A glass wall partition separating the bedroom and home office

post

When combining different functionalities in one room, a glass wall partition is a perfect way to separate the functional areas from each other, while still ensuring natural light to flow throughout the space.

While glass partition walls are often used in small studio homes to create the impression of different rooms, they can also be used to divide a room into smaller areas which each serve a different functionality, just like in this beautiful bedroom.

This beautiful bedroom has been divided into two main functional areas. The side of the bedroom by the window contains the bed and a big wardrobe, and the glass wall transforms the floor plan into a visually smaller bedroom. On the other side of the glass partition, however, you can find a home office, which is nicely separated from the rest of the room.

The light-soaped oak wood flooring combined with the sheer white curtains by the window and the white and pink bedding make for a light base palette, which has been contrasted nicely by the eye-catching black metal frame of the glass wall.

The bedroom walls have been painted in a subtle light gray color with a warm undertone, which gives the room a warm base palette that is accentuated by the peachy tones in the duvet cover and the warm area rug behind the bed.

Behind the glass: a pink home office

The other side of the glass wall partition is turned into a home office area with a spacious desk and at the same time, it functions as additional storage for the bedroom. The walls of the home office section have been painted pink, which along with the use of the glass wall, really sets this section apart and visually separates it from the other side of the room.

The bold paint color on the wall is toned down by a neutral color palette in the desk and wooden chair and the accessories and table lamp have all been picked out in a neutral color palette as well.

The mirror by the door reflects the other side of the room, yet it also reflects some of the daylight coming through the windows on the other side. Even though the glass partition ensures daylight can flow freely, this is a nice touch to make sure enough light reaches this home office spot that is placed behind the big wardrobe module.

18 Bedrooms with a greige paint color that will make you want to whip out your paintbrush

post

Greige paint colors are a perfect choice for a calm and tranquil look in the bedroom. Greige, a.k.a gray-beige is a very warm gray that can be perceived as beige depending on the warmth of the natural light coming into a room.

Greige is a neutral wall color that is neither too warm nor too cold, which makes it easy to combine with other colors in your bedroom decor. It’s a great wall color choice for a neutral look that has a little something more than just off-white walls and greige paint colors have been increasingly popular over the past few years exactly for this reason.

Have a look at the inspiring greige bedrooms in the list below and find ideas on how to combine this trendy wall color with the right accessories and soft furnishings. At the bottom of this article, you can find the best greige paint colors to try out a swatch from on your walls.

A greige wall color, white trim, and black accent wall lamp

The bedroom in this beautiful turn-of-the-century apartment in Sweden has a beautiful shade of greige on the walls, which makes the white trim, frames around the windows and the light hardwood flooring stand out in a nice way.

The wardrobe is hidden behind a beige linen curtain, which is slightly warmer than the wall color and both the rice paper pendant light and the black metal wall lamp stand out nicely against this beautiful wall color. As a finishing touch, the warm wood of the bentwood chairs and the bench behind the bed bring out the warm undertones in the paint color.

Greige paint colors on the walls and wardrobe

Both the walls and the wardrobe have been painted in a warm tone of greige in this bedroom. The white floorboards and white ceilings really stand out against this wall color and since the wardrobe doesn’t continue all the way up to the ceiling, the room looks more spacious.

The greige paint color is lightened up by the white wall lamps, white chequered bedding, wall art, and the white Eos feather lamp by Umage. The pale oak bedside tables are attached to the wall for an integrated look and they bring out the warm undertones in the wall color.

A darker shade of greige adds so much character to this bedroom with white hardwood flooring. The window frame and heating element have been kept white, along with the ceiling, two elements that really stand out in this room.

The door towards the walk-in closet as well as the custom-built wardrobe have been painted in the same color as the wall for a tone-on-tone effect and the burgundy bedsheets really bring out the warm undertones in the paint color.

The light greige color on these bedroom walls is light and elegant and paired up with a light color palette in the textiles and light fixtures for a monotone effect that matches the small size of this space perfectly.

The deeper shade of greige on the walls in this bedroom results in a moody effect that is enhanced by the deep color palette in the artwork, the honey-colored velvet headboard, and the black wood bench behind the bed.

The general moody vibe in this room has been lightened by the sheer white linen curtains in front of the windows, the white bedding, and the light area rug underneath the bed.

This bedroom has such a simple, effortless, and elegant look. The greige wall color has yellow undertones and makes the white hardwood flooring and white trim stand out in a nice way. The white also comes back in the sheer curtains, the bedding, wall lamps, and the bedside tables.

While the whites light up the palette in a nice way, the subtle beige throw blanket and the pale oak J39 chair in the corner add a bit of warmth to the palette.

A greige wall to bring out the crown molding on the ceiling

When you have such beautiful crown molding in your bedroom, you better highlight it and an easy way to do this is to select a wall color that is darker than the color of the trim just like in the case of this beautiful turn-of-the-century bedroom.

The interior of the bedroom is kept simple, with a fabric headboard, fabric pendant light, and a large area rug underneath the bed to add lots of texture to the space.

Some of the best greige paint colors to try out paint samples from

Below you can find a selection of my favorite greige paint colors. They include warmer and cooler shades and lighter or darker variants.

Since greige is quite a tricky color to get right and the undertones that show will highly depend on the kind of daylight a room gets, I always recommend trying out paint swatches first and leaving them for a while so you can take a look at the paint color at different times during the day.

18 built-in wardrobe ideas around a bed

post

Built-in wardrobes will always have a more finished result, which is especially useful when you don’t have a walk-in closet but have to use the bedroom space for both sleeping and storage space.

When you are especially tight on space, or when you want to use your bedroom for other functionalities like a home office or seating area, building your fitted wardrobe around the bed can be a great way of combining functionalities and saving precious floor space which can then be used for a dressing table, desk, or lounge chair.

Blue fitted wardrobes around the bed

This beautiful bedroom with historic details is painted white entirely, which makes the light blue fitted wardrobe around the bed stand out as the focal point and the main feature in the room.

The wardrobe is built with two main modules on each side of the bed, and hanging cabinets above the bed itself, resulting in a niche space for the bed which has been decorated with two simple black wall lamps.

The very top of the fitted wardrobe doesn’t reach all the way to the ceiling to not obstruct the view of the beautiful crown molding in this master bedroom.

Built-in wardrobes in a small bedroom

A small bedroom like this one can benefit so much from around-the-bed wardrobes as there is almost no other way around fitting both the bed and storage space on such a small surface.

In this tiny bedroom, the built-in wardrobes have been constructed above and beside the bed, leaving a space against the wall for a small bed. This result is clearly the work of a professional as there were some uneven wall surfaces to overcome as well.

The wardrobe modules have been painted in the same color as the walls for an integrated effect and the niche space for the bed is the perfect place for an art print in the same color.

Side and above the bed wardrobes in a hotel-style bedroom

Since this bedroom is long and narrow, it would have been difficult to fit large wardrobes to fit all the clothes away from the bed. This bespoke solution with double-door wardrobes on each side of the bed connected with upper cabinets above the bed combines both functionalities in an optimal way.

The niche space created by the wardrobes is filled with beautiful black wall lamps that are attached to the sides of the main wardrobe modules. The overall look of this bedroom has a hotel look and feel because of the niche space, TV on the wall, and the tone-on-tone color palette.

Storage space on both sides of the bed for an integrated effect

While some of the wardrobe solutions in this list require a carpenter, you can achieve a very integrated effect with wardrobes on each side of the bed as well just like in this example.

This will create a niche space in between them that can be filled with wall sconces, a headboard, and artwork for an impressive effect in the bedroom.

This fully customized wardrobe above the bed has been there for a while judging from its traditional style. The white paint on the wardrobes matches the door and window frames and contrasts nicely with the beige paint color with red undertones.

Wall lamps have been attached on each side of the wardrobes and an art print in the middle adds the perfect decor to this gorgeous bedroom. The wall panels that connect the wardrobes to the wall make sure there are no gaps and they are utilized with wall hooks on each side.

Dark fitted wardrobes on each side of the bed create a niche

The two wardrobes on either side of the bed in this bedroom have been connected by a wood board on the very top, which gives them a seamless and integrated look. The floating shelf in the niche space is perfect to store books and to display a single piece of art.

The dark grey color on the wardrobes and the even darker grey on the wall give this space a modern look that is contrasted by the crisp white linen bedsheets.

Tone-on-tone bespoke fitted wardrobes with built-in nightstands

The bespoke wardrobes around the bed in this asymmetric bedroom are built wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling which gives them a very integrated look that has been enhanced even more by matching the wall color to the color on the wardrobes.

This bespoke solution has built-in shelves inside the bedroom niche, which serve as a nightstand on either side.

Plain doors and over bed wardrobes combined into a full storage wall

These bespoke wardrobes have been built around both the bed and the doorway, transforming the entire wall up to the ceiling into a storage space with a ladder rail that can be used to reach the upper cabinets.

The light base color palette in the room has been enhanced by a dark accent wall in the niche space behind the bed, highlighting the beautiful custom work. Overhead lighting has even been integrated into the upper wardrobe modules above the bed, which function as reading lights.

via Historiska Hem

Fitted wardrobes with an integrated desk

This wardrobe solution in mustard yellow consists of two main wardrobe modules on each side of the bed, connected with indented upper modules for an interesting look.

The niche space behind the bed has been filled with a custom fabric headboard filling the gap between the wardrobes exactly and giving the bed a luxurious look and feel.

The space in between the window and the wardrobe is filled with a desk combined with floating shelves, which is an easy way to integrate a small home office.

via Stadshem

Light grey fitted wardrobes beside and above the bed to optimize limited space

This simple light grey wardrobe is a simple U-shape design that can be done the DIY way out of Ikea kitchen modules. Combine tall modules with wall-hung cupboards above the bed and instead of just two tall wardrobes, you create a full row of storage for things you use less often like summer clothes or luggage pieces.

Two wardrobes on each side of the bed for a bespoke effect

I you want to create a beautiful niche space, you can place two tall wardrobe modules on each side of the bed. For a look that is more finished, you can create a custom headboard in the same color as the wall and this will allow you to use the ledge as a nightstand.

Attach two wall lamps to the sides of both wardrobes and you create a beautiful niche bedroom space with integrated storage.

Custom built-ins with plain doors in an attic room

A slightly awkward space with sloped ceilings will always benefit from a custom wardrobe solution so you can integrate the modules seamlessly with the ceiling.

This bespoke solution includes ample storage opportunity, floating shelves above the bed, and the fitted wardrobes even continue over into lower storage modules on the side of the room.

Dark blue built-in wardrobes create a cozy bed niche with bookshelves

This seamless and bespoke solution in dark blue has built-in shelves on either side of the bed, which is such an elegant way of offering small storage space next to the bed. These shelf modules however also create a slight gap between the tall fitted wardrobes and the bed so it’s easier to open the doors.

The wall behind the bed has been painted in the same dark blue color as the built-in wardrobes and the blue wall lamps finish this inspiring solution off perfectly.

29 Sage green bedroom ideas for a fresh yet serene effect

post

Sage-green paint colors have a calming and serene effect on any interior setting. This makes them a perfect color choice for bedrooms especially, where we go to sleep, rest, or wind down.

A sage-green bedroom wall color comes in a variety of different shades, tones, and hues. Depending on the orientation of the room, you might want to try out a paint color with more warm or cool undertones.

In the list below, I have gathered the most inspiring sage-green bedroom ideas. Each of the rooms has a different combination and style of textiles and accessories. I’m sure this will allow you to get ideas on how to decorate your bedroom.

The throw blanket seems to have a very similar tone to the walls, for a beautiful tone-on-tone effect. For a fresh touch, the green shades come back in the big plant next to the window.

Four cool butterfly art prints decorate the wall above the bed and finish this look off in such an elegant way.

A tiny bedroom with green paint on both walls and ceiling

Sage green is a great choice when picking out a color for a very small space. It has a serene effect, is close to nature, and can be light so it can reflect the daylight to make the room look bigger.

To achieve an impressive effect, the wall continues on the ceiling of this bedroom as well. The beiges and caramel tones in the textiles bring out the warm undertones in the paint color.

A sage-green with blue undertones and an impressive gallery wall

This might be one of my favorite modern sage green bedroom ideas. The green paint color has a strong cool undertone that adds a fresh touch to the entire room.

The white ceiling has a small white trim, that comes back in the linen bedding. The gallery wall above the bed enhances this room and it was a great choice to decorate this wall like this.

The playful addition of two guitars on the wall is the sole decoration in this sage-green bedroom. The pastel bedding adds a spring-like appearance to the look. It complements the wood tones of the guitars.

The XL round mirror reflects the room and makes it look bigger.

Sage green with a beautiful mix of artwork and textiles

The deep and soft tones in the art print and textiles add a beautiful contrast to this sage-green bedroom. The white trim on the top adds a certain lightness to the color scheme. The white bedding complements this light touch.

The dark brown artwork pops out against the green bedroom walls. It’s the subtle color combinations that give the space a cozy aesthetic.

This is one of those sage green bedroom ideas where the color completely changes the room. Imagine this space without the sage green paint. It wouldn’t have as much character, wouldn’t it?

The XL fabric pendant lamp is so impressive in the room and gives the modest interior an elegant look.

Extra texture with a limewash paint treatment

This example is a bit less typical among the other sage green bedroom ideas. Yet, it’s very stylish nonetheless. The limewash treatment makes the white crown molding stand out. It also adds an interesting wall texture to the space.

Green-grey with blue undertones and beige textiles

This turn-of-the-century bedroom has a beautiful hue of green paint on the walls. The slight blue undertones bring out the beautiful white crown molding. The other colors in the bedroom are warmer, resulting in a lovely contrast.

Paired with wood tones and a pop of boho

The calming vibe and boho style of this bedroom all start with the color sage green on the walls. The textural fabrics on the bed and lampshade contrast the darker color on the wall.

The white built-in wardrobe has a smooth and finished effect. The white doors create a contrast with the wall color.

The home office corner next to the bedroom doorway adds natural wood tones to the setting. These tones have a warming effect on the bedroom color palette.

A combination of greens and pink tones for a bold and modern effect

Sage green bedrooms usually have a very calming effect. Combine them with other colors on the other end of the color spectrum to achieve a modern appearance.

This modern sage-green bedroom stands out because of the pops of reds among the greens. Additionally, the beautiful green curtains complete the look.

Sage-green bedrooms don’t have to involve painting the walls, you can always opt for a sage-green wallpaper design to spruce up your bedroom walls.

Sage-green paint throughout your home

While often used for its tranquil and calming effects in a bedroom, sage-green is such a versatile color, that it can work well in other rooms in your home. Sage-green kitchen cabinets offer a timeless look that is a bit more unique than a white kitchen for example and the tranquil effect of a sage-green paint color in the living room can offer a soothing and inviting atmosphere.

10 cozy minimalist bedroom ideas

post

When it comes to minimalist interior design, there is a scale ranging from empty and almost clinical spaces to interiors with some points of visual interest that make a room cozy and characterful. While I would still call myself a minimalist, I favor adding a few details and decor pieces to make the interior more personal. You can do so by still maintaining a minimalist interior look.

When it comes to the bedroom though, I like things clean and minimal, without too much fluff. With a few neutral tones in the textiles, accessories, or art prints, you can elevate a minimalist style and make it cozy and inviting.

Below you can find a collection of my favorite minimalist bedroom ideas that I find both cozy and minimal. You can find minimalist bedrooms in all sorts of sizes and shapes in the list.

10 minimalist bedrooms to take inspiration from

A spacious turn-of-the-century bedroom with black accents

Through those beautiful turn-of-the-century doors you can take a peek into this minimalist bedroom with white walls, high ceilings, and an abundance of natural light. The wall behind the bed hides away a walk-in closet and I love the way the white linen bedframe with the crisp bedding (H&M has a great and affordable option*) blends into the space.

The dark color palette in the soft furnishings and accessories adds a lot of power to this minimalist bedroom and the dark tones in the velvet throw pillows* and the velvet bench behind the bed really stand out against all the white.

A minimalist space with a niche bedroom

This serene bedroom with lots of beige tints and white linen bedding* has been fitted inside a small niche space. The natural wood of the peg rail and the beige textiles really warm up the space, while the subtle black accents add character.

A minimalist bedroom with a Japandi vibe

This beautiful bedroom has a slightly awkward layout, but it works well combined with the armchair in front of the window and the home office on the other wall. The beige linen bedding* matches so nicely with the crisp white walls and the paper Formakami lampshade*.

The two white linen bathrobes* on the wall hanging are both a functional and an aesthetical element in the space and the subtle art prints enhance this modest look.

White walls and visual interest in the details

Even though this minimalist bedroom has a lot of details, the base is very simple and consists of white walls, a simple white bed with a headboard, and a white wardrobe. The rustic bench behind the bed and the stool that is used as a bedside table gives the minimalist space a more rustic and laid-back look, which is enhanced by the beige tints in the accessories and the beige waffle throw* on the bed.

A modern bedroom with a classic touch

The low bed design gives this minimalist bedroom a modern look, which has been balanced out by the classic lampshade on the ceiling and the turn-of-the-century details in the space. The sparse furnishings and empty space around the bed make you pay attention to the muted tones in the branch and the art print and the side table on one side of the bed gives the look a modern, asymmetric touch.

A tiny minimalist bedroom with black accents

This tiny bedroom really benefits from a minimalist approach and the fact that the walls have been kept white turns this space into a comfortable bedroom that looks and feels spacious.

The white walls continue in the white linen bedding*, which is enhanced with a black contrasting accent pillow and grey textiles. The wardrobe has been painted black and has become a true focal point in the all-white space.

A minimalist bedroom with a monochromatic palette and lots of textiles

The textiles enhance this minimalist bedroom in such a lovely way and give the space an airy feel. The sheer curtains (find affordable linen curtains here*) on both sides soften out the natural light coming in through the windows, while the mixture of textiles on the bed adds a lot of extra depth and texture to this look. The soft curves of the beautiful black wall lamp and the clean lines of the black bentwood chair add a few contrasting lines to the minimalist feel of this bedroom.

A small minimalist bedroom with white walls

This small minimalist bedroom doesn’t seem to have any direct daylight coming in, which is why an all-white color palette with white wall lamps and white bedding* is a great choice that makes the space look more bright and spacious. This all-white look also has a very minimal effect which has been made interesting with the black throw pillows and the subtle black line art print on the wall.

Light grey walls and white details for a minimal look

The beautiful blue turn-of-the-century doors that come out into this minimalist bedroom are very characterful, especially combined with the warm wood flooring.

To make these beautiful features stand out in the best way, the design of the bedroom has been kept very simple and minimal, with white bedding with a subtle black trim*, a light grey paint color on the wall, and a natural rug that matches the color of the hardwood flooring.

Touches of beige and dark wood for a warm minimalist vibe

Rather than a side table on each side of the bed, this beautiful minimalist bedroom features a small cabinet in a dark wood on each side of the bed, combined with the same gold wall lamp above each.

The beige striped bedding matches the color palette in the art print on the wall and the rice paper shade adds a bit of a Japandi vibe to the space.

While this is definitely the least minimalist bedroom on the list, the minimal color palette and the neutral tones in the textiles, and the gallery wall above the bed have a very minimal look, yet with added character.

How can you create your own minimalist bedroom look?

Remove visual clutter

If you don’t yet have a very minimal look in your space right now, it’s easiest to start with removing things before you start to select decorative items to enhance your minimalist bedroom. Having fewer items in your bedroom altogether will make it easier to keep it clutter free and organized.

Make sure you have ample storage space

A great wardrobe that can hold all your clothes is an essential furniture piece (whether you place it in your bedroom or in a separate room) as it will allow you to keep all items that you don’t want to display organized and out of sight.

Look for a perfect balance of bright whites and neutral colors

White walls are a great and easy start for a simple bedroom design and they give you lots of options to work with a restrained palette, while still creating an interesting look within a minimalist bedroom.

Work with the biggest furniture pieces like the bed and wardrobe in a white or neutral color and finish off with details in subtle tones. You can add simple furniture pieces like bedside tables in black or wood tones and work with the textiles and accessories to create texture and visual points of interest. Remember that it’s easy to switch out a throw pillow, wall hanging, or art print, yet it’s a bit more challenging to change out the furniture in a space.

Before you start working with the accessories, it’s good to decide whether you want to work with dark accents, or warm tones to enhance your minimalist bedroom. Once you decide that you can not go wrong with experimenting until you get the perfect minimalist feel in your bedroom that you are happy with.

A blue bedroom with a shiplap wall

post
a blue bedroom wall combined with a vintage desk, white and light grey bedding and a fresh green plant in the corner. A wardrobe is hidden behind the shiplap wall.

The bedroom in this turn-of-the-century home is quite large, yet has a bit of an awkward layout like it’s often the case in old buildings. The owners of this home separated the bedroom and created a separate area for the wardrobe, which has been hidden behind a shiplap wall.

A blue master bedroom with a home office

The bedroom has been painted in a deep blue color, which contrasts so nicely against the light-soaped hardwood flooring and the white trim on the ceiling and floor. Blue bedrooms are always so characterful and I think they work especially well when combined with green plants (as is the case in this bedroom as well) or with warm wood like that of the vintage desk by the window (a combination also seen in this beautiful bedroom).

The more narrow part of the layout by the window in this blue bedroom has been used for a small home office spot and I think it’s the perfect spot in this charming bedroom as it will get the most daylight.

The blue bedroom walls are combined with light grey textiles on the bed that have a cool undertone and the white nightstands and night lights really pop out from the blue walls. The big green plant in the corner adds a fresh touch to the paint color.

A shiplap wall to create hidden closet space

Behind the shiplap wall, a walk-in closet is hidden, which is quite an elegant solution in this space. The shiplap wall has been painted in the exact color of the wall so it doesn’t stand out too much. Note that the wooden panels don’t go all the way up to the ceiling for a lighter look and a view of the entire ceiling trim in the room, which is one of the beautiful historic features in this space.

Shiplap walls are great for adding texture to a space and are an easy DIY solution to cover a non-bearing wall like in this case. Have a look at this bedroom as well, where the shiplap wall covers a very small closet space.

Other blue bedroom ideas to take inspiration from

Blue is a great color for a master bedroom and it’s a paint color often seen in modern styles of interiors. Go for a darker and deeper blue wall color if you want a dramatic effect, like in this master bedroom. If you want a more subtle effect, lighter blue walls can be your cup of tea. If blue sounds a bit too daring for your bedroom, you can always go bold in the guestroom to give it a try.

Lastly, if you are planning to work with a custom wardrobe solution, it gives you the opportunity to work with the same color on the wooden panels of the wardrobe as on the walls for an elegant tone-on-tone effect, which has been achieved here in this beautiful bedroom. This is a similar effect as on the shiplap wall in this example yet the cabinets are painted rather than the wood panels of the shiplap wall.

38 inspiring blue bedroom ideas

post

Blue is a perfect color choice for a bedroom, as it has a calming effect which is exactly what you need in a space where you mainly go to get a good rest. The color blue comes in a variety of shades and tones and the paint color you should pick depends on the size of the room and the color of the natural light hitting the space.

When you have a large bedroom you can opt to paint your walls blue with a dark shade, while smaller spaces might benefit from a lighter blue paint color.

Below you can find a list of the most beautiful blue bedroom ideas, carefully selected by me. The list includes a variety of bedroom ideas with blue walls in different tints, and tones and combined with different materials in the textiles, art pieces, and furniture pieces.

A muted dark blue combined with white textiles and a gallery wall above the bed

This bedroom features a subtle muted, yet dark tone of blue, which contrasts nicely with the sheer white linen curtains and the light hardwood flooring. The mixture of white and beige bedding softens out the cold blue of the walls and the gallery wall above the bed adds even more character and personality to this space.

Apart from the white tones in the textiles and the art prints popping out against the wall color, the light grey Flowerpot bedside lamps and the white Flos Gatto lamp get a lot of attention against this dark wall color as well.

A teal blue bedroom with a small home office

The blue bedroom walls in this asymmetric space have green undertones, which pair up nicely with the beige and orange tones in the textiles and furniture pieces.

The white wardrobe matches the white crown molding on the ceiling and the white on the door and window frames for a classy look. Next to the wing doors, a small yet smart home office finds its place, featuring warm wood tones that contrast nicely with the cool tones in the paint color.

A muted blue bedroom with blue doors

A muted blue has been used here on all the walls and one of the doors for a cohesive look. The moldings and the other door are kept white for contrast and the blue of the walls comes back in the accessories all over the room.

The rich tones of the art print above the bed both complement and contrast the blue walls at the same time and the lighter tones in the bedding and headboard bring balance to this calm look.

A light blue bedroom combined with beige accent pieces

So far, the blue bedroom ideas in this list were all a bit on the darker side, but you can have a very calming effect with light blue walls as well. This light blue bedroom has a fresh look that has a spacious appearance because of the relatively light wall color.

The white accents in the linen bedding, side table, bentwood chair, ricepaper shade, and area rug enhance the light and fresh look the light blue walls create, while the beige in the art print and the other soft furnishings add a warm touch to the space.

A rich dark blue accent wall

This all-white bedroom features a rich, dark feature blue wall, which creates a beautiful contrast in the space. When you look closely enough, you can see the wall is actually a blue wallpaper or existing wallpaper that has been painted over.

The crisp white linen sheets enhance the contrast in the room even more, while the vintage chairs next to the bed add a lot of character. The black Gubi Bestlite BL6 Wall Lamps finish the look off perfectly and add a lot of dimension above the bed.

A dark teal blue bedroom with beige textiles

I think this is one of the most perfectly balanced blue bedroom ideas you can find. The dark teal wall color brings out the beautiful white trim on the ceiling and the white window frames, while the warm tones in the decorative pillows and the linen curtains warm up the cool tones of the blue bedroom walls.

The camel bedsheets and the beige tones add the final touch to this balanced color scheme and the simple black wall lights add a lovely contrast above the bed.

Pale navy blue paired up with light textiles

The dark, muted navy blue bedroom walls highlight the beautiful crown molding on the ceiling and the overall look of the space has been brightened up with the sheer white linen curtains and the light grey fabric headboard.

The walls in blue pair up perfectly with the warm wood tones in the small furniture pieces and the hardwood flooring. The mixture of white bedding and beige textiles works wonderfully in this space and the single striped throw pillow becomes a subtle eye-catcher on the bed.

A greyish-blue bedroom on a small surface

When you are required to work on a small surface, sometimes you need a bit of a darker color anyways to bring more character to the bedroom scheme. Depending on how the light hits the wall color, this might be more of a grey, yet it’s definitely a grey with cool undertones, which is why this bedroom found its place in the list of blue bedroom ideas.

The small wardrobe has been painted in the same color as the walls, which can be such an upgrade from white furniture pieces when you want to go for an integrated look and feel.

A light blue ceiling in a white bedroom

This might be one of the most uncommon blue bedroom ideas on the list, yet the blue on the ceiling has such an impactful effect on the space. The blue ceiling mimics a blue sky, which gives the otherwise modest interior design a playful touch.

To work with a darker-colored ceiling as your walls, it’s essential that your room has relatively high ceilings so that the space doesn’t feel too cramped. You could even work with a blue wallpapered ceiling to attract even more attention to the height of the room and just like in this example, a beautiful pendant light will finish off the look perfectly.

A deep color blue on walls, windows, and doorframes

This is one of the blue bedroom ideas that have the moodiest effect in the room. Not only did the interior designer select a very dark tone of blue, the entire space including the window and door frames and headboard is painted in the same beautiful blue paint color for a very impressive effect.

The light artwork above the bed, the white ceiling, and the beige bedsheets really stand out against the dark color scheme on the walls and the wing doors that lead up to the bedroom are kept white, which makes it look like they ‘frame’ the dark color palette of the small bedroom.

Grey walls combined with blue curtains and blue decorative pillows

While so far in this list, we’ve seen many blue bedroom ideas with deep blue walls brightened up with lighter elements, a more dramatic look has been achieved in this bedroom, which has a dark color scheme overall.

By using dark blue curtains combined with blue-grey textiles on the bed, a tone-on-tone color scheme is created, which has been contrasted with the beautiful black Mantis BS5 wall lamp to finish off this dramatic look.

A navy blue bedroom with gold and blue accents

The navy blue wall color in this bedroom highlights the white trim, white floorboards, and white ceiling in the space in an elegant way, enhanced by the soft beige curtains that warm up the daylight coming through the white windows.

The white bedding is matched by a white area rug and the throw pillows in muted colors add a tranquil vibe to the space. The blue bedroom walls are enhanced by gold wall lamps and blue accents in the XL art print above the bed.

The home office spot adds a natural element to the space matched by the peg rail on the wall, which complement the warm tones in the hardwood flooring in a lovely way.

A muted royal blue accent wall in an all-white bedroom

An accent wall can be a great solution if you want to make sure your blue bedroom doesn’t become too dark. In this space, the contrast between the blue and white walls has been balanced out by including vintage furniture pieces in warm wood tones.

The beautiful white crown molding on the ceiling stands out against the blue bedroom wall and this effect has been carried over in the selection of the wardrobe as well, which matches the classy white look of the historic architectural details of the space.

A soft, yet fresh look has been achieved in this beautiful space by combining the cool wall color with warm elements. The wing doors leading up to the bedroom are kept bare and in the room itself, you can find a lovely combination of warm wood and beige textiles.

I think this bedroom has so many interesting elements. The vintage shelf combined with the vintage mirror looks amazing, yet comes to life even better because of the deep blue wall color. The bed itself has been made with warm-colored textiles and the walls around the window have been kept white to accentuate the bright daylight coming in.

Fresh blue walls combined with white textiles

This blue bedroom has a very fresh tone of light blue on the walls, which has a wonderful effect on this smaller bedroom space. The off-white linen curtains go wall-to-wall and frame the window in a nice way.

The beige, wood, and blue accents throughout the room add a calm touch to the space and the Cestita lamp by Santa & Cole in the window is the cherry on top of this modest color palette.

A navy blue backdrop

The deep blue accent wall in this bedroom design has been used to accentuate the beautiful old built-in wardrobes next to the window. The contrast between the white and blue paint helps to visually understand the uncommon layout of the room and this contrast has been enhanced by using white wall lamps, bedside tables, and bedsheets.

The white art print and the wall lamps seem to jump out against the dark blue, which is the perfect backdrop for the white bedding and furnishings in this bedroom design.

The green plants add an extra fresh touch to the space, which is lacking in the muted wall color itself and the Japanese lampshade is a true focal point in this modest decor.

A blue wardrobe built around the bed

While most of the blue bedroom ideas on my list include blue walls, in this example, the custom wardrobe solution is the source of blue color in the interior design.

The muted blue wardrobe has been custom-built around the bed for an impressive look in this all-white bedroom. The white bedding, beige curtains, and beige throw blanket add a warm touch to the cool tones of the wardrobe and add a certain balance to the space to make it the perfect room to fall asleep in.

Pale dark blue and calming shades of beige in a guestroom and home office

If blue is too daring for your primary bedroom, it might be a perfect color choice for your guest bedroom instead. A perfect balance has been achieved between the wall color, furniture pieces, and accessories in this bedroom.

I love the way the warm wood of the little desk, the warm textiles of the lounge chair, and the warm elements in the art prints above the bed are the red thread in this interior, which comes to life because of the deep blue backdrop the wall color provides.

A blue color scheme in the walls and wardrobe

A deep blue wall color has been used on both the walls and on the built-in wardrobe in this space, which contrasts so beautifully with the pink linen bedsheets, and the natural materials in the home office area. The white curtains, windows, and flooring lift up the otherwise dark and moody vibe in this room.

A blue bedroom with a shiplap wardrobe

The darker blue shade of the bedroom walls enhances the clean lines of the space and the wardrobe section that has been covered with shiplap. The different patterns and textures in the materials of the space work very nicely together and the blue wall paint ties the look of the space together.

The brighter colors on the bed add texture to the look, while the antique wood desk in front of the window adds a lot of character.

A pastel blue bedroom combined with warm accents

This pastel blue bedroom is the lightest example of the blue bedroom ideas on the list. The light blue wall color adds a subtle yet fresh touch to the space that highlights the white crown molding on the ceiling and the beautiful soap-wash hardwood flooring.

The mixture of textiles on the bed adds a warm touch to the cool tones on the walls and the beige comes back in the area rug and the art pieces on the wall as well.

A teal blue bedroom with a tone-on-tone wardrobe

This bedroom has a beautiful teal wall color, which also comes back on the wardrobe for a tone-on-tone look. The wardrobe doesn’t go all the way up to the ceiling, which has a lighter effect, but the floorboards are extended underneath the wardrobe for an integrated look.

The teal blue wall color is complemented with white bedding and a pale mustard throw blanket on the bed, while the black wall lamps add a lovely contrast to the look.

Blue and white toile in a bedroom with a striking contrast

The contrast between the darker shade of blue paint on the walls and the impressive white toile on the statement lamp works wonderfully in this blue bedroom. The crisp white bedding and the different wood tones work nicely together in this space and the wardrobe has been painted in the same color as the wall for an integrated effect.

The antique desk adds a rustic feel to the bedroom and provides a perfect spot to work from home.

The complementary colors in the artwork match perfectly with the color on the wall in this bedroom, which defines the look of this space. The beige and mustard bedding and the orange and yellow elements on the side table contrast the cool undertones in the wall colors perfectly and the black AJ floor lamp provides the perfect amount of contrast in the interior design.

Different shades of blue in a characterful bedroom with vintage finds

The combination between the inky blue walls and the lighter shade of blue on the custom-built wardrobe in this bedroom works wonderfully together with the white historic fireplace and the crown molding on the ceiling.

The blue velvet headboard complements the blue wall color and the antique bedside tables add a beautiful warm tone to the setting. The mint and teal tones in the home office spot created with antique finds are the finishing touch to this beautiful bedroom in different tins of blue.

A blue color scheme in the wall color and bed textiles

This medium blue bedroom wall color makes the white paint on the ceiling and window frame stand out in a lovely way. The white area rug enhances this effect even more and the wood desk brings in a natural element.

The blue color scheme is continued onto the textiles on the bed, where a blue duvet cover is paired with dark grey and beige tones that also come back in the art print next to the window.

The bed is made with a mixture of white and red tone textiles, which adds a warm note to the cool color palette and the black wall lamps and bedside tables add a beautiful dark touch to the space.

Match your Wardrobe with your Wall Color for a Tone-on-tone Effect

For an integrated effect in your primary bedroom, match the color of your wardrobe with the color of your bedroom walls. Pair with other blue furniture to take this look to the next level. Create a beautiful contrast by selecting white curtains and a white ceiling.

Work with Bold Colors to make your Blue Bedroom Pop

Most of the blue bedroom ideas on this list pair blue wall colors with a natural color scheme to make the blue wall color the focal point in the space. In this beautiful blue bedroom, pops of dark brown and bold colors make an entry, resulting in a unique look.

Work with a Deep Blue Accent Wall for a Bold Effect

Most of the beautiful blue bedroom ideas on the list have all the walls in the same color. You can achieve a bold contrast however by painting just a single wall in a dark blue color and leaving the rest of the space white.

Combine Blue Walls with White Furniture pieces

When you are working with a blue bedroom, you can ensure things don’t get too cool and dark by balancing it out with a mix of warm tones and white furniture pieces. A large white wardrobe and a light headboard will break the big surfaces of painted walls, especially in a bedroom with high ceilings.

Work with Blue Wallpaper for a Romantic Effect

Blue bedroom ideas can look cool and fresh, yet if you want your sleeping space to have a romantic touch, you can combine both worlds by selecting a bedroom wallpaper in blue tones. The white accents in the furniture pieces, lighting, and textiles complement the white elements in the wallpaper for a beautiful complementing effect where blue and white come together.

Cozy bedroom with a grey limewash wall

post
A bedroom with a grey limewash wall, gold wall lamps and a vintage dresser painted white

I think the limewash wall treatment in this bedroom works so nicely with the exposed brick wall next to the bed. The rest of the room is kept white, with white linen curtains* in front of the windows and fresh green plants on the window sill.

The white vintage cupboard, the little side table, the white linen bedsheets* and the brass wall lights really stand out against the grey wall and the dark grey color also comes back in the graphic bedspread on the bed.

15 pink bedroom ideas for an elegant touch

post

I bet when you think about pink bedrooms, your first thought goes to pink little girls rooms. Pink paint tones, however, can have such a subtle and elegant effect in a bedroom and tend to spread warmth through the interior design that looks sophisticated and characterful without being too overpowering.

Whether you work with a feature wall combined with white walls or paint the entire bedroom in a subtle dusty pink, nude pink, or deep pink tone, the effect can be impressive and the soft furnishings can easily be complemented in the same warm color palette for a tone-on-tone effect.

Pale dusty pink walls combined with white and warm tones

This dusty pink bedroom with white ceilings, white floorboards, and hardwood flooring is an example of how a pink bedroom can also be subtle and sophisticated. The bedroom itself is pretty basic, with a low bed, yet the art prints, accessories, and the mixture of linen bedding elevate the look of this bedroom design.

The dusty pink wall color is combined with a terracotta duvet cover and a mixture of beige and white linen textiles on the bed. The black in the wall art adds a bit of contrast to this look and the red and pink tints in the plant on the window sill are a nice touch in this color palette.

Go Paler on the Pink Colour Spectrum for a Subtle Effect

This gorgeous dusty pink bedroom has white-painted hardwood flooring, which accentuates the subtle warmth of the paint colour beautifully. As one of the more subtle of the pink bedroom ideas on this list, the power lies in the combination of beige accessories and the pink fabric curtains in front of the window.

Against these subtle pink walls, the fresh green plants pop out and add a gorgeous contrast to the setting.

Salmon pink walls paired up with natural materials

This salmon-pink bedroom with natural accents and white elements has an airy look that makes this small space special. The salmon pink wall color has a very toned-down look which also comes back on the matching pink custom-built floating shelving behind the bed for a tone-on-tone appearance.

The natural daylight coming through the window is warmed up and softened out by the beige linen blinds which are matched with the fabric pendant lamp and the beige linen bedding and throw blanket on the bed. The natural wood, seagrass, and rattan accessories warm up the pink bedroom walls even more and add a laid-back aesthetic to the space.

A grey going towards the pink color spectrum for a delicate look with turn-of-the-century elements

The wall color in this bedroom lays in between grey and pink on the color spectrum and depending on the angle one is looking at the walls, the undertones might give you a different appearance, which gives this bedroom with historic elements such a sophisticated look. The crown molding, floorboards, ceilings, and door and window frames are all white, which sets the wall color apart from the rest of the bright white surfaces.

The decor of the bedroom has been kept fairly simple, with white linen bedding decorating the bed and black accent pieces in the wall lamps, mirror, and side table adding some contrast to the elegant color scheme of this pink bedroom.

A pale pink bedroom with a wardrobe in the same soft pink color

What strikes me the most in this elegant dusty pink bedroom is the matching pink wardrobe which has been custom-built for this space going the entire length of the room, leaving out a small spot by the window for a small home office spot.

The dusty pink wall color combines wonderfully with the hardwood flooring, the warm wood of the vintage office, and the terracotta throw blanket on the bed.

The light pink color in this bedroom really draws attention to the beautiful white crown molding on the ceilings. The white elements come back in the dressing table, white bedding, and the off-white area rug for an elegant look that feels light.

A soft pink accent wall combined with a peach duvet cover

The soft pink accent wall transforms this bedroom into a warm space with a soft glow. The wall color has been paired up nicely with a peach duvet cover, a cognac leather chair next to the bed, and warm beige tones in the art print.

The natural light gets a soft glow through those light beige curtains and the other walls in this bedroom have been kept white for a lighter effect.

Use large pink pillows to create a pink headboard of sorts that complements the wall color in the background. Add some rose gold accessories to give the space a luxurious touch.

A pale blush pink room

The light pink walls in this bedroom add a very subtle effect to the space, which has a very classy yet modern decor in general. The paint color is so unique, and it really stands out from the grey paint color in the living room, so the room doesn’t need anything else than a few wood tones, a single art print on the wall, and a beautiful striped linen duvet cover.

The subtle wainscoting makes this subtle pink bedroom decor shine. Against this backdrop of dusty pink, a beige fabric headboard and a mixture of beige and pink textiles on the bed brighten up the look.

Pair Dusty pink with Gold and Royal Blue for a Glamorous Effect

This is one of the most glamorous pink bedrooms on the list. The combination of the pink paint color, the dusty pink bedding, and the Royal Blue velvet on both the curtains and the headboard make for a beautiful contrast of different shades.

As the finishing touch to the look, the gold details in the mirror, accessories, and the crystal chandelier add a touch of glam.
