We spend around one third of our lives in bed, so it seems only fitting that our bedroom should be as beautiful as possible. So where to start when coming up with bedroom design ideas? The bedroom ideas below offer up expert advice on everything from finding the perfect mattress to choosing the most restful bedroom colour scheme.
Grey walls are so versatile in a bedroom. They will go with any colour of wood, whether it’s highly varnished or distressed like the bedside table and French-style bed in this scheme. Neutral accessories and pastel colours look great and will create a soft, feminine feel.
Create the feel of a stately home with bold yellow walls in a traditional hue. A black and white portrait above the wooden chest plus the marble fireplace lend a grand look to the scheme, too. The abundance of fabric in the floor-to-ceiling curtains makes a luxe finishing touch.
Create a well-rounded scheme by choosing your starting point carefully. The botanical artworks here are the central focus, with the rest of the decor complementing their neutral tones. The green headboard ties in with the botanical theme, adding a hit of nature-inspired colour.
Calm blues can offset the busyness of a lot of pattern, so indulge in some really beautiful prints and turn your bedroom into a walk-in work of art. The wallpaper here is an original William Morris design – a velvet armchair next to the bed is a good match for the colours in the paper and adds an opulent feel.
Frame your bed by hanging a group of prints above your headboard. Keep to the same size and colour of frame for a uniform look. Also consider the style of your pictures – ideally, it’s best to go for works that are similar in theme and colour if you’re hoping to achieve a smart finish.
A feature headboard is a beautiful way to bring colour to the bedroom. This impactful design extends either side of the bed, making a smart backdrop for tables and lighting. while its tones are echoed in a sumptuous mix of linen, velvet and mohair.
Blend spicy cinnamon shades with soft blues for a restful retreat. A naive floral on the wall sets the scene for a folky mix of woodland motifs, embroidery, weaves and knits. Furniture has been kept simple so that the prints can be the centre of attention.
Turn your bed into a focal point with a tweed fabric. After all, what could be more appropriate for a non-city dwelling than this hardy fabric with country appeal? Splashes of red are used to add extra warmth and are found in a multitude of patterns around the room.
With a beautiful bed like this, a bedroom needs little more to turn it into a luxurious haven. A large glass chandelier adds to the decadent feel and harks back to an era gone by. Hanging on the wall is a pretty twig wreath, which gives a contemporary touch.
Create a dreamy bedroom scheme with a trompe l’oeil bookcase wallpaper. Not much more is needed in this space – a white bed and bed linen keep the look simple but sleek. Monochrome cushions tone with the wallpaper and add interest to the foreground.
