Five ways to bring the ‘quiet luxury’ trend into your bedroom
Quiet luxury took the world by storm in 2023, becoming one of the hottest fashion and home décor trends. This look maintains its popularity in 2024, so it could be perfect if you want to inject new life into your home.
Also known as the ‘old money’ style, it balances simple lines and refined furnishing with understated elegance. Think of the aesthetic of the TV show Succession and that’s exactly what to aim for here. It shuns bling and ostentatiousness for polished minimalism and functionality.
This theme naturally lends itself to the calm sanctuary of the bedroom, elevating its charm and adding a new layer of comfort. If quiet luxury sounds like a trend you would like to try, here are some ways to lean into it.
Choose gentle colours
A muted, neutral palette is a simple way to bring the quiet luxury style into your bedroom. The colour tones will be the foundation of the room's design, so getting them right is a must. Here are some ways to utilise colours:
- Use earth or lighter browns and beiges to form the main colour scheme
- Add sage and olive-coloured features to complement these natural shades
- Try warm cream furnishings to add balance and brighten up smaller spaces
Use quality materials for your furniture
Nothing says quiet luxury like quality materials. From your bed to the dressing table and curtains, there are several ways to bring high-quality finishes to your room.
Natural materials like hardwood or stone are sturdy and stylish and can be used for many bedroom furnishings. Rounded shapes and curved edges are another quiet luxury style that creates clean lines and ensures a smooth flow. Lavish textures such as velvet effortlessly enhance curtains and throws.
Highlight period features
If you have any period detailing, embrace it. These features are authentic elements that hint at your home's heritage and naturally fit the quiet luxury trend.
Painting beams in brown tones can draw welcome attention to them while adding a lease of life to your fireplace or updating your wall panelling can bring these unique details to life.
Free up floor space
Quiet luxury is always quality over quantity. Make sure you add excellent furnishings without too many distractions. An overcrowded room can hinder this theme, so taking time to declutter your floor space is vital. Alongside helping you achieve the quiet luxury trend, removing clutter is also great for our mental health and creates a sense of calm.
Adding quality storage solutions helps with the design and any clutter problems. We recommend fitted wardrobes as they provide ample storage space while complementing the style you're creating.
Choose what should be on show to fit the quiet luxury design, get rid of unwanted items, and store cherished possessions if they don't quite fit the brief.
Incorporate antique furniture
Vintage pieces offer a sense of refined elegance and highlight quiet luxury with ease. We suggest adding the following pieces:
- A chair with rounded edges
- A vintage dressing table in a beige or brown tone
- A rustic gold-framed mirror
