The bedroom is a cherished space in the home that is both a private and personal place to relax and unwind. At least, that's what it should be. Knowing how to create an environment where this can happen doesn't always come naturally. Luckily, there are some simple bedroom ideas to help you create a relaxing ambience that you can enjoy, each and every day.
A neutral colour palette, as well as shades of green and blue, can create calming vibes in a bedroom, seen here in the stunning Split Level Timber Home on a Hill project in Tai Tapu
A stylish bedside table, like this featured here in the wonderfully furnished Benson House, provides convenient storage to help keep your bedroom clutter-free.
Warm toned bulbs, like those in the exquisite chandelier in this Pukenui Road residence, combine well with natural light to bring comfort to a space.
Just a little bit of greenery brings freshness to this beautifully designed children's room by Stacey Gillies Interiors.
Nothing beats a comfortable bed, like the Altea Bed by Georgetti, to make a bedroom feel like a haven.
High-quality drapery, like this Santa Cruz by Maurice Kain Drapery, will help keep noise outside the home.
The Bud Bronze Oil Burner is just one stylish way to get sweet aromas and scents into your bedroom.
Keeping the presence of electronics to a minimum can help you achieve a calm atmosphere, wonderfully demontrated with natural grace in this Herne Bay home.
Combining textures, like the natural hardwood bed frame and soft bedding of this gorgeous South Island home, adds warmth and visual interest to a bedroom.
A roaring fireplace in a bedroom makes it an easy place to retreat to, seen here in this marvellous villa renovation in Herne Bay.
