Bedroom Decorating Ideas:
From Arty to Exotic

Exotica Inspires a Great-Escape Bedroom

Written and produced by Candace Ord Manroe

As the most personal space in the home, it’s only natural that bedrooms are designed as the stuff of dreams. The most interesting bedrooms express the passions of the homeowners, from art to travel. A whiff of exotica emanates from this Asian-inspired master bedroom in a Hamptons home, reflecting both the owner’s fascination with the Far East and and her youthful edginess. As the largest furnishing and a natural focal point, the lacquered decoupage-and-bamboo stair-step shaped bed boldly declares the exotic theme. The bedside table is a Chinese antique.
