More than any other room in your home, the master suite should feel like a sanctuary, bringing a boutique hotel blend of maximum style plus maximum comfort to a small space. 

Calming colours
The right colours are key to creating a calming master suite. We prefer paler soft shades that are restful and warmer shades that will ensure the space doesn’t feel too stark. Try shades of warm white, soft grey, muted green or light taupe to create a serene space.

Create a focal point
The bed is obviously the most important element of the room. We like to make it a showstopper by adding an oversized, beautiful headboard in a lush, luxe fabric for the ultimate boutique hotel feel.

Layered lighting
Mood lighting is key. Layer lighting by using more than one light source; think about adding pendants, bedside table lamps or wall lights. The latter is our favourite as wall lights save bedside space and feel so much more impressive. Dimmers are essential, with individually controlled, easily accessible switches.

Tactile textures
Layering is key for a luxe look; you really do need multiple cushions to dress your bed – trust us on this, it’s true! And remember to add softness and texture to other areas of the bedroom to balance the space – curtains to finish the windows, and an occasional chair or ottoman are our picks.

I would love to help you create a master suite with style and edge, so do get in touch to book a consultation.
