Restful Night

Soft, neutral colors and matching bedside tables instill balance and harmony for a relaxing oasis.

Creams and beiges combine with dark woods for a unified color palette. On each side of the bed, matching bookcases organize reading material and wall-mounted swing-arm lamps provide task lighting. Rectangular mirrors complete the clean, symmetrical design. A custom-made platform bed includes small tables for extra storage.

Decorating with neutrals doesn't mean everything should be the same shade of beige. Combine silky and rough textures with shiny and smooth surfaces to keep things interesting.
