It can be made to express a feeling of spaciousness and com fort U you will keep in mind some of the principles that dec orators and designers follow when faced with a similar dec orating problem. Furniture manufacturers have come to your aid by producing lightly scaled furniture pieces designed for today's smaller rooms. Use proportioned pieces, pushing them against the wall whenever possible, and you'U find the arrangement contributes much to the illusion of space and openness. An imaginative use of wall decorations, colors, and curtains will further help increase the room's apparent size. Size Room Up The first step in any decorat ing plan is to size up your room to insure a pleasing furniture ar rangement and to avoid buying pieces that are not right for room proportions. It's a good idea to draw the floor plan to scale on graph paper, indicating the windows and doors. Use cut outs for your furniture and shift them about until you find the best arrangement. This beats shifting heavy furniture. If you take special care in ar ranging your furniture, you'll find you can stretch space and enjoy comfortable, attractive surroundings. ' Always keep in mind that your primary purpose is to provide a refuge for restful sleep. To do this your bed must be laree enough for comfortable relaxa tion. Depending upon your per sonal preferences and on the effectiveness of your planning, there is a variety of mattresses from which to choose the new king or queen sizes, separate twin beds, or the popular swing away twins that attach to a king sized headboard. A supersize mattress will add only about six inches to the length of your bed and less than two feet to the width an insig nificant difference in floor space when measured against the in crease in comfort and rest you will enjoy. The improved qual ity of new cotton-inncrspring mattresses adds to the life and comfort of supersize bedding. A king size bed calls for about 11 feet of unbroken wall space. This allows for night stands on either side. Twin beds with night stand in between take nine feet, the same amount of wall space required by the obsolete double bed with night stands on each side. If you have 155 square feet of floor space in your bedroom, you can fit in twin beds, two chests, a dresing table, and a lounge chair. You can substitute a king size bed, eliminate chest, and still enjoy the spa cious retreat you want. Whenever you buv an extra length or extra-width bed, you must also remember to get the best quality. The extra size re quires adequate strength and support, and sound workmanship and materials. Most king size mattresses are of cotton inner spring construction, according to government surveys, and are preferred by nine out of 10 king sized buyers.
