Interior Styling Guide: Master Bedroom
Your master bedroom should feel like a relaxed retreat — a space that rejuvenates and comforts.
The furniture, artwork and styling pieces in a master bedroom all contribute to the mood and enjoyment of the space, and it’s one of the most personal spaces in a home, so considering the colours, textures, shapes and even scents is key to creating the right look and feel.
Keep reading for my master bedroom interior styling guide + my top product picks for furniture, bedding, artwork, lighting and more.
Master Bedroom Furniture
Like with any other room in your home, the larger furniture pieces that get the most use should be high-quality and timeless in design. This includes a bed frame or bedhead, bedside tables, and an armchair or desk if the space allows.
Master Bedroom Bed Linen
If you’re like me, drifting to sleep in soft, comfortable bed linen makes all the difference at night. Quality bed linen is an investment, and for good reason. Choosing premium bed linen in natural fibres that you find comfortable is vital in the quest for better sleep. I personally prefer pure linen.
Master Bedroom Lighting
The right lighting instantly shifts the mood and feeling of a room. In a master bedroom, we want there to be sources of ambient lighting to maintain the soft, comfortable atmosphere that’s conducive to rest and relaxation. Table lamps, floor lamps, pendant lights and wall lights or sconces are all great options rather than relying on overhead lighting

Master Bedroom Artwork
I often see master bedrooms with bare walls that are lacking the extra finishing touches that make the space feel personal and warm. I’m all for a minimalist style, especially if you have textured or panelled walls that shine on their own, but most master bedrooms benefit from well-placed artwork to elevate the space.
Master Bedroom Rugs
Does your master bedroom look unfinished? It might be because all of your furniture pieces are floating separately and the space lacks connection. A floor rug under your bed frame is perfect for anchoring the centre of the room and providing a soft, luxurious landing underfoot.
Master Bedroom Plants
A strategically-placed indoor plant is always high on my list when putting together a master bedroom interior styling concept. I always suggest one statement tree or plant in a well-lit corner that acts as a living organic sculpture.
Master Bedroom Scent
Have you discovered the instant calm feeling after lightly spraying your bed linen with an interior scent? If you’re like me, having a soothing scent from a candle, oil diffuser, incense or room spray helps to set the mood for a perfect night of rest. A must for your bedside.
