Hi Michael - One of the best bedroom designs I've seen. Could you please advise the size of the back board sections?
We are currently redesigning and I would like to do something similar.
Regards,
Michael.

Do the wall panels provide sound insulation ? - I am trying to make my master bedroom more sound proof. Would adding panels like these or attaching a rug to the wall be helpful ? Do you know anyone in Chicago who offers residential sound proofing services ? »
Michael Abrams Limited I would have to imagine these fabric panels offer some sound proofing although I cannot tell you how much. There are experts in the industry and I would suggest a internet search.
Love this room but design challenged. - Michael, I live in a Chicago condo. Wondering whether to hire a designer to decorate/remodel my master bedroom because I am design challenged. Can you share the approximate budget one must have to hire a designer and achieve a look like this from scratch ? »
HOW TO ACHIEVE THIS LOOK? - funny how every room i seem to like is done by Michael Abrams. how do you achieve the dark, modern, sexy look to your rooms. i really love your work. »
Michael Abrams Limited Thanks so much - not sure if there is an answer other than I keep things tailored, clean and masculine. I love natural materials and avoid sparkle or shine. I try to create rooms that are timeless.
Plz tell me that what is the name of this fabric fitted at back of bed n please also tell me that Clur of - Plz tell me that what is the name of this fabric fitted at back of bed n please also tell me that Colour of 4 wals and ceiling & how many ceiling bulbs r there in this room »
Kimberly Buswell How did you secure the panels? Did you secure them with the nail gun with the foam and then wrap them? I'm having a hard time understanding the process. Thanks!
Michael Abrams Limited These upholstered panels are butted up to each other with no space. You are seeing a slight shadow line from the fabric wrapping the panel. Good luck on your project.
Michael Abrams Limited A lot would depend on natural and supplemental lighting. I do feel Metropolitan would make a room feel smaller if the light sources are good.
susandi2001 Michael i love the colors ! I am a huge fan of Gray shades ! Can you tell me the name of that color ? Or can you give me a suggestion of an Amazing Dark bold Gray color for my master bedroom ? I would like to paint ceilling and walls in gray not necessary same shade.....................thank's !!!
Michael Abrams Limited These are fabric wrapped panels (fabric is from Donghia). The panels are Masonite with upholstery batting and wrapped in fabric. They are adhered to the wall via a nail gun. Good luck and send me a photo of your finished work.
How much space for walk room next to bed? - Our new bedroom is going to be set up similarly. what is the ideal amount of space for a walk way next to the bed if your bathroom door entrance is in the corner like this one? I love this room! »
Michael Abrams Limited Wendy - They are upholstered panels on masonite and applied with a nail gun. It gives a lot bang for a reasonable cost. Good luck!
dimensions of the panels compared quote already given - As you have already heard and I'll say it again, it is a stunning room. I understand you have repeated yourself several times so hopefully this isn't a repeat more of a qualification. It was mentioned early the panel sizes are 15x30 and the space was approxiamately 8X10. If that is a King size bed (give a little extra for frame) give a little more for space between the bed and endtables... that leaves the endtables almost 50 inches and they don't look that big. The dimensions aren't adding up for me, can you tell me if the panels are in fact 15x30, is it a king size bed and how wide are the nightstands?.....sorry so long »
Rae Williams I think we might also have a little bit of distortion going on from the wide angle lense it would take to get this whole room in the shoot, which would make things look longer.
amiris12000 If you get no responses, an idea is to have the mirror custom cut at a glass shop to the dimensions you want and have it delivered to a frame shop where they can frame it. I had a very large mirror custom made that way for the wall on my staircase and the frame shop actually came to my house with it and mounted it on the studs of the wall ! I couldnt have done it myself and because they provided that service, I went ahead and made it.
it is not metropolitan. what is the name of the color???? - i checked the metropolitan color for BM, it is different than this room

Inspiration Room - I absolutely love everything about this room, it is now my inspiration "photo" for my master bedroom in my new home. Thank you for sharing your talent! »
Angela Ward Myself as well! inspiration room for my master bedroom. I just think I would get bored with the taupe panels so I am trying to come up with another color for them, charcoal maybe, or would that be too much gray? What other neutral colors would go well with this design? Wow Michael, so many people are using your design as their inspiration room, they say imitation is the highest form of flattery. If that is true are you feeling over the moon and immensely flattered?
Bulkhead size - This bedroom is sublime in terms of design, colour, ambient etc. just was wondering what is the approx size of the central bulkhead relative to the size of the room. »
What material was used for the upholstered wall? - Hi! Your designs are wonderful! I was just wondering what material was used for the upholstered panels on the wall! Thank you so much! »
Where did you get the wall setting from behide the bed? - Absolutely stunning, Ive been looking for one for some time now, is it custom made or can iI order it. »
Michael Abrams Limited These upholstered wall panels are custom made. Any good upholster should be able to replicate this design. They are made of plywood with foam batting and upholstered in a fabric. They can mounted to the wall with a nail gun or z-clips. Good luck!
Oh gosh simply fabulous. - Been trying for some time to figure out best way to do upholstered panels on walls. What is a Z clip and where are they usually found? »
Michael Abrams Limited a Z clip is a piece of hardware that attached to wall and the back of the panel. The panel than slides down on the clip and is held into place. Another method is using an air gun too nail the panels to the wall.

floridablue54 Thanx Michael ,.......gonna try this myself...doesn't LOOK like rocket science...but then, I always say that just B4 one of my projects goes haywire ;D
donnamcqueen Hello, if you can't get the exact curtains, and idea would be to find a print similar that comes as a sheet, and use those as panels for your curtains or either for a curtain wall...
Caution Falling mirror - I know a family who lost their little boy when a free standing mirror fell on their little boy
I would suggest anchoring some kind of strong wire to a stud or some other way BE SAFE »
Will you be able to recomend someone in NJ to make this bed? Unless you work with someone already - I am renovating my bedroom and I hope you would work with me on getting this bed done in my house (in Roseland, NJ). If not, can you recommend someone here that will do it for me?
Many thanks,
Ilona »

Michael, Michael, Michael -- I feel like you are the male version of me. I love every one of your interiors. - Every one of your rooms is exactly what I would do if I had an ounce of your talent. Please keep posting photos of your beautiful work. »
Regarding the large mirror - Hi! I am re-creating this room in my 20x22 master bedroom. We have a question with the mirror. May I ask what materials are used to make the frames? It is difficult for me to decipher the shiny and the other trim. How is the mirror mounted? Is it flat adhered to the shiny material or is it 3-d? Many thanks »
What size and type of recessed lighting are you usingin ceiling? - What size and type of recessed pot light are you using here? Looks clean.
Do you think those would work for a bulk head that is only 12" off the wall face? »
Charmean Neithart Interiors, LLC. Beautiful room! Yes, African textiles and artifacts can easily be added to a modern aesthetic. The contrast of modern and the hand-crafted nature of African pieces work great together. I use African pieces very often for their texture and earthy color. I've attached some pictures of rooms with African pieces. Hope that helps and good luck with your project. Charmean Neithart

Hi Mr. Abrams,
I love your rooms. The wall colors are beautiful but it is the trim color and ceiling that make the room perfect. Would you share how you decide what to use? Should the whole house have the same trim color?
Thanks. »
Michael Abrams Limited Thank you for your kind words. I am a fan on consistency and therefore my trim colors are the same - I do not mix. I also like the color contrast between painted trim and painted walls.
Hello there! I've got a quick question about the bed. Do you have any idea where I can find one, or what's the name of the bed. Greatly appreciated!
-W.R. »
Michael Abrams Limited The bed and bench are custom from my work room in Chicago. The bedside tables are from Baker Furniture, and the mirror is custom from Niedermaier.

mlheckenast love this room!! can you email and tell me how much the panels are? and what size and what kind of material woud you use for a king size bed. thanks
Regarding the panels - Michael. I am having a workroom re-create the panels and would really like to know the thickness and edge used on the ones your workroom did. I need to know the backing if it was plywood or Masonite, and what thickness the foam or batting is. Was Dacron used? I am seeing a rippling along the edges and am not happy. Was a knife edge used? And what was the spacing and hanging technique used. Thank you so much for answering this pressing questions so my room can be complete. You should see it.....you would be proud. I wish I could send yu photos. My husband made a mirror that rivals the neidermaier...... »
Bed Frame - Hi Michael! I love love your creations. Would you be able to custom make the bed frame for me? I live in California. Please let me know your thoughts. »
7. Although this is a dark bedroom, the plush textiles and thick upholstered headboard give it an extra-cozy vibe. Houzz users loved the padded headboard on the wall and the smart use of the mirror, which spreads light throughout the space and makes the room feel bigger.
Go for the oversized full-length mirror. We’re all familiar with the need for a full-length mirror to catch a glimpse of ourselves before we start the day. But instead of tacking one on the back of the door, choose one that will make a statement. You'll have a mirror that’s perfect for checking outfits while doubling as a stunning piece aesthetically.
2. Highlight the focal wall. The wall that the bed is placed on automatically becomes the focal wall. Applying fabric or panels to make one padded wall will make your room appear softer and so much more elegant.
The wall behind this bed was created by wrapping a Masonite board with padding and Donghia fabric. "It's not an expensive trick. Anyone could have something similar custom made by an upholstery shop," says designer Michael Abrams. "We wanted an extra layer of luxury. By upholstering the wall and placing a regular headboard up against it we've also added a sense of warmth and another layer to the room."
