Interior design Tips The Concept of dinamic space in Bedroom design

Any empty bedroom space has certain parameters attached to it the moment it gets created. What are these parameters? First of all the length, width,and height , the physical dimensions of the bedroom. These three have a unique relation to each other. Rooms with less length and width and too much height or too broad length and width and less height are not proportionate and tend to create discomfort.


But there are special cases where too much of height is anecessity. Some examples are church buildings, cinema halls. Here it is necessary to accommodate large group of people and project a kind if grandness through design. That's why the space gets altered depending upon the use or "function" of the space.Hence in a bedroom the space takes a form of its own depending upon inners activities of the space.

An imaginary travel path gets fixed starting from the entrance door of the bedroom. This imaginary travel path forces the user to arrange the furniture, in a way which will not create obstruction in

the path.


After the furniture has been arranged, what remains is the

space used for circulation inside the bedroom. If the bedroom has a small area and too many exit points, then the room is left with a fixed furniture layout. At such times the success of the bedroom

decorating projectlies in detailing. By detailing I mean small things such as upholstery materials, color schemes, furniture textures and finishes.


But with bedrooms which have large areas, the moment youchange the furniture layout, the circulation space takes a new form andthe entire room looks a new one. This is what I mean by "dynamic space"

which takes a new shape.

It's like that example of the glass half filledwith water.The moment you change the quantity of water space alters and the glass looks different.

Here we have come to an interesting conclusion of this article. From the above discussion one thing is very clear. The "personality" of a space can be easily altered by allowing the empty circulation space to take a new form. In interior design everyone talks about furniture, colors, textures,paints, wallpapers, etc... but no one talks about "Empty Space"which is equally powerful. Finally it is the empty space which remains and is a measure of the comfort level for the user. If there is very less empty space remaining in a room after the furniture is placed, it is considered uncomfortable.

I hope this article was informative to everyone.
