When thinking about color for your bedroom, you want to make sure your scheme is cohesive and matching as much as possible. If you're going for an all-wood look for a natural bedroom, look to oak and teak which have a lovely light finish. Variations of the coloring might still tie the room together, but otherwise, you want to keep things as similar as possible.
Light-colored furniture works for minimalist bedroom furniture, but this isn't exclusive to minimalist design, and in general, you want the space to feel bright and airy. Lighter colors are conducive to a more relaxing mood.
If you're not going for the wood look, keep things off-white or neutral as much as possible, then allowing for your decor to bring in the color. 'Neutrals are calming in an interior as they are super easy to live with,' says Athina Bluff, founder of Topology Interiors. 'They can evoke a sense of tranquillity and quiet. Some may find all neutral rooms too bland or uninspiring, but neutrals can also be a great base for more color.'
