How to create a fairytale bedroom

Inject a bit of magic into your bedroom with four-poster beds

Soft and subtle bedroom
Choosing a statement bed with a distinctive design and impressive scale will create an instant centrepiece and starting point for a scheme. For a cohesive feel, introduce co-ordinating furniture painted in the same shades and design as the bed and opt for a neutral backdrop and soft accents to enhance the overall look.

How to make it work
• Using furniture from the same design collection is the easiest and simplest way to create a cohesive interior scheme.
• Accessories in a vibrant shade dotted around the room add an extra layer to a subtle palette.
• Oversized accessories, such as a mirror or light, complement the larger pieces of furniture and help to balance the look.   
• To mix different patterns successfully, use a single colour that will draw them together. Here, the striped furniture and embroidered coral motif curtains sit comfortably in the same palette.
