Many Americans don’t get enough sleep and often they feel helpless to do anything to change it. A recent article in Architectural Digest, 5 Design Choices for the Best Night’s Sleep, offers some interesting ideas on how simple design choices could improve your nightly sleep.
Melatonin, a hormone that helps regulate sleep, only comes out when it’s dark. As a result, anything you can do to make your bedroom as dark as possible will help with sleep. Half Price Drapes offers a full array of blackout curtains in virtually every color and pattern you can imagine.
 2. Don’t make room for the electronics
There are a lot of arguments that your electronics don’t belong in your bedroom. Do you really like the tangle of cords they require? Not only that, but numerous studies have shown that using electronics in bed – including watching TV and using your phone or a tablet – can have a terrible effect on your ability to sleep.
 3. Find a fan that serves a number of purposes
There are many reasons that a fan can help you sleep better. First, they help prevent the room from being too quite – which can make your hearing more acute and make it more likely that the smallest sound will wake you. Second, they keep them at the right temperature for sleeping. And if you buy a fan that fits in with your décor, it can also be a great design move.
 4. Buy new light bulbs Creating a beautiful bed will help you feel more peaceful in your room – which can help you sleep better. To get the right amount of support, replace your mattress every eight years and replace your pillows at least every two years. Sheets may largely be personal preference, but experts suggest cotton for its breathability.
