Bedroom ideas: Layer up

Layering tactile materials will add depth and interest to a bedroom scheme. This contemporary bedroom is proof of this, thanks to the dark wooden floor and black pendant light over the bed, plus scrunchy linens and plentiful cushions in hues of dove grey, white and terracotta which introduces grown-up comfort. The chunky rug gives warmth underfoot.

Bedroom ideas: Circular feature wall

For a bedroom idea that's calming but still impactful, get creative with paint to make a feature wall, like this large circular wall design. This cheery, rosy hue brings a bright burst of joy into a room. It's a delicate, refreshing shade and a great alternative to other warm neutrals such as cream or beige. Importantly, it's soft enough to flatter a multitude of looks.

Bedroom ideas: Midnight blues

When it comes to your bedroom wall colour, deep blues have always had a confident yet calm authority. This blue bedroom is balanced with the white ceiling and lampshade, plus the white chest of drawers with brass knobs which add a stylish touch.

Bedroom ideas: Grey alcove

This is a comforting grey and white bedroom scheme. Storage is often limited in a bedroom – even though clutter should most definitely be kept to a minimum – but this bedroom design makes the most of alcoves to display decor and treasured pieces.

Bedroom ideas: Elegant harmony

Tap into the wall panelling trend and choose luxe, minimalist furnishings to create a serene and welcoming bedroom sanctuary. Here, the pink velvet headboard wonderfully complements the pale green bedding. Complete the look with pastel accessories and tap into natural tones with storage baskets and a jute rug.

Bedroom ideas: Dramatic sophistication

Dark grey walls with a dusky pink velvet bed, combined with rich timber tones and brass finishes on furniture, make for a wonderfully dramatic and sophisticated bedroom. The bay window offers an abundance of natural light and the hanging chair provides an alternative spot to sit.

Bedroom ideas: Simply rustic

A limited neutral colour palette is key to this rustic bedroom design. A bespoke panelled headboard cleverly opens out to enclose the bed or folds flat against the wall. Coastal-inspired artwork adds interest.

Bedroom ideas: Modern lines

White is the perfect foil for a pairing of yellow and pink, allowing the colours to sing out. A steel-blue upholstered bed acts as a cool contrast. Soft plaster pink works to sooth any brash tones for an overall calming bedroom.

Bedroom ideas: Drifting away

This bedroom is defined by sky blue walls and a cloud-like pendant light, which adds a quirky touch. Artwork and a shapely mirror add interest to the big expanse of wall.

Bedroom ideas: Soothing pink & grey

If you ever needed proof that pink and grey are a match made in heaven, then this is it. A stunning fabric depicting a mass of blowsy peonies provides a gorgeous backdrop for a bedroom scheme. Bedlinen and throws in soft, muted colours ensure the wallhanging has maximum impact.

Bedroom ideas: Serene uplift

A bedroom should be all about comfort, so invest in a tufted twist pile carpet for a fabulous feeling underfoot. This tan-brown carpet is the perfect colour to lift an otherwise neutral, pared-back bedroom scheme. The combination of lush greenery (plants can also enhance the quality of your sleep) with grey and burnt orange soft furnishings, is the perfect finishing touch to your bedroom sanctuary.

Bedroom ideas: Vibrant pinks

A striking mural will create visual impact in a bedroom. Abundant floral designs feel smart and contemporary when paired with luxurious velvet, gold and marble. Mirror the pattern on just one cushion, keeping surrounding bedlinen plain and light so the mural can take centre stage.

Bedroom ideas: True blue

Transform a neutral bed frame with a floral duvet and pillowcases. Finish with a wool throw in a paler sky hue for an elegant look. To make your room feel larger and brighter, paint the walls in a chalky off-white or pale shade of blue. For a more dramatic statement try a darker backdrop, which will look gorgeous with bright white and inky blue linens.

The French Bedroom Company

Bedroom ideas: French style

This French country style bedroom is easy to achieve. Combine minimalist, pared-back furniture, layer tactile furnishings, and add a touch of luxury. The ornate headboard and soft silk bed linen (which is widely recognised for its inherent beauty benefits) exudes a timeless elegance and adds a sense of grandeur. Team with wooden accents and raw, exposed materials (as seen here with the exposed ceiling) to create a rustic look.

Make more of the shelf space in a built-in cupboard by using magazine files and box storage to organise paperwork and knick knacks. Choose from a matching collection to keep the look neat and stylish. The vintage finds stand out to best effect against a crisp, white backdrop.

Gorgeous neutral linen and pale wood, teamed with a helping of grey blue, yellow and black, give this scheme a calm, laid-back atmosphere. Woven seagrass flooring with rustic basketware and herringbone linens bring texture to the room.

Bedroom ideas: All blue

This blue bedroom has a wonderful cocooning effect. Soft, organic shapes (round rug and oval mirror) helps to create a warm and inviting look.

Bedroom ideas: Sophisticated minimalism

If you're a minimalist at heart, look to soft furnishings to bring some texture and contrast to your sleeping area. This rather grand bedroom benefits from tall ceilings, which makes the wall panelling a focal point here.

But to make a feature of your bed, layer crisp white cotton bed linen with a velvet midnight blue bedspread and matching cushions. With accessories, stick to organic shapes (the curved interior trend is great to tap into) and balance with wooden furniture for a sophisticated, calming bedroom scheme.

1

Pair Black and Green for a Dramatic Retreat

Stacey Brandford

A black and green color palette can be both elegant and casual. Use green as your bed's backdrop and paint the surrounding bookshelves and accents, like a wall sconce, a moody shade of black.

2

Try Metallic Accents

James Tarry / Stocksy United

A neutral bedroom can benefit from eccentric accents like a metallic table lamp. Here, the lamp pairs well with the blush tones in the space, offering a creative twist to an otherwise minimalist design.

3

Design an En Suite Bathroom

Play up the coziness of an en suite bathroom by installing white shiplap walls horizontally and outfitting the bedroom with a compact bed and nightstand to make the most of the space.

DIY Your Dresser

Paint the Back of Your Bookcase

Trevor Tondro / GMAimages

Energize your bedroom by adding a bold color to the back of your built-in bookcase. A vibrant orange or yellow, for instance, will instantly brighten a white room while matching any unexpected patterns, like the geometric design in this Greenwich Village room designed by Tilton Fenwick.

6

Include a Chic Bar Cart

Mike Garten

Give your bedroom a glam look with a gold bar cart that can easily double as a nightstand. Choose one with just enough space to store your books, art, towels or baskets.

7

Reuse Arched Window Frames

Kara Rosenlund

Think twice before tossing away your old window frames. Rather than a traditional headboard, arched windows like these can bring character and a rustic flair into a bedroom.

8

Design Around a Theme

Brian Woodcock

Think of a theme for your bedroom to help guide your decor choices. In this case, a nautical theme was implemented to add brightness to the room. From the red, white and blue flags above the bed to the polka dot bedding and fish-patterned pillows, the bedroom evokes a coastal feel.

9

Hang Pendant Lights

Leah Flores / Stocksy United

Pendant lights can be just the touch of elegance a simple design needs. Choose your preferred shape like these diamond-inspired pendants that blend in with the bedroom's neutral, airy layout.

10

Experiment with Scandinavian Style

Believe it or not, there's beauty in minimalism. From a simple geometric rug to a tufted upholstered headboard, adhering to a palette of white, grays and blacks can have a major impact in a space. Plus, if you have an affinity for nature, sprinkle in animal photography. Just be sure to keep your Scandinavian-inspired design clean, clutter-free and functional.

11

Symmetrical Furniture

Colin Price

Symmetry is one word Clara Jung, principal of Banner Day Interiors, kept in mind when designing this bedroom full of neutrals. The pairs of wooden nightstands, table lamps and mirrors give the space a cohesive feel.

12

Create an Alcove

Paul Phillips / Stocksy United

Carve out space for a cozy nook on one side of the room, preferably the one with windows for natural light when reading. Decorate the windowsill with books, flowers and other decorative trinkets, while saving space for storage underneath.

13

Embellish With African-Inspired Decor

This spacious two-bed boho bedroom is beautifully decorated with African-inspired prints and accents, including the framed posters, woven trunks and patterned pillows.

14

Go Fresh With Lavender

Beatriz da Costa

This bedroom shows off the beautiful effect lavender can have on your decor. It's a soft color with cool undertones that's ideal for traditional or contemporary spaces. Sprinkle hints of the shade throughout the room — such as the rugs, your seating, flowers or bedding — and watch how the whiteness of the room pops alongside it.

15

Incorporate Polka Dots

Polka dots are playful and creative choices for a feminine bedroom, especially when paired with pink. From the headboard to the bedding accessories, the polka dots bring movement and a whimsical feel to the room.

16

Remodel the Basement

Christopher Dibble

Interior designer Max Humphrey transformed a Portland, Oregon, basement into a chamber with all of the essentials, including a breakfast nook with black-and-white plaid seating. For any open bedroom space, consider adding a set that'll create extra seating space for guests.

17

Hang a Beaded Light Fixture

In this Pasadena, CA, pool house bedroom by Arterberry Cooke Architecture, bright white walls add to the room's breezy feel. The beaded light fixture above the bed is a stylish addition that plays off the neutral tones in the space.

Combine Light and Dark Decor

Jonny Valiant

Coral and green are unexpected yet complementary hues that can instantly bring a bedroom to life. Paint the walls a lighter shade, while keeping the curtains and any artwork in the room a darker tone (even the edges can be painted darker for even more depth).

19

Carve Out an Office Corner

Phil Crozier/ Design: Reena Sotropa In House Design Group

Don't waste the opportunity to make the most of an unused corner. Turn it into a workstation! Install a built-in with just enough space for a desktop and two shelves, then amp up the area with graphic wallpaper.

The bedroom is the place where a person relaxes and rests from an exhausting day at work. Accordingly, the situation in such a room should be as comfortable and pleasant as possible. If you think through everything to the smallest detail, then the interior of the bedroom will turn out not only cozy, but also original, impressive. When designing a room, you should be guided by its size. In a miniature room, it is unacceptable to use a large amount of furniture and decoration in dark colors.

Consider several popular styles of bedroom design and the features inherent in each style.

Classic

This style is characterized by functionality, attractiveness and regularity of forms. Classics are chosen by people who value beauty and aesthetics. The design involves the use of marble and natural wood. The flooring is parquet. In such a bedroom, in addition to the bed, there is a dressing table, a wardrobe and two bedside tables. Furniture can be dark or alder color. Light curtains with lambrequins will look beautiful. The classic involves the use of lighting fixtures such as sconces and a ceiling chandelier. In the bedroom, decorated in a classic style, the canopy above the bed looks great. The accessory will make the interior more comfortable and gentle.

Minimalist

A very popular style concept that has become increasingly used for arranging bedrooms. The style will appeal to those who prefer to see only really necessary items in the interior. Bedroom design in a minimalist style involves the use of simple furniture (no decor) and wall decoration in cool colors (pale blue, gray, white). Minimalism is characterized by strict outlines. This bedroom seems very spacious and filled with air. With regard to color design, a maximum of three shades are allowed, which should be restrained and monophonic. Lighting can be imagined in the form of built-in LED lamps that will highlight the functional areas of the room.

Antiquity

The characteristic features of this style are magnificent architecture and perfect harmony of color. The interior of the bedroom is decorated in light colors; floor lamps with a dark lampshade are often used as contrasting accents.
