Bedroom Colour Ideas

These bedroom colour ideas show how to update any space to create an atmosphere tailored towards sleep. There are neutral bedrooms, like cream and white, that withstand passing trends and prevent expensive future refreshes. Meanwhile, bolder hues such as navy, green, and pink are explored alongside their effects on sleep. These ideas explore the best bedroom colours for every taste and illustrate how to create the right bedroom colour scheme for any home.

White Bedrooms

Thanks to the plain tone, white is a timeless choice that can be used as the foundation for various schemes. This clean hue has a bright look that makes bedrooms appear big and bright, making it a good option for dark or compact layouts.

Grey Bedrooms

Grey is an on-trend hue that pairs well with many other bedroom colours. Lighter greys offer a fresh, minimal appearance, while darker shades create a cosy, drawn-in atmosphere suitable for unwinding after a long day.

Cream Bedrooms

Cream is a bright and flexible neutral that can be combined with a variety of other colours. Unlike White, it also offers a subtle warmth and grounding, making it an excellent pick for a soothing night’s sleep.

Blue Bedrooms

Blue bedrooms are a versatile choice. Lighter hues offer a breezy look inspired by coastal living and a gentle ambience that makes it easy to fall asleep. Meanwhile, darker tones, like navy, offer a stately appearance that spans changing trends.

Green Bedrooms

Green evokes the look of the great outdoors, crafting a serene environment that aids rest and relaxation, making it excellent for bedrooms. To match this organic palette, green pairs well with other elements like oak, concrete, and stone.

Pink Bedrooms

To create a more playful bedroom colour scheme that avoids overwhelming the senses, try using a soft pink. This rosy tone provides a comforting atmosphere that lifts spirits and improves mood without distracting from sleep.

Sliding Wardrobe Doors

To maximise space and make use of any nooks and alcoves, turn them into handy storage space and install sliding wardrobe doors. For bedrooms that lack natural light, or for more compact layouts, try mirrored options, which make rooms appear big and bright.
