All About Color: Bed and Bath Trends Today

The main trend in bed and bath décor today is making a statement about color. Bold, sophisticated and modern expressions of color are in, while fluorescent and pastel expressions are out. Stripes prevail over fussy patterns. Go crazy with colors, but keep them subtle, never extreme.

Color your bed

You may use color in many ways, but the most trendy way of expressing your style right now is in the abundant use of decorative pillows. Decorative pillows are all the rage in home décor today, and they come in all sorts of shapes, sizes, and styles.

Throw as many as you like over the bed to create an overall effect of a rich and sophisticated color explosion. Choose decorative pillows that are printed with enriched brights; blues and yellows, orange and greens. Decorative pillows make exceptional statements when they are printed with a complex mix of vertical and horizontal stripes. Other excellent choices are decorative pillows that come with buttons, pockets, ribbons and textured fabrics.

The impact of color in your bedroom should reflect the overall design concept of your duvet covers, sheets, coverlets, and rugs.

Color your bath

Color is back for the bath as well. In the bathroom, color is used in similar ways as in the bedroom. Instead of pillows, however, experiment with towels, shower curtains, mats, robes, and slippers. Use sophisticated brights, that are rich in color, but are not garish and not pastel. Something in between. Mix and match: greens and oranges, blues and yellows.

In the bathroom, color statements should reflect luxury and comfort. Select towels, mats, curtains of ultra quality. Luxury is a basic characteristic of bath trends today.
