It’s time to bring your bedroom out of its state of arrested development. There’s many a man who is young at heart, who reflects this in the most private space his home has: the bedroom.
However, if you’re looking to show a more mature side to yourself and, just as importantly, ensure you don’t appear immature to any visitors you might have, then here are a few tips that can help you do that.
Change your approach to wall art
If you’re like a typical guy, then you may well have some of your favorite visuals on the walls, be they movie posters, aspirational figures, or other things that might speak to your own interests, but might not be all that interesting to outsiders.
You don’t need to quell your own tastes entirely. There’s tons of great wall art out there and you’re certainly going to be able to find something that both matches your taste but also looks more sophisticated than simply surrounding yourself with the trappings of your favorite pop culture.
Invest in quality and comfort
You might be able to sleep with just about any old sheet on top of you, but if you’re looking to impress some company, then you want to make sure that your bedding both looks and feels luxurious.
Not only is it going to create an overall more pleasant sensation in the bed for you and anyone you might invite to share it with you, but it’s also something of a status signifier. A little hint of luxury can make it seem like you’re a man who enjoys, and can afford, some of the finer things in life.
Upgrade your bed materials
The bed is the focal point of the bedroom, so you want to make sure that your efforts to make it look more mature go beyond the bedding alone. The bed itself can make a big impact, visually, and you want to choose materials that are reliable, sensible, and chic to make your bedroom look more stylish.
Wooden beds can do all of that and more, bringing some timeless style to your bedroom. What’s more, they’re a lot sturdier and easier to maintain, showing that you have your priorities straight when making choices in life.
Say goodbye to the TV
This might sound unthinkable to those of you who like to fall asleep to the hum of the TV at night. However, aside from being really bad for your sleep quality, keeping a TV in your bedroom offers a little too much modern distraction to make it a truly sophisticated and dedicated space.
If you want a little media in there, still, then an option that’s a little less glaringly contemporary, such as a vinyl player, can really class up the space. The same goes for keeping out any PCs or laptops, too.
The bedroom can be a very important scene for any relationship you want to pursue and, as such, showing a certain degree of maturity in there can be vital.
