How to compose the bedside table decor
According to architect Júlia Burrell, from Burrell Arquitetura, there are several ways to compose the decoration of a bedside table.
Julia Burrel
Architect at Burrell Architecture
“Group at least three different objects, to vary the heights and volumes. In this way, one enhances the other and the composition becomes harmonic. Choose items that make sense for your routine, or even that serve to implement a new habit. If you want to start reading, place a book and indirect lighting next to the bed, for example. You will remember to read before bed until it becomes a habit.”
According to Júlia, it is important to look for objects that combine with each other, but that are not necessarily a set.

“It’s also worth creating sensations through these objects! Whether with a candle that smells like you like, with cozy lighting, or with a special memory for you. All this is important for you to feel at ease and relax. But be careful not to weigh too much. The aim is to decorate in a light, cozy and functional way. Avoid too many elements or objects that bring too much visual weight to the space.”
See below some items suggested by the architect:
- Decorative tray to support a water jug/glass;
- Basket for blankets and blankets;
- Lighting (lamp, sconce or pendant);
- Books (put some beside the bed and use them as support, also to compose with other objects);
- Smells (candle, diffuser, flavouring);
- Bedside table composition with puff for support;
- Decorative paintings that convey good feelings or memories;
- Decorative box or decorative plates to store accessories before bedtime.
