Ergonomics
A bed should be a place of peace and rest. Pay attention to the layout of the bedroom furniture as well as to the choice of mattress and base.
The position of the bed depends on the the size and disposition of the bedroom. There are many places where the bed could be situated, but avoid placing the bed by a window or by the door. From the psychological point of view it is better to situate the bed along the wall.
The ideal inner width of a bed ranges between 85 and 95 cm, but there are also beds 80 cm wide. The height of the bed is between 42 and 45 cm; for the elderly it can be elevated up to 50 or 60 cm.
There should be a free area around the bed at least 60 cm so that you can access the bed easily while tidying and changing the bed linen.
