Make your bedroom more contemporary

If you’re feeling bored with the design of your home, maybe it’s time to refresh it with something a little more contemporary. A simple and elegant contemporary look can really change the whole atmosphere of your home. You may think the best place to start is the living room or kitchen, but you should really start somewhere else: the bedroom. Your bedroom is often a place of refuge and if you really want to change the way you feel about your home, you need to start there. Listed below are some tips to make your bedroom a little more contemporary.

First, take a look at your bedroom furniture. Adding a few contemporary pieces can really make all the difference. Simple yet elegant is the key to contemporary. Platform bed frames are an especially effective piece of furniture that can dramatically change the look of your room. Next, look at the color of the room. It’s popular with contemporary colors to use a main color and then an accent color, such as purple and brown, or red and black.

Looking at examples of contemporary bedrooms in magazines and online can help you come up with various ideas. However, the most important part of creating a contemporary space is lighting. Lighting can turn a dull, lifeless room into an exciting and dramatic space. Accent lighting is especially effective. Look at lamps or accent lights at a department or furniture store for ideas on how to use lighting to liven up your boring bedroom.
