Vote For House & Home’s Best Bedroom Of 2020!
Bedrooms are highly personal spaces united by an overriding function: they’re a place to rest and recharge. That means different things to different readers, so vote for our best bedroom of 2020 below! This year, we saw a lot of calming white with plenty of natural accents, but we want to know: which one would deliver the sweetest slumber for you?
Voting is now closed. Thank you to all who participated!
January: A Calming, Contemporary Bedroom
Art curator Pamela Meredith wanted her bedroom to feel like it was in nature. The walls are enveloped in white oak and a window at the back (not shown) overlooks the lush trees outside of the Victorian townhouse.
February: A Hip, Textural Bedroom
In this serene century home, the principal bedroom is located in the new addition. A grouping of woven objects mixes cool tones with natural textures and serves as a focal point over the minimalist headboard.
March: A Tonal Bedroom With Subtle Pattern
The custom upholstered bed sits underneath this dreamy principal bedroom’s vaulted ceiling. A patterned rug — paired with bone-inlay intarsia dressers — is a playful touch.
April: A Wood-Panelled Lakeside Bedroom
Designer Barbara Purdy payed homage to this renovated bungalow’s cottage soul with wide-plank oak flooring on the walls of the principal bedroom, which creates a headboard effect. She continued the natural theme with relaxed bedding in neutral tones.
May: A Curator’s Artful Bedroom
A modern mix of accents enlivens this principal bedroom, which features an edgy black leather bed frame, meaningful artwork and crisp quilted bedding.
June: A Luxe, Layered Bedroom
Piles of pattern and touchable textures lend extra coziness to this principal bedroom. “When you’re investing in wallpaper, sometimes it’s good to go neutral,” says designer Allison Willson of the gray grasscloth wallpaper. “You can redecorate the room a few times without changing the walls.”
July/August: A Breezy Cottage Bedroom
The stained oak floor, integrated headboard and gabled ceiling in this principal bedroom deliver a calming modernity. The space has near panoramic views of the outdoors, so there was no need to overdecorate.
September: A Saturated Penthouse Bedroom
Punchy Hermès wallpaper and vibrant pillows are in sync with the principal bedroom’s color scheme in this fashionable Toronto penthouse.
October: An Ethereal All-White Bedroom
This serene bedroom proves just how comforting an all-white palette can be! A custom canopy surrounding the bed creates a cloud-like retreat for drifting off to sleep.
November: A Scandi-Style Farmhouse Bedroom
For the holidays, fresh boughs are casually swagged over the headboard in this family farm’s principal bedroom. A felted coverlet has a distinct Scandi vibe and keeps toes extra toasty.
December: A Quaint Bedroom Under The Eaves
The softness of black lambswool accents contrasts beautifully with the natural tones of the flooring, blond headboard and linens in this Edwardian home‘s guest bedroom.
