Wood can add a feeling of warmth to your space. If the natural material is not your style, introduce it through small elements such as accessories or detaling on larger pieces of furniture
ADD COMFORT UNDER FOOT Want a really cosy finish? As well as decorative ideas, make sure your flooring is a material that you really want to step onto when you start the day. Go for a luxuriously deep pile carpet or rug, or a design that feels super-soft to the touch. If you prefer the look of laminate, think about underfloor heating to create additional comfort, or add layered rugs to wood flooring – make sure a rug is bigger than the bed to anchor it.
Here, the carpet is in a similar shade to the walls, which helps both surfaces blend into the background to keep focus on the bed. Seymour Saxony carpet in Almond, £24.99 per sq m, Carpetright.
