At its core, white is a cold color, associated with winter frosts and snowdrifts. Bright white color should be chosen if your bedroom windows face the sunny side. Soft sunlight will soften the "coldness" of bright white, giving it a touch of freshness. If the bedroom is located on the north side, then you should pay attention to warmer shades of white, such as creamy, milky, pale pink. Otherwise, walls from bright white will migrate to light gray, which will make your bedroom look dull and abandoned instead of the expected freshness and cleanliness. By choosing the right shade, you will emphasize all the advantages and features of the bedroom, create harmony and comfort in it. Adhere to the rule of a single palette in choosing textiles, that is, use either only warm or only cold shades of white.The union of warm and cold shades looks disharmonious and tasteless.
By correctly placing accents in a white bedroom with the help of textiles and various accessories, you will achieve amazing results. If you do not lose a sense of proportion, then against such a background, any thing will look stylish, emphasizing its uniqueness and beauty.

If you have chosen white or one of its many shades for the bedroom, now you are faced with the task of harmoniously placing the necessary key accents. In any bedroom there are several places that should be given a special look and stand out from the general background of the room. Let's look at some of them and try to figure out how to do it.
- Furniture and bed should be the dominant note that sets the tone and style throughout the bedroom. Depending on the color that will prevail, your bedroom will acquire one or another style direction. When choosing black furniture, try to use other "color spots" to avoid the effect of "black and white photography". Dilute this contrast with soft gray shades and be sure to provide a bright solid color accessory. Try to choose objects of the same shade (warm or cold) with the walls. Snow-white furniture against a warm beige background looks rough and disharmonious, and in order to correct this impression, you will need the help of a professional designer. For warm shades of white, choose furniture in warm, soft shades - milky, coffee, creamy, beige. For cool white, black, snow white, smoky, bluish and metallic colors are suitable. When choosing a mirror cabinet for the bedroom, consider what exactly the mirrors reflect. If this is the opposite wall, then you will get additional space and a sense of freedom, but if it is a bed or other furniture, then instead of the necessary space, you will find yourself in a cluttered and sloppy room.
- Walls. In a white bedroom, they are usually monochromatic, which is why they are the most favorite place to place various decorations and accessories.
With the help of bright panels and paintings, you can divert attention from the shortcomings that are in the bedroom, directing the visitor's gaze in a direction that is beneficial for you.
Give preference to calm, but inherently interesting accessories: against the background of a white wall, they will sparkle with new facets. Do not abuse the quantity, but the size is quite acceptable. If you dream of a large picture in a wide frame, then the white walls of the bedroom will come in handy for this.
- Floor. The coating, whatever you choose, should be combined with the general background of the walls and furniture. So, against the background of the creamy shade of the walls laminate greyish tint looks ridiculous. In addition, the floor itself is also a background that emphasizes absolutely all pieces of furniture standing on it. By choosing the color of the floor in harmony with the furniture and walls, you will win back some more space that can be used at your own discretion.
- Curtains. When choosing curtains for a white bedroom, an important factor is the quality and structure of the material. Designed in the same color scheme with the general background of the bedroom, they can be both a bright and independent accent, and a continuation of any part of the room, echoing its style and shading the accessories in it. Curtains in a white bedroom can set the mood for the entire interior, giving it an "atmospheric" and individuality.. The comfort in the room will depend on the right textiles. Pay attention to the pattern of the curtains, because the presence or absence of a certain pattern can negate all efforts to create an airy, spacious and tidy bedroom.
- Lighting elements. A bedroom in white suggests soft lighting. Always choose fixtures with diffused light. The fantasy of the owners of the house can both give a white bedroom a magical and fabulous look, and play a cruel joke with them, turning the room into a hospital laboratory. The main criterion in the choice of lighting elements is unobtrusive, scattered beam. You can achieve an interesting effect if you highlight the bottom of the bed in a completely monochrome bedroom. Also, multi-colored lamps will look appropriate in a white room, provided that they fit into the overall style and idea of \u200b\u200bthe interior.
Bright spots in a white bedroom: how to avoid frivolity
Creating a bedroom interior designed in white is not as simple a task as it seems at first glance. On the one hand, you can afford some deviations from the color in order to “colorize” and emphasize the necessary key places, and on the other hand, with the slightest deviation from the style or an overabundance of accessories, you can spoil the impression of the integrity of the interior. A luxurious white bedroom, stylized in rococo or baroque style, can be easily spoiled by plastic or iron lamps, turning a chic interior into a cheap hotel room. Or a combination of red, black and white that has set the teeth on edge can play in a new way if green plants are added to such an interior.

There are no dangerous combinations with white: the loss of a sense of proportion in creating such an interior is a threat. Play on a combination of shades, choose accessories that fit in style with your interior. While seemingly light, it requires knowledge of the palette and a sense of harmony that will help make your bedroom the most luxurious and comfortable place to relax.
