Olivia Munn cleverly uses this conventional color palette to create an extraordinary bedroom space

Neutrals in the home are certainly not groundbreaking; but that doesn't mean that they are not interesting. When done right, a neutral-colored space can be visually stimulating, and this is the case in Olivia Munn's bedroom.

The X-Men: Apocalypse and The Predator star, who recently tied the know with comedian John Mulaney, recently shared a video to her Instagram page in her light, airy bedroom, and it's a prime example of a neutral space with style and flair. The room features a soft, beige carpet, a wood nightstand, soft, white bedding, and a woven stool at the foot of the bed. It's a dreamy space in every sense of the word.

Neutrals remain a coveted color selection for many who want a relaxing home environment. According to experts, there are specific reasons that explain this human draw to the neutral palette in the bedroom .

' Decorating with neutrals like beige, taupe, gray, and white are inherently calming, creating a soothing environment that is perfect for winding down at the end of the day,' says designer Nina Lichtenstein . 'These colors have a gentle, understated elegance that fosters a sense of peace and tranquility.'

Additionally, 'Neutral colors are classic and never go out of style. They provide a sophisticated foundation that can evolve with your tastes, allowing you to update your decor with new accessories and accents easily.'

In order to keep the space looking visually interesting, Lichtenstein advises on a few strategies relating to materials and styling.

'Introduce a variety of textures to add depth and warmth,' she says. 'Think about using soft, plush rugs, chunky knit throws, linen bedding, and velvet cushions. Mixing materials like wood, metal, and stone can also create a rich, layered look.'

This layering can, naturally, transfer to bed linen styling.'Create a cozy and inviting bed by layering different fabrics and materials,' Lichtenstein suggests. 'Combine crisp cotton sheets [like Munn's] with a fluffy duvet, a textured quilt, and decorative pillows in varying shades and patterns. This approach not only adds comfort but also visual intrigue.'

Neutral spaces can often benefit from touches of color, too, whether that be through an accented accessory or a piece of artwork hanging above the bed.

'Use accent pieces to add pops of subtle color and pattern,' she says. 'Consider a patterned rug, a statement headboard, or decorative throw pillows. Even within a neutral palette, variations in hue and tone can create a dynamic, engaging space. Incorporate artwork and decorative items that reflect your personality and add visual interest. Black-and-white photographs, abstract paintings, and nature-inspired prints can all enhance a neutral bedroom without making it feel overdone.'

In Munn's case, we can see she has opted for a mustard-light green velvet lounge chair in her otherwise neutral space. We love this similar option from Wayfair, but for other, more accessible decor ideas, we're investing in these Munn-inspired pieces below. The crisp, neutral sheets look particularly like the ones we've noticed in her space.

One last styling tip to remember? Neutrals and natural materials go hand in hand, so Lichtenstein recommends implementing plants into a neutral bedroom.

'Bring in elements from nature to add organic beauty and texture,' she says. 'Potted plants, wooden furniture, and stone accessories can create a harmonious and balanced look. Greenery, in particular, adds a fresh and lively touch to a neutral setting.'
