What's Your Bedroom Decorating Style?
Cool and calm, dark and moody – bring your personality to the fore in a bedroom that's just for you ... or a loving two
Your bedroom reflects your personality more than any other room and serves as a sanctuary, no matter what your styling preferences. After all, adults spend nearly 3000 hours sleeping (and dreaming) there each year, so it has to be a space of comfort and security; a room where you can truly relax and recharge.
Here are our favourite Houzz decorating styles so you can see what suits your personality and then adopt the style to suit your bedroom space.

Earthy and rustic. You love a palette of rich brown and earthy tones, offset with wooden features and heavy woollen or linen fabrics.
Light and fresh. Think sunshine and daffodils in a room. The palette is predominantly white and you have a great love affair with shutters and crisp cotton.
Modern. You take your cue from Mid-century design and love a structured wooden table or sideboard. A little use of colour lifts your mood, too.
Elaborate and OTT. Think grand, plush and palatial. You love soft satins and silks partnered with luxury draping and a statement chandelier.
Dark and moody. You lean towards modern lines, but favour a palette of chocolate, charcoal and graphite. You’re also partial to sleek wood and concrete accents.
Cool and calm. Your bedroom is the equivalent of a chilled glass of water. You love shades of blue and dove grey pared back with soft whites.
Ordered and symmetrical. You feel most comfortable with a balanced space. You’ve meticulously planned both your styling and palette so everything matches perfectly.
Scandinavian. You’re on a first-name basis with the staff at Great Dane furniture. After all, only they can understand your love affair with light wood, clean lines and simple, sophisticated design.
Retro. You’re the most graphic of your friends and family, favouring bright vintage posters and ‘70s prints. You lean towards modern furniture, collecting pieces from specialist stores and Gumtree alike.
Inspired and daring. There are no solid rules for your bedroom styling. You tend to a mix a few statement styles together and, somehow, it works.
Bold and colourful. You consider yourself creative and confident enough to clash a bunch of brights. Your choices are rich, textural and multilayered.
Minimalist. You like a sparse space that’s clean and clutter-free. You also like to embrace a bit of black.
Frilly and fanciful. Your style is bright, quirky and slightly kitsch, but not at all cheap-looking. Want a splash of fuchsia? Why the hell not?
Muted and restrained. Neutral is your middle name. You have a keen eye for not over-styling and balancing light and dark shades.
