Bold and Colorful Statement Headboards


It's often said that a bedroom should evoke feelings of serenity and relaxation, allowing us to come home after a long day of work and unwind in our own sacred space. However today, instead of looking at typical bedrooms featuring a soft or light color palette and subtle lines or design elements, I thought I'd show you several bedrooms that break this trend in their color schemes and bold patterns. In this post I'm choosing to focus mainly on headboards that bring these design elements front and center. I hope you enjoy!





I love how the bold red patterned headboard above contrasts with the softer tan walls, making it the main focus of the room and adding a ton of interest to an otherwise subdued color palette.





The bedroom above does a great job of mixing bold patterns (such as in the striped curtains and patterned headboard) in colors that make a statement and pair nicely with each other as opposed to matching perfectly. This allows the two elements, particularly the headboard, to stand out on their own while still creating a cohesive look that's pleasing to the eye.





The bold yellow floral pattern of the headboard above is definitely a favorite of mine. It certainly makes a statement and draws attention to itself, but at the same time fits in wonderfully with the color scheme of the entire room. I also can't help but like the beautiful yellow and pale blue color palette.

The headboard showcased in the bedroom above is great in that it has a fun and colorful pattern, but in addition it incorporates all of the colors seen in the rest of the room. The pinks, reds, purples and even bits of green in the headboard can also be seen in the pillows, blankets and accessories of the room such as the flowers. In this way the headboard works as a focal point for the room in its bold pattern and colors, as well as in the way it brings the rest of the room together through its own color palette. 





The hot pink rectangular headboard pictured above is a lot of fun and adds the perfect pop of color to liven up the space. Contrasting with the space's general color palette of black white (and bits of green and other shades of pink), the boldness of the headboard's color puts it front and center. In addition, its rectangular shape fits nicely with the geometric shapes and patterns that appear in other elements of the space, such as the bedding and tiled bathroom floors in the background.

In this final picture, the headboard adds a bold pattern to the room and also features a dark grey color that stands out from the rest of the space's color palette of light grey and white. In this way it is able to stand out and add interest, while still fitting in perfectly with the rest of the room.





Thanks so much everyone and I'll see you again soon!
