Steal This Look: A Quiet, Intentionally Simple Summer Bedroom (Budget Sources Included)
In the summer bedroom, less is more. Take it from this simple setup, as seen in Reighton Road in London: A Calm, Contemporary Revival of a Victorian Apartment. Here, we uncover matching (and similar) sources:
Above: The intentionally simple London bedroom of property developer Pete Monaghan and film and television producer Cherish Perez de Tagle. “Monaghan specializes in taking tired old houses—the unloved and the unlovely—and giving them a bold contemporary refresh, while celebrating every precious piece of their original character that remains,” Alexa writes in Reighton Road in London: A Calm, Contemporary Revival of a Victorian Apartment. “His own East London home is very much a case in point.” Photograph via The Modern House.Paint
Above: Farrow & Ball’s Slipper Satin paint color is used elsewhere in the project and would make for a warm but muted backdrop in the bedroom, too.Furniture
Above: The couple’s pared-back nightstands were sourced from a saw mill, “inspired by the work of interior designer Rose Uniacke,” Alexa writes. Similar solid timber side tables can be found from a variety of sources; we like the well-priced Modern Wood Side Tables, from $275 each from Bertu Home on Etsy.
Above: A similar low-slung bed: A full/queen Floyd Bed sans headboard starts at $956.Lighting
Above: The twin bedside lamps are original 1970s Olympe lamps are by Harvey Guzzini for ED. Vintage versions can still be found, like this Harvey Guzzini Olympe Lamp, $747 from Shop Dessein Parke. For a less pricey lookalike, consider the Roland Table Lamp in Cream from Rejuvenation.
Above: A similar paper shade is the House Doctor Bidar Lamp Shade, currently on sale for $39 from Nordic Nest.Soft Goods
Above: Linen sheets, budget edition: Quince’s European Linen Fitted Sheet Set in White is $119.90 for the queen size. Pair with the European Linen Duvet Cover in White, $159.90.
Above: The Elliott Coverlet in Silver is a good lookalike to the bedspread, and just enough coverage for cool nights. It’s $225 for the queen size from Matouk.
Above: The Cotton Herringbone Throw in Oyster is $216 from Evangeline Linens.Categories
