    The homeowners purchased the bedding shown in this photo, and unfortunately I do not have any information about where they found the linens. However, as smdw mentioned and other Houzzers have suggested, there may be something similar available through Restoration Hardware. Happy Shopping!

    The cabinetry was custom made by a cabinet shop, which we then installed.

    These shelving units are actually custom cabinets with a factory finish. They call the color of this paint "Stony Bridge."

    What you see on the side panels of the book cases, on either side of the bed, are light switches for dedicated reading lights. There is one overhead light for each side of the bed.

    Hi Norma, It looks like you may have some questions about navigating Houzz, rather than questions about this photo in particular. If that's the case, we recommend typing "window treatments" into the search box and scroll down to the option that says "photos." Hopefully this is the information you're seeking. If there is a specific question I can answer for you about this photo, please don't hesitate to reply with some additional detail for your question. Best of luck to you in your searches!

    Finding the right color combinations can be a challenge, and ultimately it comes down to personal preference. An interior designer can be an invaluable resource in situations like this, helping you decide which shades would complement the colors you already have to work with. If you're looking for a little more of a DIY route, you may find the Benjamin Moore Color Gallery to be useful. Find a color that closely matches your floor and when you click on the shade, it recommends complementary colors. Best of luck finding a sofa that's right for your room!

What Houzz contributors are saying:

radiodesigner
Karen Mills (Interiors by Design, Inc.) added this to 8 Rooms With Staying PowerJan 16, 2017

7. Built-in personality. This inviting bedroom has staying power thanks not only to architectural details like the built-in shelves, which give rooms a classic feel, but also thanks to the design choices. Solid bedding in neutral grays and white, along with a bed frame and benches in warm cream, creates a more enduring color scheme. Also, the accessories decorating the shelves are a mix of personal mementos, books and decorative items. Using this blend helps the room avoid looking decorated just to follow a trend.
