Pink tones are the prerogative of girlish bedrooms, while pastel shades of red are versatile and can appear in any room style. As for bright red, it appears in the decor only as an accent.

You can safely make a berry background in the room or a floor covering in a color reminiscent of red sand.
In general, the red bedroom is just the room when the "weather" in the decor is made not by the color, but by its shades.

The red interior has enough emotions to emphasize them with bright lighting. In such a bedroom, the light should remain in secondary roles, pour softly and dissolve into the background color. Floor lamps and small night lamps standing on bedside tables will wonderfully cope with this task. You can equip a hidden ceiling light - with it the room will become incredibly cozy.

Furniture
In order to furnish the red bedroom with furniture, you don’t have to make titanic efforts either. In such decors, pastel, black and white tones are great. Wood remains the priority material, although glass or metal furniture structures can be purchased if desired.
In general, any furniture with light facades will harmoniously look against the background of a red background - and vice versa, a light background of decoration will emphasize the beauty of a red set. The surfaces of all pieces of furniture that are planned to be placed in an unusual bedroom should be glossy. Give preference to designs that have clear, without ornate "bells and whistles" forms.

No matter how good the red color is, however, in the interiors it should not be present alone. Combining red with other shades is not an easy task, so the selection of companions should be approached with care. Oddly enough, but demanding and self-sufficient red wonderfully coexists with contrasting tones of both dark and light spectrums.
Red and white
The combination of these colors is the undisputed leader, and the dominant in this pair is white. Red is entrusted with the role of accent inclusions that attract or distract attention. Most often it is added in the form of curtains and textiles.

This does not mean that red cannot become the main background of the bedroom. It may well prevail in the decor. But to smooth out its irritating effect and eliminate obtrusiveness, it is best to use white accessories.
In a small bedroom, this technique will look very impressive: one wall is painted red (usually the one to which the head of the bed adjoins), while the adjacent surfaces are made in white shades. The visual effect of a spacious bedroom is guaranteed in this case!
Red and black
This pair is suitable for creating a red bedroom for active and hot natures. The combination of colors, of course, is classic, but the situation can turn out to be darkish. Beige and white accessories and bedding in the same colors will help solve the problem.
