Who doesn\u2019t long for a bedroom that acts like a lullaby? If you\u2019re sleep-challenged\u2014isn\u2019t everyone these days?\u2014consider creating your own cloud chamber. Fans of all-white bedrooms use words like \u201ctranquil,\u201d \u201cblank slate,\u201d \u201cno distractions,\u201d and \u201cZen\u201d to describe the appeal. There\u2019s also an automatic tidy look that comes with opting for all white: a single color creates cohesion and, like a T-shirt, can stylistically go in any direction.<\/p>\n

Too much etherealness, however, can be chilly and soporific (not necessarily in a good way). The key to a successful all-white approach is to introduce texture, slip in subtle patterns or varying shades of pale, and to accessorize with books, art, plants\u2014or simply a wonderful view. Here are 27 standouts that demonstrate the great versatility of all white.<\/p>\n

Note the bed\u2019s built-in drawers, which enable them to do without bedside tables. They don\u2019t have shades either: the couple like to wake up at sunrise. <\/p>\n

Above: Interior designer Claudia Zinzan, owner of one of our favorite browsing spots, Father Rabbit in Auckland, New Zealand, is a master of the all-white bedroom. Shown here in Zinzan\u2019s own house, a Father Rabbit Linen Duvet Cover, $249 NZD ($197 USD), and Father Rabbit Cotton Nautical Stripe Pillowcases, $39.90 NZD ($31.57 USD), on a Father Rabbit Steel Bed Base, $2,210 NZD ($1,749 USD). Her advice is to take stock of your shades of white and make sure they \u201cmarry up\u201d by holding them against each other: \u201cYou may not realize it, but your white bed linen could be a very warm white and your white joinery might be a very blue white.\u201d Her paint of choice for bedrooms is pure white pigment (titanium dioxide), \u201cthe base they use for mixing all whites: it\u2019s a fresh, glowing white that works with everything.\u201d <\/p>\n
