In today's video, I'm going over eight design principles that turn any bedroom into a cosy and comforting space.
When I say cosy, I don't mean dark, cluttered, or expensive, and it's certainly not about putting 17 cushions on your bed, so please don't do that.
It's about using design and psychology to understand what makes us feel comfortable, warm, and sheltered in a space and translating that into interior design.
I'll be proving these ideas really work using photos, floor plans, and before-and-after examples so you can see and judge for yourself! I hope sharing this condensed knowledge helps you create the cosy bedroom you're after.
