The color scheme can be varied and contrasting.

For finishing, artificial materials, plastic, and synthetics are used. This design will appeal to creative individuals who lead an active lifestyle and love modern art, culture, music, and cinema.

Minimalism

Minimalism is not just one of the interior trends, it is a whole philosophy. And a person who adheres to this philosophy primarily values ​​the quality of things, not their quantity.

The space, designed in a minimalist style, is characterized by simplicity and modesty.

A bedroom in white is a traditional option for such an interior solution. White is often complemented by black, gray, beige, sand, and the color of wet asphalt.

When finishing, the choice should be made in favor of natural materials. The floor can be covered with laminate or tiles, and the ceiling can be painted with plain paint. The walls can be painted or wallpapered; it is advisable to leave these surfaces smooth and avoid textures.

Furniture should be chosen simple and comfortable, without frills.

As decoration, you can use paintings in plain frames, glass or ceramic vases of original shape and plants (live or dried flowers).

High-quality design development

We offer you a step-by-step plan of what to pay attention to:

Let's figure out the main areas: do you need a sofa or armchairs, a wardrobe, a table, a trellis, an ottoman. Let's start planning with furniture arrangement.

We measure the main parameters of the room: length, width, height. We draw a plan to scale in several copies so that we can make different options.

Distribute where you will have lights, chandeliers, sconces, switches, sockets.

Feng Shui teaches that for friendly family relationships, you need to hang two identical lamps above the bed in the bedroom.

• Consider the passages between the furniture: the minimum distance is 0.5 meters, and preferably 0.75-1 meter.
• We recommend that you stick to a certain style so that there is no dissonance. Think about how to decorate your bedroom. Collect interesting ideas for yourself, and then sort and leave the pictures you like the most, which will help you create a diagram. If you don’t know how to draw, then you can make a sketch of the interior using a collage. You can use clippings from magazines; even issues from previous years will do.

• Bedroom decoration - color and texture. Rough and embossed surfaces visually narrow the space, while glossy ones, on the contrary, expand them. Choose one primary color and an additional one, and the rest of the shades derived from this pair act as auxiliary ones.
• It will be convenient to form finishing materials into a table:
  

  SURFACE	TYPE OF MATERIAL	COLOR	TEXTURE
  FLOOR
  WALLS
  CEILING

• Well, your design project is ready. We make a shopping plan. At this stage, we choose furniture, a beautiful bed for the bedroom, calculate the amount of material, and think about how to decorate the bedroom.

Consider storage space

Do not give up tables or nightstands near your bed - they are convenient for storing cosmetics, storing books and notepads.

A built-in closet covering the entire wall will help not only to place things, but also to adjust the shape of an elongated room. Place it along one of the short walls to make the shape of the room more pleasing to the eye.

When planning your wardrobe, replace some of the shelves with drawers. They are convenient for storing clothes and linen that are often used: all items will be in sight.

If possible, separate a part of the bedroom of 3–5 square meters with partitions and create a dressing room. It holds more items than a closet and allows for optimal storage organization. Pay attention to the width: it is important that it is at least 1.8 meters, otherwise the dressing room will be inconvenient to use.

How to choose a color scheme

How to decorate a bedroom? An important rule for the ratio of colors in design: 60% - dominant color, 30% - additional, 10% - color accents. The choice of color is a significant factor in life and well-being. There are warm colors: red, yellow, orange. And cold ones: green, blue, purple. Black, white and gray maintain color balance. Red removes negative emotions and evokes a feeling of warmth. But use it very little, for example in accessories, as it causes irritation and controversy. Yellow lifts your spirits. It is used with windows facing north. Orange improves your mood, but too much is stressful and quickly tires you out. Green calms and helps cope with stress. Blue helps you relax, but too much makes you feel tired. Blue calms, calms, and relieves emotional stress. Purple stimulates brain function and imagination. Goes well with yellow.

If the bedroom decoration has rich and rich colors, then the furniture should be dim. Conversely, light walls are combined with contrasting, eye-catching objects.

What to hang above the bed in the bedroom, based on the style of the room.

Purely practical minimalism

Bedrooms decorated in a minimalist style are the embodiment of practicality and mathematically strict order. Such a room is most suitable for a strong-willed person who is able to strictly limit his natural aesthetic impulses. All his belongings must be exactly in their places. The slightest signs of everyday chaos will mercilessly ruin the entire design concept.

Despite all the inherent rigor of minimalism, this interior style is widely in demand today. There are a number of reasons for this phenomenon. The main one is the fact that a modestly but tastefully furnished bedroom allows you to quickly restore strength after a hard day at work.

It also encourages a metropolitan resident, tired of the endless bustle, to deeply comprehend the results of the day and draw up realistic plans for the near future.

Small bedroom interior

• Usually the bedrooms in an apartment are small, but don’t be upset, because small ones are more comfortable than large ones.
• To visually expand the space, choose light and uniform colors for the floor.
• The carpet should completely cover the floor so as not to reduce it. Make the walls one color, light with an inconspicuous pattern.
• A glossy ceiling will add height. And light airy curtains will not block the penetration of light.
• A bedroom in light colors will appear wider. The brighter the room, the more spacious it will seem, and use bright accessories for variety.
• For lighting you will have to abandon a large chandelier. Spotlights and wall sconces will not clutter up the space.
• To save space, the bed can be placed on a podium, and drawers can be arranged in it for storing things.

Add the ability to adjust the temperature

Air conditioning in the bedroom.

Select a location for the split system and install an outlet under the indoor unit. Do this even if you don’t buy an air conditioner yet: in the future you won’t have to run wires across the entire room and cover them with ugly plastic profiles.

To choose a place for the air conditioner, focus on the location of the bed. The indoor unit should not be hung opposite it - this will cause cold air to blow directly onto the sleeping area. It is better to install the air conditioner on the wall next to the headboard: the air flow will pass over the bed and be reflected from the opposite wall.

Bedroom lighting

Lighting affects well-being and visual comfort, so we recommend: - keep the lighting dim, diffused, muted; - the main source of light, a chandelier, should be located in the central part of the bedroom;

- if you like to read at night, then arrange an additional light source near the headboard, for example, sconces or lamps;

- You should also hang lamps near the mirror.

— lamps with adjustable lighting intensity adjust the brightness of the light.

Plan pass-through switches at the entrance and near the bed. You can turn on the light when you enter and turn it off without getting out of bed.

Do not place heavy shelves above the bed

An acceptable option is shelves within the storage system that are not loaded with things.

If you do hang them above your sleeping place, make sure they are securely fastened and do not load them with heavy objects - this will reduce the likelihood that one day the structures will collapse.

Give preference to cabinets with doors to prevent things from collecting dust. To diversify the interior, choose interesting facades. There are many of them on the market: there are glass doors with paintings or stained glass, wooden and plywood doors with leather look and other textures. The main thing is that they are combined with the rest of the interior items.

Decorating the room: secrets and life hacks

To make an inexpensive bedroom renovation, you can save at different stages:

• We design it ourselves.
• We save on hiring professionals where we can do it ourselves. For example, finishing - wallpapering, plastering the walls and ceiling, laying laminate, linoleum, mounting baseboards.
• We don't change what we can keep. If you are satisfied with the heating system, then we leave it unchanged, without replacing pipes and radiators. For a bedroom in an apartment, this will help you save a lot.
• If you will wallpaper or paint the walls and ceiling, then glue or paint the ceiling first, and then the walls. Next comes finishing the bedroom with linoleum or laminate.
• On the contrary, the parquet is laid very first, only after it comes the design of the ceiling and walls in the bedroom.
• The stretch ceiling is done after finishing the walls.

We offer a video that contains 18 decorating life hacks that will help transform your home.

Why aerated concrete cracks - reasons

Common reasons for the formation of defects in aerated concrete masonry include:

• non-compliance with masonry technology;
• shrinkage of the house;
• non-compliance with proportions when preparing the solution;
• the use of defective block stone or binding materials that have expired.

This also includes weak and heterogeneous soils, which begin to destroy the foundation, as a result this affects the walls. If the depth of the foundation is insufficient, then cracks may also appear after some time.

Vertical

Most often, vertical cracks appear on masonry made of aerated concrete blocks. They can be wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, and vice versa. The cracks may radiate and branch, and they may be “hairline”—so thin that they are barely noticeable.

There are several reasons for this type of defect to appear:

• foundation subsidence;
• excessive pressure of the floor slab on the wall;
• shallow foundation depth;
• absence of expansion joint between different parts of the building.

Subsidence of the foundation may occur if a house made of aerated concrete is built in a swampy area or in an area of ​​severe soil freezing. To prevent this from happening, it is necessary to conduct soil tests before construction, as well as examine the surrounding area. Cracks can be repaired, but it is not a fact that the problem will not reoccur in a few years.

Despite the fact that aerated blocks are a fairly light material, if their density is selected incorrectly, cracks may appear. This means that the floor slab is putting too much pressure on the wall. As a result, the house begins to gradually sink and vertical defects appear. Acceptable norms for supporting a floor slab on walls made of different materials are presented in SNiP.

The shallow depth of the foundation also affects the further operation of the house. The minimum indicators are 50 cm from the planned surface of the territory, but in each case these figures will be different. The indicator depends on the groundwater level and the degree of soil freezing.

Horizontal

If defects in the horizontal direction are noticeable on the walls, then there are several explanations for this:

1. Poor quality gas block. When selling in stores, sellers can advise different things in order to quickly sell “stale” goods.
   You should not fall for such tricks and choose a stone “at a discount” in order to save money.

   It is better to give preference to trusted manufacturers who sell directly from the factory.

   Then the risks of getting a low-quality stone that will not survive the winter are minimized.

2. Invalid block class selection. Load-bearing walls must be made of block grade D500-D600. Its strength should be class B2.5, B3.5–5. If you choose a gas block with lower performance, then there is a high probability of getting horizontal defects over time. The thing is that blocks with a lower density and grade are not adapted to high loads.
3. Laying on incorrectly prepared or low-quality mortar. It is recommended to prepare the adhesive composition or cement-sand mortar only in full compliance with the instructions and proportions. If you add more water, the mixture will become too liquid and will not be able to provide the proper strength characteristics in the overall masonry. If the solution is excessively thick, then when applied to the stone, it will set quickly, not allowing time for adjustment.
4. The weight of the floors is too high. In this case, the cracks have a horizontal direction, but look like arcs.
5. If horizontal cracks form above the window opening, the reason is the insufficient strength of the ceiling above the window, which cannot withstand the load.

Microcracks

Small cracks form for the following reasons:

• non-autoclaved aerated concrete was selected;
• the time for normalizing the temperature of the material was not maintained;
• incorrect production of blocks;
• lack of leveling of the gas block with a float;
• improper reinforcement of masonry;
• incorrectly installed jumpers.

Often microcracks appear where the reinforcing belt has not been installed. For example, floor slabs were laid on stone, the walls cracked due to the disproportionate load on them. If an armored belt had been made during the laying, this would not have happened.

Preliminary work - what is important not to forget about

To make renovations in the bedroom with your own hands, you first need to:

1. Empty all drawers and cabinets, put all small items in boxes.
2. Remove curtains and drapes.

3. Take out all the furniture or cover it with film so as not to get dirty during repairs. But it is advisable to free up space so that nothing gets in the way.
4. We remove the old finish.
   
5. We remove the windows and door and install new ones instead.
6. According to the project, we are making electrical wiring for the future installation of chandeliers, sconces, lamps, and sockets.

7. We prime and level the ceiling, then screed the floor.
