How to make a bedroom look bigger
les hIf you’ve got a small bedroom, then you’ll know just how cramped and uncomfortable they can feel. There’s next to no storage space, mess builds up quickly, and decorating is particularly difficult. Luckily, though, there a several clever design tricks you can use to make your space appear larger and more inviting. Whether you're working with limited space or just want to make your bedroom feel more open, our experts at TV Bed share their top tips for making your bedroom look bigger. Use light colours for walls and furniture One of the easiest ways to make your bedroom feel larger is to opt for soft, neutral tones for walls and furniture. Whites, light greys, and soft pastels reflect light, making the space feel airier and much more expansive. Try to avoid heavy, dark colours or overbearing patterns as much as possible, as they can make a room feel more enclosed. Maximise natural light Natural light works wonders in small areas, and a well-lit room will always feel bigger and more inviting! If you’re dealing with a closed-in feel, keep windows clear of heavy curtains, and instead opt for lightweight sheer curtains or blinds to allow more natural light to flow through your room. Keep furniture to a minimum and choose pieces that work smarter Clutter is one of the biggest culprits in making a space feel smaller. Of course, if you have limited square footage, it makes most sense to opt for fewer pieces of furniture and ensure that each item serves a functional purpose. When shopping around, look for pieces with built-in storage to reduce visual clutter, and consider choosing pieces that sit off the floor, like floating shelves and beds with raised frames, to create the illusion of more space. Likewise, by combining a comfortable bed with a built-in television that rises and retracts at the touch of a button, a TV bed saves space by eliminating the need for a separate TV stand or media console. What’s more, with their clean, sleek design, they contribute to a minimalist aesthetic, helping your room feel less cluttered and more spacious whilst bringing a welcome touch of luxury. For a stylish, functional solution for your bedroom, explore our range of TV beds online today! Hang mirrors to reflect space If you want to visually expand your room, don’t underestimate the power of simply hanging a mirror. Place a large mirror on one wall to reflect light and create the illusion of a larger space, and experiment with groups of smaller mirrors around the rest of the room to create a stylish, contemporary feel. Use vertical space wisely Walls offer valuable storage space, particularly in smaller bedrooms. So, consider installing shelves above your bed or desk space for books, plants, and other decor. You could also choose a tall wardrobe instead of a wide one to help free up floor space and give you more room to store your belongings. Need more expert tips? Making a small bedroom feel bigger is all about smart design choices. By incorporating light colours, reducing clutter, and using clever furniture options like TV beds, you can create a space that feels open, comfortable, and stylish, no matter how small the room is.

Cosy blankets. Fresh popcorn. The big screen all to yourself… Nothing beats an at-home movie night. However, when it comes to creating the ultimate cinema experience in the comfort of your own home, sound is just as important as the visuals, and no matter if you’re watching the latest horror or settling down with your favourite sitcom, immersive audio makes all the difference. But great sound doesn’t just belong in our living rooms. In this blog, our experts at TV Bed explore the importance of a good sound setup for your at-home film nights and how a surround sound TV bed could be the perfect addition to your space. Why does sound matter? The spine-tingling suspense of a thriller. The rumbling of an action scene. The quiet whispered line that reels you in. Sound plays a huge part in how we experience shows, movies, and video games - especially in the bedroom, where you’re closer to the screen and speakers. With a TV bed, especially one equipped with True Sound 5.1 or Dolby Atmos surround sound, you can feel every moment with your favourite characters, and turn casual watching into a full-on sensory experience. What’s the difference between True Sound 5.1 and Dolby Atmos sound? Speaking of True Sound and Dolby Atmos, these are two names that stand out in the world of immersive audio. Both deliver impressive surround sound, theatre-like experiences, but they do so in slightly different ways. Whilst True Sound 5.1 systems use five strategically placed speakers and a subwoofer to place you at the centre of the action, Dolby Atmos systems add a vertical dimension by simulating overhead sound, creating a 3D, room-filling effect. Advantages of surround sound TV beds Immersive experience Whichever surround sound TV bed you choose, an immersive at-home cinema experience is guaranteed, thanks to the speaker system built into the frame. You’ll feel in on all the action, and the best part is, you don’t even have to move from your bed! Clear dialogue Surround sound TV beds, particularly those equipped with True Sound 5.1 technology, provide a clear and direct path for dialogue, thanks to the central speaker. This speaker also ensures that dialogue sounds come directly from the screen, rather than off to the side, which again, places you front and centre with all your favourite characters – guaranteeing you don't miss a word. Balanced sound By accurately capturing a range of high and low frequency sounds, both Dolby Atmos and True Sound 5.1 systems provide beautifully balanced sound when watching movies or TV shows, playing video games, or streaming your favourite songs. Versatility With both HDMI and Bluetooth connectivity options, both True Sound and Dolby Atmos systems can be used to enhance sound whilst streaming music from your phone, playing games on your console, or catching up on your favourite TV shows. Need help choosing the perfect surround sound TV bed? At TV Bed, we’re proud to offer a range of luxurious surround sound TV beds, equipped with only the best technology to provide you with the ultimate at-home cinema experience.

Read moreDeep sleep debunked (and why your mattress matters)
From suspending all tech use an hour before bedtime, to getting more exercise during the day, there are many things we can do to help us get a better night’s sleep. Perhaps one of the biggest influences on our quality of shut-eye, though, is our mattress. It definitely has a lot to answer for, and picking the right one pays in many different ways beyond sleep. In this blog, our experts at TV Bed discuss the reasons why choosing the right mattress matters, and share some of our top recommendations for the most comfortable night’s rest. Why is a good night’s sleep so important? It’s no secret how vital a good night’s sleep is. As an adult, you should be getting between 7 to 9 hours of sleep each night to help your body recover from the day’s stresses, and to help prepare your body for the day that awaits. Not getting enough shut-eye can result in mood swings (or low mood in general), reduced focus, weakened immunity, and even long-term health problems like obesity, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. So, how can my mattress impact the quality of my sleep? As we’ve touched upon, your mattress can have a huge impact on the quality of your sleep in a number of different ways, which can include: Spinal support and alignment A good mattress has a huge influence on how well your spine aligns during sleep, keeping it in a neutral position and relieving pressure on your back, hips, and shoulders. An old, sagging mattress doesn’t offer nearly half as much support, and can lead to restless nights, muscle strain, and over time, chronic pain, making it more difficult to drift off. Pressure point relief Some types of mattresses, particularly those made with memory foam, help distribute your weight more evenly, which helps to relieve built-up pressure in sensitive areas like the shoulders, hips, lower back, and knees. Temperature regulation The importance of a cool environment for sleep should never be underestimated, and some mattresses are made with built-in technology to help you better control and maintain your body temperature by allowing airflow and preventing overheating. Pain relief If you struggle with back, neck, and joint pain, a good orthopaedic mattress could be the answer to all your problems. By helping you correct your posture, a supportive mattress will help alleviate pain and ensure a better night’s sleep. Allergy control If you’re an allergy sufferer, be it in summer or year-round, a hypoallergenic mattress made with latex or other memory foam could be a huge help. This material is great for resisting dust and other allergens, and contributes to a much healthier sleeping environment. How do I choose the right mattress? The right mattress for you depends on several different factors, from your body type, weight, and sleeping position, to your budget and any unique features you’d like your mattress to have. Check out our ultimate guide to choosing your next mattress, where we delve deeper into the importance of picking the perfect mattress and our top tips to keep in mind when shopping around.
