Serene Bedrooms(5)

Blue Bedroom Oasis

What a difference a coat of paint can make in lifting a bedroom from the decorating doldrums and infusing it with serene style. This master bedroom’s traditional design is articulated at the walls, which go restful in a baby blue paint romantically called “Rainwashed” (from Sherwin Williams). The ceiling’s double moldings are painted “Eggshell” (Sherwin Williams) for an easy-on-the-eye contrast to the blue that defines the room’s bones. Without disrupting the bedroom’s tranquility, the owners even managed to continue the collected look of the other spaces with a single sculpture at the window and a dramatic silver-leaf pendant light from World’s Away.

Tip: Edit collections tightly to preserve serenity.
