Color. Burnt orange, forest green, whatever - pick a dramatic color and use it for a throw across the end of the bed, in over-the-top statement lamps, one a pendant - unmatched would be best, because match-match does kill a room - a round contrast rug under the end of the bed. You can set the mood with the lamps, the rug and your artwork. If you use a patterned rug rather than a color block, make sure there's a color tie-in with your primary color. http://st.hzcdn.com/simgs/5221cc7704387c3c_4-8073/contemporary-rugs.jpg Try to bring in some *fun*, because while formal hotel styling is stylish, it isn't really homelike. https://i.pinimg.com/736x/97/0f/ab/970fabcdf6ead23cde0f8d2190175fe5.jpg But if its what you're going for, then you can liven things up by using ONE secondary color, and it'll be very sexy. Lighting is key - go bold and scatter mood lighting around.

How do you make it look so easy?

I was a nanny for decades. Always sound completely confident or they will eat you.

Imo.. paint the back wall a darker colour, get a couple plants, modern night table lamp, and maybe get a throw blanket with a colour that compliments the above

do something besides effing grey haha. I dont know where that trend started but it needs to stop.

Another way to go is texture. Faux-fur on the bed and chair, maybe removable wallpaper behind the bed? https://i.pinimg.com/736x/64/1e/a5/641ea55cfebf4d36c2044eaf73d76ade.jpg You can can gain depth and texture with a printed wall mural or wallpaper - antique brick, a warm grey-tinged abstract, a simple geometric. https://www.muralsyourway.com/p/simple-geometric-vector-pattern-lines-on-background-27419255/

Or even not so simple: https://rebelwalls.com/wall-murals/colors/gray

Or you can make a bolder style statement, and choose a hard-edged, single-color graphic. Don't be afraid to hang a rug or curtains, either -- anything that turns it into a cohesive statement wall will pretty much take care of the majority of your deco worries, statement finishes radiate style. :)

​

Personally, I'd have this https://www.muralsyourway.com/p/midnight-songbirds-pattern-wallpaper-102906516/ up in a heartbeat, because I love mixing strong furnishings with a sophisticated boudoir vibe. And just *imagine* the lamps!

Three to four color pops, a nice rug and a piece of art somewhere.
