DREAM A LITTLE DREAM

Bedrooms are a sacred space, a personal haven, a place where you can switch off from your busy life and retire for a restful night’s sleep. Yet sadly, it’s often the most neglected room in the house with kitchens and living rooms pulling focus. But it’s time for that to change this spring as we give our bedrooms the attention they deserve.

From sustainable materials, statement sheets and cosy splurges, continue scrolling for the bedroom must-haves everyone will be dreaming about this spring.

NEUTRAL LOVER

Picture the best night’s sleep you’ve ever had, chances are you see yourself bundled up in a cloud of crisp white linens. Hotels favour white bedding as a result of the colour’s calming properties. The tone invokes a sense of comfort and serenity making it the perfect starting point for a restful sleep.

COTTAGECORE

Cottagecore took the interiors world by storm late last year and is only continuing to grow in 2022. Incredibly wholesome and nostalgic, cottagecore is about escaping modern-day stresses and finding the calm in simpler things. For the bedroom, this means embracing this cheery and down-to-earth style by clashing your textile prints - from stripes and florals to graphic shapes.

SOFT PINK

The fashion runways are awash with neon and hot pink this season, whilst in the interiors world, pink is taking a more muted approach. Think candy floss hues, blush tones and peachy pastels. Flesh toned pinks are perfect for creating a relaxing bedroom. Add deeper hues of coral pink and terrocotta for a crisp clean look.

COMFORT WITH A CONSCIENCE

The global average water footprint of Cotton is 10,000 – 20,000 litres (depending on where it’s grown) to produce just 1 kg of cotton. Not to mention the use of fertilisers that pollute water supplies and the harsh labour practices cotton farmers often face. And although the fabric makes for breathable bedding, it can be costly in terms of the impact on the planet. Luckily, there’s a new wave of bedding brands incorporating sustainable practices into the production of their bedding; sourcing organic cotton rather than conventional and/or ensuring their products are made in more environmentally responsible facilities.

MASTER MAXIMALISM

Maximalism can be described in three words: more is more. Think vivid swatches of colour, plenty of patterns and breaking every interior design rule you ever knew. For the bedroom, maximalism is best explored with bedding by mixing and matching patterned sheets with colourful throws - or vice versa.

BACK TO NATURE

The months spent predominantly outdoors over the past year-plus has incited a new enthusiasm for the great outdoors. Continuing on from the popular grey-on-grey trend from seasons past, this new trend embraces all earth tones. Umber browns, deep blues, forest greens - you name it. As long as it evokes nature, it’s right at home in your bedroom.
