How to Choose the Right Bed Size for Your Space

Choosing the right bed size isn't just a matter of style or personal preference. It's also a matter of functionality and ergonomics. A bed that's too big can make a bedroom feel cramped, while one that's too small may not meet your needs for comfortable sleep.

In this guide, we'll help you find the ideal bed size based on your space, needs, and bedroom layout.

1. Measure Your Space

Before choosing a bed , it is important to measure your bedroom . Keep in mind:

• The available length and width of the room
• The distances that should exist around the bed for comfortable movement (at least 60 cm around the perimeter is ideal)
• Placing furniture such as bedside tables , wardrobes , or desks

Tip: Draw on paper or use layout apps to see how each bed size fits in your space.

2. Know the Available Bed Sizes

In the Greek market, you will mainly encounter the following dimensions:

• Single (90x190/200cm): Children's or small spaces
• Semi-double (120x190/200cm): Teenagers or a single person who wants extra space
• Double (140x190/200cm): Couples in small bedrooms
• Queen Size (160x200cm): Balance of comfort and space
• King Size (180x200cm): Comfort for two people, larger bedrooms
• Super King (200x200cm): Luxury & ample sleeping space

3. Consider Your Sleep Needs

We don't all choose a bed with the same criteria. Consider:

• Do you sleep alone or with a partner?
• Do you move a lot in your sleep?
• Do you have children or pets that climb into bed ?

If you answered "yes" to any of the above, you may need a larger size than the one recommended for your space.

4. Don't Forget Height and Style

In addition to length and width, pay attention to:

• The height of the mattress and bed base: In small spaces, a raised bed with storage underneath can be an ideal solution.
• The design of the bed : A minimal or headboardless bed can make the room look more spacious.

5. Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Choosing a large bed without considering the movement in the room
• Buying a mattress before choosing a base
• Underestimating the importance of ergonomics
• Ignoring the general aesthetics and functionality of the space

Conclusion

The right choice of bed can transform not only your bedroom , but also the quality of your sleep. Take some time to properly study the dimensions, your habits and the layout of the space and you will definitely make the right choice.
