I’m an interior designer – the biggest bedroom decorating mistake people make, the reason it’s wrong might scare you
AN interior designer said people often make a big mistake when plotting their bedrooms.
Although some decorating decisions may seem obvious or inconsequential, there’s one that will change the whole feel of your space.
Nina Takesh (@ninatakeshofficial) is an interior designer who recently revealed that the direction your bed faces is a make-or-break choice.
In the video, she said: “The position of your bed says a lot about you, your life, and your relationship. Especially, a marital one.”
Speaking about the Chinese practice that claims to use energy to harmonize individuals with their environment, Nina said the most important aspect of bedroom feng shui is bed placement.
“If your bed is aligned with the door of your bedroom and your feet are pointing towards that door, that is probably the worst thing you can do,” she claimed, adding that you should change it immediately.
Why is it so bad? “Feng shui considers this ‘the death position.’ It is how people who have passed away get carried out.”
As for the best placement, in another video Nina recommended having your bed “directly diagonal from your door in the far corner.”
“You need to be placed in a position where you can see anything and everything that comes through that door, hence, this is why this position is called ‘the command position.’”
Most viewers were thankful for the advice.
“Literally just rearranged my bedroom at 1:30 AM. Hoping for the best sleep of my life lol,” one person commented.
“I was so ready to move my bed but I’m already good,” added another.
