We’ve all heard this before – “You spend a third of your life in your bedroom.” Why not make it dreamy? There are so many opportunities to create the restful, cozy space your bedroom needs to be.
Design Concept | Decorating Den Interiors can help you achieve calm in your most personal of spaces. We offer some thoughtful tips to make your bedroom a restful sanctuary.
One key to a restful space is utilizing a soft and serene color palette. Neutral colors in soft shades create a sense of calm and provide a wonderful backdrop for art and accessories.
While lying in bed, what do you see? A white ceiling? Why not paint this fifth wall a calming and serene hue? Soft sky blue or gray blue are great choices. If blue isn’t in your palette, remember to keep your color choice soft and calming.
Additionally, select bedding that can easily coordinate with other textiles. A mix of velvets, cottons, linens, and faux fur add visual and tactile interest to your space. Additionally, mixing these textures with soft, diffused lighting will allow you to wind down at the end of the day.

Mirroring colors found in your landscape can also help to create a restful retreat. Picking up the colors you see through your windows and incorporating them into your space will help you to create harmony with your surroundings.
What about a comfortable seating area? A quiet space to read or reflect may be exactly what you need to achieve calm. Consider a chair or chaise and an accent table or a bench at the end of your bed to provide needed seating.

Area rugs offer softness under foot, but they also soften sound. Consider adding an area rug to define your room. Even if you have carpeting, an area rug can add warmth and coziness to the overall design.
Plants are another great option for your bedroom. Not only is green a soothing color, but plants release oxygen and help to purify the air. What better way to ensure a good night’s sleep?
Keeping things soft visually and tactilely will help you in achieving a relaxing respite in your bedroom. Mixing in art and accessories you love will find you well on your way to that no-stress zone.
