June 14, 2008
One of the most pleasing decorating makeovers you can carry out is that of remodeling the master bedroom because this is a room where people spend a great deal of their lives but it can easily be more than just a place to sleep. When the bedroom is a good size it provides more versatility to enjoy it in other ways a place to relax in during the day or evening and not just at night. In Europe of course, in particular, France and Italy, the master bedroom has always had a more sensual feel it.
If you are looking to give it a sensual feel then you need to consider certain colors that will help achieve this like shades of cream, peach, pink and red. Of course to improve upon this and enhance the atmosphere further you will need the subtle use of mirrors and candles along with some beautiful tropical plants; I am sure you can see the appeal to this already. For other the room can be just as easily converted into a room where a good book can be read on a strategically placed chair or on the bed itself; however this idea goes back to the days when bedrooms were used far more than they are today.
Be sure to provide enough light for reading, which can be done without having to flood the room with harsh reading lights by placing softer lighting throughout the room. The colors used when you create this type of bedroom are paramount for it to work well, so use shades of antique amber or slate blue for example. If you are trying to achieve a sanctuary effect when remodeling the master bedroom, then soft pillows, luxurious throws, landscape paintings and mirrors will promote private reflection.
All that needs to be done to also turn this into a pleasant place to read quietly is a comfortable chair, a reading lamp and a small circular table. When remodeling a master bedroom this way, i.e. designed to create a place where you retreat from the world and unwind, it should provide feeling of total privacy which can be improved by displaying photos of friends, family, and places you love. The most comfortable colors for a sanctuary style room are darker shades like chocolate brown, deep greens and cobalt blues which help make the room feel cozy.
In Closing
For those people where space is not an issue when they remodel their master bedroom, why not add a few extra touches like a small desk to write on and perhaps some music to listen to. Even fridges are becoming more popular now for storing drinks but this really needs to be placed in a position where it will not disturb the effect you are trying to achieve. Unlike other rooms in your home, remodeling the master bedroom can be allowed a great deal of flexibility however, beware you don’t go too far and find that once in there you don’t have much of a reason to leave it.
