A Little Color

Tall & Simple Headboard

Add a splash of personality to an otherwise neutral bedroom with one or two brightly colored accessories. A pretty pink throw at the foot of the bed and a pair of colorful framed art prints on the wall ensure the neutral bedroom looks anything but boring. To keep the look serene, use colors with brown or gray undertones to help the hues blend into their neutral surroundings. Here, a shocking magenta throw would have been too much for this ethereal bedroom, but a dusty rose throw does the right trick.

Stick to the Basics

This stunning bedroom proves that when it comes to decorating, black and white is truly a no-fail color combination.

Go for Gray

Enhance Your Bedside

Gray is having a moment as the neutral of choice for many designers and decorators, so why not give it a try in your home, too? Gray is the star of the show in this bedroom, which features several different tones of the color. Silvery gray silk draperies and the tufted headboard upholstered with gray fabric are only a few shades darker than the barely-there gray walls. Dark wood furniture frames add dramatic contrast and helps the room feel more grounded.

Mixing Neutrals

A simple black-and-white color scheme looks anything but basic in this bedroom. A handful of natural textures -- such as the wicker-adorned headboard and the linen window shades -- in warm tones soften the contrast of the black-and-white palette. Pairing stark shades with warm-tone accents provides a smooth transition from dark to light.

Wide Open Spaces

A neutral color scheme helps emphasize the soaring height of this bedroom's ceiling. The warm off-white color of the walls reflects light streaming in from the floor-to-ceiling window next to the bed, while the white-painted four-post bed draws the eye upward. A soft area rug beneath the bed adds plush texture underfoot and helps the bedroom set feel grounded in the lofty room.
