Cosy Bedroom
These dark bedroom ideas prove that going bold with your paint choice can make all the difference in transforming a bedroom into something stylish and dramatic.
Deep and mood modern bedroom ideas will create an enveloping atmosphere that's perfect for a good night's sleep. So we've sifted through our archives to find the most beautiful dark bedrooms, featuring moody charcoals, gorgeous greys and inky blues.
Summer or winter, dark paint colors or wall-coverings are also a great remedy for rooms that don't receive much natural daylight, whether that's due to a lack of windows or a north-facing aspect. Rather than trying to brighten a dark room with bright or light colors (which may seem like the logical thing to do), resist the temptation as pale or vibrant colors just end up looking dull and drab if the room is naturally dark.
Instead, play to the room's strengths and use the lack of light to your advantage. Dive in with dark painted floors or walnut woods, and drown your walls with deep navy blues, smokey greys, or earthy tones. The result will be a room that cocoons you.

Are dark colors good for a bedroom?
Dark colors can be the perfect shades for a bedroom, creating a space that feels cozy, inviting, and stylish. Deep blues, greys, greens and blacks are all the perfect backdrop for a calming and soothing space and can work with any style from uber-modern to boho and rustic. Plus they are ideal colors for smaller bedrooms and a more on-trend alternative to an all-white scheme, as they can blur the edges of the room making it feel larger.
What colors are best for a dark bedroom?
The best colors to choose for a dark bedroom will mostly come down to personal tastes and the overall style you are after. Dark blues are a classic choice, and look wonderful as a four-wall color, or even taken onto the ceiling too. Pair these deeper blues with white for a clean crisp look that still feels light and fresh. Deep forest greens as part of a dark bedroom scheme too as an alternative to the more traditional blues and greys.
