Employed well, bedroom corners can unlock precious square inches that count towards storage and style. From sloping ceilings to tiny crevices, freestanding walls to overhead nooks, all it takes is a little imagination to find the perfect cupboard for that particular bedroom corner. If you’ve been yearning for more storage space in the bedroom, this round-up of ideas should serve you well. Turn your bedchamber into a haven of storage with these helpful designs.
1. Nightstand cupboards
While it’s customary to have a nightstand by your bed, why waste all the precious vertical space above it? Fill up the ceiling corners on either side of your bed with extended cupboards that connect to your nightstand.
In this nautical bedroom, tall white double-decker storage units flank the bed. The units pull double-duty, serving as convenient nightstands while providing a tall, deep vault of storage for the room’s occupant.

No corner? No problem. Create an entire corner of storage with a freestanding wall like this one.
Not only can a custom corner wall offer you ample built-in storage, it can also seamlessly blend into the background without seeming like an unsightly imposition.

6. Floor-to-ceiling unit
A tall corner cupboard can hugely augment your storage, and can be an aesthetic addition to your bedroom. Consider adding drawers at the bottom for a little variety. Paint your unit the same colour as your walls to blur its outlines. This way, you don’t have to worry about the cupboard making your room look smaller or interfering with your decor.
A daisy-white cupboard sparkles at the far end of this room, mounted atop a set of drawers, matched by another one at the other corner (seen at left). Being the same shade as the the room’s palette, it masquerades as an extension of the wall, allowing the bed to take centre stage.
