Gray Space Interior Design
The combination of red and black is very common in the bedroom. This color duo represents chic, romantic, and elegant. This color incorporation has been made popular during the Art Deco era because it offers clean, polished finishes to products, artwork, and interiors. In this bedroom, still this color combination but in order to prevent the space from falling too traditional, the designer paired it with other neutral colors. Now, the space instantly becomes extraordinary yet chic and elegant.

In order to have a red bedroom, you don’t need to open a can of paint. A rug is an ideal alternative solution without not committing for the long term. Its shapes, sizes, patterns, and textures can bring personality to your bedroom instantly. Or else, you can easily change a new one with new color, size, shape, or pattern if you want to go a different direction in the future.
5. Red Walls Paired With Painted Ceilings

We often see red used commonly in a modern style, but it doesn’t mean that this color is only suitable for a style. This bedroom by Barry Dixon proved that. However, in order to do the same, you still need to remember some important notes. The key is the way you choose very intentional decor. Barry Dixon combined harmoniously elements together. From the elegant red in the fabric of the canopy bed and floral patterns in the curtain and bedframe to the golden frame surrounding the oil painting over the fireplace and wide stripes in the wallpaper.
12. Go Coastal and Comfortable

14. Try Out a Red Gallery Wall

The prints of animals are very suitable for brown and wood elements in this bedroom but the frames are truly the accent in this case. Rather than sticking with black or brown as common, the designer decided to go for a bust of color instead. The red mattresses are used for a cohesive look.
15. Try a Darker Version
Studio Peake
Still red but try deeper shades like maroon or burgundy to find a new mood. In this bedroom from Studio Peake, these tones added a new level of sophistication to the room through throw pillows, headboards, and woven decor items.
