A few of my favorite primary bedroom designs

1. Earth Tones, Crown Molding and a Lovely Tray Ceiling

If you like earth tone interior design, you'll love this primary bedroom with soft mustard yellow walls and ceiling contrasted nicely with white trim. The color scheme is consistent with light tan carpeting, the dark wood-framed bed along with dark wood nightstands and dresser.

2. Loft Primary Bedroom (Urban Style)

Spacious white and light gray loft primary bedroom with large black-framed window, platform bed and cool modern desk all on white wood flooring.

3. Scandinavian Style Primary Bedroom

What an absolutely gorgeous Scandinavian primary bedroom with simple platform bed, distressed white/light brown closet doors, birch wood flooring, off-shite armchair and distressed nightstands. Two large windows emit plenty of natural light. Notice the white-washed wood ceiling as well… lots of white, but all the natural wood makes it look amazing.

4. Modern Primary Bedroom with Adjacent Office

Here's a modern bedroom design with chandelier, wood flooring, and adjacent office. I love the white ceiling with a black outline pattern.

5. Large Beach Style with TV, Gorgeous Curtains and Small Sitting Area

This large white primary bedroom is casual with wide-board flooring, distressed dresser/TV stand but then there's the elegant drapes and glamorous blue armchairs that add some dynamism to this awesome space.

6. Small Primary Bedroom with Black Accent Wall and Wood Bench

This is one of my all-time favorite small primary bedroom designs. It barely fits the bed and two small dresser nightstands, but the clever decor elements make it seem much bigger such as the black accent wall framed with white trim (gives it depth), the wall-mounted lamps, the patterned area rug, and large lean-to mirror. Brilliant ideas for a small primary bedroom.

7. Traditional Primary Bedroom with River Rock Fireplace

Plain decor with the river rock fireplace being the centerpiece is what this farmhouse style primary bedroom is all about.

8. Transitional Style with Light Tan Walls, Fireplace and Beautiful Reading Chair Area

I'm a nut about transitional interior design. This bedroom hammers my love for this style home. It's simple, but there are touches of pure elegance and rusticism. Check out the black round ottoman with gold band (elegant glam) under the textured wood fireplace mantle. Talk about interesting contrast, but it works beautifully. These contrasts are what transitional is all about.

9. Mediterranean Style Primary Bedroom Suite with Fireplace, Adjacent Sitting Room and Piano

I'm not too keen about the Mediterranean style but I can see why people love it. This large primary bedroom suite has earth tones throughout with arched doorways with loads of space … enough to accommodate a piano.

10. Contemporary Primary Bedroom with Exposed Beam Ceiling, Fireplace, and Balcony

Incredible primary bedroom in bungalow style with the exposed wood-beamed ceiling (angled in shed style ceiling) with angled floor-to-ceiling windows and glass door leading to a balcony with an incredible view.

11. Blue Primary Bedroom with White Trim

Blue beach style primary with a fabulous white bed and balcony. It's in a suburban home which works, but imagine this overlooking the beach… now that would be perfection.

12. Chic Primary Bedroom with Panel Wall and Suede Tufted Headboard and Divan at End of Bed

Glam and comfort make up this nicely textured bedroom decor. The paneled ceiling, side tufted headboard, sitting furniture, curtains and chandelier give this primary bedroom a unique decor style all its own.

13. Beautiful Primary Bedroom Suite with Fireplace and White Divan

What an awesome primary bedroom in a traditional style with a contemporary dark wood bed and white divan. The cathedral ceiling makes this room into something very special. Look at all the windows … it's like being in a crow's nest.

Primary Bedroom Style Guide

The average adult needs between 7 ½ and 8 hours of sleep each night. If you think about it, about half the time you spend at home is in bed. It makes sense to give the type of primary bedroom style you get careful thought.

Let's walk through some things to consider.

Each style lends itself toward different features. You can begin by thinking about the key aspects that you'd like to include. Consider the types of things that can help you relax and feel comfortable.

This attention to detail can help you avoid becoming part of the 30 percent of Americans who suffer from insomnia.

1. Functionality

There's the primary purpose of sleeping. But also think about the other elements you'd like to include—as space allows. Consider things like furniture such as dresser or nightstand.

Do you like to read at night? A well-placed lamp could be a welcome feature.

2. Theme

Next, let's talk theme. Thinking about the theme you'd like to capture can help you hone in on the type of primary bedroom style that will work best for you. You might find it helpful to consider a few words that describe your ideal theme. Words like natural, minimalistic, or comfy may spring to mind.

Does a spa retreat sound like your dream bedroom? Or maybe you like the allure of an exotic setting? You can find design elements in all price ranges, so feel free to let your imagination run wild. A few accessories can give your primary bedroom the feel that you're looking to create.

3. Color

Thinking about your theme will lead you down the path to a color choice. Are you looking for a natural kind of theme? Muted colors like tan and beige will fit in with your choice.

Or maybe you'd like to create a beach bedroom. Whites and blues will give your primary bedroom a nautical look that will make you feel like you're at sea.

4. Furniture

Your bed, of course, is the dominant feature in your bedroom. Sizes vary from the narrow single twin at 75 x 39" to the opulent grand king at 98 x 80". That's why it was important to consider the functionality of your primary bedroom.

The largest size bed may sound nice, but it may take up the space you needed for that set of nightstands you wanted. The best advice we can give you about furniture is to pay for quality, especially when it comes to your bed and mattress.

It's an important purchase, considering the average person gets seven years out of their mattress. Your back will thank you.

This video from Consumer Reports offers some advice on choosing a mattress.

Styles

Now that we've dealt with the practical matters let's move on to the types of primary bedroom styles. Thinking about your ideal theme and color has probably steered you toward a certain style.

But the first rule is that there are no rules. The important thing is to create a space that you'll enjoy and which will help you get a restful night's sleep every time.

1. Traditional

The traditional style makes a statement just by being what it is. It's classy without the pretense of shouting it all and sundry. The style is timeless with many familiar elements in pattern and design.

Heirloom pieces are a hallmark of its design. But the traditional style in its truest sense combines those cherished elements of the past with newly found treasures.

The unifying features are the backdrops such as the walls, floors, and trim. They provide the canvas for the furniture and accessories.

The traditional style varies from the contemporary because it includes treasured pieces that hearken back to the past, giving it that sense of timelessness. Family items, both past and present, are welcome additions to this style.

You can incorporate both old and contemporary pieces into the traditional style. In a way, you can think of it as creating a mini version of your home.

You can include mementos and souvenirs of the past while adding new pieces that mark your journey. Materials that are strong like wood and textures that are soft to the touch like cotton are classic features.

The Elements of the Traditional Style

• Fine pieces that lend a sense of timelessness to the entire design
• Classic styles of furniture, wall coverings, window treatments, and trim
• Sense of cohesiveness without loud or ostentatious pieces clamoring for attention
• Neutral or soft colors rather than bold, attention-grabbing hues
• Comfortable atmosphere with elements that invoke images of strength and reliability

2. Cottage

A cottage-style primary bedroom contains elements that create an inviting and cozy atmosphere. It's the kind of place that makes you want to linger in bed, reading the newspaper over your coffee. It's all about comfort from big pillows to fluffy comforters.
