Traditional vs. Modern Bedding

You may be familiar with a concept called the “battle of the bands” but have you heard about the battle of the beds? In the world of home décor and bedding there’s been a shift and people are taking sides, debating the merits of comforters and bedspreads in the quest to make the perfect bed. Okay, that’s a bit of hyperbole but the truth is that tastes and styles are constantly changing and there is an “old school” bedroom décor look as well as a more modern look.

Traditionally the bed was made using a dust ruffle under the box spring, a fitted sheet on the mattress followed by a top sheet, a blanket and then a bedspread. The standard pillows were placed atop the folded bedspread which was then pulled over the pillows and tucked in; the mark of a well made bed was no wrinkles and pillows tucked discreetly out of sight. Perhaps on a child’s bed one might find a toss pillow or stuffed animal placed on top of the bedspread and occasionally one might find a blanket folded at the foot of the bed. This look is popular to this day but to many appears dated and out of style.

Modern bedding begins with a bed skirt to hide the box spring and bed supports; the mattress bears a fitted and flat sheet which is then covered with a comforter or quilt. The pillows are then placed on top of the made bed; this includes the standard sleeping pillows along with decorative pillows in shams. The more pillows the merrier – it’s not unusual to see six or more pillows at the head of a full or queen size bed and some of the pillows are square or even round.

Organized Regardless of Design and Purpose

Each person is created unique.  No one person is the same as another.  A person’s features are hers and hers alone.  A person may look like his or her parents but it does not mean that he or she is the parent just because they have the same features.  This is the same for redesigning and remodeling the house.  Some people want colorful houses with pink, orange, violet, and lime green as the colors for the walls in the different rooms of the house.

 

There are also the minimalists who want their houses designed as bare as possible with very minimal home decor.  This holds true in designing one’s bathroom.  Bathrooms can also have different color motifs.  However, the down side of this is that the bathroom might seem too complicated because of the visual color effect making the said room look cluttered and untidy.  A minimalist’s bathroom can be too minimal that a lot of space that could have been used for storage is wasted.  These dilemmas can be resolved by buying or having custom made bathroom cabinets where the clutter can be put away and more things can be stored.  Space can be a major concern for homeowners especially those who do not have the luxury of it in their bathrooms.

 

This is where mounted bathroom cabinets come in.  There is the option to put a cabinet above the toilet seat or it can also be above the sink.  There are many looks and styles of bathroom cabinets to choose from.  Homeowners can opt for open cabinets where they can flaunt their Victoria Secret Collection of lotion and perfumes or closed ones where they can just put their toiletries.

 

Any room can be organized regardless of its design.  A touch of the homeowner’s personality is necessary in designing any room to be able to have that personal look and feel.
