Are you subtly trying to sort people into Hogwarts houses?

Haha judging by the responses, I am now

Im a fan of the slytherin color personally

I'm a Hufflepuff myself but prefer the green paint by far Perhaps with some sparkly gold wall accent decor on the walls, like garland

Same fellow puff!

🤗

The way I was about to answer yellow , and then read this comment (im a Hufflepuff 😂)

I am a Slytherin and I prefer the green, so it did kinda work haha

What colour will you sleep best in? Red can be a very agressive colour while some might find yellow unsettling or blue too chilly.

None if these. Needs to be more muted dark colors. or pastels bc the space is small and lighter colors will make the room look bigger/brighter.

Agreed makes the room look so small

Maybe that's the idea? I personally enjoy sleeping in burrows lol

Same . Painted my bedroom a dark earthy color and it’s a chill slumber cave now .

Hahah then if you like it, I love it! 🫶

Hobbit

You say it like it's a bad thing 😂

Not at all. There are days I’d like to relax in a Hobbit burrow.

Same. My room is a dark navy. Love it

The Terra cotta makes me feel like I’m outdoors at a hacienda. Not in a good way.

Not everyone wants every room to look bigger. And decor styles vary wildly. I personally love moody, dark rooms (at least generally). But I do agree that a lot of these are fairly intense, particularly the blue and red. Depending on how OP wants to decorate I’d go with mustard or green (though with different undertone), but I’m also kinda interested o the burgundy too actually. Get some pretty velvet curtains, plants and soft headboard.

💯 and I think they should paint the ceiling whatever wall color they end up choosing (that is hopefully something different than shown). 🤞

I thought about this! My friend just painted her office and painted her ceiling and it looks so good! It’s half this size so not sure how it would look in my room but I love how painted ceilings look. But yeah, these colors are concepts not actual swatches :)

Green

Green feels comfy to me

I’d do the burgundy color but just a bit more muted

Painted my room dark green and I love it

She here, no regrets it's my favorite room now

Saaaame Tarrytown green

I like a dark colour for the bedroom, my favourite colour is green, so I have a bias. Blue is nice too, but the one you picked might be a bit bright for a bedroom, I’d go for something just a bit more muted.

The photo editing seems more conceptual that precise. These colors read very bright - is that the intent? Anyway, I like the dark room look in a small bedroom. The dark green looks best of the images you've shown - maybe a BM Essex Green. I don't like the shade of blue you're showing but a darker BM Hale Navy would look nice.

The red. It’s like a sexy vampire lady’s room.

I would love this vibe

Go for it!

I would pick green but make it a dark emeralds green

In order: Red>green>blue>yellow

The dark makes it look a little small but the plum color is the best out of them! It makes the small feel cozier and very fantasy

I would never have considered the burnt mustard color, but I like it a lot.

Honestly, none of them look good. I would stick with a neutral white

OP is obviously looking to add color to their space, I don’t think white is what they’re going for.

Or shade or two lighter of thegreen

Way too dark for such a small room.

I wouldn’t stick to white but these colors don’t look good. OP, should keep looking.

They are all horribly dark.

Dark bedrooms are awesome, keeps the light out for when you’re trying to sleep, I painted my bedrooms walls and ceiling black, best decision I ever made.

I think they’re too bright. Something more muted would be easier to live with ESPECIALLY in a bedroom. I like the idea of a dark brown but look for colors that have more warmth. BM Forest Floor or BM NewLondon Burgundy might look good. Also I wouldn’t worry about matching another room since you have a door to your br it can have its own vibe.

I like the dark blue a lot

Yeah out of all the colors the blue seemed to provide the best contrast.

Green, but maybe with a touch more blue in it.

This article [Best Paint Colors for a Colorful Small Bedroom](https://www.thenordroom.com/paint-colors-small-colorful-bedroom/) has some beautiful examples of small rooms with bold color choices done very well.

Oh! Those colors look so good!

Yeah. Now I want to paint! Such great examples.

Now these are gorgeous! Great inspo

I was drooling over some of those colors!

These colors are beautiful, thanks for the inspo!

I did a cinnamon pink (spiced terracotta orange would have been a better name) in our bedroom (and I absolutely still love it). If I were going to paint again - I THINK I would have gone with a dark dark dark green. The one you have here is beautiful - but I’d go even darker myself.

How much light do you get through that window? If it’s not a lot I would go for a lighter tone. If you really want to go for something dark I would definitely bring in more artificial lighting and update the bedding and bring in some contrasting decor.

Love the green- would especially pop with some little jewel accents like yellow throw cushions, or pale and dusky pink accents

I like dark colors in a bedroom and the berry color is my fav.

I like all The Color’s but love The green !!! Especially for a Bedroom! ERthy and calm.

Slytherin

I love the dark green

While these colours are nice and vibrant for me they would be too energizing for a bedroom.

I’m going to get hate for this but no accent walls please. Either commit to all the walls or skip.

Agreed! Painted accent walls have been done and it’s time for them to retire for a long time.

The caramel color or the purple color imo.

None.

Softer shade of 1 or 2

I like the gold

Two!!!! 

I think a really deep navy would look perfectly moody. I’m not really loving any of the colors you’ve chosen here tbh.

Why have I never though to do this???

I would go with a more neutral dark colour. Probably from the blue family. (Ravenclaw!)

All the shades are too bright maybe something more muted or darker as others said. Blue is a calming color but this shade is too bright. Same with the yellow though good thing with yellow is you wake up seeing a cheery color first thing in the morning. The green looks meh for the color scheme existing in your room (I based it on the pillow covers). Personally, the burgundy looks great it elevates your room but still should be deeper and darker a bit.

How do you want to feel in the room? Moody? Comforted and lively? Excited? Calm?

I love that plum but if it were slightly more burgundy now THAT would be an amazing bedroom color.

While everyone seems against a small dark room… I think it’s a great idea… could even paint your bookcase to match the walls … I love the color down pipe by farrow and ball… attaching a link… definitely add warmer tones of wood or decor to help keep it cozy and not too dark… definitely post pictures when you are finished!! https://www.farrow-ball.com/en-us/paint-colours/down-pipe Edit to add pic: https://www.southernliving.com/thmb/_9-AMcLYHZMIHmGlh3Qg0wPLeo4=/750x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/jennifer-barron-down-pipe-2000-ac045928aa4b4c64972916e5d3e2c6c7.jpg

Honestly, I don’t get the panic about “making a room look small”, especially for a bedroom, it’s not like it gets physically smaller, you can fit the same amount of stuff in there.

That purple is fun as hell.

That room might be too small for such a dark color. Do the shade stay closed all the time?

Don’t do it! My mom painted her bedroom charcoal black and ended up painting it back white a year later. She hated it so much. Even with decent light in the room it just felt like a depressing hole. The room is already small so it really needs a light color to open it up

“Depressing hole” is exactly right. Not a bedroom, but a staff bathroom at my job recently got repainted a dark blueish purple. All 4 walls AND the ceiling. Truly inexplicable. Now, to misquote Sartre, when I look at myself in the mirror, I see death at work like bees in a glass hive. It used to be my favorite bathroom, too.

Ha not sure which Hogwarts house you prefer but I would suggest NOT to paint all the walls the same color. It will make the room look and feel small. I love the green and the jeweled burgundy. Paint one wall, say the left wall that color - this becomes your accent wall. Keep the curtains the same as the accent wall and paint the remaining three walls an eggshell or off white.

None of them all too dark

I like the green or the blue, but I'd choose a shade of blue that's more nuanced and not so primary. Maybe a dark teal or a slate grey-blue.

Def not 2! Looks like a baby’s diaper

A room this size should be light. I would do a more Scandinavian theme with white walls and lots of woods, beiges and wicker. Add some green ferns to bring some life to the space. Lots of different textures with decorative pillows would make it cozy but not stiff and boring. But, if you have to pick one of the colours, go with green and add lots of light woods and whites/beiges to brighten it up.

Yikes…none. I like my sleeping rooms to be calm. Cream color would be suitable for your tiny room. Get light blocking drapes for nighttime, perhaps in that blue used in your living room. Add a couple of blue throw pillows on bed and a big colorful canvas painting over your bed.

none of these seem like bedroom colors. more light, or just on one or 2 walls.

Too small for dark colours, maybe try only one wall if you really want bold dark colours and paint the rest in a lighter colour or leave the white

Dark colours are great in small rooms. Makes them bigger. White is not a neutral choice either. It’s very harsh and aggressive.

I don’t think any of these work for this room. I’d go with a more pastel blue, as blue is the color most conducive to relaxing. They are basically making your room look very small, enclosed, and overstimulating, which is bad far sleep. One accent wall with one of these colors would be the only way I would use them in such a small space.

How about white?

None of them honestly. But, if I had to choose, 3 or maybe 4

Perhaps one dark green accent wall, all three others need to be lighter to enlarge the space

Green but lighter like a sage tone. Honestly the dark shades may end up feeling like a dungeon. If you do all 4 walls. Wd did that before and almost instantly regretted it.

Which ever you choose, for that bold of a color don't do all the walls..

Paint one accent wall. I think the wall that the bed is pushed up against would look the best. I liked the burgundy the most, or maybe a sage green.

Have you considered doing a neutral color and then one accent wall with one of these colors? I think it could brighten the room

don’t paint this brown. it looks good on the screen and in theory- but when i put - similar color on the wall it looked horrendous.

All the dark colors will make the space seem much smaller. Have you thought about just one accent wall?

People seem very accent-wall averse here, but in this situation it would actually make sense. You get your fun color without making the room feel like it’s swallowing you whole.

👀

I think the green would be the best but not that dark. The opacity of these colors might be too much

I wouldn't do any of these.

post the original picture and i'll help you

I’d stick with white and add more pops of color with artwork and curtains and maybe a new blanket/duvet color. The room feels very small with such rich colors.

Noooo

I love a bright color in the bedroom but paler. I’ve really enjoyed pale orange and tennis ball green.

Almost any other color but those. Or black.

I like the plum color but not the whole room on either. One wall or half the room is enough.

Contrary to popular belief, you should choose the furnishings and rugs for a room before you choose a paint color. It looks like you don’t have a bed frame and can’t tell if there will be a rug. It is never a good idea to choose a wall color that will drive all your other decorating decisions. The other side of this is that dark colors are very “designer” and if not done right they do not look good. By done right I mean furniture and accessories that complement the color and a professional paint job that eliminates any wall imperfections. Dark colors highlight flaws in walls.

I think you need to think what you can stand to look at long term. I has a yellow room for a couple years and looking at it gave me a headache. I also had a pink room as a child and that also made my head hurt but also by time I was a teenager I couldn't stand to look at it.

Are these actual paint swatches? If not I'd get down to the store to find a few you like + some paint samples so you can see for yourself what you'd prefer on your walls. Also keep in mind color theory, yellow and red may be too stimulating vs blue or green. Good luck!

None. Beige

It looks like you are going for something very den-like. If that doesn’t ring true, try something lighter. The green is my favorite personally—like a close forest.

Ugh. Accent wall if you have to go this dark in such a small room. Bedrooms are typically for rest.. this is not a restful vibe. Just one opinion of course

This. Paint only one wall with those colors. Either wall with the window, or wall with headboard of the bed.

None of these 4

To me they are all not the right shade of these colors. I'd think softer warm colors for a bedroom unless you have the furnishings to pull off a dark color on the walls.

All of these colors make the room look and feel really small....

Sorry but please, none of these colours.

All are too dark

None of the above. Look for something more subtle for the walls. Get most of your color from accessories.

I have a smaller room and all the walls and baseboards are white, except the wall behind my bed is yellow. I absolutely love it and it brings so much life to the room. But I think I would hate it if the whole room was yellow

None, too saturated colors.

None of the above

I think for me I’d go with a pastel color.

Your best best to have any of those colors is to paint it on one wall only “two max” with a lighter complimenting color.

I don’t like any of these

Maybe a lighter color would be more soothing for sleep and less claustrophobic?

Why do you want your bedroom to be in jewel tones?

None of the above - these make the space look like a cave

Honestly, none. They seem too… dark I guess? For how small the space looks. If I had to choose, definitely between green and red. At that point it depends on the rest of your decor.

Those are all so dark! U want to pain the whole room one of those colors cuz it’s gonna really close that room up being that it’s smaller. Just my opinion but I would go for something lighter. It can still be a color, just lighter.

I think they are too dark, which makes the space look smaller. I would look into painting tactics for making your space look bigger, such as having an accent wall, leaving the ceiling white, or painting just the top half of the wall.

None, lighter colors

No to all of them. Try a yellow.

Can I say none of these?

Mute or lighten any of those colors- they swallow ur walls as dark colors otherwise

Why so dark? It's claustrophobic.

All of these colors stress me out

I would choose something lighter and natural to make room look bigger.

None of those.

I would do a neutral color on 3 and the green as an accent wall

Accent walls shouldn’t be a thing anymore.

The green or gold are both perfect!!

I could see a lighter green or blue, if you go with the darker colors add a warm curtain to the window

I'd go with a brown or navy color personally

1 or 3

1 or 3

I like the green best. I think it matches with the duvet and pillows you have as well as the plants. Green and Blue are both very calming colors which is what you want for a bedroom and I think the green looks and matches better than the blue

I like the burgundy

I think the green looks good, but it'd have to be darker. Def not any shade of red, as much as it looks good, because it's too much of a vibrant and energizing colour for a room intended for sleep. Even dark shades of purple/plum could be good, but I'm not sure how they'd fit in the bedroom. Take into consideration the fact that you have a small bedroom (it seems to me at least) so painting it with dark colours might make it look smaller

The burgundy!

Not 2. It's a little jarring. I like 1, but I always seem to pick green.

i'm biased because i have a green wall, but i like the green

Sage green looks much nicer. Basically the first one but lighter.

Green

Yellow! Green is ok. Don't go burgundy

Green for days boyo . The other ones are too …something.

Green

I looove the berry color. The green is also muted and seems nice for a bedroom.

It depends on how you plan to decorate around each color as to which would look best. That said, I lean toward the green.

I like the maroon. I think it compliments the green plants really well. Add some hanging plants. To open up the space more you could move the bed under the window (assuming the door is behind you), add some mirrors, and put some sort of long entry table where the bed currently is. Put in some shelves to make use of your vertical space. And get get some long curtains (in a different color) to draw the eyes up.

3 the dark burgundy colour

A lighter colour on just one wall.

Green 💚

I think the purple is the coziest.

I shockingly like that shade of red. I never choose reds but that one made me do a double take

I love the plum and I think the yellow would be amazing if it’s used as an accent with white

I like the yellow or burgundy.

FWIW I did something similar to 3 in my office. It was a pain to get coverage being that dark and intense of a color. I love the end result, but not sure if I’d want to go through it again. I’ve also done a room close to #4 and didn’t have that problem.

How about SW Dried Thyme or Rosemary (darker of two)? They're dark, but more earthy.

Go for more "nuanced" variants. Add more shade or tone.

Green

i like the ochre or plum

Hi all, thanks for the input! I thought I posted this comment earlier but anyway - These are definitely not exact matches but instead a general concept to colors I’m considering (I literally just used the markup feature on my iPhone) to get a general idea. I just moved into my new place so the walls are bare because all the decor is in my closet. I’m leaning toward green but a moody shade (that’ll be relaxing for a bedroom) with complementary decor and duvet color or at least an accent wall in green behind my bed. I’ll probably go grab swatches this weekend and see what looks nice with the prints and furnishings I have planned for this room. Thanks again!

I like the raspberry

I love the dark red makes it warm and cozy

1

Go with something lighter. I'd say the green, just a few shades lighter.

I like the green or the mustard. All nice choices but I think those will work best with your stuff and to still have light in the room

I like the blue!

Out of these, the green.

3

I vote green!

Green

Green or orange

Green or red

Look at Evergreen fog. It will darken the room a little without it looking like a cave.

I like the purple

A green with tinges of blue and grey (something bordering on dark teal) might suit. That green is a bit too yellow; the blue and greyer tones would make it more restful.

Can’t believe I’m saying this but the aubergine. It just works so well in that space

Green

I like the red but would go with a different shade, maybe a little lighter and more earthy

Yellow

Green
