A bedroom in white with wood, I love it!

For years we have had a bedroom of nothing. Always too short of space and a mess. With a built-in wardrobe that was handy in itself, but not enough space to make it cozy. It's different in our new house and I'm completely in love with our bedroom in white and wood. I have therefore gathered the necessary white bedroom inspiration for you. From our own bedroom and that of others. Enjoy!

Why a white-bedroom with wood-elements?

I like all kinds of different styles like a country style , but it also makes me happy industrially. And actually the combination of them, so rural industrial my biggest favorite. An important element of industrial -which people often think is dark- is light for me. Light spaces provide an open mind and a pleasant feeling. That is why I opted for our bedroom in white combined with wood. This is light and gives a wonderfully relaxed and fresh feeling when I wake up.

Question: The only thing I'm still unsure about are the windows. They still have to be painted and we would actually paint all the window frames black, but I'm now doubting whether it would be better to make these white. What do you think? The pleated blinds that will be hanging there are also white.

Major advantages of a white-bedroom

  1. A white bedroom radiates peace and serenity
  2. You can easily combine white with a few other light shades
  3. Mosquitoes are very easy to find!
  4. A bedroom in white seems bigger
  5. White and white can be different from each other, but still go well together

1. A white bedroom radiates tranquility

That white radiates tranquility is a fact. Due to the serene hue, such a space gives you the feeling that you don't need anything. The amount of light also ensures that you get space in your head.

2. Combining white with other light tones in a bedroom

Don't you like too much white? Then look for other light pastel shades to combine with. Or combine with all light pastel shades, that's also possible. As long as the shades you combine in your white bedroom are real pastel shades, you will retain the feeling of space and freshness. You can also combine white with wood and natural tones, which has the same effect.

For example, in our bedroom we opted for a nice round rug with jute and white as you can see above. This rug comes from Atmosphere.nl, where I have seen a lot more beautiful things. Do you recognize that? That you come across those shops online that you would like to buy completely empty? Anyway, for now I am very happy with this rug because it fits perfectly with the idea that I have of my dream bedroom!

The oak wood beam bed by the way comes from Gussta, it is a beautiful 'floating' bed where the frame is set further back and it therefore seems as if this bed is not on legs. Also very happy with it! Nice combination, isn't it?

3. Looking for mosquitoes? No problem!

A big advantage of a white bedroom is that you can easily find the mosquitoes at night when you have to hunt for mosquitoes. Even in a large bedroom it is not a problem, as long as it is light in color, the mosquitoes will immediately catch your eye.

4. Bedroom looks bigger

If you use enough white in your bedroom, the bedroom will automatically appear a lot bigger than if you work with dark tones. So it's a good idea to optically enlarge a small bedroom by using the light color.

But it can also be too white, even in a bedroom. Using too much white can make outlines of objects disappear against the background and that can feel kind of confusing. However, if you combine the white bedroom with wood, that will not happen quickly.

5. White and white combines fantastic

There are many colors of white. The great thing about white is that all those colors combine well with each other. From creamy white to cream and from bright white to sleek white, it all fits together. By using different shades of white together in your bedroom, you also immediately ensure that you create more depth in the room. So hoppa, all those shades in the form of bedding and plaids on your mattress and you're done!

As you can see, there are plenty of reasons to choose a bedroom in light tones. Preferably white with other natural shades. What color do you have in the bedroom?
