Black and White Decor

There are a few simple design concepts that you can apply to white bedroom interiors. This means that you can create a cohesive look with the furniture that you already own. You can also start from scratch but make sure that you really love your investment pieces when you actually get everything done. Here are a few interesting ways that you can apply basic principles to a total room transformation.

If you want a neutral bedroom then you need to focus on texture. This means that you can bring in old wool rugs if you're into a Moroccan kind of vibe. You can even layer several different rugs in the same room. This is vital to really warm up the space. Accessorize with lots of candle holders and lanterns. These can either be in silver with jewel accents or you spray paint inexpensive pieces white.

Texture can also go in more of that modern kind of design direction. For instance if you have a loft style of room this is going to have concrete floors. It's also going to use lots of brick as well as stainless steel and it may have open ductwork. A lot of this may already be in your space so you don't need to experiment with bold colors. Instead, just keep everything bright white. Your furniture can be modern and even slightly lower in scale just so that the focus then will be on the higher ceilings. Scale is important when doing white bedroom furniture for adults. Otherwise it just seems really juvenile.

Color is another key to design bedroom interiors. This can also be one of the most intimidating parts of choosing your decor. You can really be quite funky with this. You could even try painting a checkerboard or a plaid pattern on the walls. However, you don't want it too seem country because this can be a little bit too stuffy. Instead, you could bring in an orange and white harlequin print for a teenage girl. However, you could change the pattern to a plaid for a teenage boy so it still will be masculine. Remember that bold wall colors and murals aren't just for kids. You could use this with a lot of painted white wood furniture for more of a country kind of feeling in a master bedroom. The key to bold colors is always balance.

Theme rooms can be the most difficult to pull off successfully. The key here is to be inspired instead of going with very literal items. For instance Asian inspirations can be over the top and can have a lot of paper lanterns in them and bright colors. Instead, you could focus on solid dark pieces of furniture. Bring in a collection of lacquered jewelry boxes. Go for a modern four poster black bed and twist garlands of faux cherry blossoms around it. Depending on how feminine you want the room to be the lantern style is also very popular both in lamps well as ceiling lights. Just choose one or two of these ideas and go for more neutral pieces in the rest of your room. This is the most subtle way to do this color palette and also the most sophisticated. If you want white and pink bedroom furniture then use handpainted details to mimic cherry blossoms.

Another option is to draw your inspiration from your favorite store. This could be Pottery Barn or Anthropologie. You can really find a few items on clearance to get an eclectic look. You can also copy some of your favorite wall colors to drive home the theme for less. This works really well if you have a designer inspiration room and you can still add your own personal creative touches but it also helps you to stay within a budget.
