Traditional Bedroom Color Schemes
Generally, bedroom colour schemes that help you feel calm and relaxed are the best option. This has to be a very personal choice – what's a calming shade for you might be simply deadly dull for someone else. But there are some bedroom colour schemes with a broad appeal – winning combinations that look great in most room shapes and sizes and can be adapted to suit traditional or contemporary styles.
GREY AND GOLD
Add warmth to the cool sophistication of grey by teaming it with golden yellow (above). This is a perfectly balanced palette that works in harmony to soothe and restore without being in any way bland and boring. Use these colours with natural materials such as mid-tone wood furniture, try the the Skandi Oak low double bedstead, from Dunelm, stone flooring or wool carpet and enamelled metal accessories.
BRIGHT ACCENTS
If you want to add an element of zingy colour to your bedroom it can be done without creating a scheme that will keep you awake at night! Be sure to balance any bright shades against a backdrop of white bed linen. The Ben De Lisi Home Brooklyn bedding, from Debenhams has a stunning ruched design that will bring an interesting texture to the room. Use simply styled furniture in wood or neutral finishes and introduce elements of bold colour through cushions, throws and small accessories.
GO GREEN
H&M
Introduce this season's trend for jungle and tropical prints with a leaf print bed linen in restful tones of green. Paint the walls in a mid-tone shade of sage or moss and add brass accessories for a modern look that's soothing and restful.
BLUE AND WHITE
A classic pairing that's perfect for small and big rooms alike. Increase the proportion of white to blue to open up a smaller space and vice versa in a big room. In a north-facing room, or one with small windows, use a warm tone of lavender blue or add a warm accent colour to the mix. Blue is the ultimate colour for creating a relaxed mood and blue and white bed linen, such as this Wisteria bed linen, from Christy (above) can be a good starting point for creating a scheme.
TONES OF GREY
In the last couple of years grey has toppled taupe off its top spot as the number one, trend-led neutral. And it's a particularly good colour for the bedroom. Both smart and practical it can be adapted for pared-back, modern schemes, relaxed country-style rooms and dressed-up for a more formal classic look. You can layer pale grey on walls and floor, with darker shades on the bed linen, like this Linen duvet set from H&M – or try the reverse and choose charcoal walls with soft, smoky hued bed linen. Add brass, or copper accessories or shots of bright colour for depth and to warm the overall look.
ROSE HUES
Florals have long been a key choice for adding pattern to a bedroom, whether through wallpaper, curtains or bed linen. The trend for painterly florals and large-scale blooms updates the look to give a modern, boudoir opulence. Perfect for this style are shades of dusky rose, romantic lilac and touches of rich purple. Deeper tones prevent the look being too twee, offering instead a feeling of decadent comfort. These colours work well to bring a sense of intimacy to a room with high ceiling and big windows.
MOCHA MIX
For snuggle factor it's hard to beat the appeal of layered shades of chocolate, coffee and caramel. Like a warming mug of velvety smooth Mocha, these colours wrap you up in a cosy cocoon of visual warmth. Keep the look fresh by using accents of rusty orange or luxurious gold, as with this Biba Logo cushion from House of Fraser. In this way you can use chocolately shades in a dark room, as well as one that gets plenty of natural light.
WHITE ON WHITE
A favourite of interiors stylists, the all white room stands or falls on the combination of textures and finishes used. It's a scheme that's timeless and fresh and brings light into a dark space. Layer texture upon texture to add interest. For instance, team smooth bed linen like the Belvedere collection, from The White Company with woven wool blankets and faux fur. You can also use both matt and glossy surfaces for interesting variety. For a room with cool natural light, choose shades of white that have a warm tint and in a bright room blue toned whites will provide balance.
