  3. Add a single accent colour through cushions and art.
  4. Use wallpaper with a subtle texture like grasscloth.
  5. Repeat metal finishes such as brass or bronze across the room.

Furniture

  1. Invest in an upholstered bed with a tall tailored headboard.
  2. Choose matching or complementary nightstands with drawers.
  3. Add a reading chair and footstool by the window.
  4. Include a dressing table with good lighting and a mirror.
  5. Place a bench at the end of the bed for getting ready.

Bedding and textiles

  1. Buy quality cotton percale or linen sheets in white or soft neutral.
  2. Layer a quilt, duvet and throw for a hotel look.
  3. Use a mix of four to six cushions in two or three textures.
  4. Hang lined curtains from ceiling to floor.
  5. Lay a large wool rug that frames the bed.

Lighting

  1. Use bedside lamps with fabric shades.
  2. Fit wall-mounted reading lights with dimmers.
  3. Add a statement pendant or chandelier.
  4. Use warm 2700K bulbs for soft evening light.
  5. Install blackout blinds behind curtains for better sleep.

Personal and calm

  1. Hang art you truly love above the bed.
  2. Display a few treasured objects on a tray.

  4. Bring in fresh flowers or a plant each week.
  5. Hide clutter in closed wardrobes, drawers and lidded boxes.

Tip: Edit the room before decorating: remove anything that does not make you feel calm or you no longer use, then invest in fewer, better pieces. Keep chargers and cables tidy behind furniture, and avoid charging phones under pillows or on bedding.
