We can already feel your skepticism. But, you ask, won’t using too much wood make my bedroom look rustic? Not unless that’s the style you want! Indeed, it’s possible to use wooden details and materials to create a luxurious ambiance. This gorgeous project by Delightfull and Covet House manages to do just that. Notice how the wood wall brings a hint of nature to an otherwise very modern, very sophisticated room. Then there’s a hint of grey, but the bed linens and pillows follow earth tones once again.
Tip 2: Pick Soft Green Details

Sure, brown is definitely the color that comes to mind when you think of earth tones. But it doesn’t have to be the only color! On the contrary, you can invoke the warm energy of the earth by adding a few green or even dark red touches to your room. In fact, that’s just what this Brabbu bedroom for Maison et Objet 2020 does. Another detail we like is the use of animal patterns in the art pieces. What a creative way to bring nature into the room!
Tip 3: You Can Use Florals, But Be Discrete

Here we have a detail of another gorgeous design by Brabbu. Back at it again with the amazing earth-toned bedrooms, aren’t they? Indeed, just like last time, they bet on nature-inspired patterns. Yet, notice how these florals are nothing like the girly, baroque things we often see on brighter designs. This room is all about dark, muted greens, honey-tones, and browns. Indeed, these are not the flowers of spring, but those of the harvest. It’s the earth’s nourishing energy in a single sleeping space.
Tip 4: Let it be Soothing to The Eyes

The whole point of rooms with this sort of palette is to feel like you’re connected to and soothed by the earth. In fact, just notice the muted tones and lighting in this gorgeous design featuring Luxxu. While there’s nothing cheap or boring about this room, there’s definitely an emphasis on neutrality and understatement.
Tip 5: Or…Add Luxury Accessories!

Sure, earth-toned rooms are all about coziness and understatement. But what did following the rules ever get you? If there is one thing we know about interior design, it’s that no rule is absolute. This project featuring Luxxu basically proves that. Rather than detracting from the charming nature of the room, the use of the luxury chandeliers actually makes this project even more appealing. It’s an earth tone room idea with a luxury twist, and no less gorgeous because of it.
