This modern-style shared bedroom achieves the seemingly impossible – room for two personalities to express themselves, as well as being a work, rest and hang-out space full of warm, upbeat vibes. Our tip? Go for a neutral base and choose two groups of complementary colors, so everything works together. Harmony guaranteed!
Set the scene for double-sided style
One palette embraces the simplicity of earthy neutrals, the other lets candy colors like lilac, pink and yellow take over. What makes it work are the light wood floor and the soft colors of the rug – they lay down a low-key backdrop that ties everything together, so each personality can make their mark.

Drop-off zone

Closed storage for a clutter-free look
Shared rooms that go double on everything can easily feel overwhelming, so closed storage can help to find visual balance – and create a more clutter-free look. That’s why the simple, smooth finish of this wardrobe works. The white doors also reflect a lot of light, injecting a spacious feel into the room.

Chill out in soft color
Make room for togetherness with flexible furniture in neutral tones or colors from both palettes in the room – so they can be moved around the space without upsetting the aesthetic balance. Finish the look with cushions and throws in vibrant accents that add depth, warmth, and an intimate feel to the space.
