The Moody Boutique Hotel Suite
Who says attic rooms have to be bright and white? Embodying the cozy, enclosed nature of an attic with deep, moody colors can create an incredibly luxurious, boutique-hotel-style guest suite. Paint the walls and the sloped ceilings in a rich, dark hue such as charcoal, deep plum, or midnight blue. This wraps the room in color, making the sharp angles of the ceiling recede and creating an intimate, high-end atmosphere.
To keep the room feeling luxurious rather than gloomy, incorporate metallic accents like brushed gold, brass, or polished chrome in the lighting fixtures and hardware. Choose high-end fabrics such as velvet for the headboard or an accent chair, and silk or high-thread-count cotton for the bedding. Layer the lighting with dimmable wall sconces, bedside lamps, and under-bed LED strips to create a warm, golden glow that highlights the rich textures of the room.
