As someone who used to live in a studio apartment with my husband before we got married, I’m here to tell you that a bedroom is a very special room of the house. It’s where you can relax and get away, not just from the daily grind, but even the hustle and bustle that goes on in the rest of your home.

Now, taking it a step further, what can take a bedroom to the next level of special, is a sitting area. Designing a little corner to read a book or just daydream is something really great, if you have the space.

I love this design above, found on Remodelista. It’s quite simple, yet every detail is considered. The mix of materials, along with the deep rich color of the chaise and bold wall light, makes this my favorite reading corner yet.
