A crazy day at the office, awkward social situations, and family woes all make us long for our beds, where we can pull up the covers and hide away. Sanctuary can be extended far beyond the sheets though. A large bedroom can provide a whole host of possibilities for unwinding: a place to lounge and read, a spot for conversation and coffee with a partner, or an open-plan bathtub for long relaxing soaks. In this collection of 40 large bedroom design ideas, we’ll look at luxurious decor ideas that make dreams come true. We’ll tour an array of headboard feature walls, stylish bedroom furniture, statement lighting, and more.

Go crazy with color. From wild murals to ombre curtains, in a large bedroom, there’s space for it all. Balance out the bold hues with a rich, natural wood ceiling treatment and a matching floor.
With an abundance of bedroom floor space, there are opportunities for fun furniture pieces. Team a chaise lounge chair with a floor lamp to fashion a comfortable reading nook.
Nurture an earthy decor scheme with chunky timber elements, natural stone accents, and jute rugs. Add rattan accents like these pretty bedroom pendant lights and ceiling fan with light.
A large bay window is an ideal place to create a bedroom lounge area. Here, a curved sofa perfectly fills the spot. A magnificent circle chandelier complements the curved couch.
These circle chandeliers fill a pastel pink bedroom with floral whimsey.

Whether you have an amazing panoramic view or you want to gaze upon the stars, installing larger windows and skylights takes a large bedroom to the next level.
If the wall at the end of the bed is too far away for optimum TV viewing, consider a post-mounted TV instead.

When floor space is limited but ceilings are high, a mezzanine level is a perfect way to extend usable living space. Since headroom is often restricted in mezzanine rooms, it’s sensible to give your platform a purpose that doesn’t require a generous ceiling height. This limitation is not a problem in a room where you plan to lie down most of the time, like a bedroom. Furthermore, by tucking a sleep space up away from an open plan living space, more privacy is attained. In this collection of 40 mezzanine bedrooms, we’ll look at concepts of all sizes and aesthetics, along with tips to help you design yours.
A partial mezzanine retains ceiling height in the living space, whilst shifting the bed up off the floor. A librarian ladder access point needs little floor space, and the ladder can be used to reach high shelves in the room too.
A natural wood mezzanine structure adds beautiful warmth and texture to a high-ceilinged interior. Apply a plethora of lush green indoor plants to add to the rustic aesthetic.
Large loft apartments offer plenty of ceiling height and width to create a luxurious, fully-fledged bedroom space. Maintain the airy mezzanine look with open metalwork balustrades or glass panels that share natural light.
If you desire more privacy, a half-height mezzanine floor can be filled in with attractive panelling. Apply muxarabi screens or porthole windows to allow in a trickle of natural light from the living space. See more images here.
This glass wall mezzanine bedroom drinks in all of the natural light available. Underneath, a solid-sided volume houses a windowless bathroom and an attractively backlit entryway closet.
To save space on the ground, a small mezzanine or lofted bed structure can be suspended from the ceiling. A permanent staircase should work double duty as everyday storage.
Wood louvre walls and doors provide a level of privacy and spatial divide whilst maintaining airflow and light share.
Disguise a mezzanine staircase as a tiered bookcase design.
On a long, narrow platform, combine the bedroom space with a home library. Shallow bookshelves make good use of a confined walkway.
Keep colours light and uplifting in compact spaces. A white background will visually open up the space. Green accents will trick the brain into enjoying a fresh outdoor feel.
Lay a mezzanine bedroom over a lounge area. A low ceiling height over a sofa isn’t a big deal when you’re sitting down.
Choose an open staircase design with no risers to make a light impact on a small space.
Fashion a mezzanine staircase out of kitchen cabinets.
A glass floor will ensure that sunlight flows into the space below a mezzanine. This bedroom design utilises a Murphy bed to keep the glass floor clear throughout the day.
Make use of a small landing area with a mini closet.
By pushing the bed out on a limb, this mezzanine layout makes space for a dedicated home office area.
Another nifty staircase idea, these treads extrude directly out of a floor-to-ceiling built-in bookcase.

A small kitchen slides underneath the slope of this industrial metal staircase design. Black metal balustrades create a bold cage around the bedroom.
Fashion a bedroom right above the front door.
A skylight fills this elevated bedroom area with natural light. The shaded area beneath it makes a projector-friendly living room.
An all-white interior helps to streamline the appearance of a mezzanine level, its adjoining staircase, and an integrated kitchen beneath.
White decor fades this raised bedroom area into the background, whilst its wooden structure makes a warm focal wall for the living room.
Sculpt an abstract minimalist vision with overlapping white volumes.
Create definition between the bedroom and living zone with colour.
In kids’ bedrooms, a mezzanine platform opens up more space for play and study.
This lofted bed makes room for a kid’s TV lounge.
Create an inviting window seat halfway up a mezzanine staircase to further enhance the living space.
Distract the eye from a mezzanine by employing bright and bold living room accent furniture.
Make the most of your extra floor space by giving the mezzanine a dual purpose. A sofa bed means that you can use the area as a lounge during the day.
Get creative with balustrade design to gain a positive feature rather than a safety obligation.
Neatly integrate your design with towers of colour. This black volume slots in satisfyingly alongside a baby blue focal wall. See more inspiration here.
Carve out a curvaceous design.
Create a cosy nook away from the hubbub. See more images of this space-saving tiny apartment in New York here.
Build your bedroom around a skylight and you’ll be dreaming under the stars.
Erect a central cube to leave large windows unobstructed.
This bold bedroom cube has a freestanding aesthetic. Its dark wood tone creates contrast from the rest of the white living space, which forms a striking TV wall and open-fronted wardrobe.
You won’t even notice that you’re passing beneath the bedroom as you pass through this stylish front entryway.
Slimline laconic materials are key in this barely-there mezzanine design.
Access every inch of potential storage space with your mezzanine staircase.
Line the underside of your platform with attractive wood panelling to create a cosy feature.
Make one small space fit all by incorporating an end-of-bed home office with a sunken footwell, an under-bed wardrobe, and a convenient vanity area.

Boho decor is a fun way to add relaxed character and cosiness to a bedroom design. The boho style is adaptable to many different kinds of base decor too, so you can always add a twist to a pre-existing Scandi-style space or a cool urban scheme. Despite its plethora of accessory options, the bohemian interior style is even suitable for minimalists. It only takes a few small additions to add a hint of bohemian flavour. Think natural materials, such as wicker baskets, rattan pendant lights, jute rugs, and wooden furniture. Add softness through an assortment of accent cushions and throws. Here are 51 boho bedrooms with ideas, tips and accessories to help you design yours.
Boho relief art. Whether raised from a canvas or created directly onto the wall, 3D relief art goes hand-in-hand with the textural bohemian aesthetic.
Spread boho style accessories evenly. If you don’t wish to go too deep with layering then space key pieces at regular intervals around the room. Handmade art over the headboard, a wicker pendant light, a boho bedroom chair, and a rustic planter are enough to instil a subtle essence without going overboard.

Create one focal piece. An archway acts as the perfect jumping-off point for boho wall decor. Paint the architectural feature in a warm beige colourway to contrast with a pale grey or white decor scheme, and hang a handwoven element at its centre.
If a new architectural feature isn’t in the budget, then consider a surface-mounted arch.
A hand-painted archway is a cheap and efficient way to hit the trend. You can accessorise with an arch-shaped mirror too.
Buy into the botanical theme. Indoor plants make perfect companions for the earthy boho look. Alternatively, you can opt for leafy art prints and wallcoverings.
As light as a feather. Boho decor schemes work well under all sorts of colour schemes, from dark and dramatic to colourful and joyous. However, there is something so very calming about a white, pale grey, or greige boho bedroom. This one employs feather decals to give the scheme an ever lighter, airier look.
The joy of jute. When it comes to boho rugs, it’s all about texture. A round jute rug makes a fitting natural base for the aesthetic whilst also complementing a curvaceous arched motif.
The power of the pendant. When choosing a light fitting, go large with a Bell wicker pendant to achieve visual impact.
If your budget won’t stretch to a large light fitting, a group of small wicker pendants can be easier on the pocket.
Hang a rug. Whether on the floor or the wall, a handwoven rug can instantly transform a boho bedroom colour scheme.
Thnk outside the wicker basket. Just because wicker pendants are leaders in boho bedroom decor, that doesn’t mean you can’t opt for a more chic bedroom chandelier. This tasselled light fixture works elegantly with understated wooden furniture and pretty botanical prints.
Anything goes. Industrial accessories, rustic feature walls, or farmhouse ceilings. Anything goes in the world of boho.
Uber chic with boho sprinkles. This elegant bedroom design merely hints at the bohemian trend. Indoor plants soften the focal wall between contemporary pendant lights, whilst wooden tables add character around a modern floor lamp.
Nearly neoclassical. This boho bedroom scheme is layered against panel moulding to give it a classical elegance. A dark green paint finish beautifully ties the two aesthetics together.
Make sunshine with yellow ochre accents. This warm hue makes cheerful contrast with natural greenery and black anchors.
Slats and stripes. The wood-slatted interior trend melds easily with the boho natural material palette. Add a striped bedroom rug to exaggerate the linear effect.
Take it to the floor. A low-level platform bed or floor bed design conveys a relaxed look.
Raw and rustic. You may think that raw concrete decor is synonymous with the industrial decor trend but it’s a friend of boho too, Team with rustic light-fittings and furniture to warm the visual.
Of course, you’re not limited to only raw wooden furniture with this trend. An upholstered bed has a softening effect on the scheme – and won’t hurt so much if you walk into it at night!
Feel free to exaggerate. It’s not always nice to exaggerate but when it comes to statement light fittings then we’re all about it.
Reshape a Scandi-style space. Clean-cut Scandinavian decor schemes make great vessels for layering in the boho look.
In this minimalist boho Scandi setting, it’s all about the plants
A stage for awesome finds. This split-level bedroom design forms a plinth on which to display a bright bed set and boldly underline a set of incredible bedroom pendant lights.
Black boho bedrooms. Out of the comfort zone for some, the black bedroom aesthetic is dramatically dreamy. You don’t have to go all-out though. Just pick one or two accent walls to turn up the intensity.
Pieces with personality. Source handmade or shapely items to give your space a unique personality, like this extraordinary end of bed bench.
Layer stripped wood floors with a multitude of rugs in different sizes, comfy floor cushions, and woven poufs.
Don’t miss an opportunity to add texture and detail. Even a simple bed throw becomes elevated with a tasselled edge.
Renter-friendly boho decor. If you’re renting your home, you might be limited from putting up wall decor and changing light fittings. Instead, source lightweight pieces that can be mounted with Command strips, or bring in a boho screen for a freestanding solution.
Fairy lights can make almost any space into a cozy bedroom. Wrap them around the headboard, a mirror frame, or string across the ceiling for instant magic.
Blue boho. Break out of the land of neutrals with a royal blue focal wall. This deep hue makes a rich companion for natural wood, cane, and wicker furniture.
Sky blue accessories make a soothing combination alongside cream stucco walls.
A masterful master bedroom. Create a commanding presence with colossal light fittings. These pendants are paired with corresponding coloured bedside tables, creating a white pairing on one side of the room, and brown-black counterparts on the other.
Another extraordinary pendant light design, this time descending from a ceiling of exquisitely aged wooden beams.
A journey of discovery. The boho aesthetic encourages loose layering and meandering layouts. This bedroom design incorporates a lounge area and open plan ensuite, broken apart by low-hanging lights and decorative screening. The effect is bemusing, intriguing, and sublime.
High-end hotel vibes. Deep emerald green accents with rich wood wall panels and a symmetrical layout creates a luxury getaway.
Polished concrete floors and a built-in bed forms a fluid layout.
Moroccan moments. A detailed Moroccan bed design makes a decorative addition for a boho backdrop.
Calm and controlled. In this relaxing modern bedroom scheme, boho influences enter two by two.
Restrained and restful. A pared back colour palette and limited accessories fashion a restful decor scheme. Add just a dash of visual interest with a patterned rug or floral display.

A bedroom you’ll never want to leave. Take cosy throws and oodles of cushions, add a library wall, and you may create a bedroom that you’ll never want to leave.
Boho bedroom sets. Not all furniture has to be mismatched or upcycled to fit this laid-back theme. Wood and cane bedroom sets fit the profile too. You can always add a little relaxed asymmetry with a strip of wall panelling, wood-slatting, or a large macrame wall hanging.
Another sophisticated boho theme with symmetry. This time with dainty pedestal side tables, mini bedroom pendant lights and wall art.
Curate a colourful gallery wall with abstract pieces…
Or, fashion an elaborate art statement with 3D elements.
Hammocks and swing chairs hit the easygoing look just right.
Tell a creative story with standout moments, such as this unique bedroom pendant light, extra-chunky tasselled throw, and extraordinary plants.
Create boho glamour with reflective wall treatments and mood lighting.
Small and succinct. Plants, wicker baskets, macramé, a cosy throw, and a plethora of cushions are all you need to succeed in a compact space.
If you are not a naturally tidy person, then a boho bedroom could be your friend. No one is going to notice that you didn’t tuck in your bed clothes under layers of throws. And, belongings don’t need to be organised onto shelves when there are a bunch of baskets to throw them into.
Create boho vignettes. A wicker chair with a canopy over top or a vintage chest stacked with books, magic lies in small moments.

Dark, mysterious, and dreamy, this huge gallery of 51 dark bedroom design ideas is filled with interior inspiration, tips and accessories to help you design yours. We’ll explore a large cross-section of black and dark grey bedroom decor schemes that set a stylish stage in the deep shadows, across a selection of neoclassical, modern, baroque and industrial aesthetics. With that said, dark doesn’t necessarily mean colourless or neutral. We also bring a selection of darkly coloured decor schemes across the deep blue and green arena, along with some luxe golden accents. You’ll find inspiration for unique headboards, eye-catching feature walls, spectacular bedroom lighting, and showstopping bedroom furniture too.
Super-size it. This dark bedroom design not only goes bold on tone with a moody mural headboard wall but the bed gets scaled up with a super wide platform base. The combination achieves a luxurious aesthetic that oozes confidence.
Black opulence with a side of mood lighting. This textural black headboard wall is atmospherically lit by a ribbon of LED light, which subtly stripes around the edge of a deeply wood-clad window reveal.
Teal dreams. Take a walk on the dark side with a base of rich teal and muted aubergine accents to create a sumptuous sleep space. A gold wall light and matching floor lamp splice in bright lustre.
Turn up the texture. When opting for a dark backdrop, consider introducing deep texture to add interest. This fabulously 3D headboard feature wall makes a tactile statement, whilst a handmade bedroom pendant light drops rustic vibes over top.
Another unique bedroom statement wall, this time with large format tiles in a series of vertical and horizontal orientations that catch the light differently.
The illuminated headboard line. A shallow slab headboard can be brought to life with a recessed ribbon of LEDs to create an uplifting bedroom feature.
Black and white distinction. Turn contrast up to the max by pairing your black bedroom features with crisp white elements. Keep accessories simple to attain a striking minimalist effect.
In this high-contrast black and white design, a statement lighting installation loops a tangle of highlights above a casually styled upholstered bed. Intriguing black and white artwork lines the walls.
Light strip series. This dark bedroom design features a series lighting strips to accentuate and define. One provides safe passage across a split level floor, two draw along the edges of a custom cut bedside mirror, and the final beam is an eye-catching oblique installation that is as much decor as it is reading light.
Get ready for the light show. This colour-changing light installation is made more impressive by a textured backdrop that scatters the glow.
Matching motifs. Inside this dark brown and black bedroom design, a piece of bedroom wall decor is made to match a wooden storage unit at the side of the room. Behind one of the bedside cabinets, wall stripes are added to echo the striped nature of the veneer.
Decorative zoning. Headboard feature walls are regularly used to define the sleeping area, but how about installing a custom ceiling treatment to mark entry into an ensuite bathroom or a bedroom courtyard?
Open plan bathtub areas and glass wall ensuite bathrooms allow dark bedroom designs to feel more spacious, which combats the oppressive nature of dark tones.
Panel your perimeter. Elegant panel moulding is a golden ticket to creating an effective neoclassical bedroom design, which looks phenomenal under a silky matt black coating. Add in a stunning bedroom chandelier for ultimate splendour.
Black baroque. Is there anything more fitting for a black bedroom backdrop than the intricacies of baroque design?
Dark blue and balanced. Dark blue is brought out of the shadows in the modern bedroom treatment with vibrant sunshine yellow accent pieces.
This dark bedroom concept takes the ‘dark’ side a little literally with a sombre reminder of how many days of life there is left to live. Of course, nobody really knows how long they have on this rock, so always live for today!
Green says go. Black canvases make a strong anchor for brighter elements, like these fresh and energising green bed accents. A green desk chair adds zest to a cool home office area that’s fashioned behind the headboard too,
Whitewashed boards make a breezy feature across a grey bedroom, which stylishly amalgamates the bed with a bedroom workspace.
It’s all in the details. When decorating in dark colours, it’s fun to add just a couple of colourful accessories to shake up the visual, like these eye-catching tinted glass vases.
Paint with light. Use bedroom pendant lights to fashion form and colour against black bedroom walls. Think of your light fixtures as jewellery for your bedroom.

In this imaginatively lit space, the ceiling light is a simple perimeter strip, which leaves an artistic grid lamp to steal the show.
Glamorous goals. Utilise high ceilings to install towering works of glamorous art, a colourful accent wall, and sculptural pendant lights. This dark bedroom features tall bespoke bookcases too, which add their own colourful accents and draw the eye up toward the rafters.
Double height darkness. In this double height bedroom, dark finishes help to visually unite a first floor sleep space and a mezzanine dressing room. Black coated ceiling beams strike a bold industrial aesthetic through the space.

Slip through the cracks. Clever cutaways are illuminated with LED light to create a bedroom accent wall with artistic appeal. A black jute rug adds texture to the floor.

Dark and floral. This impactful wallcovering brings the beauty of nature right to the pillow, along with two graceful bird themed pendant lights.
Mirrored optical illusions. When a space is darkly decorated, it pays to make the most of natural light sources with the help of reflective surfaces. In this dark grey bedroom, mirrored panels have been fitted from floor-to-ceiling to double the light and the sense of space.
A hint of pink softens a dark scheme. Introduce just a flush of blush across pillows, art and accent lighting.
Wireframed wonder. Without taking away from the dark blue decor of this space, a thin wireframe bedroom chandelier drops in a cool sculptural outline.
The power of a vertical garden wall. Inside a dark bedroom scheme, the lush green palette of nature is all the more touching.
