Bright + Cozy Basement Guest Bedroom Install

Bright + Cozy Basement Guest Bedroom Install

Who says basements have to be dark and drab? You would never know this beautiful guest bedroom is in a basement and that was our goal with this design! I love the pops of blue in here paired with cozy neutrals and lots of different textures throughout the bedding, rug, and furniture. A metal bed is such a simple and classic piece that will never go out of style and I love how it paired with the more modern side tables, lamps, and accessories in this space. If you want to see more of this basement, check out the living area, kitchen area, and more in this post here.
