Dark and Alluring Bedrooms

Creating a cosy sanctuary is high on the list when it comes to bedroom styling and there's no denying that darker, richer tones evoke feelings of warmth and comfort. For an added sense of drama, charcoal or black walls will always deliver. Dark blues, earthy tones and my current favourite 'greige' (a combination of grey and beige) are also popular choices right now.

To create contrast, try pairing dark coloured walls with bedding in a softer hue. Alternatively, pair pale grey walls with bedlinen in deeper colours such as charcoal, navy or black. Continue the theme with interesting or moody artworks and add an array of textiles with linens, wool throws, cushions and rugs.

Lighting is also a crucial element and these bedrooms offer lots of ideas by way of pendants, wall lamps and bedside table lamps. For added texture I especially love seeing a touch of brass. Finish off with a plant or two and you'll have created a room you'll never want to leave!
