A calming bedroom retreat that provides a warm and cozy feel to this large master bedroom space.
Being such a large room and starting with a blank slate, we were careful to select key statement pieces that fit the scale of the room. We did this with a large upholstered custom tufted bed, a gorgeous hand knotted rug, a pretty and strong bench for the floor of the bed and contrasting wood nightstands.
When selecting furniture for your bedroom keep in mind the matching bedroom suite is a thing of the past. Make your bed the focal point by selecting a bed that is a statement and does not need to match anything else in the room. Upholstered beds give a soft and luxurious feel and are great at creating a statement. A classic iron or wood sleigh bed are also nice but keep in mind to avoid matching your nightstands to your bed. Having mismatched pieces will make for a more interesting and dynamic look.
The flooring throughout the home is a light maple. I ensured the tones of the wood pieces in the master bedroom as well as the color palate we selected in the rug and upholstery was soft enough to compliment the light wood floors. The hand knotted rug under the bed makes a statement in the room on the floor with soft tones of silver, blue and cream.
Comfort and luxury is what I keep in mind when designing a bedroom retreat. Ensure you have a good mattress, bedding and linens, ones that give you the comfort and suit your needs. The bedding is often what I use as the source of inspiration for the room. Find or have bedding made that sets the tone for your room and dictates the color scheme.
This color palate of blues, creams, and the olive and grey undertones in the wood furniture provides a warm neutral and contemporary palate for the space. It does this in a way without being too masculine or feminine.
My client's and my favorite element in the room is the statement bed. With it's gorgeous tufted headboard with a slight wing in the soft linen chenille like fabric. Classic, contemporary and timeless.
