Serene & Peaceful Guest Room

Inspiration

Two San Jose, CA homeowners in a historic Spanish bungalow wanted to redecorate their guest bedroom. It had previously been used as a rental space but they wanted to use it as a guest space for friends and family to visit. They wanted their guests to feel relaxed in a serene space and they also wanted the room to feel contemporary, yet respectful and complementary of the historic Spanish style home.


Existing Bedroom Conditions

The bedroom was a blank space with four white walls and some existing window treatments such as 2-inch blinds in the windows and vertical blinds over the sliding door.

The existing window treatments were kept to save cost. The room was painted and new shelving, furniture, art, lighting, and accessories were placed in the room.





The warm shade of purple adds to the resting and relaxing nature of the room while also complementing the warm wall colors found elsewhere in the historic home. The black and white monochromatic furniture, art, and accessories gives the room a modern, yet, relaxing feel. Pops of lime and green colors add excitement to the room.
