Bedroom Color Schemes
Filed Under Bedroom, Bedroom Pictures | Posted on March 10, 2008
Bedrooms are private spaces that allow more flexibility than other rooms in regard to color, style and decor, making the decorating opportunities for these rooms almost endless.
Color is the most powerful tool you have for creating a mood, and everyone’s emotional response to color is different. When planning color schemes for this space, aim to create a warm, mood-enhancing look that whispers relax, take it easy, wind down.
Base your design thinking around colors, textures, fabrics and objects that make you feel calm, serene and secure. The bedroom is also the place for the things that are most dear to you—whether that’s art, photographs or personal mementos.
If you want your bedroom to evoke a certain mood, some colors have shown to be better at evoking certain emotions or moods. Calming colors are soft colors - blues, greens, and lavenders in a muted shade. Anything too vivid or bright will not be calming. If you are decorating to have a calming effect these colors go quite well together. You could punch it up a bit with some brighter accents in the same colors but with a different tone. I like a sage green for the walls with some light sky blues and lavenders sprinkled around the rooms Bedding, wall coverings and flooring can be a solid color to keep the calm mood going. Accent with candles and perhaps a table top waterfall.

Thank you for the article. I also think it is important to choose right Bedding colors go with bedroom.
I agree that color plays an important part in creating a mood for the room. I’m contemplating a Moroccan theme for my bedroom but I’m a little concerned whether the colors may be too vibrant. So, I may tone down the colors for the walls and concentrate the more vibrant colors in the curtains and bedding.

I am doing up my main bedroom with white curtains, duck egg colour duvet, silver pelmets and headboard and an accent wall with black stencil on white. But I love the warm stone colour and was wondering if that would all correspond with each other in an effective way without taking the misty romantic feel away???? Please let me know if I’m 0n the right track. Thanks
