Connect It Visually to the Common Rooms

Crisp whites contrast with inky blacks and are united by a deep midnight blue tone.

Stephen Kent Johnson / OTTO
To center a headboard on the wall, designer Shawn Henderson closed up a decorative fireplace in this pint-sized but perfect NYC bedroom. A coat of white paint helps the exposed brick wall blend in and feel much less heavy. Matching pillows and a headboard bring in a nice pop of color but the rust tone still stays within that neutral territory.

Sneak In a Desk
Robert Peterson / Rustic White I

Experiment With Color
Thijs de Leeuw/Space Content/Living Inside
Black might sound scary, but more unique and can't grade dark shades might actually be the thing you didn't even know you were missing to take your bedroom to the next level. Design firm Atelier ND used Pontefract by Paint & Paper Library in this bedroom. The unique hue defies definition (but if we had to try, we'd say it's a purplish-reddish black)—which is one of the many reasons the design team chose it. The pink mohair bedframe and fun prints throughout the room lighten the mood.

Keep It Classic
Chris Mottalini
There's nothing like classic design, as proven by this beautifully simple, and neutral bedroom.

The rest of the rooms in this NYC home are painted in deep, dark tones, while the bedroom features the opposite approach.

Choose Strategic Window Treatments
Alec Hemer
If your bedroom has a beautiful sea view (like this one in a home designed by Kim Dempster and Erin Martin), don't block it with intense window treatments.

Choose Bold Lighting
Studio Ashby
"The headboard's muted gray wool mix balances the impact of the cushions and the throw, and the low profile allows for sizable artwork above the bed," Sophie of Studio Ashby tells us. Putting one large-scale piece of artwork above the bed is a great alternative to a gallery wall and bold, modern lighting will bring just a punch of modern style.

Add a Fun Headboard
Studio Ashby

Lean Large Artwork
Regan Baker Design
We love how this bedroom designed by Regan Baker boasts a bohemian feel despite the statement piece: That large-scale photograph of a traditional yellow bedroom.

Pay Attention to Scale
2LG Studio
As you can see in this bedroom designed by 2LG Studio, each item is carefully chosen to work within the architectural quirks of the space.

Have Fun With Wallpaper
Tim Street-Porter
Fun wallpaper is an easy way to add personality without taking up any precious surface space.

Check out Cost Plus World Market for fun and affordable bedroom decor.

Try Unexpected Color Combinations
Kerri McCaffety
Who knew bright baby blue and caramel brown worked so well together? We also love that the same print is consistent in the wallpaper and the headboards. Classic embroidered coverlets give it a formal, traditional look while the gingham skirts are a delightfully playful finish.

Repaint Your Walls
PHOTO: FELIX FOREST; DESIGN: ARENT & PYKE
Instead of sticking with plain white walls, consider another neutral that adds a subtle yet bold twist. "Responding to an unusual Y-shaped floor plan required a strategy to pull light from all directions to create a range of shifting light experiences: Moody and subtle to the south; bright and open to the east," explain the designers behind Arent & Pyke. For a moodier bedroom that isn't full-on dark, try a steel blue-gray like this one. And then lighten things up with colorful linens and keep things streamlined with a bright white ceiling and modern bedside sconce.
Check out Home Depot for endless paint color options.

Stick to a Theme
Alec Hemer
