A Colorful Upgrade for a Dull Bedroom

After getting married and moving into a three-storey townhouse, the owners of this space were more than ready to embark on a journey together. While they were able to spruce up some of the spaces in the house, their bedroom was left plain and boring—with cracks on the walls and a few basic pieces.

To transform the space into a private nook the owners would love to stay in, interior designer Meigan Tan made bold color choices, incorporated functional furniture pieces, and even worked on little tweaks that contributed to the room’s overall new look. Though the couple wanted a calming bedroom reminiscent of hotels and resorts, Meigan took it a notch higher by coming up with an aesthetic that combines the feel of resorts and the luxury of hotels. “I wanted to simulate the feeling of being in another place,” says Meigan. With a budget of P10, 791—the designer was able to achieve the vibe of Tuscany, Italy.
