Colors for your bedroom

When choosing bedroom colours, it is important to choose shades that are calming. At the same time, the colours should also add personality to the space.

Here are some colour suggestions that are both stylish and calming:

Cool colours

Blue: Blue is a popular choice for bedrooms because of its calming properties. Light blues such as baby blue or aqua can create a sense of serenity, while darker blues, such as navy, add a sense of luxury and depth.
Green: Green, especially in shades such as sage or mint, can have a calming effect. It brings nature indoors and can help to promote relaxation.

Warm colours

Soft yellow: Yellow is a cheerful and uplifting colour. Soft yellows can bring a sense of warmth and cosiness without being too overwhelming.
Peach and salmon: These soft, warm shades add a touch of colour without being too bright. They create an inviting and comfortable atmosphere.

Neutral colours

Grey: Grey shades are versatile and timeless. They can create a modern and serene ambience. Combine different shades of grey for a layered look.
Beige: Beige is a classic neutral colour that exudes calm and simplicity. It is an ideal background colour that can be combined well with vibrant accents.

Earth tones

Terracotta: This warm shade is perfect for creating a cosy and inviting atmosphere. Terracotta brings a natural look that works well with wooden furniture.
Brown: Brown tones, especially when combined with natural materials, can create a warm and relaxing environment.

Creative colours

Lavender: Lavender is a unique and stylish choice that adds a touch of elegance. It is a soft colour that exudes tranquility and works well when paired with white or grey.
Soft pink: Pink isn’t just for children’s rooms. Soft pink tones can create a romantic and charming atmosphere that is perfect for an adult bedroom. When choosing colours, it is also important to consider the lighting in the room. Natural light and the direction of the room can affect the way colours look. Don’t forget that accessories such as cushions, blankets and artwork can also help to add pops of colour and enhance the overall look of the room.
