Our weekly wire on interior design focuses today on what makes a white bedroom so timeless and special. How to revamp your bedroom and do it like pros do it? How to achieve great results on a budget? If this sounds of interest, I believe you will enjoy our weekly wire on interior design.
Needless to say, white bedrooms are so very serene and fresh. They keep a sense of contemporary design no matter if it’s shabby chick, French country style or an urban 2010 approach. But most important, they ensure you have a good sleep. I love to think, design starts from function. Shall you need a deeper, more comforting sleep then you may find these lines useful in redesigning your bedroom. And of course you’re free to implement the whole plan, which include wall repaint and flooring or you may simply pick 2-3 accent objects to suite to your bedroom and bring a fresh look.
As you may have already guessed, white bedrooms need white walls. The dominant colors in our color scheme of today include white and light beige in great proportions, followed by gold and ultra light blue tint. To make this scheme complete add 1 up to 3 accents in dark brown or orange. Pick just one of the two.
Now, getting back to the walls, we’ll need to paint them white. Pick good quality paints and make sure existing colors are perfectly washed out. Hire a team to undertake this task as wall preparations and painting are sometimes a painful job you may not want to undertake yourself.
Another major change would be the flooring. In case you have a light wood essence already installed (like pine, ash or beech) then we are covered. If not, consider installing a white ash. This is a fairly good alternative at a bargain price. Again, ask a pro to install this for you. The white ash flooring is supplied by Fast Floors and also available is other assortments.
Once these major areas are well covered you should start enjoying being a designer yourself. There’s a lot of work involved, but great outcomes require a good job.
Getting back to our major focus here: a good comforting sleep, I would recommend that you double check on the mattress you currently have. Is it old? Not new enough? Then it’s worth considering our mattresses from Select Comfort. There’s an entire suite depending on the desired sizes and models. I’m sure you’ll be amazed with the results.
With the white walls and light flooring your room already receives a lot of light. Abundant light and fresh air are two great factors for our well being. Yet, when you wish to sleep, to much light may prove discomforting. This is why I would recommend a set of window valences to filter light when desired. Pick a marine theme to add a seaside tone to your room. Keep consistent with textures for the bed linen. Designer Living offers them at a very good price and in a suite that plays well with seashells, lines, thin and thick textures.
Speaking of textures, don’t be afraid to mix silk and rough wool or cotton. They play a nice vibe when well toned. A set of accent pillows make a more vivid mix when they’re of different fabrics and textures. Use your senses to match them well. In today’s selection I have included an accent chair that has 2 great qualities: it ensures simplicity and comfort. Plus it has a lovely fabric. Plus Overstock offers it at an incredible price. Did I say 2 benefits? Well they’re actually 4. I would definitely pick this beauty.
And I would add a decorative pillow in light shades of blue and gold to it. A nice model is being offered by Sweet Peaches Bedding.
Speaking of furniture pieces in your bedroom, I would warmly consider a comfortable bed, a charming night stand and an accent armchair. Please consider clothing storage in a separate room/wardrobe, outside the sleeping area. You’ll see this has a great effect on your comfort in the room.
Now, picking a charming night stand is sometimes a hard thing to do, but as we are aiming for the white fresh serene look, I believe a French style Cheri Leg night stand is the right piece. The bed though, doesn’t have to go the same line. But they should harmonize together well. There are quite a few offers for our French style night stand, so you have a variety to pick from.
We could go the same line and add an antique Sunburst mirror in golden tones. Position it somewhere on the wall next to the window. Light makes it even brighter at morning times. This also depends on how your room is cardinally positioned. Also make it reachable, as it’s a mirror you may use daily, not just decor. The lovely Sunburst mirror is being offered by Home Decorators.
With our French night stand and the antique Sunburst mirror you have the charm of old times in your bedroom. But your contemporary nature still clings to some contemporary pieces. Different époques could play a beautiful concerto together when attentively gathered.
In today’s collage the contemporary look is brought to you by a genuine Dutch designer, Tord Boontje, who created a delicate and airy silhouette for the Daedalus table lamp. You can find it at Lamp lust at a very good price. Already have a lamp lust for Daedalus? Me too.
Among our recommendations and interior design ideas, I would also include a metal picture frame to complete the night stand. Go for a collage of three pictures in the same frame. I find it so simple, equilibrate and meaningful. It is being offered by Personalization mall. There’s a great variety of photo frames. Pick your favorites.
