Bedroom dreams

nightstands. Colour palettes are also expected to reflect natural elements as soft, classic neutrals continue to be the top choice for calm sleeping spaces.

RUGS

Bare floors aren't in style because people are opting for cozier, warmer options, but don’t rip out the wood floors just yet, cozy rugs offer the best of both worlds and can be layered to get your desired look. We are embracing comfort in 2023, and cozy rugs contribute to warm and welcoming bedroom spaces.

Statement Headboards

Forget a feature wall or feature ceiling light, and instead draw focus to your bed with a striking headboard design. Patterned upholstered headboards are a great way to bring personality into the bedroom, so it’s no surprise that they are set to be big in 2023. For a modern take, consider working against a neutral colour palette to let the pattern speak for itself. For a more traditional or eclectic approach, take the pattern and run with it! Use the colours in your headboard and add rugs, cushions, a chair, or sofa if you have the space, and make it your own.

COLOUR DRENCHING

This is a favourite with so many designers and the end result speaks for itself. Fully immerse yourself in the stylish soothing shades of 2023 by seamlessly colour drenching walls, ceiling to floor. This can make a bedroom appear bigger as one cohesive colour makes walls look never-ending. Therefore, this is a great trend to consider when re-vamping smaller rooms in particular.

ART

Although less can be more, bigger can also be better. The latter is the case for oversized artwork, another of the 2023 master bedroom trends. These pieces add personality to the room and enhance its artistic appeal. They also make great focal points due to their striking size and visual interest. This can work in a modern, neutral, or traditional bedroom, as my son says, “art is subjective”, it’s your personal space, pick something that you love and makes you smile every morning.

SCONCES

And Pendant Lights

Although pendant lights hung either side of a bed are around for a while, we are seeing this trend everywhere in 2023 hung either side of a bed, pendant lights make a pleasing symmetrical statement. Wall sconces are also seeing a huge comeback with so many now that can be plugged in; wiring isn’t an issue as these design trends work really well in small spaces and free up space on bedside furniture.

LAYERED

Textures And Prints

Texture has been trending throughout the home space in areas beyond the bedroom but putting them to use in more personal spaces can have benefits beyond aesthetics. Layering textures creates an unparalleled warmth and cocoon-like environment that can be a true oasis.

TIMELESS DESIGN

An emphasis on quality is a bedroom decorating trend with lasting appeal, the move toward more sustainable and ecologically conscious homes will mean a definite skewing toward pieces that are built to last.

No longer will a new design require a full overhaul. Instead, keeping some of the foundational pieces, allowing more periphery items to create an updated look that acknowledges the current time. Simply put, you don’t have to throw everything out for a fresh look; work with your favourite pieces, whether that’s a bed, chest of drawers or wardrobe, and change out or add new bedside tables, rugs, cushions, throws, making a big impact for a smaller budget.
