Ready to breathe life into your bedroom? We’ll show you how to with Tranquil Dawn, Dulux Colour of the Year 2020. Many of us are taking a more human approach to life, work and play, seeking spaces that reflect who we are. The bedroom is a special place to reset away from the world, so let us help you transform your room with a mood to suit you.
1. Bring nature in with Tranquil Dawn
Go simple and seamless with one block colour. Conjure up the colours of a crisp spring morning with our sky green hue, Tranquil Dawn. Its pastel shade creates a soft, nurturing space. Painting your walls and window panels entirely in one tone gives a comforting cocoon result. Bring the natural, fresh look together with a lush green plant. Add pops of colour with blush pink cushions and complement Tranquil Dawn with a sea blue linen to mimic a seaside escape.

2. Delight the senses with a bright bedroom
Energise your space with bright pinks and oranges. Mask off a mini-feature in a similar tone for added interest and paint your headboard in a burnt orange for standout furniture. Make the most of that first light with Tranquil Dawn against the window. Its gentle and muted shade will give a beautiful airy effect, so you can really appreciate the start of every day. Use bold shapes with retro accessories, pops of green bedroom décor and graphic textiles for a trendy edge.

3. Strip back with simple tones for a minimal bedroom
Achieve a calming atmosphere for careful thought. Use deep purples and blues for a sophisticated look. Why not try a relaxing bedroom idea using the split effect to give your room depth? Layer your bedding with similar tones to create a sense of flow and introduce drama with a candle. Decorate sparingly for a clear space to contemplate and put your thoughts into perspective.

4. Express your creativity with a rich autumn bedroom
Colour your walls in a sumptuous shade – the rich hue of an olive-green bedroom is great for immersive tone-on-tone styling. Add a sense of height with an opulent dusky pink across the top third of your walls. Express yourself by telling a story with your belongings. Paint your window sides in Tranquil Dawn for a bright and airy canvas to showcase treasured art or postcards. Get that feeling of luxury through different textures – combine velvet, linen and cotton for a comfortable setting to explore and create.
