How ultra flush doors add luxury to bedroom designs
The flush door has developed rapidly in recent years to become one of the most popular choices for contemporary properties, both commercial and residential. The clean and simple design combines with practical benefits also, to make them an interior feature which hits the spot with many designers and architects. And one of the most common uses of flush doors is in a bedroom, where it is the perfect solution for the peace and tranquillity you need.
What is a flush door?
A flush door is a unique interior feature which can have a transformational influence over your home’s design. In simple terms, flush doors are a specially engineered door frame system which has no surrounding frame or architrave. This means the installed door will sit flush with a wall to provide a clean, flat and smooth surface and an uninterrupted transition between the door and the wall.
Traditional doors will have various raised features, such as a frame and architrave, but also panels and other decorative features, as well as door furniture such as handles and hinges. With flush doors, everything is geared towards integrating the door with the surrounding walls, and hence there is no raised decoration on the door and door furniture is concealed to continue this effective visual theme.
How are flush doors perfect for bedrooms?
When fitting out and decorating a home, the master bedroom is the one room where you might indulge in some luxury features. It is a room where high-end spec is justified because it is your place of solace, peace and comfort. For this reason, the flush door is ideal in terms of visual aesthetics and adding the level of luxury that you need.
Minimalist – Contemporary design is based around the principle of minimalism, whereby features are designed to be simple and functional and to be uncluttered with very little ornamentation. Minimalism helps to create seamless integration between rooms and spaces, because there is so little detail which could clash or look out of place. A minimalist scheme also makes rooms feel spacious and relaxing, and creating an open plan space that is sleek and elegant is exactly what you want for a bedroom.
Clean lines – The lack of decorative detail in flush doors helps to continue a concept of straight lines and clean spaces in a home. This fresh and visually cohesive look is ideal for bedrooms because it eliminates visual clutter and creates a sense of calm and simplicity, which helps people relax.
Space-saving – Flush doors can be installed as pocket doors, which means they disappear from view into a wall cavity when opened, and hence don’t swing into a room or out into a corridor like traditional hinged doors do. This creates valuable space in a home and in terms of a bedroom this means you could split a large bedroom into two smaller bedrooms, but in terms of adding luxury it means you can create a larger space that feels more comfortable and relaxing, or you can add luxury features such as an en-suite, a walk-in wardrobe or extra storage space.
Decoration – To maintain the feeling of integration, flush doors can be decorated to fit in perfectly with an interior scheme. This means they can be painted, wallpapered, clad or veneered to match the surrounding wall, which further supports the door in being concealed and disappearing from view.
Customisation – There are features of flush doors which help to bring some unique design flair or practical touches to a bedroom, and allow you to customise the door to suit your interior scheme. One idea is to have floor-to-ceiling doors, which are a statement feature because of their size and help to apply a sense of luxury purely on the basis of scale, but also help to lift the eye upwards away from messy detail and into the plainer and simpler areas of the room. Another idea is to have concealed door furniture such as push-to-open latches. These are built into a recess in the leading door edge and allow you to open and control the door without any protruding door handles. This further enhances the flawless appeal of using flush door systems in the bedroom.
