Merino Laminates, December 10, 2024 Updated On : May 21, 2025

Our bedroom is simply not another room in the house but our private sanctuary where we rest, relax and spend tranquil moments. Thus, the design of this space should be highly personalised to make one feel at ease without compromising on the functionality of the space. The colours and textures that we use in every space has a great impact on the ambiance of the space and it is all the more crucial to consider these factors when you are designing your bedroom as it is a space for rest and relaxation. Here is a list of some of the most loved colour combinations handpicked for a wide array of aesthetic preferences: 

1. Neutral color themes 

Many and often, individuals who lead a very fast paced life, or professionals in fashion, marketing, design etc levitate towards neutral colour schemes as they wish to draw away from the constant exposure to colours, patterns and designs. These colour combinations are also ideal for those who wish to create an ambiance of luxury and a sense of spaciousness and calm. One of the most trending colour combinations is a trio of brown, beige and off-white. A classic combination that has continued to be a favourite is sure to see a lot more takers in this year too. It is relaxing, earthy, warm and yet subtle enough to allow a person to feel relaxed in their minimalistic space. 

White with wood and a pairing of beige is another classic combination that is used in rooms where one wants to create a sense of spaciousness and light. The stark crispness of white is softened with the beige and a hint of colour and texture is added by the introduction of wood and flora. 

Black, grey and white is another combination often used in bedrooms for men, teenage boys and for those who love a space that is sleek and modern. This combination may or may not come with a splash of colour but is often paired with super glossy, sleek finishes like the Gloss Meister range from Merino Laminates. It is highly reflective and super glossy and using it in darker shades of grey or piano black makes the space look elegant and sophisticated. 

2. Warm colour combinations

Warm colours are often preferred for bedrooms for adults as they create a more cozy and romantic ambiance. They are also advisable for rooms which are large and have ample natural light coming in. 

If you are someone who loves earthy colours and enjoys a space that is more colourful without being too flashy, a pairing of burnt orange,warm yellow and white is just the thing for you. The warmth of the orange and yellow is balanced by the boldness of white, thus creating a space that is welcoming and tranquil. This is a beautiful combination for earth rooted homes and introducing some plants and landscape can make your bedroom a tranquil oasis. 

If you are someone who enjoys a more modern and elegant look, opting for a combination of maroon or purple with black or grey with hints of beige or gold can help you create a tasteful, opulent look. Maroon and purple are often associated with opulence and romance, while the black adds an edge to the space, making it a great scheme for bedrooms for couples. 

3. Cool colour combinations 

Ideal for bedrooms for kids,teenagers or for spaces that are small and do not have ample natural light, cool colour combinations help create an illusion of space. It also helps make the space look airy, relaxing and calming. As children tend to use their rooms to not just rest but to study or play as well, it is ideal to go for cool colours as they make the space look lively without making it seem too harsh. 

Navy blue and white has become one of the most trending colour combinations in recent times as it makes the space look elegant, crisp and relaxing at the same time. A great combination for kids and teenagers, this is a cool colour palette inspired by the endless expanse of the sea and the sky. 

Green paired with grey and white is another unique combination that you must try if you wish to go for a calm, yet modern theme. Be it a lively leaf green or a beautiful olive green, pairing it with soft greys and start white can help you create a spectacular space that is opulent yet earthy without having too many colours. 

If you seek a more feminine space, pairing pink with gold can be a great option for you. It makes for a great combination for both adults and kids and creates an ambiance of luxury enveloped in the softness of shades of pink used. 

Light blue and white paired with another colour like yellow, red or green makes for a fun and lively combination for a kids bedroom. The softness of the blue and the boldness of crispy whites work well with a hint of bright colours to add life and character to the space without being too overwhelming for a child. 

We hope that you are able to find a colour scheme that resonates with you from this assortment of trending colour schemes used for bedrooms across the world. Once you have the theme in mind, you can apply it tastefully across your bedroom in the form of laminates for wardrobes, wall finishes, upholstery etc.
