10 bedroom design ideas
1. Choose a calming colour palette
Muted tones such as warm white, greige, sage green and dusty blue help a bedroom feel restful. Keep the strongest colour for bedding, a headboard or one wall.
2. Paint the wall behind the bed
A deeper shade like navy, forest green or terracotta behind the bed creates a focal point and makes the room feel cosy without darkening the whole space.
3. Make the bed the hero
An upholstered or wooden headboard, layered pillows and a textured throw instantly make the bed look finished and inviting.
4. Layer warm lighting
Combine a soft ceiling light with bedside lamps or wall sconces. Warm bulbs around 2700K feel relaxing in the evening.
5. Hang curtains high and wide
Mount curtain rails close to the ceiling and beyond the window frame. The room looks taller and the window larger.
6. Add a large rug
A rug that extends at least 50 cm beyond each side of the bed softens the room and is warm underfoot.
7. Plan hidden storage
Under-bed drawers, a storage ottoman and built-in wardrobes keep surfaces clear, which is the quickest way to make a bedroom feel calm.
8. Bring in natural textures
Linen bedding, a wool throw, rattan and light wood add warmth, especially in Modern and Minimalist bedrooms.
9. Use mirrors in small bedrooms
A large mirror opposite or beside a window bounces light around and makes a small bedroom feel more spacious.
10. Style an empty corner
A chair and floor lamp, a tall plant or a slim shelf turns an unused corner into a reading nook. See more in our empty corner ideas.
