10 Ways to Set Your Bedroom Style With Flooring
Once you’ve decided on the flooring, you can rest easy, because your bedroom style takes its cue from this key surface
Warm wood, soft silk or natural texture – choosing your bedroom flooring is a big decision. Because once you’ve set your tone, the rest of the décor takes its cue from it. Here are 10 beautiful ways to kick-start a new style in your most restful room.
Go wild for geometrics
Zigzagging lines raise the game in this loft apartment with a fold-out bed, the defined lines followed through in the wardrobe door grid and the shelves. It’s the perfect mood-setter for this compact, urban space.

Warm up with wood
This contemporary flow of rooms is united by warm-toned timber boards with a silken sheen to them. Real wood is always going to be richest, but engineered boards are increasingly good quality as a second choice that can be easier to lay and look after.

Zing it up with a rug
This citrus-coloured rug is a cue for equally bold artwork and contrasting upholstery on the chairs. Grey and lemon yellow or lime green are always good combinations, but think about other effective contrasts if you want to use colour on a rug.

Stay pale and interesting
A lighter tone of natural wood is very versatile and easy on the eye. It’s used here as a way to unite the taupes, creams and caramels, and emphasises the fact that, in a bedroom, it’s about textures and how things feel as well as how they look.

Weave magic with sisal
Sisal, coir and seagrass all bring natural textures into the bedroom and work with pale greys, seaside whites and blacks, thanks to the hues that run through their fibres. These carpets are not always the kindest on feet first thing in the morning, but they’re very hard-wearing and versatile. Look out for new weaves that alternate wool and sisal threads for a softer touch.

Wear it weathered
Sanded and painted floorboards set the scene for a French-style space, with painted furniture, tactile linen and cool cotton. If you’re preparing the floor yourself, it’s all about the boring prep stage, otherwise you could end up with flaking paint rather than the artfully weathered look displayed so well here.

Anchor a scheme
A neutral rug can pull a scheme together, here uniting the different pieces of furniture and giving the room a clear centre. This scheme is traditional, but the rug keeps it from being old fashioned with an on-trend zigzag weave.

Set the colour dial
This bedroom is all about teal, so the rug is a really important focal point. Without it, the curtains, headboard, chair and sofa could look a bit lost and float in their individual spaces. But by grounding the scheme with this bold, beautiful rug, the designer makes full use of the generous space.

Totally luxe is the keynote mood of this space, with a snow-soft silken carpet, the texture and colour of which is picked up in the rest of the décor. A silk, or silk-look viscose, carpet feels and looks different, picking up the light in a way that wool won’t.
