The best bedroom colours

Wondering what colour to paint your bedroom? Whether you're planning a complete makeover or want to add some colour to a neutral bedroom with a feature wall, these are some of the best colours to consider:

  • Neutral bedroom ideas. Whether beige, cream or white, neutrals are among the best bedroom wall colours. They're timeless, minimalist, calming, and work well in modern and traditional homes.
  • Grey bedroom ideas. This neutral colour is perfect for bedrooms, evoking calm while giving your space a clean, modern look. Soft grey will brighten the room and is the ideal alternative to white, while darker colours like charcoal create a cosy bedroom.
  • Blue bedroom ideas. Blue is another versatile colour for bedrooms, whether you prefer sky blue, elegant teal or deep navy. This calming colour evokes nature, helping you relax before bed.
  • Green bedroom ideas. Green evokes nature and calm, making it a great choice for bedrooms. Whether you prefer dark forest green walls or sage green bedroom décor, find a colour you'll love at Dulux.
  • Pink bedroom ideas. Add warmth and colour to your space with pink. Soft pastel pink is a subtle addition to your bedroom, while earthy reddish-pink tones make a bold statement.
