Green
Green is known as a happy colour, and shades like pear green are best suited for bedrooms. Varieties of yellow-green colours have become common in Indian homes through modern furniture and other decorative items. You can also incorporate decorative elements in tones of pink or ash grey to tone down the vibrant hues. Consider adding black straight lines to give more dimensions to the room. Geometric or chevron patterns can help add more character to a room with green walls.
Purple
Violet is a luxurious and stylish colour that adds a playful personality to your bedroom. Different tones of purple allow you to experiment with designs and forms. Typically violet walls are paired with decorative pieces in yellows and grays. Try using different textures and patterns in pink, blue, and yellow to go with your purple walls.
Blue
Blue is a popular bedroom colour. It gives a relaxed vibe which is exactly what you need in your bedroom. Warmer tones of blue make an excellent choice for bedrooms. Colours like indigo add a sense of richness and comfort. Besides, these shades have a very traditional appeal. Balance out blue interiors with white wardrobes and shelves. You can pick a slightly different shade of blue for the curtains.
Always avoid choosing a single colour for every surface as it can give the room a flat look. Pick various patterns and textures in different shades of blue to add more character to your room. Blue walls make for a perfect backdrop for rustic furniture. Traditional prints like Kantha and Ikkat also look great on blue walls. Consider furnishings in shades of orange or yellow to add a striking element. You can use white and brown to give your interiors an elegant look. Vintage lamps, paintings, and ceramic vases look perfect against a blue backdrop.
Amber Yellow
Yellow in bedrooms is not a common sight, but modern trends bring such shades on bedroom walls. Also, it is an Indian colour and is mostly seen in living rooms and kitchens. Warm hues look great in bedrooms and help uplift your mood as you wake up in the morning. Tones of brown and gold are also making their way on interior walls. Walls in shades of yellow, create a perfect backdrop for showcasing your plant. Colours like navy blue, grey-purple, slate grey complement backdrops painted in shades of yellow.
Burgundy
Burgundy or wine is also an excellent shade for bedrooms. If you are looking to add a snug and cozy feel to your bedroom, warm colours will make a perfect choice. But the selection of the right palette can be tricky, especially if you prefer dramatic and intense shades. Shades like burgundy are exciting colours for bedroom walls and help keep other design elements muted—pick neutral shades of peach, white, champagne, and grey for furniture and curtains. White bedding or painting framed in white looks great against warm-coloured walls.
Grey or Charcoal
Shades of grey are no longer boring paired with the right set of decorative elements. Grey makes a soothing choice for bedrooms. Here, the trick is to allow other colours to work their magic on the walls. Using vibrant curtains, furniture, and wall hanging helps cut down the monotony.
If you prefer to spend time in a peaceful surrounding, consider using sheer white curtains across the room.
