When mixing and matching bedroom furniture consider layering textures, color, and different styles. Mix different material textures such as wood, mirror, metal, or stone. Create an overall color palette to produce a cohesive look. Combine the styles of furniture like a rustic nightstand with a modern bed, or traditional dresser.

The best colors for a bedroom to create an ambience that reduces stress and makes the space look bigger are lavender, soft green, pale blue, soft grey, and deep blue. Lavender is stress-reducing, pale blue creates soothing feelings, and soft green is a reminder of nature. Soft grey is a neutral calming shade, and deep blue provokes healing feelings.

Choosing a bed size should be based on a variety of factors including bedroom size, a person’s body type and height, and their relationship status (married, couple, or single). Most single sleepers can use nearly every mattress size, while couples prefer larger bed sizes from Queen to California King.

The largest bed size in production is the Alaskan King bed measuring 108” x 108” (274 x 274 cm). The largest bed in history was custom built for the summer festival of St. Gregorius in Hertme, Netherlands in 2011 and measured 87’ x 54’ (26.5 x 16.44 m).

Herman Miller acquired Design Within Reach in 2014. This purchase allowed Herman Miller to expand its reach into the retail segment, offering high-quality modern furniture directly to consumers. Design Within Reach's unique product offerings and strong retail presence complemented Herman Miller's established brand, creating a synergy between the two companies.

Authentic furniture designs often last longer than counterfeit furniture. Genuine pieces are made using high-quality materials, superior craftsmanship, and adhere to the original designer's specifications, ensuring durability and longevity. Counterfeit furniture, on the other hand, typically cuts corners in material and craftsmanship to reduce costs, which can compromise the furniture's lifespan and performance. While there are exceptions, authentic designs generally offer a better long-term investment in terms of wear and lifespan.
