Sex room designer details kinky requests from ‘dungeon beds’ to ‘potty chairs’

What if your tastes are less Raymour and Flanigan and more “Splay more and flogging ‘Em”?

Interior designer and star of Netflix’s new series “How to Build a Sex Room” Melanie Rose has heard it all.

“Dungeon beds, potty chairs, St. Andrew’s crosses, spanking benches, stockades. Numerous amounts of vibrators and dildos and butt plugs and c–k rings, it’s a wide gamut, it’s all across the board,” she tells Page Six of just some of the requests she’s gotten from her kinky clients over the years.

The English-born designer, a sort of Mary Poppins-esque proponent for butt plugs if you will, had been an interior designer for 20 years before a client inquired about a sex room.

“I thought, ‘Why not?’” she tells us, adding that she wanted to change the perception of sex rooms, which are often thought to be “dirty and disgusting.”

“They can be beautiful, they can be luxurious and they can be high end,” she says.

In the series — which premieres on the streaming service on Friday, July 8 — Rose talks to couples about their sex lives and fantasies and then builds them their own dream sex rooms in their homes.

“I need them to be open to me and explain to me about their own personal sex lives… sex together or if it’s including other people,” Rose says. “So I really need to find out what their sex life is like if there’s any problems or what they want to have a sex room for. Do they want it as an experience? Do they want it as maybe a fantasy room? So, you know, I get into the nitty-gritty questions.”

Rose is hoping that the series will encourage couples to open up to their partners about their desires. She stresses that you don’t need a separate room to improve your sex life.

“Have a conversation about what you want in your sex life and how you want to improve it and start (with) very little by perhaps bringing adult toys into the bedroom,” she advises. “I think that’s one of the big things. Sticking points for me is that people are like, ‘No, no, no, my sex life is perfect. I don’t need a sex toy in my room,’ because they feel that it’s shameful and they feel that they’re going to be judged. No, we’ve been given beautiful bodies to go out and experiment with some toys.

“It’s okay to talk about sex,” she adds, “If you want a sex room, go ahead. And, you know, look, if you want to be sexual don’t be ashamed by saying that.

“If you want to try new things, new experiences, new fantasies … Again, don’t be ashamed to try to talk about it.”
