More than a modern bedroom – it’s a serene space you’ll never want to leave

Can a minimalistic bedroom with plenty of big storage furniture for your clothes and beauty items feel soft and harmonious? The key to making it feel cosy, is to mix it up with organic shapes and natural materials on accessories. Small display areas add a bit of eclectic style, as well as peace of mind too.

Cosy and intimate with space-saving magic

If you prefer to keep things sanctuary-like, add plenty of softness around your bed. Keep it neutral and natural in earthy tones, and choose a bed with a padded headboard and storage boxes for an uncluttered calm. Hanging textile tapestry on the wall and some extra pillows heighten the urge to curl up and wind down.

Chest of drawers with a just-for-you display

You’re drifting off, and there’s that moment right before sleep that’s so peaceful and amazing. Optimise the bedtime by decorating your storage with a lamp with a mellow warm glow, round vases, candles and a plant. Whatever makes you feel good, have it where you can see it.

Daydreaming in a nice clash of styles

A light-filled nook in the bedroom is the perfect spot for a private catch-up, weekend breakfast or daydreaming about your next holiday. Using a large wood table in this modern and clean bedroom creates a traditional look full of character. Ready to recalibrate before the business of the day kicks off?

Harmonious drape with a modern feel

A well-designed curtain idea for your bedroom windows isn’t just pretty; they also block light to help you fall into a deep sleep faster. Warm beige tones create a peaceful ambience in your bedroom without feeling heavy. Pair it with sheer curtains for a layered effect that lets natural light in.

Tactility is at least as important as colour

As you’re lying in bed or running your feet along the sateen-woven sheets, it’s also comforting to know that what you’re sleeping in was made with natural materials and has a lustre that makes it look good on your bed. Grey-beige is both soothing and one of those colours that work as a gorgeous neutral.

Take a deep exhale before bed

Organic shapes on your lamps make your modern bedroom feel soft and light as they also let you adjust the mood to different activities. Natural materials on accessories such as the textile wall decoration, balance all the white sleek storage furniture so the overall impression still feels sensual.
