23 Trending Earthy Bedroom Ideas For a Peaceful, Boho-Chic Vibe
1.Leaning Into Green
Incorporating green in some way into your earthy bedroom scheme seems like an obvious choice.
Certain tones of green such as sage green are virtually one of the easiest hues on the eye, and it’s hard not to feel calm and serene in the company of a green.
If you lean into a slighter darker green shade like the below, do bring in warmer or neutral hues to balance the intensity of the colour, resulting in a warm, well balanced colour scheme.
2. Warm, Terracotta Tones
Terracotta and rusty red tones are synonymous with an earthy colour scheme. Introducing them into textiles on your bed with throws and cushions is a subtle, yet gorgeous way to get onboard with this trending design style.
Stick to a warm off-white on the walls which will serve as the perfect neutral base to your design.
3. Focus On Natural Materials
Natural materials such as rattan and seagrass are integral when styling an earthy bedroom. Their natural warmth adds texture and interest the space.
Better yet, swap your traditional bedside table lamp for a rattan floor lamp, they’ll add an ambient glow to the darkest corners of your room, whilst serving as an earthy, warm addition during the day time.
If you’re looking for other natural lighting ideas such as bamboo pendants, Lanna Passa has such an authentic range which complements any earthy bedroom scheme.
4. Soft Layering
Layering is the key to a well executed interior that feels warm, and inspiring.
Note the earthy wooden details that frame the room, with soft neutral layers through the textiles on the bed and window dressings.
5. Boho Meets Earthy Decor
Boho inspired design really does merge with earthy home decor schemes. If you want more of a boho feel, do lean into the inclusion of more natural materials such as rattan and bamboo.
Use punchier colours such as warm pinks and mustard yellows.
6. Rich, Sumptuous Hues
When can we move in? You can’t help but look at this beautiful bedroom below and just feel instantly relaxed.
The double drenching look, using a slighter darker, complementary hue on the ceiling, really helps envelope the room and make it feel cosier. Rich pinks and soft browns are super on trend right now, and they pair so well in an earthy scheme.
7. Play With Soft & Dark Tones
Wooden tones are an absolute essential in an earthy colour scheme. Lean into their darkness and layer with refreshing, soft tones for a beautiful juxtaposition in your interior.
8. Playful Fabric
One of the best ways to add interest to a colour scheme is by introducing warm, playful fabrics.
An earthy scheme is no different, lean into warm reds, yellows and greens in your fabric choices to tie the bedroom together.
9. Use Green As Your Base
Another example of how great dark green can look on bedroom walls.
If you have a cold north facing room, choosing to lean into the darkness will help the room to feel cosier. If you want something a bit lighter and breezier, opt for a soft sage green such as Mizzle from Farrow and Ball.
10. Trending Bedroom Colour
Rich, sumptuous browns are one of the trending bedroom colours for 2024 and beyond.
They’re a refreshing alternative to beiges and warmer neutrals and they make for a gorgeous foundation in a bedroom. Add a set of white bed sheets for a crisp contrast and layer on those earthy, rusty tones on the cushions and throws.
11. Earthy Textures
Soft layers of neutral tones and earthy textures in this bedroom below create a sense of calm and relaxation.
When choosing cushions for your bed, mix between solid colours and pattern for a fun mix of colour and texture.
12. Tongue and Groove Panelling
T&G panelling is a popular choice for covering a wall in an interior because it adds instant depth without the need to fill the wall with artwork or mirrors.
The soft lines also elevate the room. If you’re looking to create either a modern or traditional scheme, it’s a great choice.
13. Warm, Ambient Lighting
No earthy scheme is complete in a bedroom with a warm, ambient lighting scheme.
The ‘overhead light’ is one that is used as a last resort, and not one that creates that cosy scheme. Do include wall lights, floor lamps or table lamps into your bedroom for a layered lighting scheme.
14. Wooden Tones
This is one of our favourite earthy bedroom schemes, it’s nailed the brief perfectly!
Do use wooden furniture and tones throughout, it gives natural definition without having to use black.
15. Use Black As A Defining Accent
Alternatively, black is a fail safe accent in any colour scheme. It will add definition, ground the room and bring a touch of modernity with it.
Plus, you only need to use it in a few well placed areas for your room to feel the benefit of this colour.
16. A Grounding Accent Wall
Layer the cosy factor on by adding a bold, statement making accent wall to your bed wall.
This rich, chocolate black shade instantly draws the eye in and creates the perfect base for an earthy, rich inspired colour scheme. Use similar chocolate shades through the textiles so that one wall colour feels intentional in the bedroom.
17. Green & White Is A Classic Combo
If you’re ever stuck for paint ideas, green and white is really one of those classic combos that feels good in any room.
It adds a fresh approach to an earthy colour scheme, and you can introduce warmer shades into your textiles and decor accessories.
18. Have Fun With Your Headboard
Headboards are art within their own right, and in recent years, the more elaborate, upholstered bed frames are in.
This beautiful terracotta headboard is finished with dark piping for a well defined look. Paired with the soft wall paint, and it’s just the most serene, soothing space to look at.
19. Brown Is In
Yep, whether you like it or not, brown is in.
It’s one of those colours that’s had a bit of a rap over the years, but it’s a gorgeous alternative to an olive green or a lighter neutral. When paired with other earthy colours it feels nothing short of warm and cosy in a bedroom.
20. Fluted Panelling
Take inspiration from the below and bring a 3D effect to your bed wall with fluted panelling.
This style of panelling is very well suited to more contemporary homes. Whilst neutral in nature, you can still incorporate those earthy accents through textiles and decor.
21. Add Half Wall Panelling For Character
Half wall panelling has long been a popular choice to add instant character and depth to any room of the house.
It provides a perfect opportunity to incorporate another colour into the mix, and we love this green which is complemented by a warm off-white, creating a cosy, soothing look.
22. Soften White With Warm Hues
Those crisp white bed sheets can look just as good in a moody, earthy colour scheme. Take note of the below, the pairing with warm neutrals, wooden tones and greens creates a light, breezy take on an earthy colour palette.
23. Create An Earthy Feel With Wallpaper
What about considering wallpaper? Having just wallpapered our own bedroom, I can vouch for the fact that a gorgeous pattern creates such as cosy feel in a room that paint just can’t compete with in its own.
You don’t have to use it throughout the whole space, one wall or a half wall look like the below is enough to benefit from the rich and warmth of it. Lean into green, red, or orange tones to complement an earthy colour scheme.
