Styling Olive Leather Beds in Loft Bedrooms

Olive leather and loft bedrooms suit each other surprisingly well. The muted green softens the angles of a sloping ceiling, sits comfortably against exposed timber and brickwork, and brings colour to a room that often relies on skylights for daylight. The key to styling it is placement first, then palette.

In this guide we explain how to position an olive leather bed beneath slopes and dormers, which wall colours and bedding work with it, how to use rugs and lamps to make an attic room feel settled, and the storage ideas that keep a loft conversion tidy. We finish with answers to the questions people most often ask when planning a loft bedroom around a coloured bed....
