Bedroom Wall Art: Creating a Cosy and Comfortable Retreat

 

Your bedroom is the place you escape from the stress of daily life. It should be a restful sanctuary where you can overcome the exhaustion of a busy workday. In short, a bedroom should feel safe, healthy and happy. And the decoration is vital for creating that magical feeling in your bedroom. 

Of course, you cannot achieve this with empty spots on your walls. Using bedroom wall art is the key to beautifying those bare walls and turning them into individual artworks. If you're not an experienced decorator, don't worry! Artchi is here to help you through the path of achieving a cosy and comfortable bedroom.

 

7 Tips to Create a Cosy and Comfortable Bedroom

2. Have More Light
3. Establish an Accent Wall
4. Embrace Dull Colours
5. Go Neon
6. Use Greenery to Fill the Spaces
7. Create a Gallery Wall

 

1. Create a Colour Scheme

In decoration, the colour scheme of your room is everything. In the bedroom, you should use restful colours that will allow you to wind down and rest. Dark tones of blue, brown, burgundy and bright white are also among the most preferred colours in the bedroom.

 

 

If you desire to create a minimalistic or modern look, we recommend you stick with one colour and use its different shades. If you think using a single colour makes your room look dull, you can create a colourful palette of bright colours - brighter tones of orange and brown go perfectly in the bedroom.

Since your colour scheme will be an essential part of your room, you'll have to choose your décor according to it. If warm and bright colours are dominant in the bedroom, it might be a good idea to choose metal wall art or dark-coloured canvas wall art to add a bit of contrast. However, for rooms with dark tones, preferring light-coloured décor is ideal.

 

2. Have More Light

Even though we often prefer darker bedrooms for a night of better sleep, having more light in the bedroom will give you a cosier atmosphere, boosting your overall mood and giving your room a more restful feeling. Plus, brighter colours will make your room look spacious and fresh.

 

 

If your walls are empty, you can hang some mirrors to distribute the daylight to every corner and create a sleek décor. Plus, installing sconces or placing cute candles around might be a good idea.

 

3. Establish an Accent Wall

An accent wall is perfect for creating a focal point in your room. Accent walls also change a room's overall vibe and mood, giving it a different atmosphere. While creating an accent wall, you can experiment with colours and tones, use new combinations, go against the standards and customise your bedroom as you wish.

Even though there isn't a cut-and-dried set of rules about establishing an accent wall, the best way to do so is to paint the focal wall in a brighter or darker colour than the rest of the room. However, you can also use exact opposites to create your accent wall; for example, most people prefer a black or dark grey accent colour for a white room.

4. Embrace Dull Colours

Even though we recommend using light colours, it is a fact that dull colours go really well in the bedroom. Especially if you have a spacious bedroom that gets enough daylight, there is no reason not to use a dark tone of blue, red or orange to create a magical atmosphere. 

One of the most commonly used colours in the bedroom is grey; while the colour makes a perfect choice for achieving a dim bedroom, it's not the best for a room that doesn't get so much daylight. Dark brown, orange or red are some of the most frequently preferred colours to achieve a smooth transition between tones and let your room be at least partially bright.

 

5. Go Neon

Neon art is some of the most spectacular and creative art forms. And using neon artwork is the perfect way to add personality to your bedroom and create a unique aesthetic. Especially in dim bedrooms, using neon art might create an artistic light source and help you set up a relaxing ambience before going to sleep. As a bold statement piece, this art form is among the most unusual and creative ways to enhance your room's mood.

6. Use Greenery to Fill the Spaces

If you're looking for another idea to fill up the bare walls in your bedroom, you can use plants. Greenery is the perfect way to bring the outdoors inside and give your room a more natural atmosphere. Many types of indoor plants suit well in the bedroom. 

A reason to use plants is that they reduce stress levels and improve air quality, providing a better night's sleep. Plus, growing plants is a great hobby that might be helpful in your everyday life, and they're easy to grow; with little research, you can find lots of information about how to care for a plant and which plants are the best for your bedroom.

You can buy a matching plant-themed wall art to enrich your bedroom's plant corner. This way, you can create harmony between the different types of décor in your room.

 

 

7. Create a Gallery Wall

There is no better way to reflect your personality and character in a room than ornamenting it with artwork; a gallery wall is the best way to add your artistic taste to your bedroom. 

You can create your gallery corner on the focal wall to avoid distracting the viewer's attention. Plus, the artwork should complement each other in terms of style, theme, and colour to create a sense of unity and aesthetic. If you choose a painting, you can pick a frame that matches the décor of your room as well as the colours of the artwork. However, if you prefer canvas wall art, try to select a piece that fits the colour palette of your bedroom since unmatching colours might create a distracting look.
