Traveling has always been a source of inspiration among artists and designers in their creations. This year, travel takes the center stage in interior design trends and these looks can give your bedroom that quirky update that it needs. After all, would’t it be a treat to wake up every morning feeling as if you are in a vacation in yet another exotic country?
The Hotel Suite
Your bedroom should be considered as one of the most luxurious rooms in your home. With a design inspired by a hotel suite, your sleeping space will feel even more elegant and relaxing, just like how hotel suites do. To get the look, incorporate soft mood lighting in the different areas of your bedroom. Mix and match classic and modern furniture pieces. And even with an average ceiling height, you can install a pretty chandelier to put this look together. For your accessories, add a hint of greens and floral in your room. Putting plants or flowers in your night stand or on the vanity makes the ambiance feel fresher.
Moroccan Glam
Take home the mystery and exoticism of Moroccan living this 2014. To achieve a dramatic yet modern Moroccan bedroom, paint your walls with white. Update the look of your furniture by painting them in white or changing them altogether. If you have been lusting over a four-poster bed, then now is the perfect time to do so. Shop for a contemporary version of this timeless furniture piece and while you’re at it, pick up some linens in white, cobalt blue and dark navy. Moroccan prints and patterns are usually zigzags or chevrons, or you can go for geometric fretwork. Pair your bed with a nice leather pouf . Accessorize your bedroom with metallic lanterns.
Scandinavian chic
Scandinavian interior design has always been considered as the “cool kid on the block” with its clean, casual and modern feel. If you want to go for a chic Scandinavian bedroom, create an airy bedroom by painting your walls in white our light gray. For the floor, bleached or light wood will help you do the trick. Scandinavian furniture can be in simple white and black colors. And then, you can throw in some graphic linens on your bed. Go all out on geometric patterns such as stripes and honeycomb in bright orange and cobalt blue.
Scottish Tartan
Tartans are making a huge comeback this 2014. This newer version, however, feels fresher and more modern and you can use this to create an industrial bedroom interior. Use teal colored, lime green or beige tartan on your linens, upholstery or in your throw pillows. Since the print can pretty much fill up your space visually, opt for a more versatile industrial surrounding. Cover your walls with wallpaper that looks similar to concrete texture. Keep your flooring simple with light wood plank and accessorize using white, black or gray lighting fixtures.
