Serene Bedrooms(9)

Add Sizzle to a Serene Bedroom

If soothing bedrooms begin with color, so do sassy ones. But what if you want a bedroom that’s both? The three-color combo used in this showhouse guest bedroom points the way. The first two colors, soft gray and lilac, bathe the space with tranquility. Then accents of chartreuse such as Silk Trading Company’s lampshades pump up the palette with attitude. Inspiration? A Vera Wang blouse. A Lucite bench and mirrored chests from George Smith add sizzling glam without disturbing the room’s abiding restfulness.
