dnzsj Q. I requirement assist with my bedroom! I have a contemporary condo, however the furniture in right here just isn’t working. The headboard as well as bedside tables are new, as well as I’d like a breast of drawers to go along the wall opposite the bed. What can I do to make it look right?

A. Wow, what a fantastic area as well as layout. But, I agree your furniture doesn’t work. It’s as well eclectic for the smooth architecture. as well as you requirement some layers to make the space feel a bit cosier. begin by painting the wall behind the bed a striking shade like fantastic gray (50BG 06/044) from Dulux. As in our motivation shot, it will supply contrast as well as produce depth.
Next, bring in some shapely bedside lamps. I like Schoolhouse Electric’s Bond lamp in Opal. The glossy hand-blown glass base has a charming vintage feel. Your present chair isn’t the ideal style, however the natural rattan material leans in the ideal direction. look for something that uses the exact same warmth, however has a a lot more fluid shape, like CB2’s 1938 Butterfly chair. The tone of the leather sling seat is an old world ruddy brown that will provide a hit of warmth as well as comfort.
Having a bench at the foot of the bed is a wise concept — the best area to toss additional bed linen as well as pillows at night. The one you have now is a bit as well rustic; take a look at the wrap bench, likewise from CB2, with its natural jute-rope seat as well as acacia frame. The style is a lot more vintage than country, which will work well with the bedside lamps.
Your new dresser must be fairly big to balance the proportions of your bed. I like the Morgan dresser from Structube. The waterfall-style walnut sides as well as top contrast the white lacquer fronts for impact, plus the lighter front indicates it won’t look as well heavy against your dark carpet.
Lastly, layer up your bed! Your crisp white duvet is a great base, however introduce a contrasting sheet set like DwellStudio’s graphic stripe in Ink to produce a lot more interest. Then, drape the Hudson’s Bay Millennium Caribou throw at the foot of your bed.
