85+ Bedroom Ideas That Are the Very Definition of Beauty Sleep

Sometimes a straightforward square, triangle, or diamond can make the biggest interior statement. In the bedroom of landscape designer Jenny Graham’s Argentina home, a custom bed by Graham brings color—and plenty of angles—to the otherwise minimalist scheme.

Sometimes it pays to lean into historical details. In Italy’s Tuscia region, Filippo Chia carefully restored a 1920s-era villa with nods to its history throughout (it was built on the remains of an 18th-century botanical garden). Here, the stucco walls are a rich, natural ocher and pair with 19th-century Neapolitan tile.

Bedrooms are a respite above all else, so a sense of tranquility should reign supreme. In a townhouse on Manhattan’s Upper East Side designed by Augusta Hoffman, soft fabrics, amped up with Pierre Frey pillows, create a serene color scheme that feels like a private oasis.

If you’re partial to one particular pattern, why not put it on the walls, bedding, and curtains? Interior designer Eric Allart imbued this Paris home’s primary bedroom with a print by Simrane from top to bottom, adding a sense of fun and whimsy.

Inside the Milan residence of Dedar co-owner Caterina Fabrizio, the fabrics take center stage. In the bedroom, a mint-green curtain pairs with purple bedding and similarly moody throw pillows.

Having artwork above the bed is a great idea, but if you’re worried about something falling in the middle of the night—particularly in an earthquake-prone area like Los Angeles—a tapestry is a great alternative. In New York, interior designer Todd Raymond paired this textile by Pauline Esparon with a wallcovering by Phillip Jeffries for a soft, tranquil look.

If anyone knows how to curate a statement-making purple bedroom, it’s the ELLE DECOR A-List firm Drake/Anderson. On Long Island, the duo paired various shades of lavender with orange and a bit of natural light from the great outdoors to create a classic-yet-modern aesthetic.

Designer Jacques Grange brings natural elements, like floral pillows from Marrakech, into a guest bedroom on the Portuguese coast. Pair that with the green ceramics on the shelf and the window that looks out onto the paradisal locale, and you’ve got one breezy vacation spot.

The Baldissera family palazzo in Milan dates back to the 15th century, so it stands to reason that the bedroom would feature old-world accents like this dramatic Louis XVI canopy bed and gallery wall. Taken all together, you’ll feel as if you’ve stepped back in time.

In New York City, Apparatus CEO and cofounder Gabriel Hendifar dresses his bedroom with distinctive works of art and a warm color palette. The latter is achieved through the brass in the pendant by Apparatus, the rosy bedcover from Zak + Fox, and plenty of natural light.

Sometimes a good bedcover can completely make a space. In designer Tamsin Johnson’s Sydney bedroom, a red patterned blanket from Roller Rabbit ties the settee and lamp together while adding a bit of whimsy into the equation.

In a children’s bedroom, a set of bunk beds can be a great way to save space for more seating—and toys! In this coastal home in France, designer Jean-Louis Deniot mixes a poppy yellow-and-blue color palette with neutral tones to create a bright, inviting space for the kids.
