30 Colorful Minimalist Bedroom Ideas You Must Try One
Do you want to give your bedroom a brand new look? Are you looking for a way to make some changes without spending a ton of money? Then you need to check out these colorful minimalist bedroom ideas!
Minimalism is a popular design style that is all about simplicity. It involves using clean lines, open spaces, and a neutral color palette to create a sleek and modern look.
While this style is usually associated with black, white, and grey, you can actually use any color you want in a minimalist space.
1. Add a Bold Accent Wall
An accent wall is a great way to add a pop of color to your minimalist bedroom without going overboard.
If you love the look of colorful bedrooms but don’t want to feel overwhelmed by color, consider adding just one colorful wall to your space.
2. Mix and Match for a Fun
This room has a lot of colors, but the balance of the color palette and the white walls keep it from looking overwhelming.
The bedspread in this room is the perfect example of how you can mix and match colors in a bedroom. The different colors are all used in a similar way, and they are balanced out by the white in the room.
Eclectic Look
If you love color and can’t pick just one, consider an eclectic look. This bedroom from Emily Henderson is a great example of how you can incorporate multiple colors without it feeling like too much.
The key here is to pick a few colors and stick to them. In this room, the color scheme is blue, green, and pink. The colors are repeated throughout the space and are balanced with a lot of white to keep it feeling light and airy.
3. Do It Yourself Headboard
If you’re looking for a budget-friendly way to add a pop of color to your bedroom, a DIY headboard is a great option. This one is made from a piece of plywood and then painted with a fun color-block design. You could also use wallpaper or fabric to cover the plywood if you prefer a pattern to a solid color.
You can attach the plywood to the wall with a French cleat or simply lean it against the wall behind your bed for a more relaxed look.
4. Add a Canopy for an Airy Feel
A canopy bed is a great way to add a touch of elegance to a bedroom. This design by Sophie Robinson features a simple white canopy that gives the bed a bit of height and makes the space feel more grand. The canopy also adds a touch of softness to the room and helps to break up the bold color-blocking on the walls.
If you’re not a fan of canopies, a four-poster bed can achieve a similar look. And if you want to take it a step further, you can even drape fabric over the canopy to create a cozy cocoon.
5. Add Color with a Comforter
If you want to add color to your space but are unsure of what color to use, start with a comforter. You can find a comforter with multiple colors and use it as the color palette for your space.
This comforter has shades of pink, red, and orange. I used those colors in the artwork and in the throw pillows.
6. Make a Statement with Lighting
Lighting can be a great way to add a pop of color to your bedroom. This bedroom design from @thehiredhome combines a warm, neutral color palette with a pop of blue from the wall sconces.
Pro tip: if you don’t want to commit to a bold color on your walls, you can always add color with a statement light fixture or wall sconce.
7. Create a Feature Wall
If you’re not ready to commit to a bold paint color, try creating a feature wall with a bright color. This is a great way to add a pop of color to the room without making the space feel overwhelming.
You can also use your feature wall to highlight a piece of art, a gallery wall, or a beautiful headboard. No matter what you choose to highlight, a feature wall is a great way to add visual interest to the space.
8. Go Bohemian with a Canopy
The simple, draped canopy over this bed adds a touch of bohemian style to the room. The canopy is a great way to add softness and texture to your space, and it’s an easy DIY project.
To create your own draped canopy, you can use a curtain rod or a hook in the ceiling, and then simply drape a panel of fabric over the rod or hook. You can even add some tassels or trim to the edges of the fabric for a little extra flair.
9. Add Color with a Rug
If you’re not loving the idea of painting your walls a bold color, you can always bring in color in other ways. Rugs are a great way to add color and texture to your bedroom.
This bold boho rug is the perfect statement piece in this bedroom. I love how the colors in the rug are used throughout the rest of the room.
10. Add a Splash of Color with Pillows
If you’re new to the world of color, pillows are a great place to start! You can use them to add a pop of color to an otherwise neutral bedroom. And if you ever change your mind, it’s easy to swap them out for new ones.
In this bedroom, the pillows tie in with the colors in the art print above the bed. The rest of the room is neutral, which keeps the focus on the colorful pillows and art.
Conclusion
Colorful minimalist bedrooms are all about finding that ideal balance between the ambiance you need and the style you love. The less is more approach to decorating is all about getting this fine balance right. So, pick a small bedroom color scheme that is both unique and visually appealing and leave the excesses behind.
