With the sun gradually setting longer days, our indoor spaces, especially our bedrooms, need to be brought up to par with cooler styles. There are elegant bedrooms in cool tones which always provide the effect of freshness and in this hot weather, which is exactly what everyone needs, a break from heat. We keep talking about cool colors as the ones that create a calming and serene atmosphere, and when it comes to bedrooms these colors are perfect.
Cool Toned Color Palette Selection:
Choosing appropriate cool toned colors lays the basic foundation for the bedroom decorating scheme. Choosing pastel colors such as baby blue, light green for calming effect and beautiful gray will help to create a feeling of serenity. When enhancing your cool toned bedroom’s ambiance, consider installing suspended ceiling tiles 600×600 to add a modern touch while maintaining a sense of spaciousness and tranquility. Perhaps, it will be effective to implement samples of different tones of a single hue to give your space a richer and layered look. Leaning more towards lighter colors contributes to the overall idea of the space while darker hues suggest warmth and depth.
Natural Textures and Fabrics:
Using textures and fabrics from nature within cool toned bedroom design will infuse warmth to the space. For accessories like bedclothes, curtains, etc., use breathable fabrics like organic cotton, linen and bamboo to help cool the area particularly during very humid nights. At West Elm, natural materials like rattan, wood, and stone incorporated in furniture and accessories create a sense of unity between the indoors and nature.
Strategic Lighting Choices:
Since cool tones dominate the cool toned bedroom, adequate amount of lighting is critical in establishing the appropriate atmosphere. Go for ambient/incandescent light sources like pendants, wall lamps, table lamps with sheer diffusers to give a softer light feel and look to the ambiance. Some other recommendations include replacing light bulbs with dimmer switches that will allow changing the light intensity depending on the time or the ambiance. Integrate lighting into the bathroom that includes the use of curtains or blinds to allow light into the room during the day while at the same time avoiding compromises on privacy.
Functional Storage Solutions:
While furnishing your cool toned room, avoid clutter by purchasing items that will act as storage solutions in addition to furniture pieces. Using several facilities such that the beds having inward drawers and ottomans that can act like storage benches can make the room more useful. Utilize baskets and bins that may be fashioned in a more decorative manner to store items and avoid clutter on counters or tables. Add floating shelves or wall units where possible for storage in the living areas if you want to maintain floor space for furniture.
Personalized Decor Accents:
Bring some of yourself into your monochromatic cool toned bedroom with some specialty accessories and furniture. Make a focus on artwork, throw pillows, and ornaments that are notable for your set interests, hobbies, and journeys. On the other hand, color blocks of warm tones such as red, orange, deep purple and yellow, placed occasionally on the floor through a rug, on a cushion or on the wall through an artwork will provide needed contrast against the cool tones of the background. Try using various things that you wish to combine in order to play with texture, pattern, as well as finish that makes the room warm and welcoming and characteristic.
