SPACE REPORT #08: THE HOVE BEDROOM | malletandplane.com

Some rooms don't need more space.

They need more purpose.

This bedroom in Hove already had generous proportions, good natural light and built-in storage. The challenge wasn't finding room for additional furniture. It was helping the room do more than simply accommodate a bed.

The first opportunity was storage. A Century Chest of 3 Drawers introduces practical everyday organisation without overwhelming the room. Positioned opposite the bed, it creates a natural dressing area while adding warmth through its rich walnut finish.

Beside the bed, a pair of Regent Walnut Bedside Tables provide useful bedside storage while maintaining visual balance. Their rounded edges and compact footprint keep the room feeling calm and uncluttered.

The unused corner presented a second opportunity. By introducing the Sir Alfred Armchair alongside the Fresca Walnut & Marble Side Table, the bedroom gains a quiet place to read, unwind or simply pause at the end of the day. The room now supports more than sleep alone.

Above the bed, the Tierra Wall Art helps connect the space, bringing together the warm walnut tones and soft neutral palette found throughout the room.

None of these changes are dramatic.

But together they give the bedroom a clearer purpose.

Because the best rooms aren't necessarily the largest rooms.

They're the rooms that work hardest for the people who live in them.
