Colour and decor inspiration for your bedroom

On average, we spend a third of our lives in our bedrooms, so it’s incredibly important to transform this vital room into a place of tranquility and relaxation.

We will be delving into the effect of colour on our mood, with solutions for master, kids and small bedrooms.

For tips on creating bright, soothing and modern bedrooms, and so much more, keep reading.

Master bedroom colour ideas

Relaxation is a key component of any bedroom; you should instantly feel at ease the second you step foot into the space. This master bedroom is a great example of how neutral colours can be enhanced with light pastel blue highlights of colour to create an inviting environment.

Small bedroom colour ideas

Decorating a small bedroom can be a real challenge, but it is possible to make the space feel larger using colour. A great small bedroom colour idea is to use light colours like pastels, whites or creams. You can even incorporate colour by creating a bright feature wall.

Boys bedroom colour ideas

Decorating a boy’s bedroom can be almost like an adventure in colour. A great boy’s bedroom colour idea is to use bright shades like blues, greens or oranges. Older boys may prefer a more mature space, like this example. So, try using dark colours like navy or forest green.

Girls bedroom colour ideas

This room showcases a fantastic girl’s bedroom colour idea, using different shades of pink and blues to add warmth and light. Combining these colours with white walls and wooden floors takes the space from a child’s to a more mature teenager’s room.

Autumnal bedroom colour idea

If you are on a tight budget but want to enhance a plain, bedroom use accessories like cushions, throws or pictures with hints of colour. For a timeless autumnal design, use red, yellows or orange like this example.

Minimalist bedroom colour idea

Minimalism and modern design go hand in hand to construct a clutter free, stylish living space. This bedroom is a great example of both. Black is used to add simplistic definition to the room with beautiful clean lines breaking up the large expanses of white.
