In the bedroom, a careful blend between modern and traditional yields sophisticated results. Classic palettes, and pretty details combine with bold colors, contemporary patterns, and strong lines to create a wonderful and ever-stylish fusion

In this master bedroom, an intense turquoise pairs with rich chocolate browns in a masterful mix of masculine and feminine. A tufted headboard with a curvaceous white lacquer frame provides a striking contrast to the masculine ikat textile that upholsters the padded walls and the striped woven leather rug that spans the floor.

Who says a neutral palette has to stop at beige? These soft and soothing hues make any bedroom look timeless and sophisticated. And with a color scheme so versatile, its easy to pair fabrics and furniture. Whether a bedroom is modern or classic, lofty or compact, these palettes can transform it into a space of serenity.

 Clean lines and fresh colors make for a serene master bedroom
