Modern guest bedroom designs to make an impression

• If you have a book collection to boast, keep some in the guest room for your guests to browse through. Books also make for great décor pieces. Keep some on the shelves and some on the bedside table for easy access.

• A fun guest room idea is to include a chalkboard component. A chalkboard or even a chalkboard wall in the room adds a playful element that no one can resist partaking in.

• Your guests might need extra linens or bath essentials. Store them in a trunk which can double as an accent piece.

• Opt for sconces and recessed lighting for a chic and clean look.

• Based on the room’s aesthetic, use jars as décor items that can later be used to keep fresh flowers when your guests arrive. Opt for translucent glass jars for a contemporary look, earthenware for rustic or shabby chic aesthetic, ceramic or metal vases for vintage styles.

• Install a chandelier for a glam vibe.

Guest room furniture

Here is a list of all the essential furniture pieces for a modern guest room.

5. You can get creative when it comes to bedside tables. Use a chair or a stool if you’re working with a smaller guest room interior. You can use other pieces that might offer multi-functionality, such as desks.

6. A full-length mirror is always a good guest room idea. Not only will it help your guests when they’re getting ready for the day, but it will also enhance the ambience of the room.

Whichever design style you pick, ensure that the décor is minimal and functional. Your guests should be able to use the room for themselves. If the room feels too busy or kitschy, they might find it difficult to get comfortable. A guest bedroom idea is to create nooks that provide the illusion of enclosing space, amplifying the intimacy. Lighting in the room is a crucial design element. Ample natural light can make the room appear bright and fresh. Softer lighting options like string lights, candles, lamps, etc., will make the guest bedroom snug and restful. Enhance the effect of the soft lighting by strategically placing mirrors in the room.

Guest room décor ideas

We’ve seen some ways in which various design elements in a room can influence the ambience. Décor in the room, small or big, can have just as significant an impact. The details you add with décor add visual interest and personality. It is also through the décor that you can entice the different senses. Tactile elements, optical components, scents all combined will add to the vibe of the room.

To make the guest room feel homey, layer textiles for the bedding and add throw pillows. Area rugs can also make the room feel warm. The fabric used in a room does a lot to set the tone in the room. The more fluffy and soft seeming the textile is, the more relaxing and friendly the room will appear. The bedding, the pile of throws or the rug, could be the statement piece in the room. A canopy for the bed is another opportunity to add textile to the guest bedroom.

Fresh flowers and greens liven up the room and, at the same time, add a personal touch. The guests will no doubt appreciate it. Place potted plants on the side tables or have a few hanging by the window. Create a seasonal centrepiece using fresh flora. Add scented candles or potpourri in the room for gentle, enveloping fragrance. These can easily be used to match the rest of the décor in the room.

Implementing these guest room décor ideas is sure to make your guests feel welcome in your home.
