AKIN ATELIER<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Cement tile flooring gives this bedroom<\/strong><\/a> designed by\u00a0Akin Atelier an industrial edge while the loose linens and cream and sand-tone pieces<\/strong><\/a> make it feel laidback and beachy. Together, the colors evoke a misty morning by the sea.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

02. Gray-Green and Off-White<\/span>\n<\/h3>\n

SARAH SOLIS<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Sarah Solis\u00a0used dark gray-green and a rich, near-black shade of red as her neutral accent colors<\/strong><\/a> in this contemporary Mediterranean revival bedroom. While subtle, both of the accent colors bring just a touch of vibrance to the otherwise black and off-white bedroom<\/strong><\/a>. A framed photograph brings the palette together.<\/p>\n

03. Minimalist Dark Green and Burnt Orange<\/span>\n<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>
SHAPELESS STUDIO<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Dark green and rich burnt orange function together as neutrals in this context, where only essential items are on display. Designed by Shapeless Studio, this bedroom<\/strong><\/a> strikes a nice balance between urban sophistication<\/strong> <\/a>and laidback country style.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

04. Gray, Light Wood, and White<\/span>\n<\/h3>\n

NICOLE ENGLAND<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Minimalism doesn\u2019t have to be cold! In this farmhouse bedroom<\/strong><\/a> designed by British firm\u00a0McLaren.Excell, the loft bedroom features tons of warm wood and laidback linens in a grayscale color scheme for a casual, welcoming mood.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

05. Cream and Light Gray<\/span>\n<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>
ANDREW FRASZ<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Here\u2019s a more formal take on neutral bedroom design<\/strong><\/a>:\u00a0Victoria Hagan incorporated plenty of textiles to soften and humanize the scale of the space. The high ceilings bring drama, but the warm greige colors<\/strong><\/a> ensure that it doesn\u2019t feel austere nor cavernous.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

06. Fawn and Navy<\/span>\n<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>
SHAPELESS STUDIO<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

AP Design House\u2019s neutral bedroom<\/strong><\/a> is punctuated by eye-catching metal sculptures and chrome accents that play up the cool tones and contrast the warmer neutrals. The rich layers of texture make it a cozy and inviting yet modern and sleek<\/strong><\/a> respite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

07. Clay and Navy<\/span>\n<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>
HEIDI CAILLIER<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In this eclectic bedroom<\/strong><\/a> designed by\u00a0Heidi Caillier, the dynamic layers of prints, materials, and styles make a unique and personality-packed impression. Yet, the neutral, more muted colors help keep the space from becoming overtly bold. The scheme of navy and rose clay works especially well with the modern black accents and classic wood furniture<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

08. Pale Yellow and White<\/span>\n<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>
DOUGLAS FRIEDMAN<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

If you want to lean a little yellower but don\u2019t want to go full-on sunny, consider a buttercream approach, as Anne Pyne did in her New York City bedroom.<\/p>\n

09. Dark Green<\/span>\n<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>
GIEVES ANDERSON<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

David Frazier took a moody and earthy approach in his New York City apartment bedroom<\/strong><\/a>. While the color (Studio Green from Farrow & Ball) is worth praising, it\u2019s also the texture-rich finish that elevates the walls. \u201cWe wanted to showcase the movement in the plaster, so we had the walls painted in a satin finish,\u201d he explains. \u201cit gives a certain depth that we wouldn\u2019t have been able to achieve with a flat paint.\u201d<\/p>\n

10. Costal Blue and White<\/span>\n<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>
AP DESIGN HOUSE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Sky blue is a neutral everywhere, in our books, but especially in seaside locales. A preppy blue and white striped slipcover brightens up the headboard in this coastal bedroom<\/strong><\/a> by AP Design House. The rattan and woven pieces<\/strong><\/a> are also great beach house staples.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

11. Brown and Honey<\/span>\n<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>
FIONA LYNCH STUDIO<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This chocolate color is more calming than it is energizing, so if you\u2019re looking for a saturated neutral, this is a great source of inspiration.<\/strong><\/a> Designer\u00a0Fiona Lynch felt the color, Rich Biscuit by Dulux, was perfect for a bedroom, and especially when paired with offbeat accents for an eclectic elegance.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

12. Modern Blue, Black, and White<\/span>\n<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>
HARIS KENJAR<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In this primary bedroom<\/strong><\/a>, designer\u00a0Andy Beers of Ore Studios opted for less saturated versions of the colors used in the common rooms for a calming but continuous design. Crisp whites contrast with inky blacks and are united by a deep midnight blue tone.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

13. Red and Light Gray<\/span>\n<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>
TAMSIN JOHNSON INTERIORS<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Red can be surprisingly neutral when paired with the right colors and materials<\/strong><\/a>.\u00a0Tamsin Johnson Interiors used the modern photograph as a jumping-off point for the color scheme.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

14. Black, White, and Gray<\/span>\n<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>

Wall-to-wall gray carpeting provides a soft landing for cold mornings and the floor-to-ceiling steel and glass windows allow the forest view to set the scene for this bedroom<\/strong><\/a> designed by Kathleen McCormick. Midcentury<\/strong><\/a> monochrome details suit the architectural bones of the bedroom beautifully, too.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

15. Blue, Ochre, and Gray<\/span>\n<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>

Phillip Smith opted for a soft gray color on the walls and then brightened up the room with burn orange and blue bedding. A Les Indiennes throw distinguishes the headboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

16. Dark Wood and White<\/span>\n<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>
DOUGLAS FRIEDMAN<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

For a moodier take on neutral decorating, take note of this bedroom<\/strong> <\/a>designed by NicoleHollis. The dark stain of the wood as well as the slate gray bedding and pewter decor make this room sophisticated, sleek, and calming all at once.<\/p>\n

17. Sage and Orange<\/span>\n<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>
SHADE DEGGES<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\u201cI wanted to create a bedroom full of personality,\u201d designer\u00a0Jae Joo says of the main bedroom in this Boston Rowhouse. Though classic and understated, the room brims with character thanks to a shrunken photo gallery, curved furniture<\/strong><\/a>, and colorful accents. The light gray walls look blue in some lighting and green in others; either way, they\u2019re a welcome departure from the go-to white canvas most bedrooms<\/strong><\/a> feature.<\/p>\n

18. Sophisticated Black and Light Gray<\/span>\n<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>
CHRIS MOTTALINI<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\u201cI\u2019m a big believer that within a home, different rooms should evoke different feelings and purposes,\u201d says designer\u00a0Nanette Brown. The rest of the rooms in this NYC home are painted in deep, dark tones, while the bedroom<\/strong><\/a> features the opposite approach. Despite the varying colors, each room shares a sense of refined elegance and restraint.<\/p>\n

19. Mauve and White<\/span>\n<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>

Light mauve pink bedding and artwork add a sweet and playful quality to this neutral and contemporary bedroom<\/strong><\/a> designed by\u00a0Studio Robert McKinley.<\/p>\n
