This year is all about exciting and bold design choices

When Spring begins, homeowners start looking ahead and planning how to create a fresh, serene bedroom that will provide a relaxing night’s sleep. But what are the big bedroom trends for this season?

This year, shoppers are increasingly embracing the idea of bringing luxury into their homes by blending the exciting and the relaxing to create a stylish room that will induce the ultimate
restful night’s sleep. The last few years have seen function overtake façade, but this year is all about exciting and bold design choices coupled with bespoke, unique elements that will make the bedroom the sanctuary of the home. 

While homeowners have traditionally been more reserved in their approach to interior design, with many preferring muted tones, we’re now seeing an explosion of colour - particularly in the bedroom. In 2015, it was clear colour and patterns were starting to emerge as the popular choices over duller shades of beige and cream that have historically been so popular, and 2016 shows no signs of this trend abating. Daring design-loving shoppers should opt for a touch of the dramatic this Spring with bold mustard yellow, burnt orange and deep blue shades in the bedroom. Those who prefer a more tranquil look should go for soft blush pink and cool grey paired with warm copper accessories in a bid to revamp their bedroom and make a real style statement.

With this year’s Pantone colour of the year named as Rose Quartz and Serenity, it’s clear there’s a real appetite for colour and expression rather than playing it safe and remaining neutral in the home. This Spring, it’s all about injecting personality into your interiors and creating a visual feast for the eyes and one of the best ways to do this is to make use of statement furniture.

Often, the only way to truly create such a stunning centrepiece is to design an entirely bespoke item, made to exact requirements and tastes. Hypnos is increasingly producing unique bed designs that will create a focal point in the bedroom and give it the wow factor. This can be anything from a round bed through to the finishing touches. 

Headboards are set to be a big trend as they allow homeowners to create a daring centrepiece for their bed. Bolder, more striking colours are becoming increasingly popular as they can be used to inject a splash of colour to liven up a room.

Consumers are also becoming increasingly eco-aware and looking for products that have been ethically sourced. With increased interest in the materials used in beds, responsible shoppers are looking for mattresses made with natural fillings, FSC or PEFC certified timbers and more and more bed and furniture manufacturers are now adjusting the specification of their products to ensure they’re more sustainable.

Spring and Summer is set to showcase a range of brave and daring design choices, with the demand for unique, bespoke items continuing to grow as more and more shoppers look to make something special and ethical for their home. There’s no doubt that we can expect to see bedrooms across the UK looking bolder than ever, with a beautiful bed featured at the heart of them.
