8 Contemporary Master bedroom Ideas from Our Professional Design Team
1. Neutral Layers
When it comes to modern bedroom design, neutral colors are the way to go. This does not mean that you have to stick to boring white walls or beige furniture. We don’t recommend it at all. Consider layering neutral colors to create a cozy, warm and inviting bedroom.
Paint colors are a great place to start. A lighter color will make the space feel bigger. Start with a warm taupe or a creamy white. Use textures, rather than colors, to add depth and interest. A hand-knotted rug on hardwood flooring and linen bedspreads with suede pillows can create a contemporary look, while keeping the color palette neutral.
2. Expressionist Artwork
It is possible to showcase your personality in a contemporary bedroom without cluttering it up with knickknacks and collectibles.
Choose a large artwork like a framed print or painting that will become the focal point of the bedroom. It can be placed above the bed, or on the dresser. A piece of interesting artwork can also be a wonderful way to bring color into a neutral color scheme.
3. Geometric Elements
Modern bedroom designs are dominated by geometric patterns and design elements.
Consider creating an accent wall with board and batten behind the bed. This is a very easy DIY project! Paint an accent wall in geometric shapes and patterns to make it eye-catching. You can also incorporate geometric patterns into bedding, throw pillows, curtains, and rugs in a more subtle way.
4. Lighting Fixtures That Catch Your Eye
It can be fun to add unexpected accents and accessories, such as a pendant light hanging from the ceiling. This can draw attention “up” in the room and create a focal point.
A pendant light is a great way to add ambient, soft light to your bedroom, without having to use bulky lamps or floor lamps. This can keep the clutter down. Fireplaces can also add warmth and comfort to a room. Consider an electric linear fire to complement the modern feel of a bedroom.
5. Natural Materials
The best contemporary bedroom ideas are those that use organic and natural materials. Furniture made of natural and eco-friendly materials is a great choice. Choose bed frames and dressers made of sustainable woods like maple or oak and bedding fabrics like cotton or linen.
Plants will add color and, as an added bonus, help to clean the air. Invite as much natural lighting as you can. Use soft, warm light bulbs to compliment the warmth and coziness of an organic modern bedroom.
6. Reflective Surfaces
Modern bedroom designs rely on plenty of natural light for the space to feel luxurious and spacious — even when the room is on the smaller side. Large windows are the most effective way to bring in natural light. However, even bedrooms with fewer windows can still have the airy, bright space necessary for modern design. How can you achieve this? Reflective surfaces.
Mirrors and other surfaces that reflect light can reflect the that is in the room to the dark corners. Hang a mirror above the bed if you have a large window opposite the bed. It will reflect light and create a focal point. Consider other reflective surfaces, such as a full-length wall mirror or glass frames, to make your space seem more spacious, bright, and airy.
7. Bright Accents
Modern bedroom designs tend to have a neutral color palette and clean lines, but that doesn’t stop you from adding a pop of color to give your room some personality!
Pick an accent colour, such as sage, lilac or deep blue and use it in several places. Choose a paint colour to paint an accent color, choose an area rug in the chosen shade or add throw pillows or blankets for a splash of color on neutral bedding.
8. Multifunctional Furniture
Minimalism is a hallmark of modern and contemporary design. It means that less is more. To avoid clutter in your small bedroom and to maintain a modernist style, consider incorporating furniture that is multifunctional.
You can, for example, install floating shelves in place of a bookshelf or a dresser to save space. When thinking about how to incorporate multifunctional furnishings into your bedroom, it is also wise to think about wall hangings with dual functionality, such as accent mirrors.
