Elevate your master bedroom with design ideas focusing on lighting, colour, and focal points. Go beyond simple downlights by layering ambient light with lamps and sconces to create mood, as seen in a bunker home by Dalman Architects.

Use immersive paint schemes to influence the room's feel, like the Resene Colour Award-winning interior by Arent&Pyke. Create a sense of luxury with a strong focal point, such as a custom headboard designed by Studio John Irving architects or a striking piece of art.
