Calm with colour

Choosing calming paint colours for a bedroom is the first step. Painting a room a warm or cold colour may have a profound effect on the mood it conveys. It’s not enough to simply think about the wall colour; you also need to think about the other colours in the room, whether they be painted surfaces or accessories.

Add texture

Natural, textured materials like pebbles, live-edge wood, stone, clay and even linen create a cosy, homely ambiance. Bringing in aspects of nature into the home, particularly the master bedroom, appeals to our innate need for comfort and peace of mind. It’s a key component of biophilic design, which emphasises the health benefits of incorporating elements of nature into the built environment. Beams, walls, and flooring made of grainy wood, in addition to bamboo mats and shoji screens, contribute to the calming atmosphere of a bedroom. It’s important to keep in mind that natural factors, including sunshine, play a significant role and can revitalise areas.

Balanced lighting

Finding the sweet spot between reading lights, nightstand lamps, and accent lights may be a challenge in the bedroom. You need adequate illumination to get ready for the day and do other duties in the room, but you also need bedroom lighting that won’t keep you up at night.

Plants and soft furnishings

If we were to pick one thing that would improve any room, it would most likely be plants. Plants within the house also aid in cleaning the air. Introduce some plant life into your bedroom if you have the room, the desire, and the green thumb for it. In addition, having the perfect bedroom rug may make every morning seem like a fresh start.
