Bedroom Accent Wall

Bedroom, Design Plan

Thanks for the response on my Isla Grande post. If you’re thinking of heading to Panama, or want more info just email me and we can chat 🙂

So I’m working on an exciting new project that I want to share a piece from. I’ve got a client who is currently located on the East Coast, but is moving to Palo Alto in two weeks to start his job as an exec with a pretty awesome company (yup, it’s the one you’re thinking of!). He is going to be renting in a high end condo complex for about 12 months until he decides if/where he wants to buy. The key here is that while we are decorating a rental property, he wants nice furniture that can be moved into his future home.

* We’ve purchased about 75% of the furniture so I’ll have a future post sharing the plan*

For now….we’re debating on a bedroom accent wall. The complex will have any of the walls professionally painted for you (sweet bonus!), but because we haven’t seen the place in person, we are basing a lot off of pictures, floor plan, word of mouth, etc.

He’s really a huge lover of color. The main area is quite neutral, but we’re working with this blue wall color in the bedroom:

{BM Danube Blue & BM Gentlemen’s Gray}

We’re debating between painting the whole room vs accenting one wall. I’m about 99% sure which way I lean, but I thought I’d share some inspiration photos and get your opinion!  FYI: We’ve already ordered a low profile bed and dresser.

Let’s take a look…

Which do you vote…paint all walls or accent wall?!
