Looking for a warm color that will make your bedroom feel cozier? Orange can be a great alternative worth trying. It’s not just a color reserved for eclectic designs because it can look amazing in any kind of modern or traditional bedroom. Orange accents and elements can bring a solid dose of excitement to your bedroom decor style. It can be a refreshing color pick if you favor a bolder aesthetic that stands out compared to typical somber, dark-toned bedroom color schemes.




Whereas traditional bedroom styles can feel a bit dull at times, an orange look is sure to enhance the space with a new dimension of cozy warmth and energetic brightness. That being said, an orange bedroom makeover is a little harder to pull off compared to other colors. You can add a touch of orange to the bedroom in many ways. Let’s take a look at the best ideas that will inspire you to incorporate orange tones properly in the bedroom.

It’s safe to say that not everyone feels ready to commit to a bold orange bedroom design. A subtle touch of the color could be more suitable in those cases. Keep the space neutral and only include a simple orange element such as a throw pillow or chair. There’s no need to go all out on the brilliance of orange when just a small accent is enough to elevate the coziness of the space. Even smaller touches of orange work well to warm up neutral color palettes focused mainly on colder shades such as gray.



4. Retro Vibe

Orange is a great color option for bedrooms featuring retro design inclinations. Brass hardware can show off an attractive visual appeal with rusty-toned orange shades. The metallic vibe of these nightstands adds a glamorous style to the bedroom. Other elements like the mustard-yellow throw pillows and colorful orange-pink duvet complete the retro 80s feel of this room. The orange wall provides an ideal exciting backdrop for all the playful patterns, textures, and color combinations.



5. Orange Wall Art

A minimalist gray bedroom can look very modern and elegant. However, it can also appear a little dull unless you provide some visual interest through well-chosen decor pieces. That’s where a striking art piece comes into play as it can make the plain empty wall in the bedroom feel livelier. Use an orange artwork, preferably in an abstract style, to make any dull modern space come to life. The best part is that you can always switch the art piece with a different one if you get tired of the orange pop of color.



6. Bohemian Style

Choosing orange tones that aren’t excessively bright seems like a smart design choice to maintain visual balance in this boho-inspired space.



7. Orange Ceiling

Although painting the walls in the bedroom in a warm shade of orange can bring a lot of drama to the space, you can take the idea to the next level by extending the coating to the ceiling. This results in a spectacular visual effect as it appears that the entire room is enveloped in the vibrant beauty of orange. Although the designer of this bedroom could’ve painted the entire ceiling orange, it looks like a big portion in the middle was left untouched by the coating. That contrasting white area prevents the orange look from overpowering the bedroom.



8. Orange Headboard

If you’re not sure how to integrate a nice orange vibe into the bedroom, you can try a stylish headboard. Any bed that features an elegant orange headboard will easily stand out in the room. It’s a refreshing style to consider if your bedroom is designed with modern decor elements. If you prefer a white and black color scheme, there’s a risk of the orange headboard attracting too much attention. For a properly balanced look, it’s best to include another unexpected element such as the dark brown hardwood ceiling.



9. Geometric Appeal
