Transform your master bedroom with key design elements. A refined lighting plan is crucial for creating mood, as shown in a Dalman Architects project. Go beyond downlights by adding lamps and sconces.

Embrace colour immersively, like the award-winning Arent&Pyke interior which used a soft Resene palette for a glowing effect.

Create a luxurious focal point with a large, fabric headboard, as designed by Studio John Irving, or with striking artwork, adding texture with throws and rugs.
