Crows Point, Hingham MA

Duxborough Designs

The attic in this Victorian seaside house was massively renovated to make a guest room that takes full advantage of all the roof lines and dormers. The fir matchboard ceilings and hickory floors make this space old and new at the same time. In other words, timeless!

Living Spaces

Dressed in dark mahogany, the solid spruce stunner boasts a planked, sleigh-shaped headboard and thick footboard with two drawers for stashing extra sheets and blankets.

1. Choose a Color Palette

Most colors work in traditional bedrooms, so pick out a palette that will make you feel most relaxed and at home. If you want to create a light and airy space, muted shades of blue, yellow, green or blush pink look gorgeous against crisp white wood. For a stately look, go with deep shades of red, blue or green and wood in rich, natural stains. Incorporate velvet, linen and soft fabrics throughout your bedroom.

2. Pick Out Unique Furniture

Don’t shy away from mixing and matching furniture pieces in various styles or finishes. A collected look will only enhance the traditional charm and elegance of your bedroom. If you’re picking out a bed frame, upholstered, wooden and four poster frames would all work well. If you’ve got the space, consider adding in luxurious touches like a tufted bench at the foot of the bed, or a stately armchair in the corner.

3. Make It Your Own with Decorative Touches

Traditional bedrooms aren’t finished without balanced decor pieces that give the space character and ambiance. You could opt for a French toile wallpaper, an ornate wall mirror or vintage prints of flowers. Crown molding or wainscoting can really give your bedroom a finished look, as can floor-length curtains or a chandelier.
