Curating Calm: Above the Bed Art Ideas

Marcie, Gallery Director, Haverford

For this serene, earthy bedroom, I selected three distinct artworks to consider above the bed. Whether it’s a dreamy photograph, a sculptural wall piece, or layered abstract painting, the right artwork can truly transform the ambiance and make the bedroom feel complete.

Which piece resonates most with you?

Idea 1: David Burdeny, Ulica DłUga, Gdańsk, Poland

This photograph by David Burdeny is a unique choice for the bedroom, because it transports you to another place that feels cinematic and dreamy. The pastel tones and the meticulous composition evoke a sense of quiet nostalgia, as if capturing a moment frozen in time.

Devine’s metal wall sculpture enhances the room’s textural elements while introducing a touch of shine and dimensionality to the wall. Its sleek, metallic surface catches the natural light, creating subtle reflections that add depth and interest.
