What psychological impact does the colour of bed sheets and bedding have?

Knowing the psychological impact of the colour of bedding on people will make it easier to choose the colour of the bedding. Here, we will explain each of the different colours used in bedding.

White

The white bedsheet is clean and has the effect of making the space look wider and brighter. Since it is a standard colour, you can choose from many products. However, since the colour reflects light the most, it may feel dazzling depending on the room's lighting, making it difficult to fall asleep. In that case, it is recommended to choose off-white or unbleached.

Beige/brown

Brown is a warm and soothing colour. It is also the colour of tree trunks and soil and has a naturally relaxing effect. Beige is brown with white added, and it is also a colour that blends well with the skin. A beige bed sheet is also a calming colour, so it's perfect for sheets and bedding.

Yellow

Yellow, which is a kind of warm colour, gives bedding a warm atmosphere. A saturated yellow can be uplifting, but a less saturated yellow will make your bed feel brighter and more joyful, making you feel more optimistic.

Red/orange

Red has an energetic image and has the effect of making people energetic. Orange also has a bright image and has the effect of increasing appetite. However, if the colour is too bright and vivid, it may disturb sleep, so it is recommended to choose a light tone with less brightness when choosing red or orange.

Pink

If pink is a pale colour, it is said to have a relaxing effect. It has an image of women and love and is said to have anti-ageing effects. Vivid colours stimulate, so use them only as accent colours. If you want to make it the main colour, we recommend a light pink that has a relaxing effect.

Blue

Blue is also known as a calming colour and is a calming colour. Along with green, it's an excellent colour for the bedroom because it can help stabilize your breathing and pulse and calm stress. It also has a cool impression, so it is recommended for hot summer days. Also, depending on the colour, it is a colour that is easy to combine with other colours, such as beige and white.

Green

Green, which is also the colour of grass and leaves, has a high healing effect, and if you use it for bedding, it will be relaxing as if you were surrounded by nature. It is the perfect colour for the bedroom because it is a colour that is less irritating and gives you a sense of security. Green also relieves eye fatigue, so it is recommended for people who tend to get tired from computer work.

Purple

Purple, which generally has a mysterious image, is said to have a hypnotic effect and is a colour suitable for thinking about something and working intensively. It is a slightly unsuitable colour if you want to sleep calmly, but it is recommended for those who want to increase their sensitivity. It is also found in flower colours such as lavender, so depending on the colour tone, it can also have a relaxing effect. Using it as an accent colour in a small area, such as a cushion cover, is recommended.

Black/grey

Black has a luxurious and modern image, but if it is used as the primary colour, the bedroom will have a heavy atmosphere, so grey colours are recommended. Grey bed sheets are a colour that relieves stress, such as fatigue and irritation. It also has an understated elegance and complements the surrounding colours, making it easy to use in combination with other colours.

What is the colour of bed sheets and duvet covers so that you can sleep comfortably?

Here are some recommended colours for bed sheets and duvet covers to help you sleep soundly. Cool colours activate the parasympathetic nerves and lead to restful sleep.

In order to bring good quality sleep, it is important to increase the parasympathetic nerves of the autonomic nerves. It is said that cool colours have the effect of activating the parasympathetic nervous system, so choosing blue colours will increase your chances of getting a good night's sleep. Blue also has a calming effect, which can also help you sleep better.

Earth colours such as beige and brown are recommended to calm down

You can expect a calming effect by using colours that are abundant in nature for bed sheets and duvet covers. "Earth colours", such as sand, soil, and wood colours, and "ecology colours", including blue colours, such as the sea in the sky, are recommended for bedding.

In addition, "natural colours" such as off-white, unbleached, and beige are also suitable for sheets and duvet covers because they calm the mind.

How to match the colour of the bedroom with the colour of the bedsheets?

The bedroom's colour is also essential for a good night's sleep. You can expect a synergistic effect by choosing the colour of the bed sheets to match your bedroom.

For a monotone bedroom

In a monotone bedroom, white sheets such as white or unbleached are recommended. In order to get a good night's sleep, it is generally better to limit the number of colours used in the bedroom. For those who don't like white, light grey is also good.

In the case of a natural (beige, off-white) bedroom

For a neutral-hued bedroom, pale blue bed sheets are recommended. Blue is said to bring good sleep, and pale blue will match the atmosphere of a natural room.

What is the key to choosing the colour of bed sheets, duvet covers, and pillowcases?

What should I pay attention to when coordinating the colour of the bed in total? I will explain below.

It is recommended to limit the number of colours to 3-4.

As with the coordination of clothes, if there are too many colours, it won't be easy to put them together as a whole. Basically, it is recommended to keep the colour to 3 to 4 colours in total. If you can't help but get more than that, it's a good idea to unify the brightness and saturation as much as possible. Also, if you use a duvet cover with many colours, it is recommended to choose one colour for the pillow cover.

Sheets are easy to coordinate with white, beige, and grey

If you choose a calm colour such as white, beige, or grey for the sheets, it will be easy to match with other colours, and even people who are not good at coordinating can easily do it. Also, it will be easy to buy many types of products. Beige or grey colours are recommended because dirt is relatively inconspicuous.

A futon cover that changes the impression of the whole room can be accented with colours and patterns. A duvet cover has a large area, so it greatly impacts the room's impression. Choose solid colours or simple patterns, and try adding some strong colours as an accent. When choosing a pattern, choosing one with a small pattern is recommended. Also, if the duvet cover has a pattern, plain sheets and curtains will make it easier to coordinate the atmosphere. For an extra touch of style, you can combine simple pieces with other items, such as bed throws.

Having multiple pillowcases can change your mood.

A pillowcase is a small item, but it also affects the psychological effect of sleeping. Having multiple items in different colours expands the range of coordination, and it is convenient because you can change it according to your mood. In addition to the colour, changing the material according to the season is also recommended.

It is also important to choose colours that match the curtains and furniture.

The key is to match the colours of the bedding and other furniture as much as possible to create a unified look throughout the bedroom. Also, check the colour and material of the bed frame to see if it matches the room's atmosphere. For example, rather than choosing a metal-framed bed in a bedroom with a lot of wooden furniture, a wooden-framed bed will make the whole look cohesive.

Summary

When choosing bed sheets and bedding, it is a good idea to know the effects of different colours, as they have various psychological effects. We also recommend calming colours, such as blue, which calms the mind, earth colours that remind us of nature, such as plants; and colours, such as beige and unbleached, that blend well with the skin.
