Modern Lines
White is the perfect foil for a pairing of yellow and pink, allowing the colours to sing out. A steel-blue upholstered bed acts as a cool contrast. Soft plaster pink works to sooth any brash tones for a calming overall look.
• Shop at Dunelm for a good range of bedspreads and throws.

Simply Rustic
Pared-back, natural and a limited, neutral colour palette is key to this rustic bedroom. A bespoke panelled headboard cleverly opens out to enclose the bed or folds flat against the wall. Coastal-inspired artwork adds interest.

Watercolour Dream
Recreate the romance of an artist's studio with ethereal colours and abstract patterns. Pared-back black furniture provides definition to the impressionistic cushions and pale ombre wall.
• If you're in need of a new bed, do some research and look/test in store if possible. The likes of Dreams, Bensons for Beds, Feather & Black and Furniture Village are good places to start.

Drifting Away
Unlike the other rooms in this dark and dramatic period property, the bedroom is defined by sky blue walls and a cloud-like pendant light, which adds a quirky touch. Artwork and a shapely mirror add interest to the big expanse of wall.

Boxing Clever
Make more of the shelf space in a built-in cupboard by using magazine files and box storage to organise paperwork and knick knacks. Choose from a matching collection to keep the look neat and stylish. The vintage finds stand out to best effect against a crisp, white backdrop.

French Flair
The woodwork in this classic country style home has been painted in a darker shade of sage than the walls. This traditional technique makes a decorative feature of the picture rail and skirting board. French-style furniture adds a sense of grandeur.

True blue
Transform a neutral bedstead with a floral duvet and pillowcases. Finish with a wool throw in a paler sky hue for an elegant look. To make your room feel larger and brighter, paint the walls in a chalky off-white or pale shade of blue. For a more dramatic statement try a darker backdrop, which will look gorgeous with bright white and inky blue linens.
• Shop a range of wool throws at the National Trust
