24 Dreamy Bedroom Ideas for Couples That You'll Both Adore

If your room for two is a bit on the tighter side, consider bringing in a Murphy bed to save on space. Ignore all you thought you knew about the humble fold-up bed—these handy pieces of furniture can be stylish and add so much interest to a space, like this powder blue one designed by Michael Chen.

Lovers of neutral tones in the bedroom should remember that your decor doesn't have to be plain to fit into your preferred color schemes. This gorgeously layered primary bedroom designed by Roxy Owens for House Beautiful's 2023 Whole Home is the perfect example if you and your partner want subtle colors with maximum intrigue.

This airy bedroom opens onto the sandstone patio so that the occupants can take full advantage of the southern California climate. Designer Brooke Wagner ensured the couple would love spending time in their primary bedroom with this open, easy layout. If you're in a colder climate, consider playing up coziness through loads of blankets and mood lighting.

Even without drapery, adding a canopy bed frame brings in a romantic, decorative element without making the space feel heavy. This one in a room designed by Cate Dunning creates an elegant, regal atmosphere while balancing the rest of the room's more casual look.

If you're a couple who loves being in nature, consider bringing the outdoors into your bedroom through an earthy color palette. If you don't want the theme to be too obvious, go for subtle prints with leaf motifs and subdued colors like greens, browns, and oranges as designer Mark Williams did for this bedroom. Not only is it a nature lover's escape, but it makes the room feel warm and luxurious.

No room for wall sconces or table lamps? No problem. You have a ceiling perfect for hanging pendant lights. Make sure you both have adequate lighting for reading with double pendant lights. The rattan ones in this bedroom by designer Lauren Nelson not only provide light, but the textured accent amplifies the room's warmth.

This vacation home by designer Breeze Giannasio took the idea of a dream destination and ran with it. Even if you don't have a second residence, you can still use your bedroom to transport you and your partner to a dreamy location through wallpaper murals, printed fabrics, and textured accents.

A strong display of bookshelf wealth, this bedroom by designer Summer Thornton is a reader's dream. For the couple who always has stacks on stacks of novels on their nightstands, consider adding a built-in bookcase behind the bed to store your beloved hardcovers and paperbacks.

Any couple who loves resting in a completely dark space thanks to black-out curtains can take the darkness a step further by altering their bedroom's color palette. Try a black, textured wallpaper, gray headboard, dark bench, and black nightstands like in this bedroom by designer Denise McGaha. The statement ceiling and rosy pink bedding boost the room's romance.

Interior design firm McLaren.Excell knew what they were doing when they brought the primary bedroom in this A-frame attic space to life. If your home allows for it, don't turn the top floor into a storage space or playroom. Instead, put your and your partner's bed up there for a cozy hideaway. And maybe get yourself a cute puppy while you're at it!

Waking up and getting out of bed is hard, especially when it means leaving the warmth of your favorite person by your side. Make the process easier by eliminating the alarm clock and choosing to wake up with the sunrise. Hang up light, semi-transparent curtains, like the firm MR Architecture + Decor did in this room, so you always get a free wakeup call together that isn't as jarring as your phone's alarm.

Whether both of you or one of you is against the idea of pets on the bed, adding a designated pet area can easily solve your problem. It's a wonderful way to include your furry friends without losing precious bed real estate. Not to mention, it can be a major design moment. Just take this pink patterned area by designer Mally Skok as proof.

Make sure you each have your own separate nightlight, especially if you have diverting bedtimes. We also love how this bedroom designed by Max Sinsteden features dainty, stereotypically feminine prints and fabrics with more graphic, traditionally masculine ones, like plaid sheets.

Sharing a bedroom makes it even more important to keep things tidy, which is where smart built-in storage saves the day. Layer one wall with shelving, or make one row stretch along the perimeter of the bedroom. You can use it to store books, accessories, blankets, purses, shoes, and more. Designed by Studio DIIA, the exposed shelf above this bed houses books while the upper cabinets corral linens. Naturally, the closet across from the bed stores clothing.

Carve out a sitting area so that you two can enjoy the space as more than just a place to sleep. In this mountain chalet designed by Kylee Shintaffer, the view certainly wins this lounge bonus points.

Don't have a walk-in closet big enough for the both of you? Call on wardrobes and dressers that can be workhorses and make a design statement in your room. Or, take a page from Tamsin Johnson's book and swap out existing closet doors with custom ones that feature formal molding, mirrored embellishments, and soothing paint color to elevate that daily routine.

In this casually elegant primary bedroom designed by April Tomlin, a stately fireplace anchors the space—separating the sleeping area from the lounge. That said, it also helps visually connect the two.

Add personal touches with custom monogrammed pillowcases and by channeling your favorite memories together. In this bedroom designed by Ellen Niven, the all-over floral pattern is an homage to their favorite Provençal hotels.

Don't let awkward spaces deter you from making the most of your space. Customize built-in storage to maximize function. In this small but sunny bedroom designed by Rebecca Vizard, the bed is nestled into a nook with two built-in niches and corresponding sconces for each side slash partner.

If one of you loves patterns and traditional design while your partner prefers more minimalist and contemporary looks (or the other way around), take notes from Elizabeth Georgantas-designed bedroom. A show-stopping antique bedroom punches up the personality but can always be traded for something else later on. Plus, it brings just as much fun as wallpaper would, but it's not as permanent. The white painted walls help modernize the farmhouse bones, but simple bedding nods to classic decorating.
