommodating not only beds and dressers, but large scale seating areas, entertainment and technology centers, desks, and bar refrigerators. The home office is finding a spot in the bedroom, blurring the lines between work and leisure.
Chandeliers are being hung in lieu of table lamps on nightstands to create more surface space and ceiling height. Area rugs and grand artwork are incorporated into the color scheme, the same as if decorating a living room. A dedicated reading area allows you to curl up with that great book for hours.
Master suites are being given the same consideration, if not more, than the main living space. It’s not unusual to see the suite given its own “wing” of the house, with accommodating sleeping space, master bath and closet, as well as master seating. Homeowners are making this the go-to area, rather than a great room or family room that offers the same amenities.
Even if the bedroom does not offer the immense scale of a suite, it is still grand central. With technology being so portable, the bed becomes the perfect place for work and play, allowing us to lounge on a larger surface. Making the most of your bedroom becomes easier with a trip to the bedroom furniture stores at Hickory Furniture Mart. The Mart offers everything necessary to create a fabulous yet functional space.

Sleep experts and health officials shudder at the thought that we are doing more things to interrupt our sleep, but homeowners insist that it’s for convenience. After all, isn’t the recliner in the family room intended for your afternoon nap?
