Wood floors lend themselves to an eclectic approach. If you take a close look at your flooring, chances are there are both light and dark tones. If so, many other types of wood will work well with your floor. In this photo, four woods work together to create a warm and inviting space. The dresser is the closest match for the floor, while the bed captures the darker tones. The chair in the foreground connects with the picture frame on the back wall with a strong dark contrast to the other wood in the room.
The mid-range paint choice pulls all of the woods together. This paint color is smart. Wood always looks better with a neutral or colors other than white. White pulls the sparkle out of wood, while colors and richer neutrals showcase both your furniture and floor.
Using the light moldings, canopy and bedding keeps the space from looking dark or dull. Pulling in these lighter tones brightens up the space while positioning the bed as the focal point of the room.
The thoughtful combination of woods and rich neutrals in this space turns this bedroom into an inviting oasis. What inspiration can you draw from this photo to warm up your own bedroom?
