22 Beautiful Traditional Bedroom Ideas That Aren’t Stuffy

Bring in traditional style to your bedroom space for a timeless and classic look, which will evoke a sense of elegance and history, Kristina Phillips, the founder of Kristina Phillips Interior Design, says.

While today’s traditional spaces are not as ornate as those of the past, they still often feature wooden furnishings, symmetrical layouts, classic patterns and prints, and pieces such as canopy or four poster beds. So that your room looks timeless, not dated, infuse it with a few elements of traditional style while also opting for more contemporary pieces, designers suggest.

Zandy Gammons, the founder of Miretta Interiors, will use soft colors to offset darker antique furniture in a traditional bedroom. She emphasizes the importance of designing a space so that it looks well-curated

“The final space should feel as if it was collected over time instead of purchased all at once,” Gammons says.

Last but not least, interior designers urge you to keep modern technology like large television sets out of your traditional bedroom if possible.

“My first order of business would be to prioritize disconnection from the rest of the world and instead focus on the bedroom as a retreat from the demands of life,” Rachel Cannon, the founder of Rachel Cannon Limited Interiors, says.
