Bedroom Niche

Challenged with an odd shaped bedroom in our 1800's antique home, we created a built-in sleeping niche with storage underneath - providing additional room for a desk and seating area. Walls were done in a neutral BM Silver Fox - with red accents and nautical accessories. Pillows were made by Jamieson Interiors.

mdiscipio The bed is full size - and it was pure luck that it fit exactly into that space ...

I'd love to know where the bed is from! Is it custom made? - I haven't seen many which have drawers that pull out from the foot instead of wide side. This set up would be great since we're planning a guest nook the width of the entire bed! »

mdiscipio We had considered having something custom made however I found this at Ikea in the exact dimension that we needed. It's called Brimnes Bed with storage. $200

macau Oh, I see! So the drawers do pull out from the wide side and NOT the foot of the bed. Won't work for us since our space is so narrow. But thank you so much for the response!

What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Lily Gahagan to Oriental Rugs Beyond the Living Room
Light walls open up this small guest bedroom, while the rug grounds the space and sets the color palette.
Embrace the space. Slanted ceilings have their charm. Here the low angle creates a nook that feels cozy and all to yourself — just try doing the same thing in a vaulted room.
added by Jen Jafarzadeh L'Italien to Great Space Saver: Bedroom Storage You Can Sleep On
This bedroom faced a challenge similar to the one our nursery/guest room space faced: It's an odd shape and there is only one real spot for a bed. The bed's built-in storage drawers freed up space for the homeowners to create a desk and seating area.
added by Amy Renea to How to Create a Nest at Home
Nests can be tiny.Notice this classic nest-like space that is confined on three sides (two walls and ceiling) with a vista through the window and across the room.

This reminds me of an apartment bedroom I'd once looked at. I like that though the walls are white, the dominant color is red. And the corner bed with drawers is adorable and practical, and sleek so it just tucks right away.
