Modern society is overloaded with information, advertising, and our thoughts are always occupied with work and family problems. Where to look for rest and relaxation if not in your bedroom? The filling of a room plays an important role in how a person perceives it. Furniture sets the style of the room and its mood.

Bedroom in white

Monochrome color symbolizing purity and spaciousness.
Some consider it “sick” and boring, but in fact white has many shades: from boiling white to pearl, milky, white and blue. The bedroom is rarely done only in white; you need to place bright accents. White color is unique. Many styles are “friends” with it:

Classic.
Scandinavian.
Nautical.
Loft.
High tech.
Provence.
Minimalism.

White visually enlarges the room, does not create an overwhelming impression, and goes well with most shades.

A bedroom in white will never be gloomy and dull. The highlight of the room will be textured materials: 3D panels or Venetian plaster at the headboard, a deep-pile carpet on the floor, original textiles and wallpaper.

Traditional white bedroom interior - wooden furniture and bright accessories

The classic style is suitable for those who like traditional solutions or are not attracted to overly expressive designs.

It is important that the interior is balanced and elegant. In a traditional white bedroom, dark wood and heavy antique-style furniture contrast interestingly with white walls and bright, simple fabrics.

An ideal addition would be an elegant dressing table, an easy chair, candlesticks or a painting on the wall. White and brown can be varied with gold accessories or a bright carpet.

Ornate furniture can be mixed with furniture of simple shapes - a traditional bedroom can be eclectic if different styles are combined with taste. Contrary to appearances, the classic style offers quite a lot of possibilities.

Features of a classic bedroom in white tones:

classic style will be emphasized by dark wood and heavy furniture, stylized as antiques;
ideal accessories include a dressing table, a painting, a candlestick, an easy chair;
for dilution, you can choose elements of the palace style (restrained luxury) or colonial style (ethnic accessories).

What to pay attention to when decorating a bright bedroom in a classic style:

it can be eclectic, but the combination of shapes, colors and textures should be moderate;
walls and bedding are uniform in tone and moderately bright;
jewelry and accessories should only be an elegant accent, so as not to fall into kitsch.

Color combination in the bedroom interior

It is quite obvious that everyone chooses the best colors for the bedroom independently, guided by the style of the interior and the temperament of the individual. We also found out that the color of the walls in the bedroom should be monochrome, and for greater expressiveness it is recommended to add a few accent spots

Here it is important not only the color is correct, but also the tone of the shade:

gray is combined with olive, pink, lilac, muted yellow, turquoise;
red will look good with warm beige and cream, with gold, or in contrast with white or black;
sand, yellow, blue, white, green - the ideal solution for creating light, natural and original styles.

Interesting ideas for combining calm shades

There are no exact recommendations on what color choice should be for a bedroom.

To achieve harmony, it is important to rely on your taste and not be afraid of unexpected decisions and creative self-expression

An interior in bright colors will add mood and sunshine, while pastel colors will make the room warm, cozy and intimate. To help you make the right choice of wallpaper color for your bedroom, we have selected the most interesting, creative and extraordinary finds in the photo gallery.

Review of bedroom furniture manufacturers

Today, IKEA has a good demand for furniture not only for the bedroom, but also in general. This is a Swedish organization that is known both in Russia and other countries. IKEA always offers a wide range of different types of furniture of any material class, type, style and variety.

ODALIA and DREAMLAND are considered good Russian bed manufacturers. An excellent combination of price and quality, proven by many buyers. Here you can find many models of comfortable modern sleeping furniture that will suit your interior.

Bedroom sets produced by the Russian factory STOLPLIT are popular. Buyers note the good quality, functionality of the furniture and affordable prices.

High-quality and reliable bedroom furniture is produced by ANGSTREM. Its distinctive feature is its thoughtful design, durable fittings and careful approach to assembly. Therefore, furniture from this manufacturer can last for decades.

True, you have to pay for quality, so the prices for Angstrom bedroom sets and wardrobes are above average. But often customers are offered discounts, promotions and special offers, which allows them to save a lot.

Another large Russian furniture manufacturer is the DYATKOVO company. The advantage of the company is its own production of laminated chipboards, which are used for furniture production.

In reviews, buyers mainly note the good quality of the furniture itself, reliable fittings, and modern design. But there are complaints about customer service, delays in delivery, and the incompetent work of some managers.

However, this is one of the most popular and affordable factories, whose products are sold in most furniture stores in Russia.

You will receive German quality bedroom furniture from the manufacturer RUF-BETTEN, as well as HULSTA. The main difference between these companies and others is a wide range of models of modern wardrobes and beds. If you need white or beige furniture, they offer many variations of light shades.

If you are looking for a functional bed, then CIA International (an Italian organization) is your place. The company offers its customers a large assortment of beds with built-in tables and lighting fixtures. It looks quite new and modern.

What psychologists say

When choosing a bedroom palette, it is recommended to rely on the advice of psychologists.

Red

This is an aggressive shade that has an exciting effect on the nervous system. It is used only as an additional shade. In a red bedroom it is difficult to recover after a hard day at work.

Orange

This color is also bright and rich. Psychologists advise choosing peach or apricot versions for the bedroom.

Yellow

This shade is suitable for energetic and creative people. It helps harmonize the functioning of the nervous system. This color is often used as the main color when decorating a bedroom.

Green

This is one of the most harmonious tones that helps you relax. It can be used as a primary or additional color.

Blue

This is a delicate color that easily combines with other shades. It can be safely combined with brown or gray.

Blue

This shade helps to calm down and relax. It helps slow down processes in the body and can be used as accents.

Violet

This shade looks very contradictory, and sometimes gloomy. Therefore, it should be combined with a neutral palette - for example, with beige tones. For the bedroom, it is best to use soft color variations - lavender or lilac.

Brown

Dark colors are not always suitable for the bedroom. When choosing such a range, it is worth considering many features - area, lighting, style. Dark shades often depress the psyche. Therefore, they should be combined with white or warm tones.

Black

Usually this shade depresses people. Therefore, in the relaxation room it is used mainly as shades.

Grey

This color looks laconic and restrained. It can be used as the main one and supplemented with different accents.

White

This is a monochrome shade that is considered a symbol of purity and freedom. Moreover, it has many shades, which helps you choose the appropriate option.

Bright accents in the room are important

For the melancholic

A combination of beige and brown colors is perfect for such people. Large mirrors and mother-of-pearl details can be added to the interior.

In this case, the walls can have gray, blue, brown, beige tones. Eco or ethno style is perfect.

Sanguine

Rich orange or purple shades are suitable for such people. A good solution would be a bright yellow tint or turquoise.

Gray-blue palette

Today, the most popular color for painting walls in the bedroom is all kinds of shades of gray. This is due to the versatility, practicality of modern interiors and the trend towards Scandinavian style. The gray-blue shade, which has already become a classic, especially stands out against this background - it seems to envelop the space, creating an atmosphere of peace and relaxation. To “revive” it, take bright accents and add more light. Mauve shades will add warmth to the room. Caramel pink, red and orange tones will be good in ornaments or for decorative pillows and blankets.

Color wheel and rules for its use

The color wheel will help you understand the harmonious combination of shades. There are different interpretations of this handy design tool. For the classic version, the following methods for forming combinations have been developed:

Analogue triad, when 3 shades are in close proximity to each other.
Contrasting colors. For the bedroom interior, choose combinations of colors located in a circle diametrically opposite.
The complementary triad involves the use of two additional shades instead of one, which are located on the opposite side of the circle from the base one.
The choice of a double divided contrasting scheme is using a square or rectangle.
The three-color triad operates on the principle that two additional shades are selected to the base color, spaced 3 positions apart from the main one. An isosceles triangle will help make your choice easier.

A clear example of the proposed principles is shown in the diagram.

The combination methods outlined allow you to create dozens of design options for your bedroom interior. But color saturation has not yet been taken into account here.

Attention! The Itten circle provides the opportunity to decorate a monotonous interior by using different shades of the same color.

What color schemes can you use for the bedroom?

Before starting a designer renovation, you should choose a bedroom design style: it can be functional minimalism, newfangled high-tech, creative Art Deco, or a simple classic version. An important factor when decorating a bedroom is the choice of color: the color shades of furniture and walls can change during the day under the influence of direct sunlight.

It is worth paying attention to the following shades:

White is a neutral color that has a positive effect on human perception. A white shade will give the room lightness, cleanliness, and visually make the bedroom wider. To diversify the color scheme, you can combine white with other shades.

So that the bedroom does not cause a feeling of alienation, and the colors do not irritate the eyes, it is worth combining darker shades of paint with two or three shades of colors. To give freshness and lightness to the bedroom, the walls are covered with pastel shades, and to give the room a more rich atmosphere, it is necessary to use bright shades with a patterned splash.

Pros and cons of light wallpaper

Like all types of wall decoration, light wallpaper has its pros and cons. Of course, it still depends on the preferences of the owners of the apartment or house. However, it is worth paying attention to some nuances regarding this choice.

Pros of light wallpaper in the bedroom

They consist in the visual perception of space in which there is not enough space. For a small room this is an ideal solution. In addition, light wallpaper can become the basis for decor and exquisite furniture. Against their background, these elements will be favorably emphasized even in a large room.

Disadvantages of light wallpaper for the bedroom

Over time, stains may appear through the walls. This is due to the fact that the surfaces were not carefully processed and primed. You should pay more attention to this process and this problem will not arise.

Light wallpaper can fade and lose its attractiveness. And one more minus - they are easily soiled. Dirt stains and dust are clearly visible on them. Therefore, it is important to take care of proper care of the walls, promptly cleaning them from dust.

Range of colors for walls

The color range of paints, recommended by recognized interior designers, is suitable for premises for various purposes. It is characterized by the use of neutral shades, which allow you to change the mood of the room and make adjustments through color accents.

The considered color combination options suggest painting the ceilings white, matching or slightly lighter than the walls. The second option is relevant with a pastel color palette.

White color

The color of luxury is pure white, without cold or warm shades, life-affirming, compatible with all colors. Reveals the texture of any material, and therefore it is beneficial to introduce textured contrasts in white: glossy and embossed wall surfaces, light and heavy textured fabrics, soft leather and stone. A popular combination of painted brickwork and smooth plaster (or drywall).

It goes well with any bright accents, but in small quantities.

The peculiarity of color should be taken into account: any lighting and the presence of a color accent create reflections and color spots on the white surface, changing its character. Direct sunlight will make the room dazzlingly white and contrasting, muted daylight will make it cold and soft.

Goes well with clear glass.

Classic white combinations:

gray-brown (sepia) becomes contrasting against a white background,
with sand color creates a feeling of freshness,
neutral gray in small quantities mutes whiteness, adds calm,
dark gray and anthracite - recommended for contrasting accents, as an alternative to black.

Black is too contrasting for white, but can be present as a graphic element on the wall or in furniture.

White walls with bright accents are appropriate in a room for active areas.

The color can have cold (“white night”) and warm shades, which are present in interiors to soften contrasts and dim brightness.

Light sepia (taupe)

In itself, neutral and calm, this shade creates a feeling of balance and harmony.

Light shades play well in textural contrasts, for example, matte wall surfaces and fabric with large relief patterns. It is a color that changes depending on the shade or other chosen color with which it is combined.

Harmonizes with brown, gray and their shades. Pure white color, dark wood and chrome elements will be a refined addition. As an accent, you can use color spots in green, red and purple shades.

The combination of gray-brown with any shades of yellow is unacceptable, including colors that contain yellow to some extent.

Light shades of sepia are suitable for the bedroom; in combination with warm brown (furniture) and white, they create a feeling of some detachment.

In combination with white (protruding structures) and gray shades of flooring and furniture, it can be used for office walls.

Light taupe in combination with white ceilings and fillets, brown wood doors looks perfect in the hallway and corridor.

Light ocher (sand color)

Warm and cozy, associated with nature, yet very homely. It harmonizes well with white, brown of varying brightness and saturation, cream (see below) - a win-win option. Like all light colors, it brings out the surface texture well.

With white, depending on the intensity of the light, there may be a contrast on vertical planes, which will require some muting of the white pilasters to a “white night” tone.

Black color is allowed, but only as an accent, just a little.

If you don’t know what color to paint the walls in the bedroom, then light sand shades will be very appropriate. In combination with white and cream, they will brighten northern rooms, while brown chocolate tones will add restraint.

Accent colors – orange, bronze, mother-of-pearl.

Styles

Linking to a specific style will add additional charm to the bedroom. Below I will talk about the most popular interior styles that are implemented in bedrooms.

Loft style

This style is still popular in our apartments. A bedroom in white tones looks advantageous in this style: the variety of textures makes even one shade of white playful and different from itself. The loft style attracts with its deliberate roughness and unusual interior design. Despite the simplicity of decoration, the interior design looks cozy.

Loft style

The basic rule of an industrial interior is the absence of finishing or the imitation of its absence.

The walls are usually finished with brick, rough plaster or left without finishing - bare concrete. The floor is wood or concrete; if desired, you can buy tiles that imitate concrete or wood. Crossbars and rafters are visible on the ceiling; Often a concrete slab remains. It is enough to decorate one wall and not overload the interior with decor and furniture and a loft feeling will be created.

Lay out the accent wall with brick or imitation, and paint the remaining walls and ceiling gray or white.

Many light shades will make the space visually larger

A dark ceiling will visually narrow the space. If the room is small, then you need to give preference to a white ceiling.

During the construction phase, add wooden beams to the ceiling if the height allows. At the final stages, diversify the interior with original lampshades - the loft is ready!

Many light shades will make the space visually larger and hide the irregular geometry of the room. In a loft, even large windows are left without curtains, but to hide the shortcomings of the room or to block the views of neighbors, it is permissible to hang curtains.

Add bright accessories, vintage furniture, mirrors to the space of the room

Furniture in a loft does not have a specific style, but there is no need to mix different styles, the main thing is moderation. Designer furniture of unusual shapes is well suited for the interior. Often in a loft you can find a bicycle hanging on the wall; here it is also a decorative element.

Add bright accessories, vintage furniture, mirrors to the space of the room. It is worth being guided by the principle of practicality and convenience. Often in a loft it is enough to place only a bed to give the space a complete look. Don't overload the room with unnecessary elements. Leave some space.

Furniture in the loft does not have a specific style

Classical

The classic style has been perfected over the centuries, it has no unnecessary elements, it is a complete composition. You need to follow the rules to create a suitable interior. The main element of the room is the bed, it is the center of the composition. When developing a design project, you need to pay attention to textiles; high-quality fabrics can elevate even a meager interior.

Cheap textiles will destroy the feeling of pomp and sublimity of a noble interior.

Classic style

A bed in a classic interior includes a decorative carved headboard. If this is not expected, choose exclusive textiles with hand embroidery. The highlight of the room will be the canopy over the bed. Make your sleeping space even more intimate by adding a canopy. This voluminous piece of furniture takes up a lot of space and is not suitable for small bedrooms and rooms with ceilings below 2.7 m. The main properties of the fabric are weightlessness and translucency.

Advice Choose a canopy to match the rest of the textiles or highlight it with a bright color; the textiles of the canopy and the blanket on the bed should be in harmony.

Think about the lighting inside the bedroom. Place spotlights around the canopy or along the perimeter of the walls. Divide the light into main and decorative. The chandelier in the room should give a lot of light; for evening lighting, purchase symmetrical wall sconces. The light temperature controller will allow you to change the mood of your interior: warm light evokes romance.

A bed in a classic interior includes a decorative carved headboard

Combine materials of different textures and textures within one space. The ceiling is traditionally decorated with gypsum stucco; it can be replaced with stucco made of polyurethane, flexible vinyl, or duropolymer. The variety of materials allows you to choose different patterns and easily mount products on the ceiling and walls.

For a more formal look in the bedroom, moldings are used on the walls. For the floor, I recommend choosing parquet made from natural wood or quartz vinyl tiles in light shades. For textiles, choose natural, hypoallergenic fabrics such as silk, cotton, linen or wool.

Provence

To decorate a room in Provence style, I advise you to pay attention to wallpaper with floral patterns and decorative plasters in pastel shades. Combine plain colors and floral patterns, and create a handmade painting on a spare wall.

Provence style

White color easily combines with shades characteristic of Provence:

lilac;
cream;
light yellow.

For flooring, use wooden boards, parquet or laminate. A variety of colors allows you to choose a coating to suit any budget.

Light-colored furniture is canonical in Provence interiors. A bed made of natural wood in light shades will organically fit into the surrounding space. If the area of the room allows you to place additional furniture, in addition to the bed, cabinets and wardrobe, install a dressing table and a mirror.

Furniture in the interior style of southern France has scuffs and cracks; buy vintage furniture or artificially aged furniture.

Textiles are predominantly natural: linen, cotton with small floral patterns or checkered patterns.

Minimalism

Minimalism implies a laconic design, the absence of unnecessary details. I advise choosing white as the main one and complementing it with shades:

beige;
dairy;
pearly.

The combination of glossy and matte furniture finishes will make the space of the room more interesting.

Basic materials of minimalism:

tree;
stone;
glass;
metal;
plastic.

Minimalism implies a laconic design

Minimalism willingly uses built-in furniture: a wardrobe, drawers for linen under the bed, a hidden TV. For small spaces in rooms, a transforming bed is used. During the daytime, the bed is assembled and is part of the closet; in the evening it turns into a full-fledged sleeping place.

Practicality and comfort are important in furniture . The necessary minimum of furniture also includes a bedside table. If the room has a desk or dressing table, zoning is carried out.

Buy doors with hidden handles and paintable ones, it creates the feeling that there are no doors in the room. Patterns and decorations do not fit into the style of minimalism; for walls, instead of wallpaper, use painting or decorative plaster. When decorating window openings, choose roller blinds or blinds instead of classic curtains.

Practicality and comfort are important in furniture

If you prefer curtains, then fringe and tassels will not be appropriate. Add mystery to your bedroom at night with designer lighting. Illuminate the room around the perimeter with spotlights, place original-shaped floor lamps on the floor that provide geometric shadows.

The color scheme of the style is clear and concise, only three colors. White\light gray and black are the two main colors. Add cream or brown if the furniture has a natural color.

Tip If the furniture is white, add some bright accents.

The combination of glossy and matte furniture finishes will make the space of the room more interesting.

The advantage of minimalism is the ability to change the space without spending a lot of energy and money. Rearranging furniture, changing the color or shape of color accents radically changes the impression of the space.

Scandinavian

Interest in the Scandinavian style in Russia has not faded for a long time. Simple, strict, but at the same time laconic and functional is valued for the absence of unnecessary details and the ability to create a stylish space without investing large sums in decoration and the purchase of furniture.

Scandinavian style

The main color of the Scandinavian style is white, it is present on all surfaces, in the shades of furniture and curtains. The furniture in such an interior is practical, each element has its own function: there are no bulky chests of drawers, shelving, or cabinets. The effect of free space is achieved due to the absence of large furniture, except for the bed. The bed most often has a storage system that replaces the chest of drawers.

In addition to white as the main color, pastel, milky and cream shades are also used. For color accents in a warm interior, use cool colors:

blue;
emerald;
coffee shades will complement the abundance of white.

The main color of the Scandinavian style is white

In an interior where there are no obvious color accents, texture comes to the fore: a fleecy carpet on the floor, a fleece blanket, and decorated pillows will make the interior more comfortable. Scandinavians love natural materials, so they prefer textiles made of linen, wool, and fur. In the interior it is easy to find wicker objects and wood. An alternative to a wooden floor is parquet or laminate made from pine, alder or birch - trees growing in the north. The walls are most often painted.

Scandinavians love daylight and sun, which is usually not enough in winter, so the windows are not curtained. With dense Russian buildings, you cannot do without curtains. Choose roller blinds or Roman blinds, or hang sheer tulle on the window.

Tip Don't be afraid to add floral or geometric patterns.

Decorate an accent wall or the space above the headboard with a mural or wallpaper. For wall decor use:

family photos;
decorative house plants;
vases;
candlesticks.

Items sold in the IKEA store are designed for Scandinavian interiors. If space in the bedroom allows, place a decorative fireplace opposite the bed.

Pink shades

If you are choosing which wallpaper color to choose for a bedroom with a romantic mood, take a closer look at a variety of pink tones - from pearlescent pink to crimson. A rich and juicy raspberry tone will give a feeling of luxury; warm smoky shades will help make the interior more “fresh” and modern. They can be present in textured materials - velvet, suede or cashmere.

The bright color of a flamingo's plumage may seem a little naive for use in an adult bedroom, but pairing it with sophisticated porcelain gray shades will create a very cozy atmosphere. For textiles, designers advise using delicate colors of orchids and dark purple. Coral is traditionally considered a feminine color, but it is also perfect for a marital bedroom. It is better to combine it with neutral and cool beige shades. Smoky blue can be used for furniture pieces such as a sofa or chaise lounge.

Features of selection

When choosing the color scheme of a room, you should take into account its size and purpose.

Small

For a small room, you should choose white shades that help visually enlarge the space. However, it is not at all necessary to give preference to beige shades or ivory. Any pastel colors will help visually expand the room. If you want to use dark colors in the interior, this technique should be used only on one wall or its fragment. This will help avoid overloading the interior and visually reducing the room.

When decorating a small room, you should use a combination of white and blue colors. This combination will complement the interior of a bedroom of any size. If you want to make the room more interesting, you should use rich details. This could be a multi-colored bedspread or bright curtains. For small bedrooms, a combination of white and rich details is perfect. It could be a yellow carpet or emerald textiles.

Children's

When decorating a child's bedroom, it is worth taking into account the development of the child's nervous system. The most suitable shades for a child include the following:

Green – provides comfort and refreshes the room. This shade even contributes to the development of the baby’s intelligence and improves his memory.
Yellow is considered a positive color that easily lifts your spirits. This shade is suitable for shy or anxious children. If the baby is active, it is permissible to paint only 1-2 walls yellow or use bright curtains.
Blue and cyan - these tones have a calming effect. They should be chosen for excitable children who often experience fears or have a tendency to hysterics.

What wallpaper to choose for a bedroom with light furniture

Dark wallpaper is not suitable for a small bedroom. It is better to give preference to light colors.

Advice! If you want to visually expand the space in the bedroom, choose wallpaper with a small pattern. As a last resort, you can purchase wallpaper with a medium-sized pattern.

Light wallpaper will give the room calm, an atmosphere of warmth and home comfort. White color will add cleanliness and refresh the room; such wallpaper (option in the photo) is suitable for true aesthetes. Pastel wallpaper for a bedroom with dark furniture, as in the photo, is suitable for a classic style.

In a spacious room you can use any wallpaper. Even dark colors, contrasting options, several styles, and even patchwork techniques are suitable here. Owners of large bedrooms can make their wildest creative fantasies regarding bedroom interior decoration come true.

Advice! In order for you to be satisfied with the result after completing all the finishing work, you need to carefully select the wallpaper.

For those who are ready to install white furniture in their bedroom, the color range of finishing materials increases.

The photo shows an option for using dark trellises against a background of white furniture. Fans of Scandinavian interior style can “dilute” this image with original textiles on the bed and natural fiber curtains.

Selecting a shade of paint color for walls

You can choose the color and shade of paint you like using color catalogs. Please note that the desired shade will look different on the walls than on printed samples or a monitor. Therefore, it may be necessary to adjust the lightness already on the surface to be painted.

The surest choice is to do a test painting of small sections of all four walls. In a room with walls of different textures, paint the areas where the textures meet.

For an objective result, the paint needs to dry and you need to look at it at different times of the day. You may want to lighten the shade (make it pastel) by diluting it with white color. It would be a good idea to “try on” the shade of the ceiling.

Beige bedroom

Beige color can be the basis for almost any room. Depending on combinations with other shades, it allows you to create completely different rooms. Shades of beige are never “screaming”; they are always pleasing to the eye and do not put pressure on the psyche.

Advantages of a beige bedroom:

neutral color creates a comfortable atmosphere in the bedroom, regardless of the time of year and the size of the room;
beige shades are an excellent basis for further decoration of the room. Depending on additional colors and correctly placed accents, it makes it possible to create almost any style in the interior;
beige color has a calming effect, which has a good effect on the quality of rest and restoration of energy;
In a bedroom where the base color is beige, you can add any shades. Beige goes with all colors, but never overpowers them.

Color combinations in a beige bedroom

If you want to create a neutral room where an atmosphere of stability and peace will always reign, it is recommended to choose a monochrome option. The design of such a room should use several harmonious beige shades without adding contrasting or bright details.

Sometimes several brown elements are added to a monochrome interior. Such a room turns out to be more rich and textured, without losing restraint. In order for the brown color not to interrupt the main background, its amount should be minimal. A pattern on curtains or wallpaper, a couple of pillows, a lampshade or trim on a bedspread will be quite enough.

Beige and red bedroom. Suitable for a young couple. This combination evokes passion and a storm of emotions, and encourages activity. Red color can be present in textiles, lighting fixtures, and decorative wall panels.

The combination of beige with green or blue is a good combination. The atmosphere in such a bedroom is cozy, peaceful and relaxing.

A beige-orange bedroom will be an excellent solution for melancholic people and people prone to depression. The only condition is that the orange color should not be too bright and saturated. It is better to give preference to muted shades.

Bedrooms where beige partners with lavender, pistachio, and pink colors look good. The design principle remains the same. The main task is that bright shades do not interrupt the calm neutral background, but only correctly emphasize the chosen style.

Bedspreads

Any colors, surfaces and cuts look great. A plain bedspread for a bedroom bed has a luxurious look and is a real “highlight” when implementing any idea.

With the right choice, even a modest interior will look completely different. Thanks to it, you can focus on the main piece of furniture – the bed.

The collection of such bedspreads is extensive - from discreet shades to rich dark and contrasting bright ones. You can always choose a color in a romantic, modern or any other style.

Bedspreads devoid of ornament are characteristic of a classic interior. They are often chosen by people who value sophistication and sophistication. Muted or thick tones are equally appropriate.

Home comfort is emphasized by fabrics such as microfiber, velsoft and cotton. They are produced in all sizes: single, double and euro sets. Products of high artistic quality are an integral part of the decor of a room in the house such as a bedroom.

Professional designers are happy to use monochrome elements in decoration. There are many reasons for this approach. Neutral or eye-catching solid colors, without overloading the decor with intricate patterns, help realize the planned design.

They are associated with a canvas on which details are added at will. For a place to sleep and relax at night, most families choose pastel tones of the same color, thus creating maximum comfort in order to step away from daytime problems and completely relax.

Application of prints

Fans of modern style in the interior often choose monochromatic solutions. However, it is quite possible to choose wallpaper with patterns. Using prints indoors complicates the task of interior design, because in this case it is necessary to think through the room down to the smallest detail. Geometric prints are very popular in modern bedrooms. Wallpaper can be decorated with cells, stripes or circles. These designs have not gone out of fashion for many years.

Many people choose wallpaper with floral prints. These can be flowers, leaves or plant branches. Textile details will help support this pattern. Fans of things with patterns should use plain furniture in neutral colors. Thanks to this, the room will not be colorful or cluttered.

Unusual solutions

Let's look at some interior styles that are used when decorating the interior of a bedroom. Neoclassicism involves creating decor in the room in the form of a raw wall at the head of the bed. The loft accent allows you to bring individuality and unusualness to the room. There is no need to create an accent wall from natural bricks; you can limit yourself to selecting photo wallpapers with a 3D effect that depict bricks. You can complement this look with plain materials in a peach or cream shade.

Modern style presupposes the dominance of light colors. A beige color scheme is suitable for minimalism, which can visually expand the space. Modern style involves using a minimum amount of furniture in the bedroom. Art Nouveau involves the use of chocolate, blueberry, tones, complemented by silver embossing and floral patterns.

Warm gray and metallic

A bedroom decorated in these colors gives the impression of a luxurious and modern interior.

You need to be careful when combining chrome elements in the bedroom, since the room should evoke a feeling of comfort, and not repel with a cold and austere shine. Thanks to the warm undertone of gray, the characteristic reflections of metal elements become calmer and softer, giving the room a special “zest”

Classic combinations

The interior of a white bedroom should be complemented with classic design techniques and shades. For example, a gray and white bedroom looks very advantageous.

Gray is a restrained and calm tone. It evokes peace rather than aggression. Therefore, such a combination with white for the bedroom couldn’t come at a better time. In gray you can pave the floor, ceiling and upholstery, as well as window drapery. Everything else is appropriate to highlight with shades of white.

Black interior

Total black is rare in bedroom interiors, but it looks very impressive. Black tones make the room more graphic and emphasize the strict architecture, making the space more voluminous.

Filling with furniture

In the bedroom, light furniture looks aesthetically pleasing and stylish. With its beauty it will attract the attention of guests. The main type of furniture is a white wardrobe in the bedroom.

How to choose the main color for your bedroom

Designers insist that no more than seven colors should be present in one room, here the following should be taken into account:

decoration of walls, floors, ceilings;
the whole gamut of textile shades - curtains, bed linen, pillows;
color of furniture and accessories.

The optimal solution is to choose 2 conceptual colors, for example, the floor is wenge, the walls are purple, and select all other furnishings and decor items to match, darker or lighter, but in this spectrum of the palette.

Important: To decorate small bedrooms, it is better to use a light palette. For low rooms - a vertical stripe in decoration, for narrow rooms - a horizontal one.

Decoration of floors, walls and ceilings

Having decided on the main color, it's time to think about the details.

Floor. Choose wooden flooring - parquet or laminate in light colors. It is both environmentally friendly and always looks chic. To make getting out of bed as pleasant as sleeping in it, you can lay a soft, low-pile wool rug near the bed.
Focusing on the wall means making a personal corner interesting and fashionable. For one wall you can apply a Loft style finish (using white brick or imitation wallpaper). Decorative plaster will save your budget and at the same time add uniqueness. The wooden texture will allow you to feel close to nature. Smooth wallpaper with a small pattern or matte paint will optically expand a small room.
Ceiling. This is the part of the room where interior decoration begins. The bedroom is a relaxation and sleep area, so massive structures or an office option would be inappropriate. The upper part of the room should not be pretentious. In finishing, you need to think through all the details, because the arrangement is done only for yourself, not for prying eyes. The ceiling should become a large cozy blanket, light and airy. When choosing materials, you need to be guided by a number of factors: the size and height of the room, financial capabilities, style. A budget option is whitewashing or painting. You can use wallpaper, but it is extremely inconvenient. Tensile or suspended plasterboard structures are the best idea for a ceiling.
Lighting. The larger the bedroom, the more carefully you need to select lighting fixtures so that not a single area is hidden in the shadows. In addition to the main one on the ceiling, do not forget about the additional ones: near the bed and mirror, in the work area (if any). If you have a large closet, provide interior lighting. If the room is small, you need to choose compact options.
