Throw in some colour!
Have you heard about the term colour drenching? If not, let’s acquaint you with it!
It’s simply the act of painting all the surfaces of your bedroom, and not just the four walls. The idea behind it is simple – immerse your room in colour to make it appear larger than it is.
Now there are many ways to do so!
If you want your bedroom to look thoughtful, you could paint the walls, doors, cupboards and window frames the same colour. You can even pick different shades of the same colour. It would work especially well with soft greens, greyed blues, or any other neutral tone.
On the other hand, if you want to make a dramatic statement, you can pick a bold colour like yellow, orange or red. It will bring life to the room with that essential ‘pop,’ thus adding more character than before.
You can also paint the woodwork and ceilings to create a more cohesive aesthetic bedroom decor.
Pro tip: Do not go for spotless white since it has become quite the norm for every other house.
Soft lighting
It’s a known fact that if you want to sleep better, you must switch off all the bright and harsh overhead lighting at least an hour before you hit the hay. It ensures that your eyes get ample time to adjust to the darkness and puts you in a sleepy zone.
Clearly, the lighting of your bedroom is necessary to help attain good sleep, so, unsurprisingly, it becomes a focal design point, too.
You can invest in smart lighting solutions that can be well controlled with just a touch or come with a remote dimmer that can gauge the passing of time and gradually lower the light saturation. It will serve as a great aid to your senses.
Try to make ambient lighting the primary light source for your bedroom. Pick warm-tone lamps for your bedside tables to get a flood of soft lighting on both sides of the bed. Additionally, you can also get under-lighting for wardrobes, dressing tables and the bed for that beautiful hotel-like atmosphere.
Maximalism vibe
Most people believe that the concept of curated maximalism or ‘clutter core,’ as named by the millennials, is not for the bedrooms. That’s not true!
2022 has been all about stepping out of the Covid-19 shadows that brought alienation and distance between us and everyone else. This pandemic also allowed most people discovered the depths of their personalities. Thus, ensuring that the different facets of your personality shine through your bedroom design has become essential.
You can do this by repurposing and showing off your personal belongings with a bit more flair. Incorporate the varying tones and put textured and opulent materials with a contrasting structure to ensure layered richness in your room.
You can do so by keeping a bamboo or nickel-plated table lamp on a trolley table with a heavily structured design. Or you can pair eclectic and bright-coloured cushion covers on plush cushions to express yourself vividly.
How about the palette of burnt orange with a splash of cool blue, alongside some delicate floral work, including pinks and red?
Simply put, channel your entire personality in your room and don’t worry about it being too much – it’s trendy!
