This bedroom is simple but it’s relaxing and elegant at the same time. The colors are neutral but contrasts are still created between the light and darker tones. The light is also soft and warm.

First of all, it’s important to focus on comfort. The bedroom should be the most inviting, comfortable and pleasant area in the whole house. So invest in high quality elements such as the bedding, sheets, comforters, pillows, etc. Make the bed your sanctuary and think about the quality. Make sure you choose a high quality mattress and textures that you like.

Traditional bedroom with wooden floors and ceiling

This is a very nicely balanced bedroom interior with a very restraint color palette. The wooden floors have a light finish and the ceiling has been painted white. The rest of the décor is a mix of these two shades.

Second of all, be clever. If there are elements that don’t allow you to create the look that you want, try to recreate it and make it real. For example, if you would prefer the bedroom to have floor-to-ceiling windows but the structure doesn’t allow you to do that, use full length drapes to trick the eye into thinking that the windows go all the way up. This will give the illusion of larger windows and better views.

Relaxing bedroom with an open and relaxing interior

This is a bedroom with a calm and relaxing interior décor mostly based on light textures and neutral colors. The contrasts are strong but simple and the accent details are very well chosen.

And the third and last tip that we give for now is to keep it simple. The bedroom doesn’t need many decorations. What it needs is to be simple and relaxing. The atmosphere needs to be calm and tranquil and you can’t really achieve that when there are too many little accent pieces and decorations that distract your attention. If you want you can create a statement piece or a focal point but make sure the rest of the décor is as simple as it can be.
