Peek into this contemporary bedroom with a sustainable cork wallpaper that blends with wooden flooring, a cosy rug and dark wood side tables.

FAQs
1. Which colour combinations are trending for bedrooms in 2026?
You’ll see a lot of calm combos like beige with olive or cream with terracotta. If you like bold, try jewel shades, emerald or sapphire sofas and cushions are stealing the spotlight.
2. Are minimalistic bedroom designs still in trend?
Yes, they are. But it’s not the cold, empty look anymore. You can keep things simple and clutter-free, then add cosy touches like soft lights, rugs, or cushions to make it warm.
3. How do I choose the right furniture for a contemporary bedroom?
Go for pieces that look good but also work hard. Beds with storage, sleek wardrobes, and simple side tables fit well. Just make sure the furniture size matches your room.
4. What types of wardrobes are most popular in modern bedroom layouts?
Sliding door wardrobes are a favourite since they save space. Floor-to-ceiling wardrobes with mirrors or glass fronts are also loved—they add style and even make the room look bigger.
5. How do I blend traditional and modern elements in bedroom design?
It’s all about balance. You can add a carved wooden headboard to a modern bed, or use brass lamps with a clean setup. One traditional piece can beautifully lift a simple room.
6. Are open shelving concepts suitable for bedroom interiors?
Yes, if you don’t overdo it. Open shelves work well for books, plants, or decor pieces. Just mix them with some closed storage so the room doesn’t end up looking cluttered.
7. What are some trending bedroom flooring options?
Wooden floors are still loved for their cosy feel. Matte-finish tiles are getting popular too. If you want something eco-friendly, bamboo or cork flooring is a great modern choice.
