Creating Harmony with Better Bedroom Design and Decoration
Posted under: Most of the people have a chaotic life filled with work, errands, and chores that must be done. A good bedroom design plays a major role in giving your body the rest it needs.
You don’t have to be a professional decorator to have a basic understanding of the key elements of home décor. Knowing what these elements are before you decorate a bedroom helps to ensure that you achieve two of the most fundamental elements when it comes to successful interior design – balance and symmetry. Here is how with better bedroom design you can make your space more harmonious:
Balance and Symmetry
Balance and symmetry are the elements that achieve an overall harmony within the design choices made when decorating a bedroom – or any room.
When we use the term “balance”, it means that no one area or element of the room overpowers, or is “more important” than other areas or elements. This does not imply that having a focal point in your bedroom is “wrong.”
A focal point is an element in the room that the eye is drawn to first. In many cases when decorating a bedroom this will be the bed. It could also be a dynamic, colorful mural on a wall. Perhaps it is an ornate dresser or mirror. It could be the view out of the bedroom window. Understanding the element of balance when decorating a bedroom assists you when making choices outside of the focal point.
Symmetry impacts this overall sense of a balanced, unified visual impact when decorating a bedroom. There are three types of symmetry:
- Rotational Symmetry - A simple example of rotational symmetry is a flower. In a flower, the petals rotate around a central point. How you might use rotational symmetry when decorating a bedroom would be to place a grouping of mirrors on a wall with smaller mirrors encircling a larger mirror.
- Reflective Symmetry – If you place an object against a mirror, the image is reflected – in other words, a “mirror image.” When decorating your bedroom you would be using reflective symmetry by placing the same bedside tables at either side of the bed. Another example of reflective symmetry can be two, same size pieces of framed art hung on a wall. A further example is placing two of the same vases at either end of a dresser.
- Translational Symmetry - This type of symmetry repeats a specific element in a pattern where the element is repeated at equal distances, or distances that are different, but keep to a repeated pattern of the same sequence of distance. Think of patterns on wallpaper and tile patterns.
The Usual Suspects: Line, Texture and Color
Now that we’ve got a basic grasp of the importance of balance and symmetry when decorating a bedroom we are ready to talk about elements of décor that most of us are more familiar with: color, texture, and line. We now know the importance of considering how particular choices we make as to color, texture, and line must relate themselves to the balance and symmetry within the room.
Lines Aren’t Always Straight
When we think of a line it usually brings to mind straight lines, such as lines that form a square or a box. However, there are many kinds of lines and they certainly are not all straight. Lines on your designer quilt covers can be horizontal, vertical, parallel, diagonal, curved, wavy, zigzag, dashed, or dotted. It is important to recognize that the impact of line in a room should also take into consideration that lines are not all one dimensional. The edges of particular items in a bedroom create lines.
Texture: Can you feel it?
When you decorate a bedroom you will create surfaces. A table top has a surface. A wall has a surface. Even curtains and quilt covers have a surface. There are many types of surfaces. Surfaces are most always categorized as either smooth or rough, however, there are many gradients of what can be called smooth and what can be called rough. When you decorate a bedroom you have the opportunity to use texture as an element that creates a particular character or “feel” to the room.
Color My World
Color is perhaps the element most of us think we can deal with no matter how much, or how little, decorating experience we have. At the same time, once you’re staring at paint chips, choosing what color (or color scheme) you want to use when decorating a bedroom can be a daunting experience.
Hopefully you have found the inspiration you need to come up with the right combination of ideas for you to transform your room into the oasis you need and desire. Remember, you can achieve a creative bedroom design that is fun and exciting as well as restful, all you need to do is start!

Old To New – Revamping Your Old Furnishings
Ever thought of revamping your old furnishings? Buying new furniture is an expensive proposition for many people. While it might be a nice thought to be able to go out and buy new furniture whenever you want, it isn’t always an option.
However, you can breathe new life into your old furnishings with relative ease, and without spending a fortune in the process. Depending on how deep into the process you go, you could change the look of a single piece or the feeling of an entire room for less than one new quality piece of furniture would cost you.
Try a New Coat of Paint
If you have pieces of wood furniture, putting a new coat of paint on them can make them look brand new – probably for less than $50 per piece. The process of painting a piece of wood furniture can be a little scary at first, but it really isn’t third hard.
- Start by sanding the original piece of furniture down. Start with heavy grade sandpaper before moving to something finer for the final bit.
- Cover the piece of furniture with a coat of primer if the wood is different colors. You can skip this step if you’re planning to paint the furniture a dark color like brown or black.
- Paint the furniture evenly with a roller. Allow the paint to dry completely before applying a second coat if necessary.
- Seal the paint once it has dried with a layer of polyurethane. It will help keep the paint from becoming quickly scratched and damaged through regular use. You can choose flat polyurethane or glossy polyurethane depending on what you think will work best with the rest of your décor.
It should be noted that some paint companies make paint designed to go right over the top of a manufacturer’s coat of paint. These can be very effective for pieces made of other materials that can’t be sanded down like high-density MDF, but generally aren’t necessary for real wood pieces, and the results often aren’t as good.

Put a Glass Top on It
One of the simplest things you can do with an old table, desk, dresser or nightstand to make it look like a new piece is to simply clean it up and put a glass top on it. Glass tops can be cut to the right size for very little money, and they can add an elegant look to your room while helping to cover up the minor imperfections of an old piece.
Glass tops that have to be cut with rounded corners or edges tend to cost a little more, and beveled tops generally cost a little more than that. However, the price of a piece of glass is still very low when compared with buying a new piece of furniture.
If you’re covering a table or desk, look for a thicker piece of glass. It will look better and will stand up better to regular use. Nightstands, coffee tables and small pieces will generally allow you to get away with a thinner piece of glass.
Have it Reupholstered
Pieces of furniture that are upholstered like sofas, lounge chairs and dining chairs don’t have to be discarded or given away if the fabric gets damaged. In most cases, reupholstering a piece of furniture will considerably more affordable than buying a new piece, and best of all, the piece will look practically brand new anyway.
Unless you have years of experience, you probably shouldn’t try and reupholster your old furnishings. While you can find your own fabric, you’ll want to get a qualified upholsterer in your area to let you know how much you’ll really need to get the job done. The amount of fabric you need can be relatively deceiving, especially if patterns need to be railroaded to give the appropriate look.

Painting your furniture, putting a glass top on old pieces and reupholstering soft pieces are all effective ways to make old furniture look new without breaking the bank. However, these are only a few ideas.
When it comes to revamping your space, the important part is to be creative and do what matches your style and home. Using what you have may take a little bit of work on your part, but you’ll save a lot of money in the long run with your old furnishings.

Design a Cozy Reading Nook
Your bedroom is for the rest, and the living room is for lounging. So where do you retreat when you want to be romanticized by Rumi’s passionate poetry or wander to exotic lands by reading sci-fi adventure novels? Design a creative and an intimate reading nook with the following ideas:
Vintage Velvet Loveseat for Reading Nook
Use a piece of furniture designated solely for reading nook where you can loose yourself in a book of your choice. A plush vintage velvet loveseat accented with buttons, and wooden legs create a unique, retro reading space. Kick up your legs for a relaxing Sunday afternoon of bonding with Jack Kerouac on the open road. If you’re really engrossed in a fictional novel page-by-page, you may find yourself hanging over the loveseat’s arm— one hand clutching a book, one hand balancing a glass of Pinot Grigio. Create a charming space with an old-fashioned loveseat in champagne, gold, royal blue or mint green.

Quilt & Pillows for Reading Nook
Especially during dark and frigid winter nights, entangle yourself in a colorful, lush quilt. For the bookworm whose adventures exist between books covers, a beautiful and luxurious quilt is a worthwhile investment. The vibrant and wayward Pilar Quilt or the romantic floral Jolie Quilt will provide the most comforting reading nook for your imaginative journeys. Toss matching pillows in the loveseat’s corners and even scatter pillows on a floor rug in case you move to the ground.

Alfresco Decor for Reading Nook
Accenting your nook with greenery and floral, whether artificial or alive, invites endless possibilities of nature into your home. Set a tall plant beside your loveseat so its large green leaves tower over you as if you’re nestled high in the treetops of the rain forest. On a small end table, set a vase with wild flowers next to the designated spot where your book resides. If your reading nook has a window, line miniature potted plants along the windowsill. As the sunshine streams through your organically accessorized window pane past a cascading drapery, you’ll be swept away into a far-off place of natural seclusion and wonderment. Natural sunlight and plant life also help calm the mind, whether you’re reading fantastical tales and tragic love stories or textbooks on visual and concept development.

Accent Wall
If your nook is comprised of two cornering walls, make an aesthetic statement by painting an accent wall a solid color, colorful stripes or an erratic pattern. Using warm colors such as yellow, orange and coral, paint vertical streaks on the wall to emulate sunshine pouring down. Be bold and create a strong energy by painting your accent wall crimson red or go romantic and delicate by painting the wall sea foam green or soft violet.
An alternative to transforming a wall with paint is to make over the space with inspirational wall hangings and decor. Frame quotes from great American writers such as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Margaret Fuller and F. Scott Fitzgerald. Surrounding yourself with timeless poetic words such as “what lies behind you and what lies in front of you, pales in comparison to what lies inside of you” (Emerson) and “the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, made to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time…” (Kerouac). Also, loosely, and chaotically, decorating wall space with vintage world maps or pages of poetry creates an intimate space for dreams and fantasies.

Create Zen in Your Home by Adding Blue to the Bedroom
How do you feel when you’re gazing upon the ocean? Or lying in the green grass looking up at the cloudless afternoon sky? I’m going to guess that you feel much like the majority of humankind feels when seeing blue — peaceful, calm and relaxed. Throughout history, people have turned to color in order to provoke different feelings and treatments of ailments. Blue was thought to treat pain and soothe illnesses. On the contrary, blue can also be cold and somewhat depressing, if too dark or stark.
It’s a delicate balance of color and texture, finding ways to soothe your soul as you drift to sleep each night only to awaken feeling refreshed and ready for a new day. From blue bedroom to bath, the calmness of a deep-dark color palette can certainly ease your mind, but what other tones and hues should you mix in and how?
Walls
If you’re in a hot climate, adding cool blues is a good option. Pair them with other cool colors like gray, silver and cream. According to Houzz.com, your sanctuary could trick your brain to think it’s cooler outside. Think about painting one accent wall a deep, rich blue offset with the other colors like brown or orange. A light, china blue could cover the entire room as it creates an airy atmosphere. And while we don’t love white walls necessarily, we do love setting white against a blue background.
Consider a white headboard against a blue-violet wall with white roses and accessories.
Bedding
From dusty blueberry to striped navy and white, blue is a popular bedding hue that coordinates with any room theme. If you’re going to lean toward the soothing and peaceful side of design, choose colors that coordinate with other feelings you’d like to evoke and that are pleasing to the eye. Adding steel blue, silver and pearl can give you the sense of ocean and a free spirit. With white pillows against a serene blue wall or headboard, feel elegance in the wind. Consider purple flowers for a pop of interest in your blue bedroom.
Flooring
With stone, tile or carpet, slate blue looks great on the floors. If you want to add an explosion of color with bright blue flooring, be very careful in the bedroom not to over do it. Maybe a blue shag throw under a baby blue or white chair could be charming. If using blue as your main color palette, there’s no reason to confuse things with a blue floor. Leave that for design centers, kitchens and retail stores. Wood flooring is warm and natural and works well with any shade of blue.
Curtains
If you need to minimize light, choose a heavy curtain with blue accents that coordinate with your bedroom color palette. With the attempt to keep peace in the room, consider a natural blind or shade, such as bamboo. If the daylight is welcomed, a sheer blue window treatment can add a softness to your space.
Accessories
Sometimes, you just need to add one item in the room to highlight the color you intend to focus on. Toss a white shag rug under a bright blue chair. Paint one small distant wall in the room the blue of your choice. Green paired with blue can give a feeling of harmony. Tie in some green into your blue sanctuary and let the earth and sky come together in your bedroom assuring you a peaceful space.
Let us know how you did your blue bedroom in the comments fellas.

Colour Ranges

It is easy with the new colour ranges and wacky wallpapers to incorporate bright, lively decorating schemes. Annabell Smith, Style Director for Livingetc Paints, says you can add interest and depth with the new paint ranges. One suggestion is to try two-tone decorating.

Using a light pink against a soft, subtle gray/green is perfect for a flattering, romantic transformation.
Lighting Accessories

Personal Bits and Bobs

Top 3 Feng Shui Tips for Your Living Room
The living room is the space where people, whether your own family members or guests, come together and interact with each other. So, living rooms should enhance peace, serenity and harmony. Here are some Feng Shui tips that can be applied to your living room regardless of whether it is small or large in size. You should feel really safe, comfortable and positive while spending your time in your living area, which might thus help to enhance the overall quality of your life.
Feng Shui Compass
Construction:
You can try to incorporate Feng Shui from the construction phase of the living room. It is always good to have a living room with a regular shape. It should have enough space for the energy to flow around and should not feel (regardless of actual size) as being too big or too small.
You can do this by using the appropriate kind of flooring or paint colors that make the room feel just big enough in size. The living room should not be higher than the dining room. It is not good to have more than 2 doors in the living room. If feasible, you can close some of them or use curtains to hide their presence. Moreover, ideal ratio of doors to window is 1:3.
Furnishings of living room:
You need to paint your living room with light and lively colors such as pinks, blues, whites etc. There should be enough natural lighting to uplift chi as per Feng Shui. Dark corners can be lighted with artificial lights so as to bring more chi to the entire living room. Furniture should be placed in such a way that it promotes conversation. Also, all furniture should face the door so that all people sitting would have a clear view of the door. But, sofas should not be too close to any door or window. It is not good to go for L shaped or floating furniture arrangements. Moreover, try to place guests in the commanding position as much as possible.
Objects for living room:
You can hang family photos on the east wall in the living room to augment significance of family. Mirrors should not be placed in a living room in such a way that it reflects the main door because it will deflect all energy. Mirrors should be placed in such a way that it reflects views that you wish to see again and again.
Do not hang pictures of aggressive animals in your living room. Use lights, plants with round leaves or mirrors to make dull corners more positive. You can have a fish tank in the north of your living room as it is a very good item to bring in good chi as per Feng Shui. As a basic rule, keep your living room clean and tidy. For many apartments where space is a major constraint, family room and living room are combined together. In such cases, try to place your television or sound system in such a way that it does not disturb guests or family members who wish to have a peaceful conversation.
Hope these top 3 Feng Shui tips will help in doing some good to your living room.

Outdoor Living Spaces – 5 Tips for a Great Design
Nowadays, people aren’t just concerned about how their homes look from the inside; they also want their outdoor living spaces to look interesting too. In a way the outdoor of your home is a lot more important than the interior as it will give the first impression of how your house is from the inside.
However, that is not the only reason why people have started spending so much on outdoor living spaces. Most folks do it because they want a beautiful and peaceful place to relax when they are bored of staying at home.
A nicely designed and decorated outdoor space will give you what you are looking for, but it is important to put some time and consideration into the planning stage. To assist in this I have prepared a list of 5 tips which will help you in designing the perfect outdoor space.
Here are some points to take into consideration when doing your outdoor living spaces:
Be Prepared
First of all you need to be prepared. Look for inspiration for the space that you are planning to create. Some great inspiration can be found in home and garden magazines, or websites such as Houzz or Pinterest.
You will also need to take space into consideration. If you have a smaller area, you don’t want to fill it with unnecessary junk. We suggest planning out the area on a piece of paper before going out and buying anything.
Be Creative
Creativity is the one thing you cannot go without when designing. Be creative and find designs that immediately appeal to the eye. A great feature to have in the garden is a water fountain, as it not only gives the garden a focal point, it also adds serenity to the space.
You can also bring a lot of creativity in when lighting the area. Remember that the primary look of the space at night will be dependent on the lights so you need to be careful about what kind you are installing.
Be Bold
When decorating your outside space don’t be afraid to be bold. Your outdoor area is a great place to experiment with different ideas, so have fun with it.
Color is essential here, bear in mind that where outdoor spaces are concerned, bold, bright and vibrant colors make your yard a more fun place to be.
Be Mindful
Many people get carried away while decorating their outdoors. This is why you need to be mindful of your budget when decorating the space. Do not spend a bulk amount on furniture if you do not have enough, instead, if you really want something, save up for it and then buy. Another great tip is to wait until the end of the summer season and buy your outdoor furniture during a furniture sale.
Be Consistent
This is the one thing that needs to be remembered whether you are decorating the internal or external part of your house. If you are going for a theme, then stick to it, do cautious if you mix and match otherwise it might end up looking like this:
There is a lot to consider when designing your own personal outdoor living spaces, however with some though and consideration you can create something truly special.
Just remember to enjoy the process!

All-White Bedrooms – Turning Your Room Into a Blank Canvas
When you think of an all-white bedrooms, do you picture a hospital room or an uncomfortably trendy hotel rooms? Common misconceptions about using white as the main theme of a bedroom is that it is boring or uninviting. But there are ways to create a beautiful and cozy monochromatic chamber that is light, bright, white and a beautiful sight.
Texturize
Think of your bedroom as a blank canvas. Instead of being boring, it is an ever-changing masterpiece. Tori Golub, a New York City designer, on ElleDecor.com said, “White on white with white bed linens creates a sumptuous form. Shadows become colors, texture becomes a focal point and the room changes in every light.”
A velvety white duvet cover paired with silky sheets and over-size pillows will have you yearning for bed time. When using one color, get creative with textures, fabrics and combining different styles to produce a look that is almost “sculptural,” as Golub points out.
Not all-white bedrooms are the same
You know all of those paint samples with creative names? Eggshell white, dove white, linen white, country white, cream white, seashell white the list is endless. The fact is, yes, there is a difference. Some whites have subtle hints of blue, pink or yellow. Others are pale and some are striking.
Before you start grabbing all-white bedrooms decor related stuff, make sure the shades blend well together. Using a few different shades can give your room a nice flow, but don’t be fooled because whites can clash with whites. A helpful tip: Grab some of those paint swatches from a home improvement store (they are usually free) and pick two or three shades that go well together. Use these as a guide when picking out linens, window treatments, rugs and decor for your bedroom, so everything matches and blends harmoniously.
You don’t have to chain yourself to white, either. Add accents of natural wood, exposed brick or concrete and pops of black or turquoise.
It’s not what you can do with white, but what white can do for your bedroom
Decorating with white has more benefits than you may think. White can instantly make your bedroom space seem bigger, brighter and cleaner. If you have a problem with too little space or poor lighting, using white in your bedroom can produce some impressive results without requiring expensive renovations or having to buy new lighting fixtures.
White is also a “noise-cancelling” color. Replacing the multitude of hues in your room with simple tranquil white will create an atmosphere of peace and simplicity — ideal when you want a place you can relax and feel “Zen.”
White is quite flexible when choosing textures and styles. When you don’t have the distraction of color, you focus on the softness of fabrics, the beauty of textures and the comfort of the material in your all-white bedrooms.

Stress Reducing Design in Healthcare Spaces
How can the feel good factor be fused in places dealing with the healing experience? Well this may be the reason why healthcare units are changing their outlook towards infrastructure, to help patients and visitors feel less stressed, and much more comfortable during their time at hospitals and clinics.
When I recently visited a so called “5 star” hospital in a metro city, the entrance had a large glass partition with water flowing in between, on my right was coffee house and left-hand-side had a modern reception area with bright wall texture. I was flabbergasted to be honest, with a question doing rounds in my mind; have I come to see an ailing friend in a hospital or visiting a Spa? I was impressed with the changes in the interior design of the hospital to make it more welcoming.
It’s apparent that such places are crowded, full of tension and working constantly surrounded with a boring never-ever changing décor. But now there are more than blank white walls, stained pillars and rusted waiting areas. While medical facilities are being upgraded with better service standards to run in competitive market, it’s important to look good too!
There is more style in the corridors with placing of Indoor plants & wall paintings. Facilities like relaxing chairs, LCD TVs, provision of beverage counters, locker units, etc are fulfilling luxury demands and meeting designer principles. The waiting area is now known as “waiting lounge”, dividing the space for children and adults. I have seen healthcare places taking the pain and recreating small corners into kids play area, relieving saddle off the parents, while they are at such places. There are soothing LED lights installed, particular area devoted to landscaping with water features, more glass windows to minimize suffocation and pattern flooring to add detailing in the design. There is more zest of exciting colors on walls, curtains and bed sheets, texture on the ceiling and modern selection of furniture. The patient room is equipped with television, sofas, cupboards, sterilized washrooms, magazines and itinerary. Everything is placed in such a manner that’ll bestow “homely” feel.
Whole agenda of polishing the interior is to divert patient’s mind from the sickness to pleasant notions. Placing of fixtures like large vases in corners, indoor fountains and wall panels for miniatures makes a lot of difference. Such wide-ranging design makes Healthcare places less alarming and more soothing. The décor should be able to accommodate needs of everyone. It’s the magic of colors, right furniture placing and balance of lighting fixtures that have done wonders to these places. This may also be called stress reducing interior design.
