1. Add print to the bathroom Refresh towels with a mix of geo prints in earthy tones and warm greys. Ceramic accessories with carved designs add subtle pattern and detail. 2. Go for black accents Metal planters and a black side table and lampshade punctuate the calm-inducing tones of terracotta, grey and inky blue to bring a little drama to this relaxed look. 3. Pile on the texture Yes, yes, yes to tassels, raw-edged fringing, pom-poms and tufted or looped textures. Hand-finished details on rugs, cushions and throws add even more cosiness to a bedroom. 4.
