It’s often difficult to find enough storage space in small bedrooms, where a bed usually takes up most of the square footage, leaving little room for anything else. To help you maximise storage in your small bedroom, we take a look at the ones which came up with clever storage solutions for their limited space.
<h3>1. Go for a storage headboard</h3>
Headboards aren’t just an anchor for your bed; they can also work as storage. This headboard is a storage for books and also a study table on the opposite end. Compartments by the side also serve as a nightstand when needed.

<h3>2. Double up your nightstand</h3>
Speaking of nightstands, don’t make them a one trick pony. Have them work extra hard by doubling them up as your dressing table. This nightstand is also an effective divider between the sleeping area and wardrobe.

<h3>3. Make use of a platform</h3>
Taking advantage of its tall ceiling, this tiny studio apartment decided to build up. The designer crafted a storage platform bed that encompassed drawers by the side, under-bed storage, a cushioned seating area that functions as the living room and a roll-away study table that can be manoeuvred to wherever it’s needed.

<h3>4. Frame your bed with built-in storage</h3>
Maximise oft-unused space by installing built-ins up and around your bed. This also keep the visual bulk to one side of the space, so the bedroom doesn’t feel overwhelmed with bulky storage.

<h3>5. Take advantage of a recessed wall</h3>
Put those pesky recessed walls to good use by building shallow shelving. They are the perfect platform for displaying your favourite knick-knacks. With the help of baskets, the indent wall also helps to organise extra pillows.

<h3>6. Now you see me, now you don’t</h3>
Concealed storage is one of the best solutions for small bedrooms, since it doesn’t take up visual space. It lends for a clean, seamless look, minimising clutter and mess. In this kid’s bedroom, the closet is hidden behind a series of panels made into the bedroom’s feature. Minimalist doorknobs provide the only indication for where the storage is.

<h3>7. Fill the space under a window</h3>
Don’t waste that space under the window. The designer crafted a wall-mounted cabinet in this small bedroom, with one end functioning as a nightstand and the other serving as a vanity table.

<h3>8. Installed mirrored wardrobe fronts</h3>
Replacing conventional wardrobe fronts with mirror panels not only enhances the functionality of your closet, it also helps to create the illusion of a bigger, brighter and airier space thanks to the reflective qualities of mirrors. What’s not to like?

<h3>9. Use roller blinds for wardrobe doors</h3>
Here’s another alternative to conventional wardrobe doors—roller blinds! They take up much less room and require lesser clearance space so you can have a bigger wardrobe to fit all your fashion needs.

<h3>10. Include a pull-out</h3>
When you don’t want to take up precious floor estate with a bedside table, use a pull-out that you can extend when you need to use it and stow it back when you’re done with it. This pull-out nightstand extends from a compartment of the wardrobe, which is built all the way to the side of the bed to maximise storage.
