1. Slats and moldings
Moldings go well with different wall finishes: paint, wallpaper, and decorative plaster. In a modern style, they can be replaced with wooden slats. So, in the example in the photo, they are placed behind the headboard at different distances from each other and duplicate the shade of the curtains in color. Thanks to this, an interesting rhythmic pattern is obtained, which seems to continue the textile design. This decor option looks neutral and at the same time makes the space more voluminous. Also, moldings and slats are great zoning tool. They will emphasize the bed and visually distinguish it from the rest of the space.
2. Bright poster or picture
A traditional and timeless way to decorate the wall behind the bed is a poster or a picture. It can be a neutral version in pastel colors with an inscription, or, conversely, a contrasting pattern that will become the main accent in the room. For example, the interior of this bedroom is decorated in soothing colors with local bright splashes in textiles and decor. The colorful portrait goes well with the decorative pillows on the bed. Due to the fact that the rest of the space looks very calm, this decor does not overload the interior and does not interfere with relaxation. An interesting technique is not to hang a picture on the wall, but to put it on the back of the bed.
3. LED sign
A bright and unusual trick for the bedroom is to hang a neon sign behind the bed, adding industrial touches to the interior. This is not the most typical solution for a bedroom, but that is why it looks interesting. If the overall gamma is neutral and you don’t want to compromise its integrity, choose a backlight of a calm color and not too complex a picture or text. By the way, this decor can be an alternative to bedside lamps or sconces. It can be used when soft, intimate lighting is required, such as for reading or relaxing.
4. Decorative panel
A more interesting alternative to a poster or a picture would be a decorative panel at the head of the bed. At the same time, its shape and size can be very different – depending on the style of the interior and the size of the room. So, in a small bedroom, it is better to hang something small and low-contrast in order to maintain the overall visual proportions of the room. If the room is spacious, you can afford a larger and brighter decor. The main thing is that it looks harmonious against the background of other objects and the overall color scheme.
5. Contrast paint
You can use a minimum of decor or abandon it altogether, and paint the wall behind the headboard in a rich color. In this case, you determine the degree of brightness yourself. If you want to get a fairly calm and relaxed interior, choose a neutral base and slightly more active paint for the accent wall. And if your goal is a dynamic color space, you can experiment with a complex palette. However, remember that too bright design in a small room can be very tiring, so in any case, dilute the saturated shades.
6. Accent wallpaper
You can beautifully decorate the space behind the head of the bed with the help of accent wallpaper. Feel free to choose a contrasting shade or an active print (or both). Finishing combinations can be very different. Among the most popular are a combination of blue and beige, a bright ornament in combination with plain walls, and a geometric pattern next to a floral one. So that accent wallpapers do not look foreign in the interior, and emphasize their color or style with textiles and decor.
