Your bedroom can go a long way in setting the mood for romance, with elements like mood lighting, sensuous fabrics and soft colours all lending to an air of intimacy. While there are no sacrosanct romantic bedroom colours, soft and smoky shades like blue, beige, silver, champagne and misty white are usually preferred for their ability to evoke romance and mystery. If you’ve been looking to turn your bedchamber into the ultimate intimate retreat, this pick of romantic bedroom designs should serve as inspiration.

2. Urban glam
A glamorous grey and lavender palette steeps this bedroom in undeniable sensuality. The room, part of a high-rise city condominium, has been designed as a marriage of the nitty-gritty of urban living and the silken softness of romance, a style the designer calls ‘urban glam’. The urban edginess is reflected by the wall behind the bed, lined with mottled acid-etched mirrors. It serves as a dramatic contrast to the romantic elements in the room..Overhead is a crystal chandelier embellished with amethysts, topped by ceiling drapes of lavender satin. The bed isports silken fabrics and a tufted velvet headboard – what spells sensuous delight better than satin, silk and velvet? The statement glass art, ivory desk and the wool and silk rug add the final touch of luxury. The rich materials remain soothing and restful, thanks to the blend of colours.

9. Sheer bliss
This is the perfect place for a breezy romance – under a gauzy whisper-thin canopy in this summery sanctum of whitewashed walls, dark wooden accents, and lots of fresh air and natural light. The room isn’t outfitted in luxurious fabrics and opulent furniture. Instead, it is a simple marriage of gossamer fabric and ornate wood, and affords its occupants an airy, unpretentious vibe – the kind that pardons tousled sheets and tumbled covers.

10. Haven of hearts
Hearts, roses, candles and blush pink are enough to melt even the most reluctant romantic. This space is the proof, with its heart-shaped buttoned headboard, powder-pink palette, candlelight glow and gorgeous white roses. The romantic bedroom brims with soft elements, from the tufted armchair and inviting robe to the extravagant bed covers and fur garlands. A polished five-stemmed candle holder offers a halo of light just beside the bed, leaving the sleeping quarters basking in a barely-there glow.

11. Smoky paradise
Smoky, sultry and mystical, this chamber of secrets isn’t one you’ve ever read about. A glamorous leather headboard leads the decor, while a moonshine-inspired palette – lent by a glossy bed cover, soft throw pillows and a charcoal chandelier – offers moody reflections that hold back more than they reveal.
