"Q: How do I create a relaxing master bedroom retreat, but still incorporate bold colors? \u2014Brenda L. A: Thanks for such a great question! I love the phrase, &amp;quot;relaxing retreat.&amp;quot; Those two words are full of so much promise \u2014 but they can also mean many different things to people. Let&amp;#039;s work through some basic advice and see if we can improve things! One question that we always ask when working with clients is how a particular room will be used. For example, breakfast rooms might have a brighter hue, while bedrooms might skew a little on the darker side \u2014 it all depends with the time of day that a room is used. Now, if your desire is to use a bolder palette throughout the rest of your house, you could easily play with the color a bit before bringing it into the bedroom. I might dial down a bright fire engine red to a slightly deeper burgundy or oxblood before working it into the bedroom scheme. I&amp;#039;d also like to point out that you have other opportunities to make a space bold instead of just using paint. What about a boldly-patterned upholstered headboard? You can add some drama and impact, without having to put so much weight on just a paint color. As with any space, it&amp;#039;s often the details that make it amazing.  Look at this bold bedroom from designer Lindsey Coral Harper \u2014 it&amp;#039;s all about the details! The charming monogrammed bed linens, bright blue trim on the red upholstered bench, and the custom lampshades and window treatments give the room a proper dash of drama and style.
