What you need to create a bedroom that will soothe the senses and rest the spirit.

Most restful paint colours
Grey

  • A greeny-grey with bring to mind a misty morning. Add texture with cozy blankets and throw. We liek: Benjamin Moore  Gray Cashmere 2138-60
  • A subtle yet masculine warm grey shade is a perfect shade for an accent wall in a creamy-pale room adorned with chunky knits. We like: General Paint Secret Path DTE 018.

Pale blue

  • A light bluw with a hint of ocean green will evoke the feel of the English seaside and looks lovely when paired with pale pink. We like: Farrow & Ball Pavillion Blue no. 252.

Lavender

  • The subtle touch of a light pastel purple tone creates a dreamy bedroom. Accessorize with bedlinens and drapes in deeper greys and purples. We like: Home & Country Collection by Beauti-Tone Rêve FD013.

Warm white

  • Walls in a warm, pale colour benefit from lush charcoal accessories. The addition of some pewter and mercury glass pieces will give extra sparkle. We like: Para Paints  Soaker Tub P5223-24.

Easy ways to green your room
  • Provide texture in a small room without using bold colour with a raised geometric patterned organic cotton duvet. We like: Cameron Organic Matelassé Duvet Cover from Pottery Barn, $189 US.
  • A hypoallergenic, biodegradable and recyclable duvet made from Lyocell Down (a sustainable filler made from Beech trees) is the ultimate in eco-friendly bedding. We like: Raymond Waites duvet from the Bay, $550.
  • Eliminate allergens with a tightly woven organic cotton cover. We like:  Organic Cotton Barrier Cloth Mattress Cover from Grassroots. $465.
  • Earth toned bedding is a funky and modern alternative to basic white bedding. We like: Organic Cotton Frayed-Edge Sheet Set from West Elm, $99.
  • Filled with organic wool to help regulate body temperature a contoured pillow also supports your head and neck. We like: Organic Contour Pillow from Natura, $160.
