The first thing that comes to mind when someone mentions a black bedroom is a movie scene of sorts, with satin sheets, blackout curtains and a finance bro unwinding after work. But if home trends have done something, it is completely subverting stereotypes, especially now with black bedrooms being the epitome of aesthetic and something your design-loving heart can achieve. If you love the colour black as much as I do, and always wanted to incorporate it in your design aesthetic, then here are ways you can achieve the luxury black bedroom of your dreams. 

Pro-Tip: If black isn't your colour, but grey is, then here's how to make your bedroom grey! 

Opt For Black Soft Furnishings

The easiest way to go about decorating your black bedroom is to ensure that all or most of your soft furnishing is in black. This includes the curtains, rug, comforter, sheets, pillows, throws—you get the gist. Of course to avoid monotony you can use black in different shades as well as textures. If your room is one that gets ample light, you need not worry about making everything too dungen-looking. Further, in order to avoid everything looking too monochrome, we suggest playing around with pops of grey and white as well.

Create An Accent Wall

An accent wall is a great way to add depth and something visual to your room. For a luxury black bedroom, we suggest adding a black accent wall that can have a different texture or be in a different shade of black compared to the other walls. You can also enhance this by displaying artwork on it. If you don't want to paint it, you can also always add a textured wallpaper or a darker-coloured paper to the wall.

Add Pops Of Colour

In no way is it possible to keep your room absolutely black, and you should not. A good mark of a well-designed room is how you place and play around with other elements in the room, especially other colours. We think a gorgeous deep red lamp, a yellow vase, or even metallics. Metallics, other than the fact that they are trending, also continue to add coldness to the room, which can always be softened by warm lights.

Use Soft Warm Lighting

Having a dark colour palette bedroom also means that there will be minimum light or light will get trapped in quickly. It also tends to get gloomy-looking, especially during the winters and during cloudy rainy days. To soften the coldness that black can bring to the room, we suggest adding warm and soft lighting. This can be in the form of traditional cane lamps and pendants or even accent lighting under the frame of the bed, along the headboard, or the walls and the likes. Depending on your vibe, you can choose the kind of light fixtures you want to go with. We also suggest going with either wood- or metal-based fixtures for a wholesome or a super contemporary look.

Match Your Furniture

The easiest way to maintain a theme is to match all your furniture for a holistic look. If you're making your bedroom into a luxury black bedroom then don't think twice about options for things like a black bed, a side table, an accent chair and the likes. The only thing, however, is that black does show dust, so you'll have to be mindful of dust, and clean regularly. Another thing with making all your furniture black is that you can then have the liberty to play around with other tones of black in other aspects of the room like the walls and the soft furnishings.

Add Black Accents & Decor

We firmly believe that no room is complete without decor knick-knacks and accent items that not only break monotony but also lend loads of character to a room.  Adding decor items is always a good idea, especially if you want to establish a 'theme' to a room. In the case of a black luxury bedroom, black decor items are a must.
