beautiful contemporary bedroom ideas image
CeeBee
Greetings Yahoo! Answers.
My husband and I recently purchased a bedroom set and a gorgeous set of sheets. Unfortunately we have no idea how to decorate this room. The walls are currently a light creamy beige with white faux wood window blinds.
Can you please suggest some painting colors, techniques and other decor ideas that can transform our bedroom into a beautiful and modern/contemporary relaxing escape.
Thanks! :D

Answer
a rich red/orange wall accent with a nice earth tone brown will go nice on the walls to accent the furniture and beddings ... try imaging the walls in two tone colors.
My friend just move into her new house, and in one of the rooms had similar specs as your's, that's what she did and it looked great, i'm sorry I don't have pictures though...

What color of paint is modern and cozy?

My husband and I just bought a beautiful 4 br 2 ba home. The whole interior needs a new coat of paint. Any ideas on colors or designs? We both know how to paint but very confused when it comes to interior design. Thanks for help!

Chocolate brown can be quite cozy in a lounge, and you can always lighten it up in the summer by having beige cushions or seat covers.
It really is a matter of taste though, as some people think the colour is ghastly. Don't go for a really dark brown, you might as well paint it all black.
Red's a traditional cozy colour, but can be quite intimidating for males especially in the bedroom.
Whatever colour you do pick, make sure that you can lighten it up for the summer, as unless coupled with beige brown can make a room feel claustrophobic and hot in warm weather.
Light colours or yellows and blues will work for bathrooms. Greens and blues can work if they are not particularly ferocious.
Kitchens should be pale, and neither hot or cold. Try peach/yellow coupled with an assortment of coloured tiles for the walls to add a funky and modern feel that is contemporary and cozy. Make sure the tiles match the paint though!
Hallways should be neutral, as you generally pass through them. Lilacs, reds and oranges work (not together) as they are welcoming. Remember that this is the first room, other than the porch, that your guests will see.
If you have a porch, try mellow and low key colours. It does not need to be welcoming, you only use it to hang coats and put shoes in. Cheap prints can really make a porch feel nice, and make it feel although it is still part of the house without much work on your part.
I mentioned bedrooms and lounges earlier, in the earlier paragraphs. Utility rooms should be light and bright. Guest rooms should be neutral, whites or yellows often work well. You can dress white up with nice furniture to make the room feel more loved.
If in doubt on any room try to focus on curtains/material that you like. Match colours from existing furniture, artwork, upholstery and carpets. You may find this easier.
Modern themes tend to be pale, with bright and funky accessories. Interior designers are currently following the theory that it is the artwork ect that make the room what it is rather than having bright colours on the walls which flit in and out of fashion constantly.
