Best Colours for Staging Bedrooms

February 04, 2013 (posted by Jennifer Campbell, Home Staging Calgary)
Ever wonder why realtors save the showing of bedrooms, particularly the master bedroom, until the end of a home tour? The bedroom is the final pit-stop of our day, the inner sanctuary of the home and one of the most emotionally-resonant rooms of the house. If a prospective buyer enters the master bedroom, and it doesn’t ‘feel’ right, that can be a deal-breaker. That’s why home staging is critical to set the right tone in bedrooms.
 
So what are the best colours for staging master bedrooms? First, it’s key to understand who the ideal buyer for the property is, then it’s time to zero in on a particular color that will make the bedroom feel like a perfect fit.

After: The hinds of purple in the bedding, artwork and throw blanket makes this master bedroom feel luxurious and romantic.

Purple For Romance
Cue the boom-chagga-lagga music. Purple bedrooms spell romance. This color combines blue and red in a merging of fire and stability. Long established as the royal color, it also exudes extravagance. We’re not suggesting that the walls and ceiling be covered in purple. This colour is so bold that a touch here and there is all you need: some pillows, a throw, or for the more daring, purple lampshades.

After: The combinations of white and green make this bedroom feel fresh and inviting.

Green For Freshness
For a fresh feeling, use nature’s color of growth. The paler hues of green, such as sage, mint, or moss will offer a subtle hint of freshness and are good for creating a sense of harmony. These are particularly good for master bedrooms of family homes.

After: The blues in the artwork and throw cushion create a sense of tranquiliy and calmness. Blue is also associated with trust and loyalty – the perfect colour for a master bedroom.

Blue For Calm
A calming colour that is reported to slow human metabolism, blue can set a tranquil tone in the bedroom. The paler the shade of blue the more tranquil the feeling that is conveyed.
