Choosing a bedroom color scheme can be a delicate matter. You want the colors to be calming enough to facilitate sleep, but not boring. You want it to be colorful enough to look intentionally designed, but not so colorful that it disrupts relaxation. Hilary Swank's bedroom perfectly strikes this balance.
The actress's bedroom color idea is a lesson in decorating with warm neutrals. Her architect and designer, Mark Zeff, outfitted her walls with cozy wood, the perfect contrast against her low, gray headboard. Gray and white bedding brings a calming focal point to the center of the room, brightened by an ice blue throw blanket draped casually at the end of the bed. A red Persian rug infuses the room with luxury, play, and warmth. A black and white gallery wall of Swank's dogs on the right of the bed draws the eye up and connects the upper dark tones of the room with the lower lighter tones.
