Creative Ways to Decorate a Contemporary Bedroom in Indigo, Black and Gold

Indigo is a beautiful deep shade of natural blue, and it is one of the most popular accent hues. When decorating a contemporary bedroom in this stunning hue, it can be beautifully highlighted with black and gold. It is a striking combination, and although it is profound, it is not too dramatic for a relaxed atmosphere. A bedroom in indigo, black and gold can be absolutely gorgeous. It is one of my top choices when decorating a contemporary bedroom, and it can be yours too. I have used the color trio on several occasions, and my clients and I have never been displeased with the outcome.

Try a Dramatic Painting Technique to Decorate Bedroom Walls

One of the most impressive contemporary design jobs I had the pleasure to complete included a dramatic painting technique on a single bedroom wall. I planned to decorate the contemporary bedroom in indigo, black and gold, and I began with the walls. I painted the ceiling and walls a crisp shade of white, but I added an indigo stripe. I planned on centering the bed on a long wall, and I painted the twelve-inch wide stripe a few feet to the right of the head of the bed. It extended from the floor to the ceiling, but I was far from finished. I planned to decorate the bedroom with eye catching comfortable bedding, a gorgeous vase and a work of contemporary wall art.

Decorate with a Contemporary Folding Screen Headboard

The head of the king size bed was attached, but it was unimpressive, and thankfully it was removable. I took it off and used a folding screen with a contemporary design in place of an attached headboard. It was a nighttime cityscape with a deep indigo sky. The never ending sky was dotted with gold stars and high rise buildings with randomly lit glowing gold windows. The contemporary work of folding art was ideal since it included indigo, black and gold. It looked far better than the plain painted wooden headboard. Not only did it serve as a finishing piece for the bed, but it was also a very impressive work of contemporary art.

Add a Solid Indigo Comforter with Gold and Black Bedding Accessories

Since the headboard of the bed was embellished with graphics I decided to decorate the bed with a solid indigo comforter. My client and I selected a high quality comforter that would easily tuck beneath the mattress of the black platform bed. I wanted to bring out the gold in the headboard, and I did it with a pair of beautiful satiny gold throw pillows. I also choose a pair of fuzzy black throw pillows to decorate the head of the bed. The bed became the focal point of the bedroom, but I had another plan.

Decorate a Side Table or Dresser with a Beautiful Glass Indigo Vase

My client had a gorgeous contemporary indigo glass vase. It was the inspiration for the color and design of the bedroom. I placed the blue glass vase on the existing side table next to the bed. The color of the glass was very close to the color of the stripe on the wall. The vase looked very striking against the white background. It was the perfect piece of tabletop decor in her indigo, black and gold contemporary bedroom.

I had my client choose a large work of contemporary wall art for the other side of the bedroom. She selected a beautiful painting of open blue water. It could have been the body of water in the city harbor, and it coordinated beautifully with the bedroom design. It was embellished with various shades of blue including the indigo hue, and it looked outstanding. It was the signature of the contemporary bedroom, and it was one of my favorite designs.
