By incorporating some easy dining room design ideas, your interiors flair will shine brightly (even if your cooking skills are lacking).

How to create a Modern Master Bedroom
Your master bedroom isn’t just some dull old room you crash in at night. It’s your personal retreat, the place where your dreams (and maybe some questionable life choices) come to life. It sets the tone for how you kick off and wind down your day, so you’d better believe it should ooze comfort and elegance. If you’re a Kiwi ready to improve your space, this blog serves up some seriously practical inspo for modern master bedroom design that New Zealanders crave. So, let’s now dive into those master bedroom ideas and turn that snooze zone into something truly special. Modern vs Traditional Bedroom Designs: What’s the Difference? When you delve into bedroom designs, you’re mainly looking at these two heavyweights: modern and traditional. Traditional bedrooms come in like a vintage train with all the frills. Think ornate furniture and colour schemes that’d make a Victorian blush. They’re all about that comforting, nostalgic vibe, like a warm hug from your grandma, complete with floral wallpaper. Now, modern bedrooms are the new kids on the block, strutting in with their clean lines and minimalist flair. They’ve ditched the ornamentation to embrace a neutral ‘less is more’ palette. And then there’s (ooh, yeah) multifunctional furniture, the Swiss Army knife of the design world, proving that style and practicality can be BFFs. Imagine a modern bedroom as a breath of fresh air, channelling that Scandinavian vibe that’s aligned with modern Kiwi living. It’s all about open spaces and a light, airy feel, where you feel refreshed, like you’ve just stepped out of a spa. Solidwood Bailey Bed Frame, Low Profile, Natural Wood Linspire Aspire Bed Frame With Storage Headboard, Natural Wood Linspire Juniper Bed Frame With Shelving Unit, Natural Wood, White Modern Lighting with Japandi Calm and Nordic Edge Let’s start with lighting. Yes, that ‘secret spice’ hero of your sweet new haven. If your room were a movie set, lighting is what makes the difference between it looking like a B-grade flick and an intriguing, moody Euro arthouse masterpiece. In modern bedroom styling, layered lighting works its magic to set the mood, like the serene vibes of Japandi design or the chic coolness of Nordic aesthetics. Picture this. Sculptural pendants hanging from the ceiling, just waiting to make a statement. They give functionality and style in spades. And then you have those warm-toned Japandi bedside lamps, softening everything like a warm hug after a long, hard day. So, the takeaway? Nail those lighting choices like a pro, and watch your personal sanctuary turn into the ultimate mood-setting haven. Loft Japandi NZ Queen Platform Bed Base Loft Japandi Bed Frame, Light Wood Make the Bed Your Modern Statement Piece In the realm of modern master bedroom design, the bed is like the ultimate diva. It demands attention and steals the show. Opt for a clean-lined bed frame, and voilà, you've got the anchor your room has been waiting for. And then there’s the all-important bedding linen. Because no one wants to sleep in a potato sack. So, go ahead and indulge a little. Layer those crisp white sheets with a cosy throw that beckons, ‘Come, snuggle me’, and throw on a patterned doona cover to boot. That layered look isn’t just a feast for the eyes but a total game changer for your comfort and how you feel. Who needs a luxury hotel when you find yourself in your very own bedroom, zhoozhed to your exact taste. Nu Edition Charlie Duvet Cover Set, Sand Nu Edition Alec Duvet Cover Set, Carbon Bedside Tables with Simple, Thoughtful Styling When it comes to bedside tables, don’t just settle for any clunky old thing. Go for those slim, modern designs in elegant wood or a glossy finish with clean, minimalist vibes. You want pieces that give you that all-important bedside storage without making your room feel overcrowded. And then, there’s modern bedroom styling, a mixture of functional and fabulous. As mentioned, a bedside lamp is a must. Toss in a few choice books (or the latest romantic novel, no judgment here) and maybe a cute little potted plant to add character. These pieces all come together to make a vibe-worthy haven. You’ll be so proud of that bedside setup, you’ll consider a new career in interior design. Mid-Century Modern Vibes Scandinavian Vibes Hampton Vibes Scandinavian Vibes Neutral Bedroom Colours for Timeless Style Think of your bedroom colour palette as your personal vibe setter. Go for whites, greys, and those soft, muted tones that give off ‘zen master’. You’ll be immersing yourself in calm vibes every day. But hey, if you’re so inclined, don’t be afraid to spice things up, either. Pair those soothing shades with some bold furniture or art that demands attention. It’s a mix of calmness with a hint of sass. And the best part? A neutral bed base means you can play around with the latest trends without committing to anything too out there. Just swap in some new accessories or a trendy piece of art and voilà! Fresh look, fresh feels. Sleek Bedroom Furniture with a Modern Edge To nail that modern master bedroom aesthetic, you want to get just the right furniture. Think low-line dressers that are as sleek as they are spacious, giving plenty of storage while keeping the vibe effortlessly cool. And how about those glossy finishes! They bring just the right amount of ‘I got style’ shine. Pair that with minimalist silhouettes, and you've got a design that feels airy enough to host a cloud slumber party. And let’s not forget to be besties with clever storage. Furniture that pulls double duty is a complete winner. You get to declutter surfaces and still have room to breathe. With these things in play, you’re set to have the bedroom of your dreams. Linspire Whisper Adjustable Dressing Table with Chest of 6 Drawers Solidwood Norway Chest of 6 drawers, 120x40CM, Natural Wood Loft Ensio Floating Dressing table with Chest of 6 Drawers One Bold Feature for a Modern Focal Point To take your modern bedroom from ‘weh’ to ‘wowzers’, all you need is one daring feature that takes the spotlight. It may be a show-stopping pendant light, a headboard with personality, or an eye-catching bedside lamp. By picking one standout piece, you're giving your room a solid anchor for your eyes to feast on. It adds the perfect dash of character without going overboard, letting your personality shine as brightly as that bold light fixture. 75 Your Modern Bedroom, Your Way Putting together your modern master bedroom isn’t some complex rocket science. By taking a few simple steps, like using a neutral colour palette, layering up some lighting and choosing sleek, streamlined furniture, your bedroom will look like something fresh from a design magazine. So maybe it’s time to take that design-challenged bedroom and turn it into your personal sanctuary where comfort rules and chaos takes a walk. At Urban Sales, our swoon-worthy contemporary bedroom furniture and décor pieces will make it happen for you. And with our NZ-wide delivery, you will be soaking up all the warmth and tranquillity of your dreamy new retreat in no time.
Wardrobes for Every Corner, Style, and Budget
If your bedroom seems to be bursting at the seams like so many other Kiwi homes, chances are your wardrobe is overflowing, too, and yep! We know how overwhelming that can feel. It may be that life is getting away from you, and organisation has become a long-forgotten but fond memory, compounded by limited space. Add in mismatched storage, and suddenly your bedroom feels like a sanctuary and more like a second-hand shop gone rogue. There’s good news, though: with a little wardrobe decluttering and organisation, we can remedy all your wardrobe woes. When you choose one that fits your space, suits your aesthetic and your lifestyle, things get a whole lot sweeter. Let’s get cracking. Decluttering Your Wardrobe for a Fresh Start First things first. Decluttering. It’s time to reach for the depths of your current wardrobe and reassess if your Year 12 end-of-school outfit is really worth holding onto. That, and that plethora of things you *kind of* like, but when it comes down to it, you’d never actually reach for to wear. That’s why it’s time to gameify this situation. Linspire Grace Sliding Door Wardrobe, 120cm Linspire Stele 2-Door Wardrobe with Drawers How to Declutter Your Wardrobe – Quick Step-by-step method to clear and reset your wardrobe space. The first step in how to declutter your wardrobe 101 is to play a lil’ game called ‘keep, donate or sell’. So, go ahead and clear out everything in your wardrobe and pile it up on your bed for sorting. Make some space on the floor too, or bring in three chairs to act as clothes horses. Hot tip: If you’re a chronic procrastinator when it comes to decisions, try setting a timer for 20 minutes. A little deadline pressure can work wonders. Now it’s time to get brutally honest about what you will and won’t wear. Hit that timer and create ‘keep’, ‘donate’ and ‘sell’ piles. If spending time selling stuff just isn’t your thing, then make it ‘keep’, ‘donate’, and ‘toss’. Either way, it’s time to shake things up. Because just around the corner, your dream new wardrobe, wardrobe organisers and other bedroom storage pieces await, and when they arrive, you don’t want to stuff them silly with old junk you never wear. If this method is too brutal for you and you’re still pondering how to declutter your wardrobe, try the hanger trick, where you hang all your clothes on hangers in the reverse direction. Turn the hangers in the forward direction only after you actually wear the item on them. Set a timeframe (maybe a couple of months or a season). When you check in again, donate, sell or toss the clothes you haven’t touched. To avoid your wardrobe getting engulfed again and having to redo this whole process, consider making seasonal rotation your thing. Come summer or winter, store your out-of-season clothes in your bedroom storage. Choosing the Right Wardrobe for Your Space Once you have your newly-culled stash of clothes (only those shiny favourites remain), it’s time to go wardrobe shopping. No, not for more clothes. For an actual wardrobe. Here’s what you need to think about for that no-regrets wardrobe deal snatch. Sliding Door vs Hinged Door Wardrobes So now, what will it be? A wardrobe with a sliding door (for no swing-out door calamities) that obscures half the wardrobe at a time? Or maybe one with hinged doors that swing open (if you have the space) and let you take in the full view of your clothing landscape in one go? Yes, there are pros and cons to each, but think about your available space. Those sliding door beauties are great for tiny spaces (where hinged doors may mess with your bedroom flow), and hinged door wardrobes are best for bedrooms with extra space, where they can swing out without getting in your way. Linspire Grace Sliding Door Wardrobe, 180cm Linspire Stele 5-Door Wardrobe with Drawers How to Measure a Wardrobe Here’s where the tape measure will be your bestie. When deciding how big your wardrobe should be, first measure out the available space. Allow for some extra width if your wardrobe has hinged doors. If the wardrobe space is right beside a wall, allow a bit of additional room. You wouldn’t want the door hitting the wall each time you reach for your jeans (damaging your wardrobe door and your wall). Height is another thing to measure. Ceiling heights come in tall or short sizes, and so do wardrobes. So, pick a wardrobe that has enough height without gouging into your ceiling (and your bond deposit). Space-Saving Wardrobes for Small Bedrooms No matter how small your bedroom is, there’s a small-space wardrobe solution to keep things tidy and organised. As mentioned before, you want to choose designs with sliding doors to keep things contained, go for compact widths and amp up the height for maximum storage. For this, wardrobes with top cabinets, like the Linspire Grace Sliding Door with Top Cabinet (1.6m), may be worth adding to the top of your list. You’ve just gotta do what you can to maximise that usable space. Linspire Grace Sliding Door Wardrobe with Top Cabinet, 160cm Linspire Fresko Wardrobes with 2 Doors + 2 Drawers, 80cm Big, Beautiful Wardrobes for Larger Rooms If you have more (spatial) breathing room in your bedroom, you can go all out with multi-door wardrobes that include drawers, shelves and loads of storage. What a boon to have the space to organise yourself like a boss. How Much Wardrobe Space Do You Need? How big should your wardrobe really be? Let’s get realistic about how much wardrobe space you really need. If you and your partner are true fashionistas who need 47 pairs of jeans and at least 61 jumpers, forego some bedroom space and get the ultimate organisation station, just like the Linspire Serene 5-Door Wardrobe with Drawers. If, despite having lots of room, minimalism is your vibe, a compact wardrobe like the Linspire Stele 2-Door Wardrobe with Shelf could be more your thing. It’ll help you on your quest to embrace the mantra of ‘less is more’. Linspire Serene 5-Door Wardrobe with Drawers Linspire Haven 5-Door Wardrobe Making the Most of Your Wardrobe Interior Big or small, the next important step after nabbing your perfect wardrobe is to make the most of its interior. Giving everything its own place (like hats, shoes, coats, underwear and jewellery) right off the bat will help you keep it tidy. And options? Oh, there are so many options to do this. We’re talking shelves, hanging rails, drawers, baskets and all sorts of organisers. There’s even the double-level hanging option to make sure you make the most of every square centimetre of that hanging space. How to Organise Wardrobe Shelves The golden rule of shelf organisation? Grouping is where it’s at. You don’t want a treasure hunt in your own wardrobe just to find your favourite pyjamas. Save yourself from a chaotic scramble. Give your underwear and sleepwear their own neighbouring shelves, and group any other clothes that go together. Keep it together and you’ll keep it classy. How to Fold Clothes to Save Space in a Wardrobe: Marie Kondo Style Rather than piling your T-shirts up on top of each other, do the Marie Kondo method and roll them up. Then stack them vertically. This way, you’ll see the whole lie of the (T-shirt) land from above. The same goes for underwear. And if you want to use up every bit of hanging space efficiently, look for a wardrobe with double-level hanging, like the Linspire Stele Wardrobe with Double Level Hanging (in either the 2-door or 5-door version). Linspire Stele 2-Door Wardrobe with Double Level Hanging Linspire Stele 5-Door Wardrobe with Double Level Hanging Wardrobe Styling Ideas for a Bedroom Upgrade It’s now time to talk about styling your wardrobe. There are plenty of ways to zhoozh it up, like using matching hangers, coordinating colours, and even using it to display decorative items. What to Put on Top of a Wardrobe As for the cherry on top (of the wardrobe), add a touch of nature with low-maintenance plants that hang down, like pothos or ferns. Lighting is another great idea for the top of your wardrobe. I’ll give that soft, ambient light vibe. It also helps you see what you’re actually doing when you’re picking your outfit! Alternatively, just put some nice decorative items up there that match your (and your bedroom’s) vibe. Linspire Serene 4-Door Wardrobe with Drawers Linspire Grace Sliding Door Wardrobe, 180cm Easy Solutions for Common Wardrobe Issues How to Get Rid of Moisture in a Wardrobe If your wardrobe is starting to feel like a tropical rainforest, it’s time to take action. Wondering how to get rid of moisture in your wardrobe? Firstly, make sure your clothes are always as dry as your sense of humour before you stash them away. If you’re already dealing with a little moisture mishap, just swing open those wardrobe doors and let your clothes breathe. Let’s be real, stuffing your closet is a rookie move. Give your clothes some space so any moisture has a chance to evaporate. Bring in some moisture absorbers, too. Keep it dry, keep it fresh, and your wardrobe will thank you. Quick Fixes for Wobbly or Sticking Wardrobe Doors If your wardrobe is wobbling like it's had one too many at the party, fear not. There’s no need to despair, wondering how to strengthen a wobbly wardrobe. There are fixes galore. First off, let’s talk braces. They’ll keep your wardrobe stable as a rock. If those doors are putting up a fight each time you use them, maybe it’s time to adjust the hinges. Make them a little tighter (if the door’s loose) or loosen them up (if the door closes stiffly), and don’t forget about the tracks. A little lubrication will go a long way. Check the tracks Adjust the hinges Your Perfect Wardrobe Awaits Now that you’re a wardrobe wizard, it’s time to flex those shopping muscles. Wondering where to snag the best wardrobes and other bedroom furniture NZ has to offer? Look no further than Urban Sales. It’s your one-stop shop for all things fabulous and functional.

Hallway Styling & Storage Ideas for a Smart, Welcoming Entry
Let’s talk about hallways and entryways, those sneaky little spaces that almost always end up being the black hole of our homes. You know, where shoes go to die and bags hang like they’re setting up camp for a long stay? It’s a tale as old as time. Research into Kiwi homes shows that these areas are pretty much the forgotten corners of our abodes. But fear not! We're here to help you transform that neglected hallway into a functional masterpiece. No hard hats or sledgehammers required. Imagine stepping into your home and being greeted not by a chaotic mess, but by a space that beckons, ‘welcome’. Organisation with hallway furniture can be done with clever shoe storage, cute decor that reflects your personality, or just creating a nice place to hang your coat without worrying about it becoming part of the hot mess around you. Even a little narrow hallway table can make a big impact. In this blog, we’ve got all the tips you need. So grab a cuppa, settle in, and let’s tackle the hallway issue once and for all, without breaking a sweat (or your bank account). What’s the Best Way to Clear the Shoe Pile in the Hallway? Ah, shoes. They’re our obsession, but also the ultimate hallway troublemakers. It’s like they throw a party right by the front door and forget to clean up afterwards. To keep that chaos under control, closed shoe cabinets are your best bet. They work like magic. Poof! Instant declutter. Now, let's chat about hallway sizes. Are we talking thin and narrow, or grand and spacious? That'll determine your shoe storage game plan. If you’re trying to decorate a long, narrow hallway and only have a wee bit of space, something like the Urban Sales Solidwood Bailey Shoe Cabinet could be a lifesaver. It’s compact but still packs a punch in the style arena. If you have some hallway breathing room, on the other hand, the Linspire Miro Shoe Cabinet at 1.2 meters is like a shoe palace. It can tuck away everyone’s sneakers and keep your hallway looking as neat as a pin. No more tripping over shoes every time you walk in! Game changer, right? Linspire Miro Shoe Cabinet, 120cm, White Linspire Miro Shoe Cabinet, Small, White Solidwood Calamo Rattan Shoe Cabinet 68cm Loft Ensio Shoe Cabinet with 3 compartments Storage Pieces That Do a Bit of Everything When it comes to smaller spaces, multitasking is key, just like that one friend who can cook, dance, and tell jokes all at once. Enter the world of multi-functional storage furniture. A console table with drawers or a hallway cabinet with a flat top that’s primed for styling is your wizard friend. You can stash your essentials away and still have room to showcase your latest plant obsession or that quirky sculpture. Just remember to pick something that vibes with your home’s overall style. It's like choosing accessories for your outfit. Nobody wants to clash. Match the wood type with what's already hanging out in the rest of your home. We’re going for cohesion here. Loft Japandi Console Table Linspire Miro Drawer Shoe Cabinet, White Look Up for Extra Entryway Storage Even if your hallway is as tiny as a broom closet, there's always a chance to make the most out of that vertical space. Wall hooks and clothes racks will keep your coats and hats off the floor. That’s how you get your hallway looking like the ‘after’ shot in the ‘before and after’ section of a home decor magazine. Floating shelves in the hallway are great for small items (like keys), and tall hallway cabinets can be your secret weapon for hidden storage. Using vertical space is like finding a hidden treasure. You’ll be thanking yourself later when you no longer have to play hopscotch every time you come home. Create a Grab-and-Go Spot Keeping your hallway organised is like trying to keep a cat off a counter. It's just not gonna happen unless you make it super easy for everyone involved. That’s why you need to whip up a ‘drop zone’ station right by the door. Think of it as your personal command centre for your everyday essentials. We’re talking about chic-looking baskets, hallway tables or shoe cabinets that beckon, ‘throw those shoes in here’, strategically-positioned trays for keys that assure you they’ll always be there, and hooks for bags that are virtually waving a welcome home flag. This setup can seriously save your mornings from turning into a scavenger hunt, and it keeps your floor clear of the trip hazards, too. Plus, your future self will thank you for not having to dig through a pile of shoes just to find your left sneaker. Your hallway is about to become your happy zone from here on in. Console Table Styling That Widens Up the Hallway You may wonder how to make your narrow hallway look wider and you’ll be glad to know that solutions abound. A console table can become the superstar of your hallway, visually opening it up. Throw in a mirror above it, and it’s like a dance party where light bounces around, making your space feel as roomy as a dancefloor. If you're looking to pull off that vast, open space vibe, stick to lighter colours and minimal décor. Slimline open designs are also the secret sauce for keeping your space looking fresh and spacious. No one wants to feel like the walls are closing in every time they walk through. By opting for slim, open shelves and hallway console tables, you can totally make storage work for you while still giving your eyes a peek at the walls, keeping the maximum width of the room in sight. Linspire Mosaic Bedside Tables Loft Japandi Console Table Warm Up with Natural Finishes Hallways are those sneaky little passageways that bypass most people’s radar when it comes to styling them. It's like they’re the wallflowers of home decor, just standing around while the living room gets all the attention at the party. But why should they be left out? Let’s show our hallways some love and make them feel as fresh and inviting as a zhoozhed up dinner party table. Think of it this way: if the rest of your home has a certain vibe, your hallway can totally reflect that, too. It’s about giving your home a complete and cohesive look. Don’t let it feel like a boring airport terminal when it could be a chic gallery. The best way to decorate a hallway is by tossing in some delightful tactile materials like rattan and natural wood to amp up that welcoming atmosphere. Solidwood Bailey Shoe Cabinet, 48x35CM, Natural Wood Solidwood Calamo Rattan Shoe Cabinet 88cm Add a Rug to Define the Entryway Ready to jazz up your hallway or entryway? Let’s talk about how to cosy it up. As they say, ‘roll out the carpet’ when you want someone to feel extra welcome. A fabulous rug or runner adds a splash of comfort and colour. It keeps your floors safe from the daily hustle and will even help dampen those hard floor sounds when you have to sneak out for a midnight snack. When choosing a rug, think about the vibe of your home. You wouldn’t want a charming vintage rug clashing with your ultra-sleek modern décor (or vice versa), would you? For high-traffic areas, go for tough materials that can handle the foot traffic. Jute is a tough cookie and won’t break the bank. If you’re feeling fancy, wool carpets can give that luxe touch to your entryway, making it feel like a million bucks when you walk in. Just ensure it’s wide and long enough to suit the shape of your hallway. Standard runner widths are normally between 80 cm and 100 cm, so keep it visually proportional. Keep away from the wall edges and let the floor show through a little. A Fresh Take on Modern Style Classic Beauty That Lasts Keep The Hall Styling Simple for High Traffic Areas Even if your home is all about that maximalist vibe, sometimes you need to hit the brakes, especially in the hallway. Clutter can build up quickly, and in the case of a hallway, it creates an obstacle course, obscuring your entry. So, keep it simple and leave your space wide open. Now, when it comes to decorating your hallway with the few items you do choose, let’s play the trio game. Grouping decor in threes is a classic move that balances style and function like a pro juggler at a carnival. It’s all about varied heights, too, so mix these up as well. Picture this: an elevated bowl for your keys, a lovely vase showcasing fresh or dried blooms, and a piece of artwork or cherished photo leaning in for moral support atop your console table. Voilà! You’ve got a hallway that’s not just a passage but an invitation to stop and smell the roses. Small Refreshes to the Hallway to Match The Seasons As the seasons (and years) move forward, you can keep things looking fresh with little changes here and there. We recommend swapping out plants, cushions on the entryway bench and wall art. This way, the big-ticket hallway furniture pieces stay in place to do their heavy lifting, while the changing décor makes things feel shiny and renewed. Light It for a Warm Welcome If your hallway is on the darkish side, it’s time to brighten up the welcome with some hallway lighting. Think table lamps on the hallway console table, beautiful overhead pendants or, for extra narrow spaces, wall sconce lights to light the way.
