Beauty in the Bedroom(3)

Spring-Fresh Bedroom Style

Walls painted the color of palm fronds lend a tropical mood appropriate for the master bedroom in this Florida home. But without overkill. The room is kept pretty, not theme-ish, thanks to a shapely white-painted bed and other white wood furnishings. All artwork is botanical for a breath of spring that nails the design as fresh. The botanicals’ white backgrounds and frames contrast with the green walls for a near-perfect pop that stops well short of explosive. Bedding is feminine—note the scalloped-edge white pillows, which are outlined in green welting, and the full bed skirt whose pattern matches the upholstered headboard.
