Master Bedroom Decor Ideas 

Your master bedroom should be a space that is a soothing place to unwind at the end of each day and a welcoming space to wake up to each morning. Designing a master bedroom that suits your needs, fits your style, and strikes the proper tone may seem like a daunting task at first, but it's within your reach. Here are some inspirational pieces and some advice on how to create a master bedroom that's perfect for you.

Playing With Neutrals - Master Bedroom Decor Ideas

Playing With Neutrals

Neutral color schemes in your master bedroom don't have to be boring. When you're working with a primarily beige or cream color scheme, be sure to incorporate warm elements in some areas, such as in wood furniture and accents. Adding in a plant or two can also drastically affect the space by bringing in a new color and tone while not taking away from the neutral palette.

Great Grey

Grey is a color most commonly associated with farmhouse style, but you can also use it in your bedroom if you're looking to create a more elegant space. The key is to use various shades of gray and include tones that are dramatic and moody. You can include it primarily in the bedding to set the tone, but you can also carry it throughout the room like this bedroom does with its bench and lights.

Central Ideas

In order to make a room feel balanced, you'll often find that rugs are centered in the middle of the room. However, you can also center the rug with other furniture and fixtures. This room has the rug centered not only with the bed, but also with the fireplace. Consider how your rug can line up with the fixtures and furniture in your room to establish a balanced space.

Color Blocking

When you use white as the base color of your master bedroom, you do still have the option of adding in other colors. This bedroom chose to decorate with a red rug by the foot of the bed. Because the rug isn't placed fully under the bed or even 2/3 of the way under, the white bed and the red rug are two separate pieces that are each allowed to have their moment to shine. However, they're still connected by that small overlap. You can decorate your bedroom in a similar way with a rug that serves as a pop of color and visual interest in your master bedroom.

Subtle Schemes

If you choose to incorporate an accent color in your master bedroom, you should find small and subtle ways to carry it throughout the space. This room uses blue as an accent, and purple to a lesser degree. You see that the colors can be incorporated in pillows, lighting fixtures, artwork, vases, and other areas. Keep in mind when you decorate your space that the shades of your accent color don't have to be the exact same shade of color--in fact, varying the exact hue is a good way to add visual interest and keep the room from feeling artificial.

Finding Balance

In some rooms, it makes more sense to not have the bed centered in the middle of the room. However, that doesn't mean that you can't have the rug centered. By centering the rug when the bed is further away, you create a pathway further into the room and tie together the different areas of the room.

Intentional Lines

Using lines intentionally in your furnishings and decor is a good way to establish the theming of your bedroom. Notice in this room how the headboard has horizontal lines, and so does the bench at the end. The blankets and pillows on the bed even add to that style. However, to keep your room from feeling stuffy, incorporate other lines, such as the different geometric pattern in the rug.

Soothing Green

Green is a color associated with new life and growth. It can also be a calming color to establish your color scheme around. While so many beds are neutral tones, you can choose a bed frame that is a different color like sage green and decorate with neutral bedding. Flipping the formula by starting with a colored base and decorating with neutral tones is a good way to make your room feel unique and stunning.

That Warm Fuzzy Feeling - Master Bedroom Decor Ideas

Contemporary Luxury

Interior design styles can be blended in several ways, but one easy way to do it is to use similar finishes and colors but to do it in different styles. For example, both the bed and vanity mirror are dark wood finishes, but the mirror is more traditional while the bed is more contemporary because of its clean cut lines and lack of ornamentation. Mixing style but keeping similar shades of color and tone is a great way to go about mixing styles in your bedroom.

That Warm Fuzzy Feeling

If you want your bedroom to feel softer, find creative ways to use plush surfaces and furs in your room.

Plus, hanging an animal skin on the wall above the bed is not only a great way to carry the motif through the space, but it also can serve as a unique piece of art in your room.
