Morphology
The meaning 'a matching suite of furniture designed for a bedroom' is directly and compositionally derived from 'bedroom' (a room for sleep) + 'set' (a group of related items). This noun‑noun combination follows a common, cross‑linguistic pattern (e.g., 'bedroom set' ≈ 'juego de dormitorio') and would be readily understood by a B1 learner who knows the constituent words.
Etymology
Bedroom set: The phrase bedroom set comes from furniture sellers who offered a group of 'matching' pieces for a bedroom. Imagine a bed, a dresser and nightstands all the same style — the whole set goes into your bedroom, so today it means a matching group of bedroom furniture.
