What the Colour of Your Bedroom Says About You

If walls could talk, they would speak volumes about your personality. We show you what colours say about you . . .

YELLOW

You consider 10 AM to be the “middle of the day,” and haven’t needed an alarm clock since kindergarten. You really don’t know why anyone wouldn’t greet the sunrise daily: You just get so much more done in the wee hours.

WHITE

If a genie gave you three wishes, one of them would be “A good night’s rest.” Your bedroom is an escape, the room you immediately beeline it to after coming home from a never-ending day. You don’t consider your walls to be bare. Instead, they create a blank space that helps you clear your mind. The tiniest hint of colour might add interest, but not too much.

NAVY BLUE

You have an opinion about everything and are not shy about letting others know it. You have a taste for strong coffee (never with cream or sugar), your politics are partisan, and you do judge people on their book collection. Though this might seem like a bold assessment, you welcome the insight – who wants to live in a grey area?

BEIGE

You’re quick to remind others that you’re not high-maintenance … you just know what you like. It took you years to find the precise shade of beige that reminds you of the latte you once had on that perfect morning during the semester abroad in Paris.

GREY

The harmonious monochromatic scheme in your bedroom came from an idea you saw on Pinterest (a.k.a. your second home) right down to the pop of color. You are open to new ideas, but want to see them in action first. It’s not that you’re timid, you just want proof that it works before committing. You’ve been mulling over that “bulletproof coffee” trend for months.

GREEN

You never forget to write a thank-you note, you’ve got a stunning collection of scarves, and you know exactly what wine to order with dinner. You’re a grown up through and through, the trusted friend everyone turns to for advice. But, you’re not boring at all. Your bedroom shows a sophisticated use of color. (And we bet you never use an accent chair as an impromptu wardrobe.)

BROWN

You scoff at the idea of getting rid of your huge collection of books in favor of digital versions. Growing up, your babysitter was the branch of the local library, where you developed a love of literature and a mind that rivals Wikipedia. Your bedroom is where you catch up on reading the latest best-selling biography (never in paperback) and has the club-like feel of the study of your dreams.

BLUE

When it came time to pick your bedroom color, the choice took all of five seconds. You just went with the color you’ve always loved: blue. You’re refreshingly honest about what you like and don’t take yourself (or your decor choices) too seriously.

PINK

If it were socially acceptable, you will entertain in your bedroom. You’re a social creature who lives for a good night out, catch-up lunches and of course, brunches. The charming candy coated walls remind you of your teenage years, where you stayed up late, glued to the phone.
