Bedroom Black Decor

Design: Desiree Burns Interiors

While we're certainly fans of the airy all-white bedroom look, there's something about the dark, moody vibes in a black bedroom that we just can't get enough of. The vivid color can instantly transform your home with rich contrast and an elevated style.

Rather than shying away from its boldness, consider adding a darker element to your bedroom that can make your space feel brighter than you may imagine. Interior designers are embracing the fresh, modern look and discovering ways to use black on the walls, bedding, and eye-catching accents that make even small bedrooms feel large and open. Whether you're committing to all-black paint or refreshing your space with black décor, this classic hue can make a striking statement in your home while pairing with a variety of styles.

Below, read on for expert-approved black bedroom ideas to upgrade your space.

Lean on a Farmhouse Foundation

Even a farmhouse bedroom can be upgraded with black accents, and this space is proof. If you're a fan of rustic décor, style black walls with aged wood and natural design elements to make this combination successful.

For a softer statement, blend your black accents with primary colors or jewel tones. Take this vibrant example, which features orange, teal, pink, and gold to make darker shades feel playful.

Infuse a Geometric Twist

Design: Kurated by Kris

A bedroom accent wall is always a great touch, but spicing it up with more than just paint can make a bolder impact. In this space, geometric shapes are built into the wall behind the headboard for a dramatic effect. The glossy black paint reflects light for a shimmering style that grabs attention and makes this room one of a kind.

Rely on the Bedding

Design: Jessica Nelson Design

To test the waters of black décor without cracking open a can of paint (or venturing into wallpaper), change out your bedding first. We love the way this space combines a faded black duvet with deeper accent pillows, dark light fixtures, modern wall art, and a two-toned rug for a monochromatic look.

Build In Patterns

Design: House of Hanes

Like the geometric accent wall above, this bedroom uses texture to accent a dark paint color against bright whites and neutral tones. But instead of pyramid-shaped designs, this space keeps it modern and sleek with simple squares framing the bed. The simple DIY project allows the space to flow with a uniform matte black color.

Add a Boho Tinge

If you're deciding between saturated dark colors and an earthy boho space, let this bedroom be a lesson in blending both styles.

Your love for black décor doesn't have to extend to every corner of your bedroom. The colors making up these sleeping quarters are feminine and soft, but are nicely punctuated with black accents and a glass side table. It gives the deep tone a chance to shine without taking over the room.

Set the Foundation

Design: Modern House Vibes

White walls often serve as blank canvasses for many rooms, but starting with a black accent wall and working from there is a great way to style with darker shades. Because it's so grounding, black makes it easy to build a space that incorporates your personal style—but still feels cozy, defined, and tranquil at the same time.

Offset Through Neutrals

Design: The House Acc

The custom wall molding serves as a built-in frame for this bedroom, lending neutral colors to its bold black furniture. This design masterfully proves that you don't need all-black walls to get the benefits from this shade—and a soft, multi-colored style can be just as impactful.

Opt for a Matte Finish

Design: Desiree Burns Interiors

"Less is more" rings true in a minimalistic space, and when you're working with a playful palette, simplicity reigns supreme. This bedroom's back and forth between black-and-white colors, from the pillows to the throw blanket and curtains, makes it the perfect candidate for a matte black accent wall.

Play on Ornate

Antiquated doesn't equal stale. The vintage staple pieces that make up this room feel like relics, and every piece is meaningful in its own right. While the palette consists mostly of dark colors, the flash of cobalt blue on the rug is a punchy addition to black walls that makes it even more interesting.

Experiment With Cane

Design: Royal Roulotte

Wood and black are a remarkable duo, especially when you pull in other natural woven materials. This cane headboard is the perfect example: It lightens the space in a natural way, and it proves that you don't need to rely on just white accents to keep a black bedroom feeling open.

Soften With Charcoal

Design: Dan Rak Design

If you're interested in going dark but don't want to use a true black, soften things up with deep charcoal. While this almost-black hue doesn't hinder the power of bold shades, it also offers a grayscale opportunity with bedding, wall paint, and light fixtures that brighten up the dark headboard.

Contrast White Hues

Design: Mary Patton Design

The white cabinets on this bedroom vanity keep the space feeling light, but the outline of black paint adds an air of sophistication. Overlaying items like curtains, furniture, and cabinet hardware in other refined colors can work wonders for making black feel more cohesive and less jarring.
