Best Bedroom Design Ideas to Transform Your Dream Space Today

1. Built-ins for Small Bedroom Ideas

You can utilize the built-ins by displaying some art or books on it. It is a valuable bedroom feature when saving storage space. Coloring the back of the built-in with bright colors like electric blue or hot pink will rejuvenate your bedroom.

You can also consider a customized built-in if you are newly constructing the bedroom. A classy arched or a simple rectangular built-in, whichever you fancy, will be an excellent decorating idea.

2. Checks & Stripes 

Give life to your somber backdrop by adding checked or stripped linen, pillows, or blankets. With bold colors like sunset orange or warm yellow, let the lines speak for themselves. So check those checks and stripe up for a beautiful bedroom idea. A woolen mattress with giant checks will blend perfectly with your geometrical bedroom design.

3. Antique Furnishing for your Master Bedroom Ideas

For bedroom furniture ideas, antique furnishings are timeless treasures that can transport you to its golden age and add a touch of nostalgia. Traditional chairs with pale pink slipcovers can be teamed with an antique French gilded mirror. Complete the picture by pushing a light blue rolled-arm sofa lounge at the foot of the bed.

4. Scalloped Pillows

For a soft and curvy finish, throw in some scalloped pillows. Customize the edges of the scalloped pillows with dark colors instead of crisp whiteness. Soft-colored scalloped pillows like blush pink or soft blue will add charm when paired with light or dark colors.

5. Natural/Sustainable Alternatives 

With the world taking a massive step towards sustainability, can bedroom designs be far behind? Wooden furniture, breathable fabric, energy-efficient lighting options, and mindful linen are the starting steps. You can decorate the interior with used arched windows to retain the natural touch. 

Use stone design inspiration to create fascinating bedroom designs and go with the sustainability theme. For high ceilings, add some beams for a rustic bedroom and create a serene haven.

6. Layers for Bedroom Interior Design

Give an extra comfy touch to your bedroom design by layering it up. Gone are the days of dull wooden floors; lay a mattress around the bedroom to add depth.

Aesthetic layering will turn your bedroom design into a charming one. A painted ceiling and soft-colored wallpapers will also accentuate the charm of layering. Top it all off with an Arabesque room divider for a magical finish.

7. Elegant Glass Lights

Adorn your bedside tables with elegant glass lights. Soft and warm glass lights can create an ambiance of peace. You can even try to hang the glass lights over some architectural element to highlight it. The glass lights will add a modern stroke to your bedroom design when paired with a glass door.

8. Bedroom Ceiling Design

Uniquely designing the ceiling creates a different focal point in your bedroom apart from the bed. Dark-colored ceilings or wallpaper ceilings are taking over the interior. A different-colored roof gives a spacious atmosphere. 

You can even drop the ceiling above your bed. Hang abstract pendant lights on the dropped ceiling to add dramatic effect. Believe it or not, your ‘fifth wall’ has as much power to change the bedroom atmosphere as the other four walls.

9. Spring-Inspired Colors

Spring is symbolic of a fresh start. You can indulge in a spring-themed bedroom design by adding those heart-warming spring hues to the decor. Try sage-colored walls, add lilac cushions, or hang coral-colored artwork to capture that glorious spring bloom. 

You can even drown yourself in a lavender haze and go monochromatic lavender. Bring Spring to your bedroom by covering the floor with a quaint floral mattress. Adding fresh flowers in a vintage vase on a wooden bedside table will also echo the spring lure.

For some peaceful me time, create a cozy corner in your bedroom. Snuggle up on a vintage armchair or an upholstered sofa with a soft pouf to relax those leg muscles. With an addition of a rattan pendant light, you have the perfect corner for reading or just scrolling through memes.

Adding a soft-colored loveseat or a minimalist wooden table at the foot of the bed are other options to design your spacious master bedroom. A day bed in front of your bed is perfect for an afternoon siesta. For a modern design, you can install a large mirror with a small table in front and a bowl pendant light.

Cozy, soft-colored linens make a great bedroom design. Wrap the room in comfort by adding soft-colored linens. Or go wild with multi-colored or brightly textured linen.

“Linens are a great way to add depth and dimensions to the bedroom by adding it in duvets, throws, curtains, and cushions. Swapping out linens and bedding allows for seasonal changes in the bedroom decor, keeping the space fresh and updated,” says Aishwarya Dandekar.

13. Home Office

You can turn one corner of the bedroom into your home office. Built-ins can be perfect for implementing a home office. A shelf for storage with a small table for a desktop will suffice. You can paint this corner with a different color or cover it up with textured wallpaper to add a different vibe.

Rattan is a highly sustainable material that creates the most intricately beautiful furniture.

You can even go nuts with a whole rattan theme and include all things rattan!
