Do you love Scandi design or are you more into coastal interiors?
The Ideal Linen Colours for You, According to Your Interior Style
Do you love Scandi design or are you more into coastal interiors?
We get it: choosing linen colours for your home can be a difficult choice. Should you go with a cooling tone such as Sage or Coast? Or a warm Terracotta or Rust? Poppy bright, such as Turmeric or Paprika?
One way to pick the ideal linen colours for you is to consult your wider interior style at home. How is the rest of your house or apartment styled? And what are you trying to convey through your décor?
Here are a few colour suggestions for some of the most popular interior design styles. And if you need more linen colour help, head to our Colour Guide for plenty of inspiration.
If you love… Contemporary
Your home embraces clean lines, sleek furnishings, and a generally minimal aesthetic. Clutter is your enemy and everything you own has a functional place it belongs. But it's not about having a home that's cold and boring, it's all about showing off the interior space and maximising the feeling of openness.
Linen colours:
A contemporary colour palette typically leans towards neutrals. Pared-back shades such as Charcoal, White, Fog, Mineral and Oatmeal will work wonderfully in modern bedrooms.
If you love… Scandi-Minimalism
Hej, hej! You love all things Scandinavian: pale wood, simple lines, and plenty of light are the name of the game when it comes to your home. Your colour palette is clean and bright, and you keep things easy breezy throughout, with a few cosy corners for snuggling in when you want to get hygge with it.
Linen colours:
White, Oatmeal, and Fog. These three shades go together like salmon and dill, or Benny and Bjorn – that’s an ABBA reference, folks. They also look great on their own. Clean, minimal and bright, these colours are the perfect backdrop for a bedroom full of the smooth lines of Scandi-minimalism and will complement the hygge vibes you have throughout your house.

If you love… Traditional
Following trends isn't so much your thing – you prefer a classic style that is timeless and elegant. The aesthetic is structured and balanced, rich in accessories, texture, and refined finishes.
Linen colours:
A colour palette that is understated is the way to go here. Turn to neutral tones and natural hues like Cacao, Oatmeal, Charcoal, White, Terracotta, and Olive.

If you love… Eclectic
Your house is a mix-and-match paradise, full of thrifted finds, beloved pieces hauled back from travels, more artwork than you can poke a stick at, and plenty of scuffed antiques. You love all things colourful, creative and unique.
Linen colours:
Go big or go home, if your decor style is eclectic-fabulous. You want bedding that is going to be in keeping with the vibrancy of your house, so opt for colourful tones and scalloped pillowcases for added interest. We suggest Pistachio, Mineral, Turmeric, Pink Clay, Paprika, and Rust.
If you love… Coastal
There’s an air of the relaxed beach house to your pad: lots of windows to let in the creamy light, plenty of linen everywhere, soft furnishings throughout and wide open spaces. Everything is simple and unfussy, and you’ve got a thing for driftwood artwork and shells.
Linen colours:
Coastal chic devotees are spoiled for choice. Any of the cooler colours at Bed Threads will work in a home by the sea, especially ones that are inspired by the ocean such as Coast, Mineral, White, Petrol, Oatmeal, Wildflower, and Sage All of these shades mix and match well together, so you can get a few different varieties to fill your linen cupboard easily, or start small with a matching set and build out from there. The world is quite literally your oyster.

If you love… Mediterranean
Your style is all about evoking a feeling of vacation. There's a certain casual atmosphere that allows you to feel like you're permanently on holiday with clever use of natural materials and summer tones that instantly calm the mind.
Linen colours:
All of our sunny tones; Limoncello, Turmeric, Terracotta, and Rust will bring a summery sensibility into your bedroom. Wildflower, Mineral, and Petrol are also suitable options here if you're looking for a cool tone that mimics the ocean.
If you love… Mid-Century Modern
You have the drop times on Curated Spaces saved as a regular alarm in your phone, you can’t get enough of Dakota Johnsons’ California-cool pad, you have a huge Slim Aarons print hanging above our bed. Hello, Mid-Century Modern!
Linen colours:
In keeping with the laidback, earthy and warm tones of your decorating style, you should opt for linen colours that reflect that, such as Olive, Rust, Turmeric, Mineral, and Sage. A mixture of these three (or even just two) shades will provide some of that '50s-era sophistication into your home, or go for a bed made entirely in one shade if you’re a linen completist.
