Bedroom Redo

So its been a few days since my last post. With the New Years celebrations and such, its been hard to write. I had a lot of running around to do. However, I will be going to New York next week to visit my dad, and to decorate his apartment, beginning with his bedroom. So I have been looking up very sleek and modern rooms with clean lines. I found a few inspirations for his room that will work with the limited space he has.

I then found another room that I liked that emphasized a dark rich colored backdrop for the bed instead of the bold crisp white seen in the pic above.

Both rooms are simple and offer a rich quality to them and I enjoy that both used orange accent pillows and round bolster pillows. I like the natural elements of the branches and the rectangular cutouts in each backdrop/wall. It adds ambiance. I in fact have been on a hunt for white birch branches. I have been looking in local woods to see if I can find some fallen branches. I love White birch against dark backgrounds. I want to get a few branches and mount them on the walls in the corners and have them coming out with things hanging from them. Maybe something that can catch the light to add a bit of a whimsical element to the room. Nothing too feminine of course even though my dad is a guy whose favorite color is Purple lol.
