After seeing the bathroom, I had this idea. If you are going to paint how about something like this!

Paint the wall behind the bed the deep blue (BM Van Deusen Blue my fav) and blue, white and beige in art; then add night stands in complimentary tones depending on chairs and dresser you pick. A more gray rug tues in bathroom and do woven black out roman shades to coordinate colorwise. A light fixture like this one would work in any position.

I think just bringing in blue bedding will tie in Bathroom…I am not crazy about accent walls but some people like them…I would stick with a warm neutral all around so very cozy…even just the addition of crisp white sheets gives it a fresh look and ties in with white in the bathroom….I don’t mind the warm wall color so nice with the addition of blue.

Sorry, Julie, we disagree. With the very cool elements in the bathroom, if you leave bedroom walls warm tones it will look like you haven’t finished the bedroom. You can achieve a mix but you need more than white and neutrals. As a minimum, I would paint walls all warm white. Then the bathroom will feel more integrated. With the blue wall in the bedroom, it will look totally intentional. And Daddy likes deep blue. 😊

Found nice reasonably priced reading chair, side table, reading floor lamp and ceiling fixture. Here’s how it all comes together.

Items:

Measurements for Chairs

If keeping the bed centered, there is 68" from side of the bed to the deepest part of bay window and most shallow measurement to side wall next to windows is 36". I'm not sure if he will ever use the chairs, most likely he'll only sleep in the bedroom or watch TV from the bed. So, if the chairs will make the room feel tight, we can skip them, at least for now.

Wal Colors

I'll make the final decision on the color once I get all main elements of the room. Thank you, Flo Mangan, for suggesting SW Alabaster, it's the main color in our house, I agree it's very versatile. The undertones of the color (SW 7035 Aesthetic White at 75% saturation) used in the adjoining bathroom would work really well with the bed too.

Flo Mangan, thank you for the inspirational mock up with an accent wall. Beautiful for sure! The windows on the sides of the bed frame it really well. For now, I can't really invision it in the dad's room, so I prefer to complete the room first and then reconsider the accent wall.

The bathroom tile and countertop has brown veins that soften the white and share the same undertones with the wood of the bed's frame. Home Interiors With Ease I agree, blue bedding and crisp white sheets will tie in bathroom well. And a grey rug suggested by Flo Mangan will complete the connecting palette.

Dresser

I found the dresser that I really like, I think it has a fresh but timeless look and according to the description the undertones are gray and should go well with the gray undertones of the bed. What do you think?

Blue wall will transform everything. So beautiful and cozy too. More fun too.

Yes, love that dresser and it should be a good height for the TV above it. How wide is it?

Always good to take a step at a time. Is there room for a bench at the foot of the bed? Might be good to have place to sit down and put shoes on etc.

The dresser you posted is very contemporary and does not fit in with the more traditional style of the bed and I honestly think it has a very feminine style…I would urge you to reconsider and look for something with a bit less detailing..I think it will fight with the very traditional nailhead detail on the bed……if going with a grey rug maybe consider painting the walls a very subtle gray?

Side by side these pieces of furniture do not mix well? Only here to help hide you the best we can before you make a purchase.

If pattern on floor, imo, no change needed for walls.

Maybe a mix like this?

Home Interiors With Ease, Flo Mangan, thank you for keeping me in the right direction. What about this dresser? The color swatch that I got from the store matches the bed frame really well. And the color of hardware matches the nailhead detail pf the bed.

The dimensions are: Overall: 56" wide x 18.25" deep x 32.5" high.

There is also a smaller variation that is only 42.25" wide.

Pretty but seems too delicate and feminine for a mens bedroom 🤷‍♀️

Good Morning Irene…
The last dresser posted is much better style but now worried about the size…The proportions are very important…it will be on a very big wall 17’……..56” is too small…you need a large triple dresser at least 72”…..what size TV are you hanging over it?

This one is 72”

This looks great together too! masculine clean design…if I recall it is 72” in length.

I have some basic questions on dresser. Is that a walk in closet or a reach in closet? Does your Father need drawer space? Have you measured from bed where his head would be to that far wall to see what height the TV will be? That will inform height to look for in either a dresser or console/buffet unit. I would like that info to help with hunt. Does he have hobbies? Does he have a career he retired from that we might nod to in design for this space? I wonder about these things so the space feels good to him.

Flo Mangan, the longest viewing distance would be about 12'.

There is a small walk in closet. He doesn't need a lot of drawer space.

Found this one that is 42” high and has lots of storage. Not overly wide which I have been thinking you could put a chair either side for visitor seating to chat and still see to bed if Dad was in bed. Even just one chair would be nice. This is a media cabinet but offers other nice features. With TV on top could be great multipurpose piece for him.

I think a combo of light and darker woods could work well. Here are some ideas. We really need to see some finishes with the wood of the bed. But here is board of ideas.

I really think you need a nice substantial piece of furniture on that big wall..it will balance out the room.

Maybe a big extra long credenza for storage of your fathers extra needed items..would look amazing on that big wall…add a couple navy blue nailhead chairs in the Bay Area. Do side chests for night stands..that would give him drawers.

Maybe consider doing one of the beds matching night stands.
Here are two more bedding options…same herringbone texture cones in two colors.PB

Nice to know there's an excellent one you've seen already. Nailheads on bed, to me, no more needed...

I have been working on a mock up for you off and on all afternoon. What I found is the color of your walls was driving me nuts! Haha. So I painted them Alabaster. I offer this for your vision. Integration of the color of the tufted portion of the headboard is challenging so a pillow might help that. Instead of a chair, perhaps a bench at the foot of bed or over by the windows would work nicely. With this drawer/TV unit I think you could also put a chair beside it as I think I mentioned before.

Here are a few chairs that I found.

Here is the bench. It’s on sale from Macy’s

Flo I think the walls are much lighter than they apear in the photos? Not sure but in this one photo it is very light warm white? I wonder what the wall color is in the bathroom?
I do worry this bedroom could go a bit french country depending on the other furniture choices…Irene has a lot to consider for sure.

Found this blue rug really great price too!

Has a grey band…

I think the walls are lighter too Julie but still a bit too yellow. It is challenging. I am wondering something. I love the look of the first photo you posted of the bed Irene. The wood seems so much lighter. If it is dark, would you consider lightening it up? Or would that not work with Dad?

Home Interiors with Ease, could you please for items used in your collages?

The bedroom color is SW Creamy, and the bathroom color is SW 7035 Aesthetic White at 75% saturation.

The hardest part for me is picking the dresser and nightstands that would go well with the bed. The style of the bed is a real challenge for me. ))) I'd like to stay away from very traditional options though. I highly appreciate your help.

The wall doesn't really feel long, the Bay Windows make it appear shorter.

Here are another couple options to consider. Could something like that work?

Dimensions: 66.5"w 20"d 33.5"h

Dimensions: 78.75"w 17.75"d 31.5"h

Dimensions: 59"w 17.75"d 31"h

Here you go..do you want the navy blue chair info? The wall in The layout shows a measurement of 17’….rooms and walls always appear smaller when empty so keep that in mind.

The darker pieces you posted are not a good mix..they are very mid century modern…the light piece is ok but still a bit too contemporary to me..the bed frame and headboard have such a strong style..you really can’t fight it..so best to go in the less is more style direction…you can always add more modern touches in the lamps and art and rug.

Thank you for the links and detailed explanation, makes total sense. What about this one? Too modern as well?

Dimensions: 69"w 20"d 36"h

I think this combonation is a winner!

Grey rug info if you want to go into that direction…

Home Interiors with Ease, "I think this combination is a winner!",

AGREE!

I like that dresser too. Good find!

Wonderful!!

I have wanted a combo of woods and this all works. Thanks for the wall color too. Only other thought is to select chair if you do a chair that isn’t too dark. They tend to catch every piece of lint and dust flying around. I would still lean with blues. Bring some Gray in from bathroom for rug. I also assume you can personalize it with some of your dad’s fav things or pictures. You could do a grouping of pictures around TV on wall. Some version of this. From 4 to more pictures. Ones that make your Dad happy every time he sees them.

Flo Mangan, thank you for another great idea and valuable tips!

Flo Mangan, Home Interiors With Ease, I'm very grateful for your enormous help!

I ordered the dresser and expect to receive it in a month. Since I have plenty of time to complete the room till March, I'll get all the furniture pieces first and then will move to a decoration stage. I can keep you updated if you'd like to, though it may take a couple of months. )))

Agree personal art and photos would make your father feel very comfortable in his new room….I have been collecting old black and white family photos this past year….I plan on framing them all the same with big mat around each of them and creating a big family gallery wall in our next home..we plan on moving this year back to Michigan..so excited..just remember to have fun and enjoy the process!

Oh please do keep us posted as you move along. Love what you are doing and I know your Father will feel very honored. Although, you should be ready for a “period of adjustment“!

I sure will keep you posted.

Home Interiors With Ease Julie, congratulations on moving back to Michigan! I looove the idea of the black and white family gallery! We're in the process of collecting pictures of family photos for a family gallery too.

Flo Mangan .Flo, thank you for your warm words! Totally agree about the "period of adjustment", luckily, I have great support from my amazing husband.
