Midcentury Modern Bedroom Refresh with All Modern
* This post was sponsored by AllModern, and may contain affiliate links. As always, all opinions are my own
We recently refreshed a favorite MidCentury bedroom project of ours. A style popularized in the 1940s and 60s, the Mid-Century Modern design movement was born out of the romantic idea that “good design could change lives.” It was a style that was all about functionality, accessibility, and modern simplicity. It's a look that is great for smaller more modern aesthetic spaces. It's a clean simple style that incorporates different textures paired with more modern unexpected elements.
We added these modern dome shaped brass table lamps to the side tables for the fun element of the space. It keeps the space looking sleek and creates the perfect amount of light for reading in bed.
I have this thing for black graphic pillows. They're just really good at making a sharp impression on a space. I wanted to keep the bed nice and simple with white bedding and add a statement pillow. These abstract pillow covers are such a great price for a designer look.
I love how this little Midcentury Modern Bedroom refresh turned out and how switching out just a couple accessories can make a space feel like a new room again.

Updating a MidCentury Bedroom
One of the many aspects that I enjoy as part of my job is the ability to work with clients who all have different design aesthetics. It allows me to venture into different design styles that I appreciate and can have fun with and one of those is midcentury design. I love the simplicity of it but yet the unexpected elements that can be added to the space to make it just simply put.....cool! There is so much drama that can be made in a space without a lot of stuff. Unique wallpaper, textured walls, organic lines are just a few things that can make midcentury design beautiful. I worked with AllModern to put together a midcentury room update and pulled together inspiration photos similar to the moody bedroom we are working with.

BEDSIDE BEDROOM REFRESH WITH ALL MODERN
This post is sponsored by AllModern, but all text, images, and opinions are all my own. Thank you for supporting the brands that keep The Style Nest running!
I'm excited to share with you our little bedside refresh in our master bedroom. It was so much fun working with AllModern on this space. Small changes can go a long way! Our bedroom is very limited on space. So when choosing a bedside table and new lighting, I wanted to make the most out of the space. I had 2 requirements for our little bedside heros, one was drawers in the bedside tables for all the things you want to keep hidden away like chargers and eye masks and two were wall sconces so that we could maximize the space on top of the tables for water and whatever book or pile of magazines we may be reading.
I chose these dimmable swing arm sconces because I love the modern element they bring to the space. My husband and I also have different bedtimes and I like to read at night to help me fall asleep and he can't sleep when my light is on. The dimming feature will come in handy on these. These are hardwired but if that is not an option for you, you can create a similar look with a plug in as well and AllModern has many great options, like these which I also love.
Nightstands and lighting can make or break a bedroom. This is an area you can bring in some fun elements or textures, different wood tones to warm up the space or a cool light fixture to elevate the space. Having matchy matchy sets in a bedroom make it feel like you walked in the showroom and said "I'll take that set". I like mixing and matching pieces to make it feel more unique. Pairing wood bedside tables with painted dressers or metal bedside tables with wood dressers is a great way to create a unique bedroom retreat and don't forget the ambient lighting.

INSPIRATION FOR A BEDROOM BEDSIDE UPDATE
I've had a wood wallpaper saved for our master for a long time, it just brings in a fun textured element to the space and warms up the room. Paired with a black contrasting nightstand, a fun modern wall sconce and a light upholstered bed. I'm all about light upholstered beds right now.

Design: Mindy Gayer Design

Can we say dream bedroom? All of my favorite colors all in one space. I love all the different textured elements used in this bedroom as well. This has been saved as a favorite master bedroom for years. Notice the textured rope sconce hanging from the wall? This is a great use of space and designed well because this isn't a huge master bedroom but there are big statement pieces in this room.
