You don’t have to use bright red in your decor or have red wall paint, and you can still end up with an amazing bedroom. Here, a transitional space is accented by a large rug with a Southwestern motif. The colors in the bedding, throw pillows, and furniture tie into those found in the rug, and the wood tones in the space warm things up even more. A few vintage prints and glam golden accessories liven up the space and give this room character and style.

3. Bright and bold wallpaper

This red bedroom brings the drama with eye popping wall paper that features red flowers. Pillows on the bed have the same pattern, and a red ottoman, curtains, floor lamp, and seating add more touches of color. To balance out the vibrant shade, the bedding is primarily white and the walls and ceiling throughout the rest of the room are as well. Having a neutral carpet with an interesting pattern breaks up the space so things don’t look too matchy-matchy.

4. Red bohemian bedding

This red bedroom is plush, lavish, and decked out with heavy accents of burgundy and more vibrant shades. The lines of the furniture, window treatments, gilded gold decor, and generous runner provide an Old World, elegant feel.

A red bedroom can easily become a contemporary masterpiece, just add your own unique touches. In this space, the highlight is a bicycle that was spray painted red and propped up above the bed — it’s an off-beat headboard that has huge style payoff. A white, black, and gray graphic print panel behind the bed, two corners painted in red, and black, and checkerboard curtains add cool style to the room. Because there are so many patterns and textures incorporated into the design, it was a smart move to keep the bedding and most of the walls solid white.

7. Drama and romance

Interesting accessories including gold and crystal lamps, a golden mirror, and a fantastic light fixture take this room over the top in a magnificent way.
