Any anglophiles in our audience will definitely want to check out this list of the top 11 London bedroom décor ideas. Below, we’ll show you just how simple it is to bring Old Blighty into your bedroom.

11 Brilliant London Bedroom Décor Ideas
1. Use Wall Murals To Spotlight The Sites

Almost everyone who has a London design in their homes focuses on Big Ben. Hey, there’s nothing wrong with Westminster, but consider pasting a variety of London’s sites on your walls to add some uniqueness to your room. For instance, take a look at the animated sites that have been tastefully displayed in the above post.
Also, take note of the heavy use of whites and reds in this workstation design. As you’ll notice throughout this article, a standard way people evoke the feel of London is to intersperse bright reds with grey or white backgrounds. Not only does red add a bit of energy to your design, but it also reminds viewers of those iconic London telephone booths, soldiers, and double-decker buses.
2. Don’t Fear Greys, Blues, and Blacks

London is one of the few cities that looks even more romantic when it rains. To evoke this “glorious gloom,” don’t hesitate using darker tones like greys, blues, and blacks in your home décor. In fact, adding black elements helps suggest another one of London’s great symbols: the black taxicabs.
In the above picture, take note of how the designer contrasts white and red to great effect. The reds here aren’t all that overpowering, but they definitely make an unmistakably British impression.
3. Add A Sea-Faring Touch

As an island nation, maritime exploration has always played a crucial role in British history and identity. If you want to celebrate that “Rule Britannia” sea-faring spirit, consider using blues on your bed design like in the picture above.
If you’ve got young buccaneers at home, why not fashion their bedroom like a great English vessel? You could even add sneakily educational references to captains like James Cook, Francis Drake, and, of course, Blackbeard into your room design.

4. Who Could Ignore Big Ben?

When most people think of London, the image of Westminster’s Elizabeth Clock Tower (aka Big Ben) springs to mind. So, it’s safe to say that clocks are an iconic symbol of this capital city. Heck, now that London is a global center of finance, clocks are an indispensable part of modern life. Check out how the room above gives off this “center of the world” business feel.
5. Highlight Union Jack Colors

Hey, why should NYC get all the love? And, while we’re at it, who said red, white, and blue are only for the Yankee Doodle Dandies?
As you could see above, you could easily make an eye-catching décor with bright whites, blues, and reds without viewers mistaking your love of England for a super-sized American obsession. You could also add a bit of regal flair with allusions to the British monarchy on your pillows.
6. Welcome A Few Double-Decker Tours

If you were ever a tourist in London, then chances are you took a ride atop one of the city’s double-decker buses. To commemorate your London sightseeing journey, consider adding those bold red buses over grey cityscape murals and bedding.
7. Accentuate Brick Designs

Bricks are an extremely common element in British design, especially in big cities like London. Heck, these bricks were so commonly used in the UK capital that they’re officially named “London stock bricks” in the building business.
8. Get Playful With Red Phone Booths

Looking for a quirky pop of London scenery? Easy: paste a red telephone booth decal on one of your doors! As you could see in the shot above, you don’t need to have an entire room dedicated to London to make this fun design work.
9. Research Cartoon Outlines Of The London Skyline

You don’t always have to include foggy grey to evoke the feel of London. For instance, take a look at how effective a cartoon outline of London is in this bedding design. The white background on the bed, bricks, and furniture really helps add brightness to the overall design.
10. Enlist A Few Royal Guards

We’ve already mentioned the phone booths and double-decker buses, but who could forget the members of the Queen’s Guard. With their distinctive red coats and bearskin hats, these soldiers are easily the most recognizable on earth and a major symbol of British culture. Consider enlisting a few of these guards to protect your children from any spooky monsters that might be hiding under the bed!
11. Don’t Forget About The Pram!

Here’s an example of how to effectively use whites, blues, and reds to accentuate a nursery. You could also see how well wooden floor designs work with the Union Jack colors to give your home a colonial feel. And, of course, what would a London décor guide be without showing off the “Keep Calm & Carry On Sign” at least once!
