Looking for a more elegant take on an all-white look? Subtle accents of grey will lend a softer touch to your bedroom and still be in keeping with your neutral theme. Add contrasting black to create a modern monochrome look. Add mirrored furniture and chic lamps for a clever twist on this classic style.
Texture is another great way to mix-up an all-white bedroom design. Knitted cushions, woollen throws and thick rugs add texture and depth to an all-white decor. Think Scandinavian bedroom ideas meets minimal Boho design and you will nail your new look.

1. Go for white and warm woods

Whether you create a room that is rustic or glamorous, white and wood are a always a winning combination. The plain white wall and window is a blank canvas for furniture to stand out and become the focal point.
The white shutters and wood flooring continue the scheme, and could be easily swapped out with white painted floorboards and a wooden venetian blind, to reverse the scheme. The painted hallway door adds a clever pink addition to the room when it open, and provides a seamless paint effect in the hallway when closed.
2. Keep a space bright with brilliant white

White paint is ideal for small bedrooms, particularly where there is a natural light source. Pure brilliant white is devoid of all pigment meaning it reflects back nearly all light that hits it. This therefore helps to brighten a small space by bouncing light into the shadows, to help illuminate the rest of the room – especially sloping loft roofs.
3. Add depth to white by using pattern and texture

You can keep the colour scheme neutral while still embracing pattern and textures, to add depth. A white paisley pattern on a light grey background provides just enough interest on a feature wall, while the remaining walls shine bright in white. Textured cushions and throws in muted tones, over crisps white bedding, add layers of interest.
Mirrored accessories help to reflect light and make the whites feel even brighter.
