Time to sleep

What's unwelcome for some, a luxury to others and a necessity for all? Sleep, of course! Without it we just can't function. But what does it take to create the ultimate slumber zone? Take a look at our round-up of the six essentials for a better night's sleep.

There's nothing like a good sleep to set you up for the day. According to the most recent IKEA Life at Home Report, for many of us, getting a good sleep (or even a nap) is vital for our wellbeing. The key ingredients for good rest are darkness, comfort and most important, the right temperature. With the help of a few affordable solutions, you can create the sleep sanctuary of your dreams that will have you hitting the snooze button.

Darkness rules

Shut out the light

Room-darkening curtains not only block out the world outside when you crave privacy, but also create instant darkness when you need to grab forty winks.

Create a blind spot

Layered window treatments elevate the style of a room and offer even more light control – a must for light-sensitive sleepers. Blackout blinds keep out daylight and bright city lights, while sheer or thicker curtains add texture and shade from the sun.

Quiet please!

Sound asleep

It's not always easy to find peace and quiet when it's time for a snooze. When you can't find the silence you need, soothing sounds or relaxing music are great ways to block out annoying sounds, not to mention aid relaxation. The SYMFONISK WiFi bookshelf speaker allows you to stream your favourite sounds from your bedside and also makes a great shelf for bedtime reading!

Air quality matters

A breath of fresh air

Did you know that good air quality can lead to better sleep? Air purifiers clean indoor air, filtering out allergens, pollutants and pollen particles, that help you to breathe easier.

Just the right room temperature

Not too hot, not too cold

According to experts, the perfect sleep temperature is between 13 and 20°C. Hot summer nights can have us tossing and turning, but it’s hard to fall asleep if the room is too cold. Temperature control duvets and mattresses can help create just the right sleeping temperature.

Comfort counts

Just a few more minutes

The right mattress can make or break a good sleep. A firm mattress offers even support, which is good for back sleepers. Side sleepers however, might find a mattress with comfort zones that allow shoulders and hips to sink in while supporting the spine the perfect base.

Rest your weary head

Pillows play an equally important supporting role, and it's not just about firmness or plumpness, but also the filling. From feathers to foam, high to low, a good pillow or two is the perfect bedtime companion.

Keep it tidy

Decluttering dreams

What's that dark figure hiding in the corner? Or that large strange lump lurking on the floor? Piles of clothes can be a real nightmare, and according to the IKEA Life At Home Report, clutter is something thing that keeps us awake at night.

Under beds, over wardrobes and behind closed doors, we have plenty of decluttering solutions to keep bedrooms tidy and bogeyman free.

Your space, your stuff

Privacy is important, especially for room sharers. The PLATSA bed frame offers plenty of clutter-busting storage, as well as a subtle room divider all in one – perfect for small bedrooms or open-plan sleep spaces.
