10 Bedroom Trends For 2015 You Will Love
Our bedroom is our personal sanctuary, a sacred space, and is one of the rooms in the house where we spend most of our time in. A bedroom can also do wonders to uplift your spirit and get those creative juices running—after all, the bedroom is what you wake up to at the start of the day, so it should be designed in a way that will motivate and invigorate you.
It’s a good thing that we have free reign over our bedroom, designing it in a way to reflect our unique personality and particular tastes. If your bedroom has sported the same look for the past five years, the coming new year is the best time to give it a facelift!
Here are the top bedroom trends for 2015 to inspire your bedroom makeover.
The Colour of the Year
If you like monochromatic colour schemes, you’ll love 2015’s Colour of the Year: Guildford Green, a neutral and natural colour that can work with a wide range of combinations, from bold and daring shades to pleasing neutrals. This silvery green shade can tie the cool, warm, light, and dark layers of the same hue, such as blue, plum, and even grey! A fresh coat of Guilford Green paint on your bedroom walls can instantly make it brighter and would go well with both modern and vintage furnishings. You can also apply this colour torugs, cushions, bed coverings, and lampshades for best results.
Floral Wall Art
Wall art, such as a painting, print, or decal can add a pleasing accent and a personal touch to a bedroom. Floral designs, which became a massive trend in 2014, will continue being a favourite in 2015, but the focus will be on minimalist isolation rather than patterns. Chosen carefully, a simple print can easily stand out or blend in—whichever you prefer, especially when the wall is painted in Guildford Green.
The Hotel Suite
The bedroom is your home within your home, and a popular trend is to make the bedroom a multifunctional space. Making your bedroom more like a hotel suite lets you complete daily tasks without having to leave it. Consider assigning a corner as your workspace and another as your mini-bar!
Romantic Touch
Nothing spells “romance” more than having a four-poster bed in your bedroom. You don’t have to overdo it with frills and pinks—a charming frame would do, but don’t forget the quilt and soft coverlet!
Natural Materials
It’s time to go back to the basics, particularly the use of natural materials such as stone, wood, and brick. The materials can certainly make any bedroom cosy and homey, and would of course look fantastic with Guilford Green accents.
Rustic Feel
Similar to natural, adding a rustic feel to a bedroom through accessories such as natural branches can make you believe you’re living in the country, not a crowded city. Think canvas drapes, knit throws and blankets, and area rugs that can make your bedroom look like a smaller version of a country house.
Light and Airy
A bedroom with no clutter lets you breathe and is the perfect space to relax in after a long day at work. For this trend, the bare essentials are all you need!
Classic and Traditional
A 2015 trend that will never go out of style is the classic look, characterized by ornate chandeliers, quilted armchairs, and carpeting. Top it all off with fresh flowers in a crystal vase, and you’re all set.
Custom Headboards
The often-overlooked headboards are starting to get the attention they deserve, and in 2015 it’s all about customised ones. Have your headboard designed according to a pattern or fabric you love, and while you’re at it, get a new mattress from Divan Beds Centre. You’ll find yourself not wanting to leave your bed at all!
Custom bedding
Pair off your personalised headboard with custom bedding that’s yours and yours alone. Many of the beddings available to us at retail stores just don’t have that feel or colour we want, so what you can do is to hunt for fabrics that appeal to you, and have these made into sheets that fit your bed.
When designing your bedroom, the most important thing to consider is that you create an environment that soothes you, makes you comfortable, and gives you great pleasure to relax in. Have fun in your bedroom makeover this 2015!
