BEDROOM DESIGN - what does your bedroom colour say about you?

The bedroom is our most private and intimate space. It reflects a different part of us, a more personal side, and is not necessarily open to public viewing.


 

The bedroom is less about what we want to tell the world about ourselves and more about what we want to tell ourselves about ourselves.

Like fashion, colour, design and decor choices say a lot about them. We don't want to jump to conclusions or judge a book by its cover, but often it's not too hard to understand some basics of a person's lifestyle by looking at a bedroom.

Peach - You are an optimist – a morning person who rarely lets the pitfalls of the world break your sunshine-coloured glasses.

You love large groups and social outings, and you’re usually the first person people turn to when they need a friend. You radiate energy and cheer and take it as your personal mission to brighten someone’s sad day. You also put a high priority on health and fitness, taking full advantage of the happy power of endorphins.

 

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hot Pink - You could give Barbie tips on how to be girly. You are playful, romantic and joyful and have no desire to grow up, just yet. You are constantly going — whether to spin class, real class or parties.

You are charming and tender, but you don’t like to be serious and are distracted easily. You are attracted to the bright and shiny things in the world and are open to anything new and adventurous. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lavender - As the grown-up pink, the purple on your bedroom walls reflects your femininity and your elegance, allowing you to remember your girlhood while embracing the grace you’ve acquired through growing up.

You’re a spiritual person who enjoys the mysteries of life, and you radiate a delicate sophistication. You can still be playful, but you also know when to be serious and you can demand respect when necessary. 

Red - You are warm, passionate and ready to take on the world. You are very active and embrace surprises and change, although you may have a short temper.

You desire an eventful life full of adventure and attention. For you, your bedroom is so much more than a sleeping chamber. It acts as your office, your play room and your inspiration. You are creative and ambitious and the intensity of your room pushes you to embrace those attributes even more.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Green - In your busy life, you strive to find peace and calmness. You find happiness through stability, harmony and balance, and you encourage sustainable living and business practices.

You understand the importance of staying in shape physically, mentally and emotionally, and you actively try to maintain tranquillity within your home and life. You don’t just sleep in your room, but you prefer to use it for calm activities, such as reading and meditating. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Navy- Your bedroom is almost sacred to you, providing a place of tranquillity and relaxation. You have sophisticated taste and like order and direction in your life.

Entering your bedroom is like entering your sanctuary, and the dark, comforting colour helps you unwind from your day and focus solely on recharging your body and nurturing your mind through sleep. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Gold – You are generous, compassionate and have a good sense of understanding yourself.

It is said people who are drawn to the colour gold are caring, loving and giving. It is also associated with wisdom, enlightenment and power. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Beige - Like your room, you tend to be accommodating and neutral. You are a natural giver, who tends to deflect to others’ needs before your own.

You can be a bit of a homebody, but you love inviting people over and hosting them in your warm and comforting house. You enjoy the traditions and classics of life, and you often find change intimidating. You’re a hard worker, who never promises something you can’t fulfill and almost always over-delivers. 

Brown - You have stamina and patience, you also tend to be very solid, dependable, steady and conservative. You are not impulsive, and may be inarticulate and tactless but you love responsibility and are reliable and kind.

If you chose Brown, watch out for a tendency to be obstinate and inflexible.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

White, with Posters, Paintings and Pictures - Instead of choosing just one colour to define you, you would rather have your bedroom focus on all of the things you love. You like clean lines, order and precision, and you think pictures are worth much more than 1,000 words.

You find change freeing and necessary, and you like to switch things up in your room often. You also display the most important things in your life in your room, and just about every piece hanging on your wall is a conversation starter. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Gray - You are cautious and compromising. You search for composure and peace and often work hard without reward.

You like life to run on an even keel with few ups and downs, and may be withdrawing from life and suppress your personality. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Black - You are dignified and impressive without being showy. You like to give the appearance of mystery, hidden depths and inner longings.

People who choose black as their favourite colour are often artistic and sensitive.  While these people aren't introverts, they are careful with the details of their lives and do not share easily with others.
