Although we love seeing artwork in other people's bedrooms, we're always a little uncertain about hanging it in our own. If it's going to enter our dreams, it better be something we really like. Browsing through the online catalog of German furniture manufacturer Hülsta, we found a lot of ideas for hanging artwork in the bedroom, from oversized paintings above the bed to asymmetrical arrangements...
The chunky frame gives this painting a weighty presence over the bed.
The pastel colors of the painting set the tone for this room.
Four evenly spaced canvases create a horizontal rhythm above the headboard.
The gold that frames the central painting is carried into sculptural accent pieces.
The mirror sill above the bed provides space for an artful arrangement.
A large pendant anchors the room, while a panoramic painting balances the horizontal bed.
A strip of wallpaper the width of the bed acts as artwork.
An off-center grid on one side of the bed is balanced by floating shelves on the other.
A curtain becomes an airy headboard, with artwork on both sides of the room.
A large mirror above the bed reflects a sculptural chandelier.

Love the off-center shelf, but it looks like someone might bonk his/her head getting up in the morning.
What I really like, though, is that floor arrangement which I imagine contains living papyrus. What an elegant alternative to flowers (provided you have good light)! I'd love to do something like this if the cats didn't bite everything strap-leaved... I have a smaller but similar cyperus on a pedestal, and the cats will stand on another nearby planter to try to pull those pompom heads down into their mouths.

do you mean the third photo down? i love that plant; it's definitely a papyrus? i'm trying to think of good apartment plants and trees. i'm in boston and my apartment is VERY warm and dry, although my bedroom has good light. will it grow, or is it doomed because of the climate?

Does anyone know where I can buy artworks similar to photo no. 3, the four evenly space canvases with trees?
