Navy Bedroom Feature Wall Inspiration

Feature walls make a welcome addition to any bedroom. However, they're particularly effective in bedrooms and add an extra dimension to your space. A navy blue feature wall is a versatile option, working well in all-white spaces and tonal-blue bedrooms alike. 

An accent wall can compensate for a lack of a headboard or limited square footage. When it comes to designing a bedroom feature wall, you can keep things simple with solid colour or experiment with two-tone designs. Navy is the perfect starting point, creating visual interest, whilst leaving you with plenty of options when selecting complementary colours. 

Navy works well with just about any shade of blue paint. However, you can also coordinate navy elements with neutral shades and light-coloured bedroom walls. 

Our paint range is packed with premium colours to help you realise your design ambitions. Need some pointers to get you started? Read on for some first-rate room styling suggestions and killer colour combinations.

Accentuate Natural Accents with a Navy Blue Feature Wall

If you're a fan of natural accents like rattan and reclaimed furniture, dark navy walls are the way to go. A darker shade of blue paint is the perfect companion to light wood, providing a dramatic backdrop that will let your furniture and furnishings shine. 

If you don't want to use a dark wall colour to paint an entire room, use an off-white shade like Paper F497 as your primary colour. A lighter hue will help maximise natural light, particularly in smaller rooms. 

When you're ready to create your feature wall, reach for a bold colour like Denim N429. This stunning shade is one of our standout dark colours and works beautifully with off-white neutrals with subtle blue undertones. 

Classic Navy Feature Wall Bedroom Inspiration

Blue walls can be used to add interest to any part of your bedroom, not just behind a headboard. If you're dealing with an awkward room layout, introduce navy blue throughout to add depth and character. 

A medium blue like Atlantis L433 is perfect for creating a timeless aesthetic in a master suite or guest room. It's on the darker side, but it's vibrant enough that won't overwhelm a space. What's more, it's the perfect companion to nautical light fixtures, neutral soft furnishings and white room trims.

Cool tones will work well alongside this blue. For a versatile accent colour, use Arctic Fox S503. This off-white paint colour has grey and light blue undertones, meaning it can be just about anywhere once you've taken care of your feature wall.

Contemporary Navy Blue Bedroom Ideas

If you're a fan of contemporary design, a blue colour palette is your best friend. You can use an assortment of blues throughout your bedroom, reserving a rich navy for room recesses and accent walls.

For best results, stick to a cooler tone when painting bedroom walls. Once you've decided on the location of your feature wall, use a darker shade to create a beautiful backdrop to a headboard or display unit.

For a modern look, start with an off-white paint colour like Winter V503. This neutral colour has light blue and grey accents that are easily accented with a tonal palette. You can use this muted shade to paint an entire room or combine it with a dark navy for a two-tone feature wall to be proud of. 

Searching for the perfect navy for a bedroom feature wall? Nocturne N348 is bound to impress with its inky blue pigment. If you're using this one as a backdrop for a display unit or open shelving, introduce plenty of white, grey and blue elements to create interest.

Dark Navy Blue Feature Wall Inspiration

Sometimes, it's best to keep things simple when decorating a bedroom. However, a stripped-back interior can still be enhanced with a feature wall. 

For a low-key look that won't disappoint, use a neutral blue for your bedroom walls and pick out a deeper hue for a single wall. You can leave things as they are, or add some texture with room fabrics and throw pillows. 

Use an easygoing neutral like Lotus F448 to coat the majority of your room. This off-white shade is on the lighter side, but subtle blue and grey accents make it the perfect partner for deep blue and navy paint colours. 

When you're ready to make a statement, reach for Royal M436. This deep and moody blue can be used to create stunning two-tone feature walls. However, it's most effective when used in isolation. These work best in a matt paint finish.

Navy Bedroom Colour Palettes

Thinking about enhancing your bedroom with a navy feature wall? Read on for some dynamic colour combinations that will instantly transform any room. 

If you're decorating a smaller space, it's best to mix things up with contrasting colours. Too much navy can prove overwhelming for a tiny bedroom, but a splash of sky blue can really open things up. 

An off-white neutral like Camelia F300 works well in smaller bedrooms. It might look a bit subdued, but its lilac undertones pair beautifully with dark blues and navy shades. 

To inject some vibrancy into your space, use Glacier Y435. This sky blue shade will instantly brighten up any bedroom. To add contrast, use a dark navy like Indigo L429 when putting the finishing touches to your feature wall. Alternatively, use a combination of the two to create an inspiring two-tone accent wall.

Navy and lilac are an ideal match. If you're thinking about creating a bespoke bedroom feature ball, there's no better colour pairing. 

Start with a lighter shade like Necklace F428. With its lilac-blue undertones, this beautiful paint colour works well with purple and navy alike. Alternatively, keep things simple with a pale blue like Snowdrift L503. 

Once you've settled on a neutral, start introducing some dramatic colour with a dark navy like Royal M436. This stylish shade works well with whites and blues but also proves effective alongside gold and metallic accents. 

If you're going to use multiple paint shades in your bedroom, you'll need to ensure you're using complementary colours. For your navy of choice to really shine, you'll need to populate your palette with some more muted hues. 

Seagull F496 is a fine choice when looking for wall paint for bedrooms. This pale blue has grey undertones, making it a versatile choice. If you're searching for a more feminine colour, Feather F487 will deliver with its light lilac pigment. 

With your lighter shades selected, you can start introducing navy into the mix. Ink M350 is one of our premier paint colours. This inky blue will create a stunning statement wall and pairs well with off-whites, blues and purples alike. 

Blues are a brilliant choice for any bedroom. With the right shades at your disposal, you can use blue throughout a room, without stealing focus from a stylish navy feature wall. 

Winter V503 is a classic paint colour that will look right at home in any bedroom. It's on the lighter side, but its grey undertones make it one of our most versatile paint colours. 

If you're after something with more pigment, go with Glacier Y435. This sky blue shade will breathe new life into any bedroom and will make a welcome addition to any tonal palette. 

For the perfect finishing touch to a tonal blue bedroom, only a navy will do. Petrol S491 is a fine choice for creating dramatic accent walls. What's more, its grey undertones mean you can introduce grey and neutral paints into the mix.
