Muted orange bedroom wall

Orange can seem like an overwhelming choice when decorating your home, but this stimulating section of the colour wheel is definitely worth a second look. Whether you’re a fan of bright citrus hues or prefer pale pastel shades, orange is an ideal choice when it comes to giving your bedroom a refresh. 

Orange shades are incredibly warm and can help make a room feel more welcoming and relaxing during the evening. Do you need some motivation to get going in the morning? Light orange paint colours are perfect for bringing energy to a small space. 

Orange hues are also easy to decorate with. You can stick to simple colour pairings like off-white or make a stunning design statement by introducing verdant greens or contemporary mid-tones. 

Searching for some orange bedroom ideas? We’re here to help. Read on for more reasons why you should be thinking seriously about orange bedroom walls, along with a selection of must-try shades for your next decorating project. 

Why Paint Your Bedroom Walls Orange?

Orange is one of the most stimulating colours around, making it great for reviving a tired-looking bedroom. It’s also remarkably versatile. Neutral hues with orange undertones serve as a dream base for bedroom makeovers. 

However, even the most intense oranges won’t pose a design challenge. You can embrace contemporary trends by decorating your walls with a burnt orange paint colour, before then introducing black and white furnishings. 

What’s more, an orange palette will work in bedrooms of any size. A more muted orange looks superb in a master bedroom with ornate furniture and traditional features. In a smaller space, use richer shades to create dramatic feature walls. 

Our 10 Favourite Orange Paint Colours for a Bedroom

Ready to create a one-of-a-kind bedroom? We’ve chosen some of the most inspiring oranges in our range to help get those creative juices flowing. 

If you’re searching for an orange to add warmth to your bedroom, try using Jasmine Flower. This light peach has a hint of copper, making it a sophisticated addition to a more grown-up sleep space.

As it’s fairly subtle, you can be generous when using this shade in your next decorating project. It will bring plenty of orange intensity to your space, without saturating your room with too much colour. Eager to incorporate some elegant aesthetics? Try using blush tones if you’re searching for complementary colours. 

A subdued orange infused with pink accents will also work nicely in a bedroom. If you’re looking for a citrus-inspired hue with added warmth, look no further than La Minuet. Combining familiar orange with a hint of rosy pink and copper, this shade will add plenty of complexity to your space, even if you’re using it as an all-wall bedroom colour. 

Because of all those little details, you have plenty of choices when selecting accent colours to build your bedroom palette. Use blush tones and pinks to add some understated warmth to your interior. Alternatively, you can bring in a more vibrant orange shade for a feature wall.

Would you rather stick with a subtle citrus hue when decorating your bedroom? Peachskin is the perfect choice. A lighter take on standard orange, this gorgeous paint colour still brings that illuminating quality you need to brighten up a bedroom. What’s more, a hint of copper brings some understated elegance that can be enhanced with metallic accents. 

Although it’s a relatively muted colour, this paint shade will uplift your space, even when used to coat every wall. If you’re tired of keeping it simple with almost-white neutrals, try working this orange into your next decorating project. 

If you’re planning on turning a tired-looking bedroom into a more grown-up space, earthy colours work particularly well. With its muted character and rusty pigment, Enchanted Desert will serve as a stylish foundation for any bedroom decorating project. 

The earthy elements and rusty notes mean you have an orange that will pair beautifully with romantic shades like purple. You can also accentuate this illuminating orange by experimenting with honeyed tones. For a sophisticated final flourish, be inspired by those barely-there hints of copper and add some metallics to your bedroom decor. 

The best bedroom decor should leave you feeling inspired and energised at the break of the day. With Morning Balm, you have a versatile orange shade that will illuminate your room and get your day off to a brilliant start.

This muted apricot hue is a good option if you’re a little bit unsure about more daring citrus shades. You can keep your new bedroom look low-key with neutral colours, or try using more intense shades for an irresistible orange colour scheme.

Autumnal shades work well in most bedrooms. With a muted orange like Pottery Class, you have a classic colour that can be used as the backdrop for traditional decor and more contemporary arrangements alike. 

For best results, you can try pairing this autumnal orange with other seasonal colours. Reach for pumpkin oranges, muted tangerines and earthy reds. 

Are you looking for a citrus shade that veers closer to red than orange? A pure apricot like Rustic Pottery could be the perfect choice. This vibrant hue has a hint of cinnamon, making it a dramatic design choice that will redefine your sleep space.

This intense shade is a good option for those who like the idea of refreshing a bedroom with red, but don’t want to overwhelm their bedroom with too much colour. Use it as a wall paint in a larger room, or balance it out with golden oranges and subdued browns for a more mature makeover.

If you have more of a preference for red than orange, try using a colour like Candy Corn to revitalise your bedroom. This gorgeous salmon shade brings together qualities of both colour families, while brick undertones make it an exceptionally warm addition to any bedroom wall. 

This eye-catching shade works well with autumnal shades, so try incorporating earthy browns and rusty hues into your bedroom palette. It’s also a strong statement colour. Even if you think this might be too intense for a smaller bedroom, you can still use it for a feature wall. 

If you want to incorporate different moods into your bedroom decor, start with something vibrant like Cinnamon Stone. This fiery apricot has a hint of cinnamon, making it both vibrant and refined. 

Although this is an earthy orange, it’s an intense one. You can use other spiced shades if you’re keen to embrace an autumn-inspired palette. Failing that, standard pairings like off-white and grey work just as well. 

Coral shades will always work well in the bedroom. If pink doesn’t inspire you, try experimenting with coral oranges instead. With its spicy notes and luxuriously smooth pigment, Coral Silk is the perfect choice. 

Full of energy and ideal for adding warmth to a bedroom, this versatile shade will work beautifully in spaces of any size. You can enhance it by using subdued browns as an accent colour, but sherbet shades and copper tones will also make a welcome addition to your palette.
