How to create a calm respite from daily life in your sleeping quarters
Blues or blue greens in muted hues with more calming patterns can create a sense of safety and peace for you especially in the bedroom where you need to unwind at the end of the day. And because blues/greens are cooler colors they also recede giving the room a more spacious light feel.
In this master bedroom, the beautiful leaf wallpaper by Thibaut sets the scene with a restful outdoor theme while the Clark & Clark fabric on the bench and Kravet fabrics on the chairs add to the restful atmosphere of this traditional space.
On the shelves a beautiful mix of blues and greens in the sitting area nearby enhance the calming effect of the room along with paint by Benjamin Moore
Here in this master sitting area a custom designed neutral rug grounds the light airy feel of this area that has a chaise cushion covered in a beautiful velvet Kravet fabric with a Cowtan & Tout silky pillow perched on top. The adjoining chair brings a nice contrast to the blue green walls with a shimmery fabric from Clark & Clark and the pillow pattern picks up the leaf motif from the bedroom accent wall to create a cohesive feel between the spaces.
In this rustic lodge home we introduced a beautiful shimmery wallpaper behind the bed picking up variations of the color again on the Italian bedding and nearby chair pillow to create a calming feel.
