Welcome to Style & Storage where small bedrooms get big confidence
Let’s clear something up straight away.
A small bedroom is not a lost cause.
It’s not doomed.
It’s not destined to look like a glorified box room full of regret.
It just needs smarter furniture and better decisions.
This is Style & Storage, Funkybedz style. Where space works harder and bedrooms stop apologising for themselves.
The biggest mistake people make in small bedrooms
They waste floor space.
And then wonder why the room feels cramped.
Wardrobes bulging.
Drawers overflowing.
Stuff shoved under the bed like it’s in witness protection.
Your floor is not a storage unit.
Why the bed matters more than any other furniture
The bed is the biggest item in the room.
If it’s not pulling its weight, you’re losing valuable space.
A standard bed frame just sits there.
A storage bed earns its keep.
Storage beds are sexy and we said what we said.
Ottoman beds: the king of hidden storage
If you want maximum storage with minimal effort, start here.
Ottoman beds use the entire space under the mattress.
No wasted corners.
No awkward gaps.
Just lift and load.
Perfect for:
- Spare bedding
- Seasonal clothes
- Shoes that swear they’ll be worn again
End lift or side lift: which works best in small rooms
Not all bedrooms are built the same.
And not all ottomans open the same way.
End lift storage beds
End lift storage beds are ideal if you’ve got space at the foot of the bed.
Easy access.
Simple layout.
Classic choice.
Side lift storage beds
Side lift storage beds are perfect when space is tight.
Great for box rooms.
Perfect if your bed is tucked against a wall.
Smart storage without gymnastics.
Storage beds with drawers: practical and predictable
If you prefer quick access, drawers do the job.
Storage beds with drawers are great for everyday items.
Socks.
T-shirts.
Things you grab often.
Just remember drawers need clearance.
If your room is narrow, ottoman wins.
TV beds: storage meets indulgence
Small bedroom doesn’t mean boring.
It just means smarter luxury.
TV beds with storage combine hidden compartments with built-in entertainment.
No bulky units.
No extra furniture.
One bed. Multiple jobs.
Efficiency never looked so good.
Choose the right bed frame style for space
Bulky frames eat visual space.
Clean lines create breathing room.
In smaller bedrooms, opt for:
- Low-profile headboards
- Slim silhouettes
- Upholstered finishes for softness
Our bed frames are designed to balance presence and proportion.
Colour and fabric choices matter
Dark doesn’t always mean bad.
But balance is key.
In small rooms:
- Lighter fabrics open the space
- Neutral tones feel calmer
- Textured upholstery adds warmth without clutter
Explore fabric options via our fabric guide.
Smart styling tricks that fake extra space
You don’t need a renovation.
You need better tricks.
- Mirrors reflect light and depth
- Floating bedside tables free floor space
- Vertical storage draws the eye upwards
- Consistent colour palettes reduce visual clutter
Clutter is the enemy of style.
Mattress choice affects space too
A bulky mattress can overwhelm a small room.
Choose a mattress that complements your bed, not swallows it.
Our mattress collection offers supportive designs without unnecessary bulk.
Small bedroom, big sleep energy
Good storage improves sleep.
Less mess.
Less stress.
More calm.
Your bedroom should feel like a retreat, not a cupboard.

Final word from Style & Storage
Small bedrooms don’t need sympathy.
They need strategy.
The right storage bed can double your space and triple your confidence.
Choose furniture that works harder.
Sleep better.
Live tidier.
And stop apologising for your square footage.
