Mid-Century Modern Bedrooms We Love
Sublime and simple designs.
Mid-century modern is one of our favorite styles because it’s always on trend and easy to recreate. Mid-century modern bedrooms have that lived-in but still indulgent feeling. Check out a few of our favorite designs below for inspiration.
1. Stick with Simple Neutrals
An easy way to create a beautiful and attainable bedroom? Pick a few neutral colors and one accent color for your bedding and decor. Opt for geometric or abstract patterns to really get the mid-century modern look.
Up the coziness of your bedroom with a funky rug. A bold rug accentuates the otherwise sleek furniture and metal finishes in a mid-century modern bedroom. We love coordinating the rug’s color with other decor in the room.
Stick to simplified symmetry by choosing matching table lamps. We love brass and gold options. If you prefer a floor lamp, look for one with a big swooping, arched arm. If you need to maximize floor space, opt for brass wall sconces on either side of the bed.
There’s no better way to spend a Sunday morning than lounging in bed with a crossword puzzle and a latte. Elevate this necessary “me time” space by adding a few special elements to make it feel extra comfortable and cozy. We love a wood-framed mirror, a geometric throw pillow, a plant – or all three.
We know you want an unfussy mid-century modern bedroom. But we know you need a room that feels personal and welcoming. To infuse the room with your aesthetic, prop or hang abstract statement art pieces above your bed and add a comfy throw blanket or area rug. You could also add a storage ottoman or bench for storing PJs.
Mid-century modern furniture favors sleek lines and tapered, leggy frames. Platform beds are popular among this design – whether you go the upholstered or wood route is up to you.
Whether you’re limited on space or not, there are plenty of mid-century modern bedroom sets that fit all different room sizes and budgets. These sets look sleek and take the guesswork out of finding pieces that work together. Bonus: Spend more time reading in bed than picking out a bed.
We love doubling up on nightstands to tie a room together symmetrically. Nightstands give you an easy place to store chargers, books, and other sleep accessories so that your bedroom remains peaceful and uncluttered. Choose a set made from warm-toned woods that features tapered legs.
Running out of places to store off-season sweaters and boots? Adding an armoire to your mid-century modern bedroom is just what you need. Many mid-century modern bed frames sit low to the floor, leaving little space for under-bed storage containers and baskets. An armoire is the ideal way to get your Instagram-worthy capsule wardrobe in order.
We usually reserve sideboards for dining and entryway spaces, but they can be an instant update for any mid-century modern bedroom. Extra storage and a place for your TV? Queue up a new Netflix series and grab a glass of wine.
